Formulation and Evaluation of Bupivacaine-Loaded Glutaraldehyde-Crosslinked High Molecular Weight Chitosan Microspheres
Purpose: To develop a chitosan microsphere carrier system of bupivacaine for buccal administration. Methods: Chitosan microspheres loaded with bupivacaine were prepared by emulsification technique based on glutaraldehyde cross-linking and drug-loaded chitosan microsphere were coated with polyglycolic acid (PGA) film The formulated microspheres were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), diff...
متن کاملIsoniazid loaded chitosan microspheres for pulmonary delivery: Preparation and characterization
The objective of the present study was to entrap isoniazid, an Antitubercular drug, in cross linked chitosan matrix and study in vitro lung deposition of powdered chitosan microspheres using Andersen cascade impactor. Ionic cross linker Tripolyphospate was used to make cross linked chitosan microspheres to achieve sustained drug release. Chitosan microspheres were prepared by spray drying metho...
متن کاملImprovement of Antiamoebic Activity of Rokitamycin Loaded in Chitosan Microspheres
Rokitamycin is a new macrolide containing 16 carbon atoms, strongly inhibitory for Acanthamoeba castellanii, an opportunistic protozoa of humans which cause primarily amoebic keratitis and chronic, but fatal, amoebic granulomatous meningoencephalitis. Chitosan microspheres were prepared as carriers to obtain a controlled release of rokitamycin, able to improve the antiamoebic activity of this d...
متن کاملPreparation and antioxidant properties of selenium nanoparticles-loaded chitosan microspheres
Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), as a special form of selenium (Se) supplement, have attracted worldwide attention due to their favorable properties and unique bioactivities. Herein, an eco-friendly and economic way to prepare stable SeNPs is introduced. SeNPs were synthesized in aqueous chitosan (CTS) and then embedded into CTS microspheres by spray-drying, forming selenium nanoparticles-loaded...
متن کاملStomach-specific anti-H. pylori therapy. I: Preparation and characterization of tetracyline-loaded chitosan microspheres.
The main objective of the study was to develop a stomach-specific drug delivery system to increase the efficacy of tetracycline against Helicobacter pylori. Chitosan microspheres were prepared by ionic cross-linking and precipitation with sodium sulfate. Two different methods were used for drug loading. In method I, tetracycline was mixed with chitosan solution before the simultaneous cross-lin...
