Abstract: We improve the upper bounds of the following inequalities proved in [H. Alzer and N. Batir, Monotonicity properties of the gamma function, Appl. Math. Letters, 20(2007), 778-781]. �egin{equation*} expleft(-frac{1}{2}psileft(x+frac{1}{3} ight) ight)<frac{Gamma(x)}{sqrt{2pi}x^xe^{-x}}<expleft(-frac{1}{2}psi(x) ight), end{equation*} and ${\displaystyle }$ frac{1}{2}psi'(x+1/3))<log x-psi(x)<frac{1}{2}psi'(x).${\displaystyle }$ Here $Gamma$ is the classical gamma function and $psi$ is the digamma function.
