Controlled release silica sol gels are room temperature processed, porous, resorbable materials with generally good compatibility. Many molecules including drugs, proteins and growth factors can be released from sol gels and the quantity and duration of the release can vary widely. Processing parameters render these release properties exquisitely versatile. The synthesis of controlled release s...

Oral drug delivery is a one of the simplest routes of delivery of drugs for systemic as well as local effect. Liquid oral dosage forms are easy to administer as compared to unit solid dosage forms but sustained effect are not achieved due to less residential time in gastrointestinal tract so,due to this problem In-situ gel used to overcome the problems. The in situ gel dosage form is a liquid b...

Promising management of eye ailments take off effective concentration of drug at the eye for sufficient period of time. Ocular drug delivery is hampered by the barriers protecting the eye. The bioavailability of the active drug substance is often the major hurdle to overcome. Conventional ocular dosage form, including eye drops, are no longer sufficient to combat ocular diseases. This article r...

Neurodegenerative diseases are becoming prevalent as the population ages. Geniposide could inhibit oxidative stress, reduce apoptosis, protect neuron, and has been used for therapy of the neurodegenerative diseases. The bioavailability of geniposide by nasal route is greater than that by oral administration. However, mucociliary clearance is a rate-limiting factor for nasal route administration...

the purpose of the present study was to develop glipizide controlled release nanoparticles using alginate and chitosan thorough ionotropic controlled gelation method. glipizide is a frequently prescribed second generation sulfonylurea which lowers the blood glucose in type-two diabetics. quick absorption of the drug from the gastrointestinal tract along with short half- life of elimination make...

acrylic-type polymeric systems having degradable ester bonds linked to ibuprofen were synthesized and evaluated as materials for drug delivery. ibuprofen, as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, was linked to 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate by activated ester methodology in one-pot procedure. the resulting methacrylic derivative of ibuprofen was copolymerized with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and...

This study aimed to optimize and evaluate a thermoresponsive ophthalmic in situ gel containing curcumin-loaded albumin nanoparticles (Cur-BSA-NPs-Gel). Albumin nanoparticles were prepared via a desolvation method, and the gels were prepared via a cold method. The central composite design and response surface method was used to evaluate the effects of varying Pluronic F127 and Pluronic F68 conce...

objectives: this study evaluated the effect of surface polishing on mercury release from dental amalgam after treatment with 16% carbamide peroxide gel. materials and methods: ninety-six samples from two different amalgam brands were prepared in truncated cone-shaped pvc polymer molds with an external surface area of 195 mm². half of the specimens were polished with green and red rubber, a brus...
