The main objective of the research work is to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of olmesartan medoxomil by complexation with HP β-Cyclodextrins. The inclusion complexes were prepared by kneading method and solvent evaporation method. The prepared complexes were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The FTIR spectra o...

This paper describes the development and characterization of starch microspheres for being used as drug delivery carriers in tissue engineering applications. The developed starch microspheres can be further loaded with specific growth factors and immobilized in scaffolds, or administrated separately with scaffolds. Furthermore and due to the processing conditions used, it is expected that these...

The aim of this study was to prepare fast-dissolving tablets of meloxicam after its complexation with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and to investigate the effect of using different superdisintegrants on the disintegration and release of meloxicam from the tablets. A complex of meloxicam with β-CD was prepared by spray drying and then compressed in the form of tablets utilizing the direct compression te...

Calcium-bound phosphoryl oligosaccharides (POs-Ca) were prepared from potato starch. Their solubility and in situ absorbability as a calcium source were investigated by comparing with the soluble calcium compounds, calcium chloride and calcium lactate, or insoluble calcium compounds, calcium carbonate and dibasic calcium phosphate. The solubility of POs-Ca was as high as that of calcium chlorid...

Cassava starch has been widely explored as film forming material, however its hydrophilicity restricts application. Hydrophobic material such modified can be used in the elaboration to improve quality. This study aims examine effect of cassava concentration on physical, barrier, and mechanical properties edible films. A completely randomized design was with 5 concentrations at 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%,...

The functional properties of alkali soluble chicken meat protein/starch blend were studied in three phases. In the first phase chicken breast meat powder was solubilized with alkali in a 2  2 factorial experiment. The results from microscopic appearance, microscopy, SEM, consistency, solubility, X-ray diffractometry, SDS-Page showed changes in microstructural, textural and molecular weight of ...

Properties of irradiated starches have been outlined in this review . ')' -radiation generates free radicals on starch molec ules which cause changes in starch properties . The inten sity of free radicals is dependent upon starch moisture content , and temperature and duration of storage. Increasing dosages of -y-irradiation creates increasing intensities of free radicals on carbohydra tes. The...

The design and development of modified cassava starch from Indonesia for film enteric coating polymer applications were conducted in this study. was physically by heating at 70° to produce pregelatinized starch, followed chemically esterification phthalate. Pregelatinized phthalate formulated with variations concentration. results showed a lower solubility pH 1.2 higher alkaline where the optim...

Sago starch is an underutilized due to its low functionality in the formulation of food products. Starch modification can enhance and functional properties such as solubility resistant content, respectively. The sago was treated by microwave heat treatment with two different pre-treatment which were washing (WMHT) or cold-soaking (SMHT). modified starches exhibit better water (95 °C), oil bindi...

Background and Objectives: Studies on packaged food by activated biopolymer starch films containing antimicrobial material is interesting field of food. Science This study investigates the effect of chitosan and rosemary essential oil on properties of starch films and peanut were packaged in them. Materials and Methods: In this study, composite films based on starch containing 0, 2, 4, 6 and...
