Xanthan gum is a natural polysaccharide used as a thickener, stabilizer, and suspending agent in liquid pharmaceutical formulations such as syrups and suspensions. By increasing viscosity, it prevents particle sedimentation and contributes to the stability and uniformity of medicines. It is also applied in topical products like gels, creams, and lotions to create a smooth and consistent texture.
One of the key applications of xanthan gum is in controlled drug-release systems, where it forms a gel matrix that enables gradual release of the active ingredient. Its properties—such as being non-toxic, stable against pH and temperature variations, and easily soluble in water—make it an ideal choice for both oral and topical medications.
Ziboxan® xanthan gum from Deosen Biochemical offers high stability and strong viscosity even at low concentrations, making it an excellent option for sensitive pharmaceutical formulations. As a specialized producer of xanthan gum, the company provides a wide range of grades.
