The present invention relates to a wet granulation method comprising contacting a material to be granulated with a granulation liquid containing gum arabic. The method may be used, for example, to improve the dissolution kinetics of granulated materials such as metal salts such as gum arabic and / or organometallic salts. Further, the present invention is a granular material containing gum arabic obtained by the method of the present invention, wherein the individual granules constituting the granular material are porous, preferably having an average porosity of about 15% to about 75%. Relates to a granular material. The present invention also provides a composition comprising a particulate material for the production of a liquid such as, for example, a beverage, and a particulate material and composition of the present invention for use as a medicament and / or as a dietary supplement. |
