| Abstract: | The products
from natural sources have become an integral part of human health care system
because of some side effects and toxicity of synthetic drugs. Applications of
natural polymers in pharmacy are comparable to the synthetic polymers and they
possess wide scope in food and cosmetic industries. The present paper gives a
state-of-the-art of available information on naturally available polymers and
their versatile uses. |
