storage temperatures that can be experienced in tropical and temperate climates. Ideally, however, they should be stored at temperatures not exceeding 25°C and not exposed to temperatures above 40°C for long periods. At low temperatures, samples of medium-chain triglycerides may become viscous or solidify. Samples should therefore be well melted and mixed before use, although overheating should be avoided.

Glycerides, mixed decanoyl and octanoyl Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Medium-chain triglycerides have been used in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations including oral, parenteral, and topical preparations.
In oral formulations, medium-chain triglycerides are used as the base for the preparation of oral emulsions, microemulsions, selfemulsifying systems, solutions, or suspensions of drugs that are unstable or insoluble in aqueous media, e.g. calciferol. Mediumchain triglycerides have also been investigated as intestinalabsorption enhancersand have additionally been used as a filler in capsules and sugar-coated tablets, and as a lubricant or antiadhesion agent in tablets.
In parenteral formulations, medium-chain triglycerides have similarly been used in the production of emulsions, solutions, or suspensions intended for intravenous administration.In rectal formulations, medium-chain triglycerides have been used in the preparation of suppositories containing labile materials. In cosmeticsand topical pharmaceutical preparations, medium-chain triglycerides are used as a component of ointments, creams, and liquid emulsions.
Therapeutically, medium-chain triglycerides have been used as nutritional agents.Diets containing medium-chain triglycerides are used in conditions associated with the malabsorption of fat, such as cystic fibrosis, since medium-chain triglycerides are more readily digested than long-chain triglycerides. Medium-chain triglycerides have been particularly investigated for their use in total parenteral nutrition (TPN) regimens in combination with longchain triglycerides.
Although similar to long-chain triglycerides, medium-chain triglycerides have a number of advantages in pharmaceutical formulations, which include better spreading properties on the skin; no impedance of skin respiration; good penetration properties; good emollient and cosmetic properties; no visible film on the skin surface; good compatibility; good solvent properties; and good stability against oxidation.
