Recently, industries have started using many plant-based products because they are low in cost and contain natural low-fat ingredients. The food industry has stopped using synthetic compounds because most of them are hazardous to health. To create new products, they are using naturally occurring substances that are safe and gluten-free. As these substances undergo tissue regeneration, they are used in the biomedical industry for the discovery of drugs. Industries have started using plant-based polysaccharides called mucilage. This plant mucilage is a very good polysaccharide that offers many health benefits and properties, which is useful in both food and biomedical applications. The quality of compounds acquired through correct formulation has been improved by the addition of mucilage in numerous dietary compounds, according to numerous research. Mucilage from plants is largely utilized in the food business. Plant mucilage is used mostly in the food industry. This mucilage is a thick, gluey substance that many plants and some microorganisms produce. It is a water-soluble, edible adhesive found in bakery items, fermented products, and other foods. Plant mucilage is also highly beneficial in the biomedical field, especially in tissue regeneration such as scaffolds.
