Diabetes is a common metabolic disease in the world that has many adverse effects. Olibanum gum resin (from trees of the genus Boswellia) has traditionally been used in the treatment of various diseases such as diabetes. The aim of this study was the comparison of Olibanum gum resin effect with placebo on the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Inclusion criteria was diabetic patients with fasting bl...

Three new monoterpenes, olibanumols A (1), B (2), and C (3), and three new triterpenes, olibanumols H (4), I (5), and J (6), were isolated from olibanum, the exuded gum-resin from Boswellia carterii BIRDW. Their structures including the absolute configuration were determined by chemical and physicochemical evidence. Among the constituents, olibanumols A (1), H (4), and I (5), and isofouquierol ...

The objective of the study is to evaluate Olibanum resin, a natural resin polymer as matrix polymer for controlled release tablets and to design matrix tablets of diclofenac for controlled release. Matrix tablets of diclofenac were formulated employing Olibanum resin in different proportions of drug and polymer and the tablets were evaluated for drug release kinetics and mechanism. Two diluents...

the possibility of fractional replacement of gelatin in pastille with either soluble, fractions or whole persian gum and the effects of olibanum gum addition on some sensory and physical properties of pastille were evaluated. findings revealed that persian gum either alone or along with high levels of sucrose could not result in gelation, whereas its insoluble part addition led to some gelation...

In the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, olibanum (frankincense) is commonly recommended as a part of the traditional popular medic cine for the treatment of some abdominal disease. Olibanum is used in Misurata as a chewing gum and is swallowed for the treatment of dyspepsia.
