Matrix-based tablets using 40 %w/w grewia gum were prepared by direct compression to contain cimetidine as novel drug. The formulations were compared with similar formulations using hydroxypropyl methylcelluose (Methocel), gum arabic, carboxy methylcellulose (Blanose), or ethyl cellulose (Ethocel) as polymer matrix. Also binary composite matrices containing grewia gum and the reference polymers...

The objective of this study was to examine the influence of tragacanth gum concentrations on physical and mechanical properties of beverage emulsions formulated with arabic gum and orange oil. Beverage emulsions are oil-in-water emulsions and used to enhance juice-like appearance, to provide flavor and deliver functional ingredients (omega-3 fatty acids) to the beverages. Stability of beverage ...

BACKGROUND The constituents in a food emulsion interact with each other, either physically or chemically, determining the overall physico-chemical and organoleptic properties of the final product. Thus, the main objective of present study was to investigate the effect of emulsion components on beverage emulsion properties. RESULTS In most cases, the second-order polynomial regression models w...

foaming conditions of the red beet (beta vulgaris l) puree were optimized using response surface methodology (rsm) with respect to arabic gum concentrations (0.01 – 0.4% w/w), red beet puree (40 _ 60% w/w),egg white concentration( 5 _ 15% w/w) and whipping time (3 – 9 min) for minimum foam density and foam drainage volume as response variables. foams were prepared from various pulp concentratio...

in this study, effects of guar and arabic gum on the viability of two common probiotic, lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacterium lactis, in frozen yogurt during 60 days were investigated. results of survival evaluation of probiotics showed that although during storage time bacteria counts decreased significantly, this product could maintain 107 cfu/gr of probiotic at the end of storage. ma...

Linoleic acid was encapsulated with a soluble soybean polysaccharide, gum arabic, or a mixture of both together with maltodextrin, and the oxidation process of the encapsulated acid was measured at 37 degrees C and at a relative humidity of 12%. The soybean polysaccharide was more effective for encapsulating the acid and suppressing the oxidation of the encapsulated acid than gum arabic. A mixt...

This research is aimed at producing gum from cashew tree latex, which can act as substitute for gum Arabic. The method used include drying and size reduction of the exudates gum, sieving of the gum to remove impurities, dissolution of the gum in distilled water, filtration to remove polysaccharide waste and finally concentration and stability of the gum. Glycerine, starch and Zinc oxide are som...

Abstract Consumption of gluten-free products is the best possible option for patients with celiac disease. The development cookies may provide a suitable alternative individuals who are gluten-intolerant. purpose this research was to assess use hydrocolloids as gluten substitutes in cookies. Commercially available (gum Arabic and xanthan gum) freshly extracted (cress seed, fenugreek, flaxseed, ...
