1. EVALUATION OF MODIFIED STARCHES AND MUCILAGE DISPERSIONS OBTAINED FROM IPOMOEA BATATAS L. LAM (CONVOLVULACEAE) AS BULK EXCIPIENTS IN CHEWABLE TABLET FORMULATIONS
ABSTRACT
Increasing attention has been paid to incorporating hydrocolloids into starch-based products due to their unique functional properties and bio-safety. The aim of this work was to determine the suitability of modified starch and mucilage dispersions obtained from Ipomoea batatas...
2. EVALUATION OF TABLETING AND COMPRESSIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF NATIVE AND MICROCRYSTALLINE STARCHES DERIVED FROM DIGITARIA IBURUA
ABSTRACT
Acid hydrolyzed starch produces microcrystalline starch (MCS) with improved functional properties in terms of flowability or compressibility. The aim of this study was to investigate the binder, disintegrant and compressional properties of native and modified starches derived f...
3. EVALUATION OF TABLETING PROPERTIES OF NATIVE AND MODIFIED STARCHES, DERIVED FROM SOLENOSTEMON ROTUNDIFOLIUS, AS TABLET BINDER AND DISINTEGRANT
ABSTRACT
The aim of this research was to study the tableting properties of Solenostemon rotundifolius starch (SRS) and modified forms for use as pharmaceutical excipient by wet granulation method of tablet production in paracetamol formulation. The physicochemical properties of native a...
4. EVALUATION OF MODIFIED FINGER MILLET STARCH (Eleusinecoracana L.) AS FILLER/BINDER IN DIRECT COMPRESSION
ABSTRACT
Starch modifications are a means of altering the structure and affecting the hydrogen bonding in a controllable manner to enhance and extend their application. There are different methods for modification of starch such as chemical modifications which include stabilization, cro...
