TL;DR: Guar gum reduced serum digoxin concentration during the early absorption period, but a similar amount of digoxin was found in 24 h urine whether given with or without guar gum.
Abstract: The effect of guar gum on the absorption of digoxin and phenoxymethyl penicillin was studied in a double blind study in 10 healthy volunteers. Guar gum reduced serum digoxin concentration during the early absorption period, but a similar amount of digoxin was found in 24 h urine whether given with or without guar gum. Both the peak penicillin concentration and the area under the serum curve were significantly reduced by the gum.

TL;DR: The systems were shown to undergo phase separation, and the variations in rheological properties have been discussed in the context of their phase behavior and the relative rates of the phase separation and gelation processes.
Abstract: The thermal and rheological properties of sago starch have been studied in the presence of various concentrations of locust bean gum and guar gum of various molecular masses. At the concentrations studied (<1%) the galactomannans gave rise to only a very slight increase in the gelatinization temperature (up to 0.6 °C), and the gelatinization enthalpy remained constant within experimental error. For the low molecular mass galactomannans, depending on the concentration, the storage modulus, G‘, of the mixtures remained constant or actually decreased, and tan δ remained very low (0.01−0.03 at 0.1 Hz), indicating strong elastic gels. For the higher molecular mass samples G‘ increased significantly; however, the loss modulus, G‘ ‘, increased proportionally to a greater extent, and at 1% galactomannan tan δ was ∼0.20 at 0.1 Hz, indicating a reduction in elastic character. The systems were shown to undergo phase separation, and the variations in rheological properties have been discussed in the context of their ...

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a mixture of starch, guar gum and citric acid was extruded at a temperature of 150 ÂC and screw speed of 180 Ârpm, and properties of the extrudates such as bulk density, expansion ratio, apparent viscosity and resistant starch content were measured with different concentrations of guar gums.
