Title

CHARACTERIZATION OF SELECTED NATURAL POLYMER AS PHARMACEUTICAL EXCIPIENT

Abstract

The objective of the present study was to find out the potential of naturally available Moringa oleifera gum (MG) as an excipient in pharmaceutical formulations. MG obtained from stem of the plant Moringa oleifera Lam. belonging to family Moringaceae. Polysaccharide was isolated by using distilled water and precipitated with ethyl alcohol. The product was screened for presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, flavonoids, steroids, amino acids, terpens, oils and fats, tannins, phenolic compounds, micrometric properties, swelling index, flow behavior, and microbial studies were also studied. Result revealed that using water based extraction method, MG exhibited good flow properties. It had good swelling index. The pH was found to be 6.21± 0.61, indicating that the gum is slightly acidic or near neutral. MG was quickly forms a viscous colloidal dispersion in warm water and insoluble in organic solvents. MG has microbial load within specified limits for natural excipients and the pathogenic organisms were absent. Hence, it was concluded that the extracted MG has promising properties for application as pharmaceutical excipient.

Key Words

Moringa gum, swelling index, pharmaceutical excipient.
