    This paper aimed to develop and characterize oral disintegrating films (ODF) based on gelatin and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) incorporated with peanut skin extract (PSE) as phenolic compounds vehicle. Films were prepared by casting technique varying the polymer ratio (GEL:HPMC 100:0, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25, 0:100) and PSE concentration (20 and 30 g/100 g film-forming solution). Formulations with high content of gelatin presented insoluble complex possibly due to cross-linking between gelatin and polyphenols. For formulations which gelatin was in a minority or equal concentration of HPMC, the increase in the PSE concentration favored the association of rich phases in gelatin and HPMC. This also increased inter- and intramolecular bonding which led to a more compact matrix and reduction of films elongation and tensile strength around 45%. The HPMC film with PSE (20%) presented tensile strength of 26.63 +/- 1.89 MPa, elongation of 4.97 +/- 0.41%, contact angle of 67.17 +/- 0.41 degrees and disintegration time of 17.87 +/- 1.77 s. In the in vitro release profile, 80% of phenolics were released in 5 min, and in accelerated stability test the films retained 60% of the total phenolic compounds. HPMC-based film can be a good alternative to vehicle the active compounds present in peanut skin. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
