suspended or dissolved in a suitable liquid (typically oil-based).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Encapsulation:<\/strong> The two gelatin ribbons are passed through rotating dies.\u00a0The fill material is simultaneously injected between the two gelatin ribbons, and capsules, which are then cut and sealed, are formed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Capsule Drying and Polishing: <\/strong>The capsules are dried out in chambers or tunnels that remove moisture.\u00a0They are then cleaned and polished for a glossy finish.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow
