The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has increased over the years due to a high number elderly people and sedentary lifestyles. Most synthetic drugs available lead serious side effects compared horticultural crops. A lot plants have been reported as natural therapeutic for therapy worldwide. This review attempts compile different crops in Nigeria their antidiabetic properties mellitus. evaluated...

Hydrocolloids, often called gums that generally contain many hydroxyl groups and may be polyelectrolytes .Foams are colloidal systems in which tiny air bubbles are dispersed in an aqueous continuous phase. Many processed foods consumed daily are liquid or solid foams, such as the head of soft drinks and beer, whipped cream, mousses, meringue, bread and ice cream. The utilization of these gums d...

Recovery of cellulose fibres from paper mill effluent has been studied using common polysaccharides or biopolymers such as Guar gum, Xanthan gum and Locust bean gum as flocculent. Guar gum is commonly used in sizing paper and routinely used in paper making. The results have been compared with the performance of alum, which is a common coagulant and a key ingredient of the paper industry. Guar g...

In complex emulsions, viscosity or viscosity-associated sensory attributes such as creaminess are important for quality assessment and product differentiation. Two sets of emulsions with fat or locust bean gum content being varied at seven levels were developed; the two emulsions at each level had similar apparent viscosity. Additionally, sugar concentration was kept constant either with respec...

The aim of the present study was to apply design of experiment (DOE) to optimize floating drug delivery of tapentadol hydrochloride. Tapentadol hydrochloride is a synthetic opioid used as a centrally acting analgesic and effective in both experimental and clinical pain. The half-life of the drug is about 4 hours and oral dose is 50 to 250 mg twice a day. For optimization 3(2) full factorial des...

The rheological behavior of galactomannans in concentrated solutions was examined by using dynamic viscoelasticity measurements. Concentrated solutions of three galactomannans, guar gum, tara gum, and locust bean gum were prepared with an ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride as the solvent. Each galactomannan solution showed angular frequency dependence curves of the storage modulu...
