High-amylose carboxymethyl starch matrices for oral sustained drug-release: in vitro and in vivo evaluation.
High-amylose corn starch, that contains 70% of amylose chains and 30% of amylopectin, has been used to obtain substituted amylose (SA) polymers. Tablets have been prepared by direct compression, i.e. dry mixing of drug and SA, followed by compression, which is the easiest way to manufacture an oral dosage form. Until now, their controlled-release properties have been assessed only by an in vitr...
متن کاملStarch-free grewia gum matrices: Compaction, swelling, erosion and drug release behaviour.
Polysaccharides are suitable for application as hydrophilic matrices because of their ability to hydrate and swell upon contact with fluids, forming a gel layer which controls drug release. When extracted from plants, polysaccharides often contain significant quantities of starch that impacts upon their functional properties. This study aimed to evaluate differences in swelling, erosion and dru...
متن کاملHydration and swelling of amorphous cross-linked starch microspheres.
Hydration of cross-linked starch microspheres, commercially available as a medical device, was investigated using a multi-method approach. We found that the uptake of water is accompanied by substantial swelling and changes of the polymer structure. Sorption calorimetry provided information about thermodynamics of water sorption, revealed presence of isothermal glass transition and absence of h...
متن کاملSwelling behaviour and controlled drug release from cross-linked κ-carrageenan/NaCMC hydrogel by diffusion mechanism.
We studied a model system of controlled drug release using beta-carotene and κ-carrageenan/NaCMC hydrogel as a drug and a device, respectively. Different concentrations of genipin were added to crosslink the beta-carotene loaded beads by using the dripping method. Results have shown that the cross-linked beads possess lower swelling ability in all pH conditions (pH 1.2 and 7.4), and swelling ra...
متن کاملAn Investigation into the Effect of Carbopols on the Release of Propranolol HCl from Tablet Matrices
In this study, attempts were made to evaluate the effect of various acrylic acid based Carbopols on the release profile of a beta-adrenoreceptor blocking drug, propranolol HCl, from matrix-type tablets invitro. For this purpose, tablets containing 160 mg of propranolol HCl along with various amounts of Carbopols 934 (C934), 971 (C971), 974 (C974) and Pemulen (Pem) were prepared using the wet gr...
