emulsions. They may also be used as solubilizing agents for a variety of substances including essential oils and oil-soluble vitamins, and as wetting agents in the formulation of oral and parenteral suspensions. They have been found to be useful in improving the oral bioavailability of drug molecules that are substrates for p-glycoprotein.(1)

Polysorbates are also widely used in cosmetics and food products. See Table IV.

8 Description

Polysorbates have a characteristic odor and a warm, somewhat bitter taste. Their colors and physical forms at 258C are shown in Table V, although it should be noted that the absolute color intensity of the products may vary from batch to batch and from manufacturer to manufacturer.






w + x + y + z = 20 (Polysorbates 20, 40, 60, 65, 80, and 85)

w + x + y + z = 5 (Polysorbates 81)

w + x + y + z = 4 (Polysorbates 21 and 61) R = fatty acid


Functional Category

Emulsifying agent; nonionic surfactant; solubilizing agent; wetting, dispersing/suspending agent.


Applications in Pharmaceutical Formulation or Technology

Polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters (polysorbates) are a series of partial fatty acid esters of sorbitol and its anhydrides copolymerized with approximately 20, 5, or 4 moles of ethylene oxide for each mole of sorbitol and its anhydrides.
