Abstract: | Hydroxypropyl and pregelatinized hydroxypropyl starch were evaluated as disintegrant and binder in tablet formulations. The study showed that the use of pure hydroxypropyl starch showed no advantage as a disintegrant or binder over the actually available tablet ingredients. Pregelatinized hydroxypropyl starch showed some good disintegrating properties and could be used as a binder in wet granulation. |
