in this study, the effect of recrystallization of naproxen in the presence of hydroxypropyl cellulose (hpc) on the release rate of drug was investigated. crystals were generated by the anti-solvent approach using the hpc solution in water as the anti-solvent. the samples were subjected to various physicochemical evaluations such as crystal size, scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform i...

ezetimide belongs to a class of lipid lowering compounds that selectively inhibits intestinal absorption of cholesterol and related phytosterols. the purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of ezetimibe in tablets form by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (hplc-uv). a rapid and sensitive hplc method has been developed ...

tolterodine tartrate, is a new, potent and competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist in clinical development for the treatment of urge incontinence and other symptoms of unstable bladder. the purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of tolterodine tartrate by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (hplc-uv). a rapid and sen...

the dried fruit of terminalia chebula is widely used for its laxative properties. the objective of the present study was to examine the flowability and compressibility of terminalia chebula fruit powder, subsequently developing its tablet formulations by utilizing wet granulation and direct compression technology. initial studies on flowability and compressibility revealed that the fruit powder...

objective(s) the purpose of the present study was to use the solid dispersion (sd) technique to improve the dissolution rates of indomethacin (imc). materials and methods imc solid dispersions in pvp k30 and isomalt (galen iq 990) were prepared using the solvent evaporation technique and a hot melt method in weight ratios of 2, 10 and 30% (imc:pvp). solid dispersions and physical mixtures were ...

The present studies were undertaken to develop solvent-free solid dispersions (SDs) for poorly soluble anti-inflammatory drugs mefenamic acid (MA) and flufenamic acid (FFA) in order to enhance their in vitro dissolution rate and in vivo anti-inflammatory effects. The SDs of MA and FFA were prepared using microwaves irradiation (MW) technique. Different carriers such as Pluronic F127® (PL), Eudr...

The modeling of migration of hydrogen produced by the corrosion of the nuclear waste packages in an underground storage including the dissolution of hydrogen involves a set of nonlinear partial differential equations with nonlinear complementarity constraints. This article shows how to apply a modern and efficient solution strategy, the Newton-min method, to this geoscience problem and investig...

The orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) is a novel dosage form that disintegrates in the oral cavity using saliva as the disintegrating medium and is swallowed as a fine dispersion. Due to rapid disintegration, the dissolution rate is controlled by the intrinsic solubility of the API; therefore, it is difficult to evaluate the effect of formulation and processing parameters on in vitro drug rele...

Reactive processes associated with multiphase flows play a significant role in mass transport in unsaturated porous media. For example, the effect of reactions on the solid matrix can affect the formation and stability of fingering instabilities associated with the invasion of a buoyant non-wetting fluid. In this study, we focus on the formation and stability of capillary channels of a buoyant ...

bioleaching processes for extraction of cu and mo from molybdenite cons. are more environmentally friendly and consume less energy than conventional technologies, yet less economically efficient. one necessary step towards arriving at a cost-effective bioleaching process is using appropriate methodology to optimize pertinent factors in such processes. to this end, the present study employed res...
