Many chemical modifications of starch are realized in organic (mostly methanol) phase, allowing high degrees of substitution (DS). Some of these materials are used as disintegrants. To expand the usage of starch derivative biopolymers as…

This work aimed to select tablet diluent of Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) Mansf. extract tablet. Three tablet diluents, including microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), spray-dried rice starch, and spray-dried lactose were used. MCC exhibited…

This study investigated the phase stability of liquid mixtures and composite gels properties of de-structured waxy potato starch (DWPS) and whey protein isolate (WPI). The DWPS are physically-modified starches treated at 120, 140 and 150 °C…

PHARMATRANS SANAQ offers excipients and active ingredients of outstanding quality and performance. With our research & development skill and tradition, we commit to study innovative technological solutions providing excipients…

Andrographolide (AGL) is the major component of Andrographispaniculata. The poor water solubility and low dissolution strongly affect its oral absorption. Liquisolid technology has been used to improve its dissolution and oral…

The role of amylose content in electrospinng starch nanofibres is well understood, but that is not the case for the roles of the molecular structures of amylose and amylopectin. Here, correlations between starch molecular-structure…

Acid-modified tapioca starches (AMTSs) possessed good compressibility but showed poor particle flowability for preparing tablets by the direct compression method. The aims of this work were to prepare and characterize AMTS agglomerates…

The 12th APV PBP World Meeting took place from 28 – 31 March 2022 in Rotterdam. There was a poster section at the event where really interesting scientific posters were presented. Therefore we asked the presenting scientists if we could…

Crosslinked carboxymethyl rice starch (CLCMRS), prepared via dual modifications of native rice starch (NRS) with chloroacetic acid and sodium trimetaphosphate, was employed to facilitate the disintegration of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose…

Parenteral depot systems can provide a constant release of drugs over a few days to months. Poly-(lactic acid) (PLA) and Poly-(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) are the most commonly used polymers in the production of these systems. Finding…
