The gel-forming polysaccharide of psyllium husk (Plantago ovata Forsk)

Carbohydrate Research, 2004
The physiologically active, gel-forming fraction of the alkali-extractable polysaccharides of Plantago ovata Forsk seed husk (psyllium seed) and some derived partial hydrolysis products were studied by compositional and methylation analysis and NMR spectroscopy.

Fabrication and Cytocompatibility Evaluation of Psyllium Husk (Isabgol)/Gelatin Composite Scaffolds

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2019
Psyllium husk or isabgol contains xylan backbone linked with arabinose, rhamnose, and galacturonic acid units (arabinoxylans). In this study, we demonstrate the fabrication and characterization of a macroporous three-dimensional (3D) composite scaffold by mixing psyllium husk powder (PH) and gelatin (G) in different ratios, viz.100 PH, 75/25 PH/G, and ...

Suppression of Psyllium Husk Suspension Viscosity by Addition of Water Soluble Polysaccharides

Journal of Food Science, 2016
Abstract Psyllium seed husk is an insoluble dietary fiber with many health benefits. It can absorb many times its weight in water, forming very viscous suspensions, which have low palatability and consumer acceptance. We report here a novel approach for decreasing its viscosity, involving inclusion of a soluble polysaccharide in the ...

Formulation of Turmeric-Tamarind Jelly Using Psyllium Husk

An International Journal Tourism and Community Review
The objectives of this study were:  1) to determine the acceptance of color, aroma, texture, and taste of turmeric-tamarind jelly candy with the addition of psyllium husk; and 2) to identify the composition of the selected turmeric-tamarind jelly candy product. The research employed experimental methods, hedonic tests, and ranking tests. Three variants

Gastroretentive floating matrix tablets of cephradine based on psyllium husk

Bioinspired, Biomimetic and Nanobiomaterials, 2019
Sustained-release gastroretentive floating matrix tablets of cephradine were prepared for better patient compliance. Eight different tablets were prepared by using two natural polymers, psyllium husk powder (F1–F4) and xanthan gum (F5–F8), through the wet granulation technique.

Characterization of edible biocomposite films directly prepared from psyllium seed husk and husk flour

Food Packaging and Shelf Life, 2019
Abstract The mucilage obtained from Plantago seeds is a promising raw material for producing edible films or coatings; however, its complete separation from the seeds is rather difficult. To avoid the difficulties of the extraction and taking advantage of the strong interfacial interactions between the seed husk and the mucilage, we examined the ...

PSYLLIUM HUSK AS A RETARDANT POLYMER FOR BUCCAL FILMS

2009
The aim of present study was to evaluate buccal mucoadhesive films for controlled release of chlorhexidine to treat oral Recurrent Aphtous Stomatitis (RAS). Mono-layered mucoadhesive buccal films, containing 5 mg chlorhexidine base for local delivery to the oral cavity, were formulated by C.S.E. technique.

Psyllium husk II: effect on the metabolism of apolipoprotein B in African green monkeys

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1992
Dietary psyllium's ability to reduce low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is presumably mediated by increased LDL catabolism and/or reduced LDL synthesis. To distinguish between these possibilities, apolipoprotein B (apo B) metabolism was studied in adult male African green monkeys consuming one of three semipurified diets: low-cholesterol ...
