Abstract

AIM: This study aimed to make corncobs the basic material for the manufacture of microcrystalline cellulose.

METHODS: Manufacture of corncob cellulose microcrystals (CCMs) by isolating alpha-cellulose from corncobs, then hydrolyzed with HCl 2.5 N. The yield of CCMs of 14.51% can be used as orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) and has similarities with Avicel as standard comparison.

RESULTS: Both organoleptic results were pH 5.6 and 6.54; drying shrinkage 3.33% and 4.39%; total ash content 0.17% and 0.02%; and water solubility 0.9% and 0.12%. Furthermore, the real specific gravity is 0.317 and 0.306 g/cm3, incompressible density is 0.379 and 0.375 g/cm3, the true density is 1.291 and 1.206 g/cm3, Hausner index is 1.195 and 1.225, compressibility index is 19.55 and 22.55%, and porosity is 75.5 and 74.6%.

CONCLUSION: Captopril ODT tablet preparations with CCM as filler have almost the exact tablet evaluation results compared to Avicel and to meet the requirements.
