ABSTRACT

The developing interest in normal polymers for different applications has brought tTamarind seed polysaccharide (TSP) into the spotlight. Gotten from Tamarindus indica seeds, TSP’s special properties make it a convincing biopolymer. This complete audit investigates TSP’s attributes, extraction techniques, and far reaching applications. Featuring its part in drug delivery, wound healing, and then some, the audit highlights TSP’s biocompatibility, mucoadhesive nature, and adaptability. While TSP offers various advantages, challenges like extraction hardships and variable organization exist. Future possibilities in drugs include progressed drug delivery system, biocompatible supplements, and creative oral definitions. The survey likewise underscores the requirement for thorough clinical preliminaries, protected innovation contemplations, and joint effort for TSP’s fruitful interpretation into certifiable applications. In general, TSP emerges as a promising biopolymer with significant industry-wide potential.

Keywords: Application, Binder, Sustained and controlled release, Physical and chemical modification, Tamarind seed polysaccharides.
