Soil aggregates were prepared from a bulk soil collected from paddy soil in the Taihu Lake region and aluminum (Al) dissolution, solution pH changes during copper (Cu(2+)) sorption were investigated with static sorption and magnetic stirring. Kinetics of Cu(2+) sorption and Al dissolution were also studied by magnetic stirring method. No Al dissolution was observed until Cu(2+) sorption was gre...

The intent of this work was to study the effect of polymorphism on dissolution properties and to apply several methods to evaluate the dissolution profiles of immediate-release tablets containing alpha (α) and beta (β) forms of eletriptan hydrobromide (EH). The polymorphs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and diffuse reflectance infrared Fou...

The objective of the present study was to develop and validate a discriminative dissolution method for evaluation of carvedilol tablets. Different conditions such as type of dissolution medium, volume of dissolution medium and rotation speed of paddle were evaluated. The best in vitro dissolution profile was obtained using Apparatus II (paddle), 50 rpm, 900 ml of pH 6.8 phosphate buffer as diss...

Atorvastatin, an HMG CoA reductase inhibitor, is widely used for the treatment of dyslipidemia and prevention of cardiovascular disease. It belongs to Class 2 of the Biopharmaceutics Classification System owing to its low solubility and high permeability. In vitro dissolution testing is an essential tool for the design of a dosage form. Appropriate selection of dissolution test conditions is es...

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...

A quantitative understanding of the mechanism of human dental enamel dissolution in buffers is important because it should lead to a clear description of the causative factors in caries formation, and it can be profitably employed in the design of meaningful screening methods for potential anti-decay agents. Gray' has reported studies on enamel dissolution, concluding that the rates of dissolut...

The dissolution rate of glass fibers has been shown to be pH sensitive using in vitro lung fluid simulant models. The current study investigated whether there is a difference in phagosomal pH (ppH) between rat alveolar macrophages (AM) and rat nasal epithelial cells (RNEC) and whether such a difference would influence the dissolution of glass fibers. The ppH was measured in cultured AM and RNEC...

In this study, the recovery of platinum and palladium from petroleum catalysts has been elaborated using a method consisting mainly of dissolving alumina substrate in sulfuric acid thereby concentrating the precious metals in the residue. The effect of dissolution temperature and time, concentration of sulfuric acid, and pulp density on the dissolution of alumina substrate was investigated syst...

The oral Bioavailability of BCS (Bio Pharmaceutical Classification System) class II drug with poor solubility and reasonable permeability is limited by drug dissolution. The purpose of this research was to obtain enhancement of the dissolution profile of Mefenamic acid (MA) using solid dispersion technique with hydrophilic polymers such as poly ethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP)...

Clarithromycin (CLA), a broad-spectrum macrolide, is a poorly soluble drug with dissolution rate limited absorption. The aim of this investigation was to prepare CLA nanoparticles from a ternary ground mixture in the presence of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as co-grinding water-soluble compounds, in order to improve the drug dissolution rate. Different weight rati...
