چکیده

Purpose: The solubility of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in water is extremely low, resulting in a low oral bioavailability. In this study, we attempted to improve the low dissolution and bioavailability of CoQ10, by means of the complexation with natural α-, βand γ-cyclodextrins (CyDs) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CyD (HP-β-CyD). Methods: The complexation of CoQ10 with CyDs was studied by the solubility method. Solid CoQ10/CyD complexes with different molar ratios were prepared by the kneading method using ethanol/water (1: 1) mixed solvent. Results: Among these CyDs, γ-CyD signifi cantly increased the solubility of CoQ10 at lower CyD concentrations. The powder X-ray diffraction peaks of CoQ10 disappeared following solid complexation with γ-CyD, although the endothermic peak due to the melting of the drug did not disappear completely. The dissolution rate of CoQ10 was signifi cantly increased by complexation with γ-CyD, probably due to soluble complex formation and/or nanometer-sized particle formation, which was refl ected in the enhanced oral absorption in dogs. Conclusion: The results indicated that γ-CyD is useful for improving the oral bioavailability of CoQ10.

Enhancement of Oral Bioavailability of Functional Ingredients by Complexation with Cyclodextrin

Natural lipophilic bioactives that possess human health benefits, such as coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and R-α-lipoic acid (RALA), often have undesirable characteristics that limit their use as nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals. These bioactives are usually unstable against oxygen, ultraviolet light, low pH and heat. Furthermore, their watersolubility is low because of their hydrophobic nature or insta...

Preparation, Physicochemical Characterization and In-vitro Dissolution Studies of Diosmin-cyclodextrin Inclusion Complexes

Diosmin, a vascular-protecting agent, is practically insoluble in water, and its oral absorption is limited by its extremely low dissolution rate. In this study, β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) were obtained to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of diosmin. Phase solubility studies of diosmin with βCD and HPβCD in distilled water were conducted to charac...

Domperidone is a widely used antiemetic, poorly water soluble drug, erratically absorbed in stomach and possess several dissolution-related problems thus it has poor bioavailability. Solubility of a drug plays a very important role in dissolution and hence absorption of drug which ultimately affects its bioavailability. Hence, by considering the facts related to drug, attempts have been made to...
