Isolation and partial characterization of delayed releasing starches of Colocasia species from Jharkhand, India

Screening of polysaccharides from tamarind, fenugreek and jackfruit seeds as pharmaceutical excipients

“…[4]. Currently, a huge numbers of polysaccharides have been isolated from various commonly available plant sources [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. These plant polysaccharides have been used as potential pharmaceutical excipients in tablets, capsules, matrix-controlled systems, microparticles, nanoparticles, ophthalmic preparations, gels, creams, emulsions, suspensions, etc.…”

Characterization and evaluation of smart starch from Kyllinga nemoralis

“…In addition, the particle shape and size may have an influence in the packing down behavior of materials during die filling and compression. The particle size and shape of the starch may be responsible for the density values [13,34]. The Carr's index was found as 22.77 for KNSS.…”

“…The clear solution obtained was filtered into a 100 mL standard volumetric flask and made up to the volume with Millipore water. The mineral contents were estimated using this solution [13].…”

Physicochemical and tablet properties of Cyperus alulatus rhizomes starch granules

“…The process described by Deepika et al was used to determine the swelling and solubility power [9]. A 1% (w/v) suspension of CASG was weighed into a graduated centrifuge tube with distilled water.…”

“…A 2% CASG dispersion was prepared in distilled water according to the method of Deepika et al [9]. It was heated in a boiling-water bath for 30 min with continuous stirring.…”
