Effects of formulation on flowability of selected herbal powders using compendial methods and powder flow analyser

This study was aimed at investigating the effects of formulation on flowability of selected herbal powders which include Labisia pumila, Ortosiphon stamineus, Eurycoma longifolia and Andrographis paniculata using compendial methods and a recently available powder flow analyser. The material properti...
