Pectin - Ethanolamine Graft Copolymer Hydrogel for Ointment and Transdermal Patches Consist of Tridax Procumbens L. Ethanol-Water Extract as Antiseptic and Antifungal Agent

Authors(1) :-Prashant B. Sutar

Currently research has been carried out for the development of transdermal drug delivery systems. Specific transdermal drug delivery system is chemically modified pectin based hydrogels. This modified gel is used to carry ethanol-water extract of Tridax procumbens L. as antiseptic, antifungal. Pectin forms gel with crosslinking agents like divalent or multivalent cations, glutaraldehyde etc. Transdermal patches and ointment with petroleum wax made from the cross-liked modified pectin gel and the leaf extract of plant in ethanol-water were loaded through diffusion method. In the current study an attempt has been made to improve the properties of the pectin gels by graft copolymerization with ethanolamine and the swelling properties were modified by varying concentration of crosslinking agent, glutaraldehyde and used for various biomedical applications,. Antiseptic and antifungal activity of loaded hydrogel were studied.
