This article presents a comparative study of the physico-chemical properties of babool (Acacia nilotica) and karaya (Sterculia urens Roxb.) gums. The study found significant differences in properties such as protein and nitrogen content, water holding capacity, and viscosity. However, there were no significant differences in values such as true density, bulk density, angle of repose, refractive index, coefficient of friction, and fat content. The article discusses the moisture content, physico-chemical properties, and functional properties of both gums, highlighting their suitability for various applications in industries such as food, medicine, and therapeutics.
