The development of new strategies and biomaterials to augment the healing process is essential to overcome the emerging challenges encountered in treating and managing chronic wounds. The present study aimed to develop and characterize hemicellulose-based ( seed) 3D composite (sponges) and evaluate their suitability for wound healing and . The composite sponge formulations (CF) were fabricated by blending () seed hemicellulose with other polysaccharides, followed by crosslinking using glutaraldehyde (as crosslinker) and freeze-drying.

A tablet is a compact dosage form that includes both the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and various excipients, where a binder acts as an excipient, imparting cohesive quality in the powdered material. The present study aimed to extract polysaccharides from plant samples; Plantago ovata seeds, Plantago ovata husk, Lallemantia royleana, Ocimum basilicum and Acacia nilotica and to investigate their efficacy as tablet excipients. The wet granulation method was adopted for tablet formulation.
