Sugar Globules: The Spherical Sweetness with Pharmaceutical Uses

Sugar globules, also known as sugar pellets, are small, free-flowing, dry spherical masses made entirely of sucrose. They are widely used in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, homeopathy, and food processing.  Sugar globules are considered to be high-quality non-pareil seeds with several uses.

Properties of Sugar Globules

Sugar globules are available in a range of particle sizes, from 12 to 120 mesh (125 μ to 1680 μ). The size of the particles determines the rate at which they dissolve. These smaller particles tend to dissolve faster than larger particles.

It is important for the quality of the sugar globules to be either translucent or opaque in nature, indicating that they are free from impurities.

Applications of Sugar Globules

Sugar globules are primarily used majorly in the pharmaceutical industry and nutraceutical applications as explained below:

• Uses in the Pharmaceutical Industry: In the pharmaceutical industry, sugar globules are used as a carrier for homeopathic remedies. The sugar globules are impregnated with the homeopathic remedy, which is then administered orally. The small size and spherical shape of the sugar globules make them easy to handle and dispense, ensuring accurate dosing of the remedy.
• Uses in the Food Industry: Sugar globules are also used in the food industry as a sweetener. They are commonly used in the production of candy, sprinkles, and other confectionery items. The small size and free-flowing nature of the sugar globules make them ideal for sprinkling onto baked goods or mixing into the frosting and other toppings.

Regulatory Compliance of Sugar Globules

In terms of regulatory compliance, there are several aspects to consider that includes the following:

1. International Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia: Sugar globules manufactured for use in the pharmaceutical industry must comply with the standards set by the International Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia (IH). The IH specification sets standards for the size, shape, and quality of the sugar globules.
2. Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP): Sugar globules manufactured for use in the pharmaceutical industry must also comply with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). GMP ensures that the manufacturing process is controlled and monitored to ensure the safety, quality, and efficacy of the product.
3. Kosher and Halal: Sugar globules are certified as Kosher and Halal, indicating that they meet the dietary requirements of certain specific communities. 

Storage And Shelf Life of Sugar Globules

Sugar globules should be stored in a cool, dry place and protected from light and moisture. Exposure to light and moisture can cause the sugar globules to clump together and lose their free-flowing properties. Proper storage will ensure that the sugar globules remain free-flowing and easy to handle.

The shelf life of sugar globules is typically two years from the date of manufacture. Beyond this time, the sugar globules may start losing their properties.
