چکیده

The aim of this work was to study the in vitro release of piroxicam suspended in the internal phase of some W/O/W (water/oil/water) double emulsions and to investigate the effect of hydrophilic macromolecules (hydroxyethylcellulose and Carbopol 940) in the external aqueous phases of W/O/W double emulsions on the diffusion profiles of piroxicam through synthetic membranes. W/O/W double emulsions, containing 1% piroxicam and 80% W/O primary emulsion, were prepared using liquid paraffin, Span 80 and Tagat S2, by a two-step emulsification procedure. The results of the in vitro study showed a slow release of piroxicam from W/O/W double emulsions; the release was affected by the presence of hydrophilic macromolecules. It was concluded that the release of piroxicam from the studied W/O/W double emulsions occurs either by molecular diffusion through the oily intermediary film as well as by the rupture of this film and is controlled by the viscosity and the stability of the systems. Rezumat Obiectivul acestei lucrări a fost studiul cedării in vitro a piroxicamului suspendat în faza apoasă internă a unor emulsii duble A/U/A (apă/ulei/apă) precum şi evaluarea efectului polimerilor hidrofili (hidroxietilceluloză (HEC) şi Carbopol 940) din fazele apoase ale emulsiilor asupra profilelor de difuzie a piroxicamului prin membrane sintetice. Emulsiile duble A/U/A, conţinând 1% piroxicam şi 80% emulsie simplă A/U, au fost preparate din ulei de parafină, Span 80 şi Tagat S2, prin tehnica emulsionării în două etape. Rezultatele studiilor de cedare in vitro au arătat eliberarea lentă a piroxicamului din emulsiile duble A/U/A şi influenţa polimerilor hidrofili asupra acestui fenomen. Se poate concluziona că cedarea piroxicamului din emulsiile duble A/U/A studiate se produce atât prin difuzie moleculară prin filmul uleios intermediar, cât şi prin ruperea acestuia în timpul preparării emulsiilor şi este controlată de vâscozitatea şi stabilitatea sistemelor.

Gelatin Microspheres for the Controlled Release of All-trans-Retinoic Acid Topical Formulation and Drug Delivery Evaluation

A topical o/w cream containing tretinoin microspheres was prepared. Gelatin microspheres of tretinoin were prepared using coacervation method. These microspheres contained about 50% w/w tretinoin. The particle size range of microspheres was between 90-150 m m. In vitro drug release from microspheres and a cream formulation was studied. It was shown that drug release from microspheres followed H...

Fabrication and in vitro evaluation of Ketotifen Fumarate-loaded PLGA nanoparticles as a sustained delivery system

Abstract Ketotifen fumarate is a non-bronchodilator anti-asthmatic drug which inhibits the effects of certain endogenous substances known to be inflammatory mediators, and thereby exerts antiallergic activity. The present study describes the formulation of a sustained release nanoparticle (NP) drug delivery system containing ketotifen, using poly (D,L lactide-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA). Biodegra...
