green tea extract, lozenges, acacia, physical characteristic, direct compressionAbstract
Formulation of green tea extract lozenges (Camellia sinensis) have been studied, the lozenges were made by direct compressing method. The purpose of this research is to know the effect of acacia as binding agent to the physical characteristic of the tablets. Fillers were combined using wet granulation with acacia with concentration of 1%, 2%, and 3% respectively. Furthermore, the filler granuls mixed with green tea extract. Physical characteristic of granul including flow rate, angle of repose, particle size distribution, bulk density, tapped density, compressibility index, and moisture content. Then the extract granuls were pressed into tablet on a hydraulic press with diameter 16,71 mm and pressure of 4 ton, and physical characteristic of lozenges were examined. Evaluation on the green tea extract lozenges result including tablet size, tablet weight, hardness, friability, and dissolving time. The result of those evaluations showed that green tea extract lozenges fulfilled the requirement of tablet physical characteristics. The result showed that the increase of acacia concentration will increase hardness and prolonged dissolving time but the increase of acacia concentration will decrease the friability of lozenges.
