Formulation and hardness evaluation of tablets containing citrus limon and Hylocereus polyrhizus powder using D-optimal mixture design

The powder of mixed fruits that are Lemon (Citrus limon) and Red Pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus) was used as a nutritional supplement in tablet form for nutraceutical application. D-optimal mixture experimental design (D-Optimal MED) was employed to investigate the influence of different components o...

description The powder of mixed fruits that are Lemon (Citrus limon) and Red Pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus) was used as a nutritional supplement in tablet form for nutraceutical application. D-optimal mixture experimental design (D-Optimal MED) was employed to investigate the influence of different components on the response hardness of the tablet. For tablet formulation, magnesium stearate, A (0.2-1.0% w/w), menthol, B (0.2-1.0% w/w), lemon powder, C (1.0-10.0 w/w), maltodextrin, D (5.0 -10.0) and glucose, E (37.5-53.1%) are the variables while red pitaya powder and preservative are fixed components. The experimental data were used to analyze analysis of variance (ANOVA) and to develop a polynomial regression model for tablet hardness in terms of the five design factors considered in this study. D-Optimal MED predicted the hardness of the tablet at 8.5 kg/cm2. The results showed that the best mixture was the formulation that included 0.66% A, 0.74% B, 6.15% C, 7.61% D and 44.34% E, with the actual hardness of the optimized tablet recorded at 8.581 kg/cm2 (R2 = 0.9925). The study demonstrated the potentiality of mixed fruit tablets as a nutritional supplement with therapeutic properties for general consumers well-being.
