An attempt was made to sustain the release of Betahistine hydrochloride by complexation technique using strong cation-exchange resin, Tulsion T344. The drug loading onto ion-exchange resin was optimized for mixing time, activation, effect of pH, swelling time, ratio of drug : resin, and temperature. The resinate was evaluated for micromeritic properties and characterized using XRPD and IR. For ...

Clarithromycin, an antibacterial agent, is extremely bitter in taste. The present research communication deals with development of taste masked resinate of clarithromycin using Tulsion-335, an acidic cation ion exchange resin. The drug resin complexes were prepared by batch process by taking drug to resin ratios of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4. The drug resin complexation procedure was optimized with ...

introduction : albumin, one of the most important plasma proteins, has a difficult process of synthesis and production. we compared two different methods for albumin purification: carboxymethyl cellulose (cm cellulose) resin exchange and diethylaminoethyl cellulose (deae cellulose) resin exchange in order to determine which resin could be more beneficial. materials and methods : two ion exchang...

a mathematical model of sorption of zirconium and hafnium cations mixture and elution of these ions from a cation exchange resin bed is developed. sulfuric acid is selected as the eluent for selective separation of zr and hf in a packed bed of dowex cation exchange resin. the column model is a dispersed plug flow model,and assumed to consist of randomly packed synthetic and spherical resin bead...

Cancer therapy with oncolytic measles virus (MV) requires high titers of pure, infectious particles (~108 times more per dose than the vaccine). A gentle but efficient downstream purification process is therefore essential. Here we investigated suitability ion-exchange chromatography for MV using resin-based stationary phases. The success was evaluated based on yield, ratio to total particles, ...

We compared results for the liquid-chromatographic determination of free norepinephrine and epinephrine in urine after purifying the catechols by the following methods: (a) acid-washed alumina, (b) weak cation-exchange resin (WCX), (c) a combination of weak cation-exchange resin followed by alumina (WCX-alumina), and (d) commercially available phenylboronic acid adsorbent. We evaluated analytic...

Estimation of plasma catecholamine concentrations by "high-performance" liquid chromatography, although increasingly used, still presents difficulties. We describe a method for clean-up of plasma samples on cation-exchange resin before they are extracted with alumina. This procedure eliminates many of the interfering compounds often present in plasma extracts prepared with the alumina treatment...
