Beloit, WI 53511 Website: www.SheffieldBioScience.com Self Lubricating Excipients The LubriTose ™ line of excipients are integrated co-processed systems designed for direct compression, high speed tableting operations which simplifies the tabletting process even further by eliminating the need for adding a separate lubricant to the powder blend, just prior to compression. Co-processing the directly compressible binding agent with a lubricant enhances the performance of the individual components while eliminating the limitations typically encountered with using Magnesium Stearate as a lubricant.
