Oral Dissolve Film

(ODF)

Technology

Technology Overview

Orally Dissolving Film (ODF) is a next-generation oral delivery dosage form based on hydrophilic polymer film-forming materials. Active nutritional ingredients are uniformly dispersed in an ultra-thin film with a thickness of only ~0.1mm. It dissolves completely in saliva within 15–30 seconds without water or swallowing, representing a breakthrough formulation innovation in pet nutrition and health care.

Delivery Mechanism

Active ingredients penetrate directly into systemic circulation via the buccal and sublingual mucosa, bypassing gastric acid degradation and hepatic first-pass metabolism, greatly reducing active loss and enabling faster onset.

Rapid mucosal absorption phase:

Progressive GI release phase:

Ingredients not absorbed in the oral cavity enter the gastrointestinal tract with saliva for sustained and steady release, prolonging duration of action and covering full-cycle nutritional needs.

Unlike traditional tablets and soft chews that rely entirely on gastrointestinal digestion and absorption, ODF adopts a two-stage delivery mechanism of rapid oral mucosal absorption + sustained gastrointestinal supplementation, fundamentally restructuring the nutrient absorption pathway:

Core Formulation Advantages

Superior bioavailability:

Bypassing first-pass metabolism and GI digestive loss, the absorption efficiency of active ingredients is 3–5 times higher than traditional oral dosage forms, delivering stronger efficacy at the same dose and reducing nutrient waste.

Stress-free administration:

Dissolving instantly on contact, no water required, and impossible to spit out — it fully resolves feeding difficulties such as medication refusal, struggle and stress in dogs and cats, greatly reducing the threshold and operational pressure for pet owners.

Precise dosing:

ach single strip is independently formed with a dosage error controlled within ±1.5%, avoiding weighing errors and uneven intake common with powders and liquids, ideal for precise supplementation for young, senior and post-operative pets.

Global distribution-ready:

Individually sealed aluminum foil packaging is moisture-proof and oxidation-resistant. Lighter and more storable than liquid formulations with low long-haul transit loss, it fits cross-border warehousing and global distribution.

AmorPet Exclusive Technical Innovations

Built on 20 years of human pharmaceutical formulation expertise, AmorPet has made pet-specific upgrades based on general ODF technology:

Sandwich multi-layer structure:

A three-layer design of palatable layer – core functional layer – palatable layer. The outer layers with highly palatable ingredients quickly guide pet acceptance, while the core layer stably encapsulates active ingredients, boosting both palatability and efficacy stability.

Micron-scale emulsification & dispersion:

Through nano-homogenization and microencapsulation technology, active ingredients are processed into micron-scale carriers for molecular-level uniform distribution, further improving dissolution speed and absorption efficiency.

Molecular taste masking:

Targeting the natural bitterness and off-flavor of functional ingredients, cyclodextrin inclusion complexation technology is applied to mask undesirable tastes without damaging activity, significantly improving voluntary acceptance by dogs and cats.
