the use of natural biopolymer of chitosan as biodegradable beads for local antibiotic delivery: release studies
نویسندگان
چکیده
background chitosan is a naturally occurring biopolymer which has been widely used in a variety of biomedical applications including local antibiotic delivery due to its excellent mechanical properties, biodegradability and biocompatibility. beads are spherical, porous carriers which are prepared from various materials including chitosan. objectives the current study aimed to fabricate a new controlled delivery system for local anti-infective treatment and to study its release behavior. materials and methods twenty beads were prepared from 1% or 2% chitosan solutions and immersed in vancomycin (vm) or teicoplanin (tn) solutions. the antibiotic release kinetics was determined by linear regression analysis supposing first order kinetics. results immersion for 3 h resulted in significant increase in the total tn release that differed from 0.5 h of immersion, except for the 1% beads immersed in vm. increasing the chitosan concentration significantly increased the total release and antibiotic load of beads. the release of tn was more delayed compared to that of vm, which allowed a gradual release beyond 3 days. the half-life (mean ± sem) of both types of tn-containing beads was significantly extended for 3 h immersion in comparison to 0.5 h immersion (26.1 ± 5.9 vs 10.9 ± 1.0 and 17.0 ± 2.1 vs 5.1 ± 1.9; p < 0.001). however, neither increasing the chitosan concentration, nor immersion time did result in any significant increase in the release of vm. conclusions the current study demonstrated an improved control of tn release impregnated in beads. it can be concluded that chitosan beads might be considered as a novel carrier for tn delivery to infected bone for local anti-infective therapy.

Insulin-loaded biodegradable chitosan nanoparticle was prepared by the polyelec-trolyte complex formation method. The prepared nanoparticles were in the size of 110 nm and had high entrapment (91.0%) capacity. The transdermal nanoinsulin was characterized by in vivo hypoglycemic effects. Plasma glucose was decreased to the range of 80.34 to 96.74 mg/dl, and insulin levels were in...
متن کاملThe controlled release of a drug from biodegradable chitosan gel beads.
Chitosan (CS) forms a gel in solutions with a pH above 12, and the gelation occurs at pH of about 9 in 10% amino acid solutions. In this paper, we investigated the enzymatic degradation and the drug release profile of this novel CS gel beads. The degradability of the CS gel beads was affected by the CS properties, e.g. the degree of deacetylation. The release of prednisolone (PS), as a model dr...
