Some of the uses of arabogalactan in tableting have been studied. Its action as a binding agent appears to be satisfactory. The stability of a number of tablets made with arabogalactan as the binder have been compared with similar tablets made with acacia. The results are encouraging. Arabogalactan has been partially methylated to give methyl arabogalactan. Arabogalactan acetate has been made by a new procedure.
