Porous starch as tablet excipients for β-carotene delivery: Impact of amylose content on structural stability and release performance.
Porous starch is widely recognized as a promising carrier for bioactive compounds, but its potential as a tablet excipient remains unexplored. Herein, porous starches prepared from waxy maize (PWMS, 4% amylose), 50% (PHA50) and 75% (PHA75) high-amylose maize were enzymatically prepared and used as excipients to fabrica...
