Materials and methods

Objective of study:
metabolism
Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Principle of test: Sucrose esters were added to artificial gastric juice at a concentration or 0.4 or 1.25 mg/mL and incubated for up to 5 hrs. HPLC was then used to analyze the amount of sucrose esters degraded by the artificial gastric juice.
- Short description of test conditions: The artificial gastric juice had a pH of 1.2, and the incubation was done at 37 degrees C.
- Parameters analysed / observed: HPLC was then used to analyze the amount of sucrose esters degraded by the artificial gastric juice.
GLP compliance:
yes

Results and discussion

Main ADME results
Type:
metabolism
Results:
Very little of the test substance was broken down by artificial gastric juice with 81.7-99.8% of the sucrose ester remaining after 5 hrs.

Any other information on results incl. tables

81.7% of sucrose monopalmitate remained after 5 hrs incubation in the artificial gastric juice, and 85% of sucrose monostearate remained after 5 hrs incubation. In the experiment done with S-1170, the compound most broken down by the artificial gastric juice was sucrose monopalmitate at 82.7% remaining, and the compound least broken down by artificial gastric juice was sucrose diester with 99.8% remaining after 5 hrs of incubation.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Small amounts of sucrose esters are digested by the stomach, but most is transported to the duodenum and small intestine without being degraded.
Executive summary:

Sucrose esters were added to artificial gastric juice at a concentration or 0.4 or 1.25 mg/mL and incubated for up to 5 hrs. HPLC was then used to analyze the amount of sucrose esters degraded by the artificial gastric juice. 81.7 -99.8% of the test substance was not degraded by the artificial gastric juice, thus indicating that most of the sucrose esters pass into the duodenum and small intestine unchanged.
