Moringa Seed Protein: Advancements and Drug Delivery Prospects

Author: UDAYKUMAR PATIL, SUHAIL NOOLKAR, FIRDOS PAKHALE, JIDNYASA PANTWALAWALKAR, NAMDEO JADHAV
Abstract: The need of the current article is to review the advancements in physicochemical and biological properties of Moringa Seed Protein (obtained from Moringa oleifera seeds, family- Moringaceae) along with drug delivery applications. The exact physicochemical composition and coagulation mechanism of moringa protein are surrounded by a cloud of mystery with contradictory findings. Considering reported physicochemical analysis comprising dialysis, and gel permeation chromatography, it is a hydrophobic proteinous cationic polymer of molecular weight 6 to 14 kDa having isoelectric point 10.9. On the other hand, it has also been reported for antimicrobial, hemagglutinating, and anticoagulant activity. Chiefly, its contribution in improvising solubility of poorly soluble drugs and amorphous form stabilization has been very well enunciated. Moreover, moringa seed protein has been established as an extended-release polymer for tablets. Being a natural, cheap, and biodegradable macromolecule, it holds a promise for pharmaceutical applications widely.
Keyword: Moringa protein, water purification, biological activities, drug delivery.
