| Popis: | Tablet coating material Tamarind pectin CH–TP films Adhesive force strength Film rolling effect a b s t r a c t Tablet coating is the most useful method to improve tablet texture, odour and mask taste. Thus, the present investigation was aimed at developing an industrially acceptable aqueous tablet coating material. The physico-chemical, electrical and SEM investigations ensures that blending of Tamarindus indica (Linn.) pectin (TP) with chitosan gives water resistant film texture. Therefore, CH–TP (60:40) spray coated tablets were prepared. The evaluation of CH–TP coated tablets showed enhanced adhesive force strength (between tablet surface to coat) and negligible cohesive force strength (between two tablets) both evaluated using texture analyzer. The comparison of CH–TP coated tablets with Eudragit coated tablets further supported superiority of the former material. Thus, the findings pointed towards the potential of CH–TP for use as a tablet coating material in food as well as pharmaceutical industry. |
