Abstract

Background: The present review focuses on the critical piece of different polymers as gelling experts in the enumerating of emulgels. The concentrate moreover accomplishes the novel procedure for availability and appraisal parameters of emulgels. Methods: Late advances for the conscious use of gelling administrators in arrangement of various emulgels are consolidated. A variety of new polymers are evolving these days which are showing multi works basically as thickening agents and emulsifying agents. The new polymers have remarkable property of gellation that is useful in the formulation of stable dispersed systems. Research and overview works of various specialists were altogether considered and joined into the present study. Findings: Types, uses, method of preparation and a few evaluation tests for emulgels are given in this review. The use of gelling agents either alone or in combination in various emulgel formulations were also represented. Conclusions: The application of various gelling agent polymers in emulgel preparation and their numerous advantages provides the formulation scientists the wide choice of polymers for use in other pharmaceutical formulations. The favourable physical and rheological properties of emulgels with greater shelf life and better patient compliance than other delivery systems are useful in the formulation of topical dosage forms

Highlights

  • Gels are new class of semisolid estimation outlines made by ensnarement of significant measure of liquid and hydro-alcoholic liquid in an arrangement of colloid solid particles like inorganic substances or common polymers of trademark or made origin [1,2]

  • The new gelling agent polymers possess the property of gellation that is useful in the formulation of stable systems by reducing interfacial and surfacial tension thereby increasing the viscosity of the liquid phase [3]

  • Emulgels are nothing but emulsions that may be of water-in-oil or oil-in-water type which when blended with gelling agents gets jellified
