Abstract:
In this study anti acid tablet was prepared from Acacia polyacantha gum.Glucuronic acid was prepared by ion exchange technique and magnesium glucurnate was prepared by adding magnesium bicarbonate to eluate.
Physicochemical characterization of Acacia polyacantha and magnesium glucuronate shows the moisture content of gumsample was 11.94% and for magnesium glucuronate was 12.90%, the total ash and inorganic content of magnesium glucuronate 1.83% is less than in gum sample, the gum sample and magnesium glucuronate is levorotatory, the viscosity of magnesium glucuronate is slightly lower than gum sample.
The gum sample is acidic, when the magnesium glucuronate neutral, and mineral composition shows the all cations values decreased in magnesium glucuronate compared with gum sample except Ca and Mg are increased.
