The purpose of this study was to develop a new monolithic matrix tablet to completely deliver glipizide in a zero order manner over a sustained period. Two approaches were examined using drug in a formulation that contain polymer like hydroxylpropyl methyl-cellulose K 100 (HPMCK) and Eudragit L 100. The granules were prepared by wet granulation method and thereby formulated as F-1, F-2. F...

Hot-melt coating process (HMCP) was applied to develop a lipid based oral controlled release matrix system (tablet) to deliver highly aqueous soluble drugs using paracetamol as a model drug. Granules prepared from paracetamol and particular filler were coated with different levels of lipid and then compressed into tablets to get controlled/sustained delivery of the drug over an optimum period. ...

We have used an antibody against the ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum to localize a calcium release channel in sea urchin eggs. The calcium release channel is present in less than 20% of immature oocytes, where it does not demonstrate a specific cytoplasmic localization, while it is confined to the cortex of all mature eggs examined. This is i...

In majority of individuals blood pressure rises in the early morning hours, which lead to serious cardiovascular complications. Formulation of pulsatile system makes it possible to deliver drug at definite period of time when symptoms of the disease condition are most critical. The purpose of the present work was to develop pulsatile release tablet of losartan potassium for chronotherapy in hyp...

Cultured rat schwann cells grown in association with sensory neurons when labeled with [(3)H]leucinem, [(3)H]glucosamine, or [(35)S]methionine release labeled polypeptides into the culture medium. Analysis by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of the culture medium reveals a reproducible pattern of more than 20 polypeptides with molecular weights ranging from 15,000 to more than ...

Introduction Wound pH influences residence time and activity of growth factors in healing [1]. Hence, pH responsive sustained release growth factor delivery system capable of modulating release pattern in response to varying wound pH is beneficial for treatment of wound. Thus, potential of poly (N-iso propylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogel as pH sensitive sustained release system for wound ...

       In recent decades, most of researchers in pharmaceutical preparations have focused increasingly on new formulations that control the site and amount of drug delivery. Mucoadhesive dosage forms are available for systemic or local treatment. The mucoadhesive dosage forms are introduced in various forms such as tablets, gels, ointments, patches and polymeric films. For buccal wound and inju...

background: as glass ionomers have the ability to reload fluoride from outside sources, the aim was to compare the recharge pattern of six glass ionomer cements after exposure to fluoride. materials and methods: fuji vii, fuji ix, riva pink, riva bleach, ketac fil and fuji ix extra were investigated. the fluoride-containing materials used were tooth paste and mouth wash (colgate). specimens of ...

d-coder is a fertilizer with a new slow-release mechanism consisting of an organo-mineral matrix that releases the nutrients only in the presence of growing plants. pot and field experiments were carried out to study the release pattern of n from d-coder. the experiments included grown and bare soil plots. the fertilizer treatments were d-coder, ammonium nitrate (anpreplant), and the control. a...

The aim of the present study was the formulation and evaluation of controlled release polymeric tablets of Diclofenac Potassium by wet granulation method for the release rate, release pattern and the mechanism involved in drug release. Formulations having three grades of polymer Ethocel (7P; 7FP, 10P, 10FP, 100P, 100FP) in several drugs to polymer ratios (10:3 and 10:1) were compressed into tab...
