Tragacanth gum

Overview

Tragacanth gum is an orally active anionic composite polysaccharide and multifunctional biomaterial. Tragacanth gum exhibits biocompatibility, mucoadhesion and renoprotective effects, and effectively promotes wound closure and tissue healing. Tragacanth gum can be isolated from Astragalus gummifer . Tragacanth gum acts as an emulsifier and drug delivery carrier, and is also widely used in fields such as 3D scaffolds, tissue engineering and green nanoparticle preparation. High doses of Tragacanth gum may induce reversible forestomach squamous epithelial hyperplasia in mice, but show no mutagenic or carcinogenic activity. Tragacanth gum is commonly used in studies related to diseases including systemic candidiasis, rheumatoid arthritis and osteosarcoma.
