Abstract

The Foamability and emulsification capacity was analyzed for the Enriched surface active saponins of HBAR, HSLR, HSQER, HSQE25-30%, synthetic surfactant SDS, and Tween 80. The enriched saponin extracts showed positive results for enriched saponins presence. The results for foam height showed the enriched saponins HBAR with the highest foam height of 23.6 cm - 17.6 cm. HBAR, being the highest foamability saponin and SDS, 17.6 cm and T80 the least, 17.3 cm.HBAR and HSLR indicated stable R% values at R5% and R15% at 86.5% - 81.2% and SDS, and T80 at 56% and SDS at 55.5%. R15% revealed decreased values at 57.3% to 27.6% for the saponins, SDS and T80 34.6%-32.9%. The EI0 and EI24 showed that saponins values ranged from HBAR 79% to HSQE 25-30% 30% and HSLR 32% to HSQE 25-30% 25%.The nanoemulsion polydispersity index, except for the saponins crude extract BAR 905.7 nm and SLR 629.5 nm, the hydroxylated saponins HBAR, HSLR, HSQER, HSQE 25-30% z-average were between 8.29 nm to 99.35 nm. The studied low-concentration saponin solution has shown viable and efficient foamability, foam stability, emulsification and alternative applicable surface properties.
