A binder holds powders together to form granules and also provides the cohesiveness
required for binding of the granules under compression to form a tablet. Some natural
excipients are currently available for pharmaceutical formulation. Aim of this study was
to extract the mucilage from different plants and to evaluate them as a binder. Here an
effort was made to investigate the efficacy of mucilage obtained from seed of Fenugreek
and Flax as tablet excipient. APrecipitation of soaked seed in acetone technique was
developed to optimize the extraction of mucilage from the seeds of Fenugreek and Flax
plants. Seed of both plants have been extracted by conventional method. The extracted
mucilage has been evaluated for various physicochemical properties. Tablets were
manufactured using extracted mucilage as a binding agent and comparison was made
against the tablets prepared with mucilage as standard binder on studying standard
parameters like diameter, thickness, hardness, friability and disintegration. Mucilage could
be used as a binding agent for at low concentrations. This can be used for sustaining drug
release from tablets.
