Application
Maltodextrin, a polymer chain composed of D-glucose units linked by α (1,4) bonds, is used in the development of encapsulation and nanencapsulation vehicles for use in the food industry. Maltodextrin is used as a protein Maillard-induced conjugation agent for improved solubility and foaming activity. As a sugar-matrix forming agent, maltodextrin is used in the development of orally disintegrating tablets (ODT).

The recent challenge in orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) manufacturing encompasses the compromise between instantaneous disintegration, sufficient hardness, and standard processing equipment. The current investigation constitutes one attempt to fulfill this challenge. Maltodextrin, in the present work, was utilized as a
