    The disintegrant potential of native starches of five new cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz.) varieties developed by the Crops\nResearch Institute of Ghana (CRIG) was studied in paracetamol tablet formulations. The yield of the starches ranged from 8.0\nto 26.7%. The starches were basic (pH: 8.1ââ?¬â??9.9), with satisfactory moisture content (ââ?°Â¤15%), swelling capacity (ââ?°Â¥20%), ash values\n(<1%), flow properties, and negligible toxic metal ion content, and compatible with the drug. The tensile strength (
