Abstract
Process for the manufacturing of gelatin products with improved stability against storage under hot and humid conditions and/or aldehydes characterized in that at least one additive, preferred glutamic acid, tryptophan, or nitrilotrismethylene phosphonic acid or a mixture thereof is incorporated into the gelatin before forming the final product as usual as well as the gelatin compositions used and the products obtained by the process.
