Date Mucilage as Co-Polymer in Metformin-loaded Microbeads for Controlled Release
Date mucilage (Phoenix dactylifera) was characterized and evaluated for use as a polymer in controlled release metformin-loaded microbeads. Date mucilage was characterized using proximate composition and elemental analysis. Metformin-loaded (1% w/w) microbeads were formed by the ionotropic gelation...
