Irradiation depolymerized guar gum as partial replacement of gum Arabic for microencapsulation of mint oil.
Carbohydr. Polym. 90(4) , 1685-94, (2012) Spray dried microcapsules of mint oil were prepared using gum Arabic alone and its blends with radiation or enzymatically depolymerized guar gum as wall materials. Microcapsules were evaluated for retention of mint oil during 8-week storage during which quali... |

Modification of hydroxypropyl guar gum with ethanolamine.
Carbohydr. Polym. 90(2) , 988-92, (2012) A new guar gum derivative containing amino group was synthesized through nucleophilic substitution of p-toluenesulfonate activated hydroxypropyl guar gum with ethanolamine. For the preparation of p-toluenesulfonate esters hydroxypropyl guar gum, the results s... |

[Bio-based pharmaceutical polymers, possibility of their chemical modification and the applicability of modified polymers].
Acta Pharm. Hung. 82(4) , 138-54, (2012) Different types of polymers are widely used in biomedical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic purposes. Their applications are curbed, if the polymers can not break down by the body or if the polymer itself is harmful or decompose to harmful material. Authors provid... |

Consumption of guar gum and retrograded high-amylose corn resistant starch increases IL-10 abundance without affecting pro-inflammatory cytokines in the colon of pigs fed a high-fat diet.
J. Anim. Sci. 90 Suppl 4 , 278-80, (2012) Increases in dietary intake of viscous and nonviscous soluble fiber are reported to improve bowel health. However, related biological mechanisms are not very clear. This study was conducted to examine if colonic inflammation would occur in a typical Western d... |

Folic acid conjugated guar gum nanoparticles for targeting methotrexate to colon cancer.
J. Biomed. Nanotechnol. 9(1) , 96-106, (2013) It was envisaged to develop surface modified Guar Gum Nanoparticles (GGNP) with Folic acid (FA) charged with methotrexate (MTX) to target the colon specifically. The MTX loaded FA functionalized GGNP (MTX-FA-GGNP) have been prepared by emulsion crosslinking m... |
