Abstract
The emulsifying property of grewia gum in arachis oil emulsion was evaluated. The gum was extracted by maceration, filtration, precipitation and drying techniques. The gum was used at 0.1 to 0.4% w/v to stabilize arachis oil emulsion containing 7.5% w/v acacia. The globule size, globule number and viscosity of the emulsion were the parameters used to evaluate the stability of the emulsion. There was a significant difference (P Keywords : grewia gum, acacia emulsion, evaluation Journal of Pharmaceutical and Allied Sciences , Vol. 7 No. 2 (2010)
