Preparation of Fine Cobalt Particles in Wet Process

Effect of Process Variables on Growth Kinetics of Lactose Particles in a Wet Spray Fluidized Bed Granulator

Stabilisation of Wet Protein Foams Using Starch Nano-Particles

Protein isolate is used in the food industry in order to process and stabilise food foams. Thereforethere has been a great deal of interest and research in order to understand the effect of processingparameters on the functional properties of the isolate. The major purpose of this research is to studythe foamability of the different proteins - starch nano-particle system. The results from exper...

Polymer Encapsulation of Fine Particles by a Supercritical Antisolvent Process

Coating and encapsulation of fine particles with polymer using a supercritical antisolvent (SAS) coating process was investigated in this research. Synthesized submicron silica particles were used as host particles and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA), a biodegradable polymer used for controlled release of drugs, was chosen as the coating material. In the SAS coating process a suspension of si...

Theophylline-Ethylcellulose Microparticles: Screening of the Process and Formulation Variables for Preparation of Sustained Release Particles

Objective(s) The aim of this study was to formulate and evaluate microencapsulated controlled release preparations of theophylline using ethylcellulose as the retardant material with high entrapment efficiency. Materials and Methods Microspheres were prepared by water-in-oil-in-oil (W/O1/O2) emulsion-solvent diffusion (ESD). A mixed solvent system consisting of acetonitrile and dichloromet...
