Awareness of the release kinetics active drugs is important in formulating that have desired delivery and predicting behaviour formulated drug vivo. The study aims to determine mechanism from griseofulvin tablets with different surfactants using mathematical models compare use graphs DD solver software fitting dissolution profiles kinetic models. batches P1 -P3 were composed surfactant - PEG 40...

PURPOSE To evaluate the correlation between colon transit time (CTT) test value and initial maintenance dose of polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000 or lactulose. METHODS Of 415 children with chronic functional constipation, 190 were enrolled based on exclusion criteria using the CTT test, defecation diary, and clinical chart. The CTT test was performed with prior disimpaction. The laxative dose fo...

The use of polyethylene glycol 4000 as a non-absorbable, continuously fed faecal marker is described. The intestinal handling and transit of polyethylene glycol is compared with that of chromium sesquioxide and barium sulphate. Polyethylene glycol is an acceptable non-absorbable faecal marker for calcium, phosphorus, and fatty acids, and has several features which commend its use in preference ...

Capsule endoscopy has been the first-line examination for small bowel diseases, yet its diagnostic yield is restricted by unsatisfactory bowel preparation. To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of different dosages of polyethylene glycol in patients undergoing capsule endoscopy, we performed a comprehensive meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials involving polyethylene glycol in prep...

BACKGROUND Chronic constipation is a common functional disorder of the gastrointestinal tract, affecting up to 35% of the general population, and especially the elderly. However, its definition as perceived by the patient can vary, making it difficult to understand the problem and find appropriate therapeutic measures. The approach to chronic constipation, thus, needs a thorough understanding o...

Ligand attachment to polyethylene glycol (PEG) grafted, long circulating liposomes at the polymer terminus is of interest for targeting but the effect of positively charged groups is unknown. Amino-polyethylene glycol-phosphatidylethanolamine (AminoPEG-PE), prepared in four steps from alpha-amino-omega-hydroxy-PEG, was tested for influence on liposome interactions in vivo: blood circulation and...

The data provide information in support of the research article, "Intermolecular interactions at early stage of protein/detergent particle association induced by salt/polyethylene glycol mixtures" [1]. The data regarding variation of absorption spectra is used as an indicator of the duration of Rp. viridis PRU and RC, Rb. sphaeroides RC and LH2, and Rb. capsulatus LH2 in the native state in the...

Although low concentrations of polyethylene glycol (1-5%, w/v) are essential for growing crystals of phosphoglucomutase from ammonium sulfate solutions (at close to 50% of saturation), the observed rate constant for short-term crystal growth on a defined, microcrystalline surface is essentially independent of polyethylene glycol concentration under these conditions. But this cosolute produces a...

Gliclazide is a second-generation hypoglycaemic sulfonylurea that is useful in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. It shows low aqueous solubility and dissolution rate and often shows low and irregular bioavailability after oral administration. This paper describes an approach to improve the Solubility of gliclazide by using solid dispersions (SDs) in polyethylene glycol 4000 (PEG 4000)....
