Products in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Emulsions

Luctoman® is a special grade of Guar Gum, specifically developed for the Pharmaceutical industry. Guar Gum is a natural vegetable polymer, and it is obtained by refining and pulverizing the endosperm of the Guar seed - “Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba”. The use of Guar Gum as a Pharmaceutical aid has increased significantly over the last few years. The material has been successfully used as a tablet binding and disintegrating agent; in peptic ulcer therapy; jelly formulations; bulk laxatives; appetite depressants; emulsions and suspensions; lotions and creams, and as a viscosifying and stabilizing agent. Some Pharmaceutical formulators have produced pharmaceutically elegant and therapeutically efficient products, using Guar Gum as an aid, while others have not taken advantage of this versatile gum’s unique properties.
