background: progress in the field of biology and biochemistry has led to the discovery of numerous bioactive peptides and proteins in the last few decades. delivery of therapeutic proteins/peptides has received a considerable amount of attention in recent years. methods: in this study, a two-step desolvation method was used to produce biodegradable hydrophilic gelatin nanoparticles (gnp) as a d...

the most frequent adverse effects of indomethacin like other nsaids are gastro–intestinal and central nervous system disturbances. extended release or enteric release formulations minimize these symptoms. the objective of this study was to develop an extended release pellet formulation of indomethacin by the centrifugation (rotary fluid bed granulation) or powder layering method. layered, nonpa...

the goal of this research is preparation, optimization and in-vitro evaluation of rifampin-loaded silica nanaoparticles in order to use in pulmonary drug delivery. nanoparticles are exhaled because of thier small size, preparation of nanoaggregates in micron-sized scale and re-disrpersion of them after the deposition in the lung is one approach in order to overcome this problem, which we used i...

the purpose of this study was to prepare and characterize nimodipine loaded microspheres using ethyl cellulose (ec) as a carrier polymer through an emulsion solvent evaporation method. these evaluations characterized the pattern of drug release from prepared microspheres. nimodipin loaded microspheres were prepared using an emulsification solvent evaporation method. the effect of process variab...

statement of problem: since the fluoride releases from materials with the property of releasing fluoride are decreasing gradually, it seems that probably the material rechargeability is more important than their long-term fluoride release. purpose: the objective of this study was to asses the fluoride release and rechargeability of 2 types of fluoride releasing restorative materials, a resin mo...

drug delivery via buccal mucosa by means of buccoadhesive formulations offer distinct advantages over peroral administration. recently, plant gums and exudates have been screened for their use as pharmaceutical adjuvants. the aim of this study is to evaluate matrix tablets containing plantago psyllium seed mucilage in addition to carbopol as a mucoadhesive agent, and propranolol hydrochloride a...

the present study concerned with the development and characterization of metronidazole microcapsules prepared by thermal change method using different ratios (1:1, 1:2 and 1:4) of ethyl cellulose in order to select the best microcapsule formulation with a good encapsulation efficiency and drug release profile. the obtained microcapsules were discrete, spherical with free flowing properties and ...

double emulsion solvent evaporation technique is one of the most attractive methods used to prepare micro and nanoparticles in pharmaceutical areas of interest, but because of the effects of many formulation factors on the size and release behavior of the fabricated particles, optimization of the formulation factors is needed. in this study various parameters including technical and composition...
