ABSTRACT
The dog’s tablet reasearch that fulfills the disintegration time 15-30 minutes, it has been making
with the B-complex vitamin as the active substance and corn starch as disintegrant. The choosing of the
right disintegrant, can help the tablet to having the disintegration time based on the dog’s physiology
condition. The aim of this research is to find out the effect of the disintegrant concentration variation to
the disintegration time of tablet and also to find out concentration from the optimum formula of the B-
complex vitamin tablet.
The starch corn (amylum maydis) concentration used in this research i.e. 2 % (formula I), 4 %
(formula II) and 6 % (formula III). The following is the result of disintegration time from three formulas
(26,8+0,74) minute in the formula I, (21,57+1,18) minute in the formula II and (18,17+0,44) minute in
the formula III. Based on the statistic test result by one way ANOVA method and continued to LSD with
the 95 % trust level, found that inter-formula is significant different because its sig value is smaller than
0,05.
The rise of the corn starch (amylum maydis) as the disintegrant causes the tablet disintegration
time getting low. The corn starch (amylum maydis) concentration as the disintegrant from the optimum
formula is 4% from formula II because it has disintegration time tablet values, which approaches to
reference product.
Keywords: concentration, starch corn (amylum maydis), disintegrant, dog’s tablet, tablet disintegration
time.
