Abstract : cumulative release at 12 h. For F7, the reported kinetic fitting was highest for the Higuchi model (R² = 0.996431). On the basis of the combined physicochemical, floating and release characteristics, F7 was identified as the most suitable laboratory formulation. The findings support further investigation of ginger-extract in-situ floating gels as gastroretentive herbal delivery systems; however, botanical authentication, complete batch composition, stability, in-vivo gastric-retention studies and clinical evaluation are necessary before therapeutic or commercial claims are made.

Keywords : Ginger Extract, Gastroretentive Delivery, in-Situ Gel, Floating System, Sodium Alginate, HPMC, Sustained Release and UV–Visible Spectrophotometry.
