Solvent extraction/evaporation, solvent diffusion/evaporation or any modification in the basic principle of the emulsification technique produces the drug loaded sustained release micro or nanoparticles of desired properties. For understanding the basic principles of these techniques, it is essential for the development of desired objectives. Emulsification is the only step where we can disrupt...

The feasibility of fabricating Janus particles based on phase separation between a hard fat and a biocompatible polymer was investigated. The solvent evaporation method used involved preparing an oil-in-water (o/w) emulsion with a mixture of poly (lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA), hard fat, and an organic solvent as the oil phase and a polyvinyl alcohol aqueous solution as the water phase. The J...

The aim of this work was to produce and characterize cetyl palmitate-based solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) containing insulin, and to evaluate the potential of these colloidal carriers for oral administration. SLN were prepared by a modified solvent emulsification-evaporation method based on a w/o/w double emulsion. The particle size, zeta potential and association efficiency of unloaded and in...

A facile method for preparing highly monodisperse, sub-micrometre conjugated polymer particles is reported. The particles are prepared through emulsification of a conjugated polymer solution on a microfluidic chip followed by solvent evaporation. The particle size is tuned between 150 nm to 2 μm, by controlling the polymer concentration.

the present study involves preparation and evaluation of gastric-mucoadhesive microparticles with metformin hydrochloride as model drug for prolongation of gastric residence time. the microparticles were prepared by the emulsification solvent evaporation technique using polymers of carbomer 934p (c) and ethylcellulose (ec). the microparticles were prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation method...

an ultrasound-assisted surfactant-enhanced emulsification microextra- ction (uaseme) coupled with high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection has been developed for the extraction and determination of thiopental in serum and urine samples. a simple microextraction method based on emulsification of organic extraction solvent in aqueous sample using an ionic surfactant and withou...

Uniform-sized biodegradable PLA/PLGA microcapsules loading recombinant human insulin (rhI) were successfully prepared by combining a Shirasu Porous Glass (SPG) membrane emulsification technique and a double emulsion-evaporation method. An aqueous phase containing rhI was used as the inner water phase (w1), and PLA/PLGA and Arlacel 83 were dissolved in a mixture solvent of dichloromethane (DCM) ...

In this study, the effect of zinc on insulin stability during the primary emulsification step of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres preparation by the water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w) double emulsion solvent evaporation technique was evaluated. Insulin was emulsified at homogenization speeds of 5000 and 10,000 rpm. Insulin was extracted from the primary w/o emulsion by a method previously rep...
