Abstract

This study investigated the texture analysis and bioadhesive of hydrogel prepared by Poloxamer 407 (P407) and crosslinked Poly (vinyl alcohol); cPVA as hydrogels. All hydrogels were characterized by texture analysis. The bio-adhesive force between the pig’s skins and hydrogel was assessed using TA.XT plus texture analyzer. It is expected that the blend polymers can provide suitable properties of hydrogel. The formulations were prepared by varying the ratio between P407 incorporated with cPVA. The results indicated that all hydrogel bases were clear soft gels. These properties were dependent on the ratio of the two polymers. The high ratio of cPVA caused more mechanical and bioadhesive hydrogel in appearance. The firmness and cohesiveness of the hydrogel decreased when the p407 decreased whereas the cPVA proportion in the formulation increased, where cPVA enhanced bioadhesive of the hydrogel system. The research also showed the mixture of P407 and cPVA that was suitable for the development in sport massage herbal gel
