LIPOSOMAL

GABA POWDER (50% / 70%)

Liposomal GABA Powder encapsulates high-purity γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA, CAS 56-12-2) — a naturally occurring amino acid and the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter precursor found throughout the human body — within a stable phospholipid bilayer structure. Available at 50% and 70% active loading grades, this ingredient transforms the highly polar GABA molecule into a precisely dosed, protected liposomal delivery system, enabling a broad range of relaxation, stress management, and sleep quality supplement formulations.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

KEY ADVANTAGES

Dual-Grade Flexibility (50% & 70%)

Two loading grades allow formulators to choose between lower-cost mainstream formats (50%) and high-density, compact dosage forms (70%), serving the full spectrum of product tiers.

Enhanced Formulation Versatility

Liposomal encapsulation unlocks water-dispersible formats — functional beverages, stick packs, effervescent tablets, and gummies — that are difficult to achieve with raw GABA powder alone due to hygroscopicity concerns.

Active Integrity Protection

The phospholipid bilayer acts as a physical barrier, shielding the encapsulated GABA from moisture, temperature fluctuation, and excipient incompatibility during manufacturing and shelf storage.

Precise, Consistent Dosing

Spray-dried liposomal technology converts liquid liposomal preparations into a free-flowing powder, delivering consistent GABA content per unit weight across every production batch.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

1. Evening Relaxation & Sleep Support Capsules

Primary application for the 70% grade, enabling compact, high-dose sleep and relaxation capsules for the premium supplement market.

2. Functional Beverage Mixes & Stick Packs

Liposomal powder format is particularly suited for evening wellness drink sachets, relaxation teas, and functional water mixes where standard GABA powder poses hygroscopicity challenges.

3. Gummy & Soft Chew Formats

Water-dispersible liposomal GABA integrates cleanly into gummy and soft chew matrices, expanding product format options for the mainstream sleep and relaxation market.

4. Multi-Ingredient Nootropic & Calm Stacks

Ideal for combination formulas pairing GABA with L-theanine, magnesium glycinate, ashwagandha, or melatonin in premium stress and sleep support blends.

TECHNICAL FAQ

Q1: Why use liposomal GABA instead of standard GABA powder in supplement formulations?

A: Standard GABA powder is highly hygroscopic and can present caking and flow challenges during manufacturing. Liposomal encapsulation converts GABA into a stable, free-flowing powder with improved moisture resistance, unlocking functional beverage, stick-pack, gummy, and effervescent formats that are difficult to achieve with raw GABA.

Q2: Does the 70% loading grade affect dispersion or stability?

A: No — dispersion depends on phospholipid shell integrity, not active loading density. Both 50% and 70% grades pass the same DLS and EE% verification, confirming stable liposome formation upon rehydration.

Q3: What handling precautions are needed during manufacturing?

A: Blend at room temperature; avoid prolonged high-shear mixing. Keep compression forces within standard ranges for tableting. Standard capsule and gummy manufacturing processes are fully compatible. Store bulk in sealed, nitrogen-flushed containers in a cool, dry environment to prevent moisture uptake.
