Encapsulation of Alcohol Dehydrogenase in Mannitol by Spray Drying
نویسندگان
چکیده
The retention of the enzyme activity of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) has been studied in various drying processes such as spray drying. The aim of this study is to encapsulate ADH in mannitol, either with or without additive in order to limit the thermal denaturation of the enzyme during the drying process. The retention of ADH activity was investigated at different drying temperatures. When mannitol was used, the encapsulated ADH was found inactive in all the dried powders. This is presumably due to the quick crystallization of mannitol during spray drying that resulted in the impairment of enzyme protection ability in comparison to its amorphous form. Maltodextin (dextrose equivalent = 11) was used to reduce the crystallization of mannitol. The addition of maltodextrin increased ADH activity and drastically changed the powder X-ray diffractogram of the spray-dried powders.

Particles of poorly water-soluble drugs were prepared to develop a dry powder inhaler (DPI). Spray freeze-drying (SFD) technique using a four-fluid nozzle (4N), which has been developed by authors, was applied in this research. Ciclosporin and mannitol were used as a poorly water-soluble model drug and a dissolution-enhanced carrier, respectively. The organic solution of ciclosporin and aqueous...

The effects of excipient crystallinity and water content on the physical stability of salmon calcitonin (sCT) in a spray-dried powder for inhalation have been investigated. sCT was dissolved in water with and without mannitol and then spray dried using a Büchi 190 spray dryer. The spray dried powders were stored for 5 days at 0, 29, 51, 58, 69, and 84% relative humidity at ambient temperature. ...
