Popis:	Enset and potato starches have been compared as binding agents and disintegrants in tablets made with paracetamol and chloroquine phosphate. Tablet crushing strengths, friabilities and disintegration times have been measured. The results show that enset starch can be used both as a binding agent and disintegrant. It has a better binding ability than potato starch, giving tablets of lower porosity. However because of this, tablets containing enset starch disintegrate more slowly.
