Starch as drug carrier

In recent years, the pharmaceutical industry has seen a shift towards a greater emphasis on biologics as drugs. The study has carried out to determine the criteria to produce a great drug carrier. This study involves the investigation of different amount of drugs towards its solubility that can be related to efficiency. Tests that are conducted are on the effect different pH solution on the solubility of the drug, Starch gellike substance was being produced as the drug carrier. Based on the tests carried out, the suitability of starch as drug carrier is determined. These Experiment is divided into three parts which are the test on different amount of drug, different type of pH and producing the drug carrier using starch. The product were analyst by observation method and the results will be recorded thus justification will be made. The results obtained from the experiment can summarized as follow. The increasing of amount of drug increased the solubility, the increasing of pH number decreased the time for drug to settle down and starch can be concluded suitable to use as drug carrier. The objectives of the study were successfully achieved
