Animal Diet Formulation with Floating Price

In the process of milk production, the highest cost relates to animal feed. Based on reports provided by the experts, around seventy percent of dairy livestock costs included feed costs. In order to minimize the total price of livestock feed, according to the limits of feed sources in each region or season, and also the transportation and maintenance costs and ultimately milk price reduction, o...

Formulation of Gastroretentive floating microparticles for Ofloxacin

In the present study an attempt was made to prepare alginate floating microparticles by ionotropic gelation method with calcium carbonate (CaCO3) 1% w/v in gelation medium used as gas-forming agent for oral delivery of Ofloxacin. Chitosan was used to enhance the drug encapsulation efficiency. Various physiochemical properties such as particle size, shape, in vitro buoyancy and drug release was ...

Diet formulation and choice of enteral diet.

Once it has been decided to provide nutritional support via the enteral route the best formulation to meet the nutritional needs of the individual patient must be selected. A large number of enteral diets are now commercially available, and Table 1 summarises the different categories available. Until recently, controversy existed as to whether enteral feeds formulated and prepared in the hospit...

Cefpodoxime Proxetil Floating Microspheres: Formulation and In Vitro Evaluation

      The objective of the present study was to develop floating microspheres of cefpodoxime proxetil in order to achieve an extended retention in the upper GIT, which may result in enhanced absorption and thereby improved bioavailability. The microspheres were prepared by non-aqueous solvent evaporation method using polymers such as hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC K 15 M), ethyl cellulo...

formulation and in vitro evaluation of ketoprofen gastric floating tablet

Effect of formulation parameters on the drug release and floating properties of gastric floating two-layer tablets with acetylsalicylic acid.

Floating dosage forms of acetylsalicylic acid, used for its antithrombotic effect, were developed to prolong gastric residence time and increase bioavailability. In the two-layer tablet formulation, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) of high viscosity and an effervescent mixture of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate formed the floating layer. The release layer contained the drug, direct table...
