摘要
The powder prepared from natural sponge Luffa aegyptica Mill family Cucurbitaceae was studied for its disintegrant activity with corn starch BP (CS) as the standard. The natural sponge powder (NSP) showed promising results considering the parameters used in evaluation i.e. weight uniformity, friability, tensile strength and disintegration time of tablets prepared for evaluation.
