Investigations on interpolymer complexes of cationic guar gum and xanthan gum for formulation of bioadhesive films

The present study was aimed at evaluating the possible use of inter polymer complexed (IPC) films of xanthan gum (XG) and cationic guar gum (CGG) for formulating domperidone bioadhesive films. Formation of bonds between -COO¯ groups of XG and -N(+)(CH(3))(3) groups of CGG was evident in the FTIR spectra of IPC films. Bioadhesive strength of the films was evaluated employing texture analyser. Wa...

Cationic guar gum polyelectrolyte complex micro particles

Aim: The aim of this study was to organize polyelectrolyte complex microparticles (PECMP) of cationic guar gum and xanthan gum. Materials and Methods: The complex formed was loaded with diclofenac sodium (DS) as a model drug. The prepared microparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), differential scanning colorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (S...

Effect of Palatable Guar Gum Formulation on Serum Lipids

This clinical study reports that the ingestion of 15 gm of Guar gum daily for a period of one moth decreased the total serum cholesterol level by 9.4% and triglyceride level by 4%.

Viscosity and Acid Stability in Low-fat Mayonnaise with Varying Proportions of Xanthan Gum and Guar Gum

Ethanol-resistant ethylcellulose/guar gum coatings--importance of formulation parameters.

Recently, ethylcellulose/guar gum blends have been reported to provide ethanol-resistant drug release kinetics from coated dosage forms. This is because the ethanol insoluble guar gum effectively avoids undesired ethylcellulose dissolution in ethanol-rich bulk fluids. However, so far the importance of crucial formulation parameters, including the minimum amount of guar gum to be incorporated an...
