Abstract

BACKGROUND: Pregelatinizing is processed to modify structure of starch by heating a certain temperature. Increasing of temperature causes the starch to absorb water and swell quickly in order to obtain a larger particle size. Larger particle size will improve the flowability and compressibility of the granules. Pregelatinized taro starch is used as diluent tablets with wet granulation method.

AIM: The objective research was to determine the effect of increasing pregelatinized taro starch temperature as diluent on compressibility and comprimability granule of thiamine hidrochloride compression.

METHODS: Pregelatinized taro starch is made by heating the suspension of starch at 50°C, 60°C and 70°C for 10 minutes and then dried. Pregelatinized taro starch is used as a filler of Thiamine Hidrocloride tablets which made by wet granulation method. Test wereperformed for each formula such as quality tests of granules and tablets physical properties and assay.

RESULT: Granule compressibility evaluation results show that the formula 1, 2, and 3 qualified with compressibility value is 7.9941 respectively; 6.9929; and 5.9950%. From the results of the one-way ANOVA analysis of the compressibility obtained sig. 0,000 less than 0.05, then there is a significant difference between formula one with the other formulas.

CONCLUSION: It shows the difference in temperature affect the compressibility pregelatinized taro starch. The higher the temperature of pregelatinized taro starch, produces tablets with low compressibility.
