background microencapsulation is a useful method to prolong a drug release from dosage forms and to reduce its adverse effect (1) among various available methods. the microencapsulation of hydrophilic active ingredients requires the use of a polar dispersing phase such as a mineral oil. acetone/paraffin systems are conventionally used. objectives the current study aimed to investigate two diffe...

The purpose of this research was to established new polysaccharide for the colon targeted drug delivery system, its formulation and in vitro and in vivo evaluation. Microspheres containing chitosan and bora rice were prepared by simple emulsification phase separation technique using glutaraldehyde as cross linking agent and model drug used was glipizide. Results of trial batches indicated that ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this research was to established new polysaccharide for the colon targeted drug delivery system, its formulation and in vitro and in vivo evaluation. METHODS Microspheres containing pectin and bora rice were prepared by ionotropic gelation technique using zinc acetate as cross linking agent and model drug used was glipizide. A 3(2) full factorial design was employed to ...

The main aim of the investigation was to explore a novel L-lactide-depsipeptide copolymer for the development of rivastigmine-loaded polymeric nanoparticles. L-lactide-depsipeptide synthesis was based on the ring opening polymerization reaction of L-lactide with the cyclodepsipeptide, cyclo(Glc-Leu), using tin 2-ethyl hexanoate as an initiator. Rivastigmine-loaded nanoparticles were prepared by...

The purpose of this research was to formulate and characterize solid dispersion (SD) of metformin hydrochloride using methocel K100M as the carrier by the solvent evaporation and cogrinding method. The influence of drug polymer ratio on drug release was studied by dissolution tests. Characterization was performed by fourier transform spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet, differential scanning calor...

Hydrophilic matrices, especially HPMC based, are widely used to provide sustained delivery where drug release occurs mainly by diffusion. A 3(2) full factorial design was used to develop and evaluate HPMC matrix tablet for sustained delivery of diclofenac. The influences of polymer concentration/viscosity, diluent type/ratio, drug load/solubility, compression force and pH change on drug release...

results the results showed that the fiber diameter and the amount of loratadine affected the drug release and the disappearance time of nanofibers. the smaller the fiber diameter and drug amount, the faster the solubility and the release time of nanofibers. conclusions it was concluded that electrospinning can be a suitable method for preparing fast-dissolving loratadine nanofibers. materials a...

controlled release swellable tablets of phenobarbital were prepared by a simple direct compression process using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (hpmc) as the matrix former. the effects of the viscosity grades of hpmc and hpmc/lactose ratio and ethylcellulose (ec)/sodium carboxymethylcellulose (nacmc) and their concentrations on the release behavior of phenobarbital from hpmc matrices were invest...

The main purpose of this study is developed and drug loaded nanoparticles of azelastine hydrochloride, an antiallergic drug and optimization in terms of chemical properties, drug concentration, polymer concentration, cross‐linking agent and stirring time. Nanoparticles of azelastine hydrochloride were fabricated using chitosan and sodium alginate as polymers by ionotropic pregelation method. Ca...

In this study, di- and triblock copolymers based on polyethylene glycol and polylactide were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization and characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance and gel permeation chromatography. Nanoparticles containing noscapine were prepared from these biodegradable and biocompatible copolymers using the nanoprecipitation method. The prepared nanoparticles were ...
