Evaluation of gum odina/carbopol composite mucoadhesive hydrogel on pharmaceutical performance: Focusing on potential periodontal treatment.

Antimicrobial buccal hydrogel made of polymers have gained tremendous utilisation in biomedical field. Dual drug loaded, porous materials are important areas of research for medical and pharmaceutical industries. In this regard, a series of hydrogels (F1, F2, F3) were prepared with gum odina and carbopol 940 in aqueous solution with calcium chloride as the cross linker and glycerol as plasticizer by ionotropic gelation method.

Effect of Different Ratios of Polyvinyl Alcohol-Gum Odina for the Preparation and Characterization of Biodegradable Composite Films.

This research investigates the production of biodegradable films using a combination of gum odina (GO) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with varied ratio. The study focuses on the chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of PVA-GO composite films, emphasizing how versatile and biodegradable they may be for a range of packaging applications. Solvent-cast PVA-GO films with different ratios are subjected to a methodical analytical process to determine several parameters like mechanical qualities, thermal stability, biodegradability in soil, contact angle, transparency, water vapor permeability, moisture content, thickness, density, water solubility, microstructure, and FTIR analysis.

Gum odina prebiotic induced gut modulation for the treatment of colon cancer on Swiss albino mice: By using capecitabine loaded biopolymeric microsphere.

A complex illness with a current global hazard, colon cancer has many different manifestations. The efficacy of colon cancer therapy can be affected by the bacteria in the digestive tract. It is hypothesised that novel prebiotics like Gum Odina is emerging as preventative therapy to fight chronic gut illnesses by gut microbiota modulatory therapy when compared to traditional intervention.

Optimizing light regimes for neutral lipid accumulation in Dunaliella salina MCC 43: a study on physiological status and carbon allocation.

Dunaliella salina is a favourable source of high lipid feedstock for biofuel and medicinal chemicals. Low biomass output from microalgae is a significant barrier to industrial-scale commercialisation. The current study aimed to determine how photosynthetic efficiency, carbon fixation, macromolecular synthesis, accumulation of neutral lipids, and antioxidative defence (ROS scavenging enzyme activities) of D.

Mass cultivation of Dunaliella salina in a flat plate photobioreactor and its effective harvesting.

Mass cultivation of Dunaliella salina was standardized in a flat plate photobioreactor followed by a vertical flat plate photobioreactor. Maximum biomass productivity (14.95 ± 0.
