“…Its cold-water solub is influenced by the galactose/mannose molar ratio. Modified through functionaliza (carboxymethylation, hydroxyalkylation, or esterification), guar gum is tailored for medical applications, enhancing its mechanical features and reducing aqueous solub Guar gum and its derivatives are particularly suitable for oral drug delivery due to heightened stability across a large pH range [76][77][78][79].…”
