Liang C, Weng CY. Evaluation of alkaline activated sodium persulfate sustained release rod for the removal of dissolved trichloroethylene. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 439:129657. [PMID: 35905609 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2022] [Revised: 06/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The presence of trichloroethylene (TCE) dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) in the subsurface can generate a dissolved phase plume in groundwater. This study developed an alkaline activated sodium persulfate (SPS) sustained release oxidation rod (alkaline SPS SR-Rod) for long-term in situ chemical oxidation accelerated treatment of TCE dissolved from TCE DNAPL, by creating a greater concentration gradient at the TCE DNPL boundary. The dissolution of TCE DNAPL (1 mL) in water (280 mL) generated ~700 mg L-1, with a volumetric mass transfer coefficient (kLa) of 0.0187 d-1. The alkaline SPS SR-Rod system had a kLa of 0.013 d-1 for TCE dissolution at early stage, and thereafter aqueous TCE concentration remained below ~10 mg L-1 over 60 d of reaction. An SPS SR-Rod life-span of 186 d, for 90% of SPS released from the rod, was estimated. In the soil-water system, aqueous TCE was maintained < 3 mg L- 1 throughout the reaction and the soil oxidant demand was determined to be ~4 g-SPS/kg-soil in the alkaline SPS SR-Rod system. These results revealed that the use of the alkaline SPS SR-Rod can be effective as a method of treating dissolved TCE released from DNAPL contamination, and thereby accelerating TCE DNAPL removal.

Abstract
The low oral bioavailability, short biological half-life, high dose, and frequent dosing of berberine (BBR) contribute to its restricted clinical use despite its extensive pharmacological activity. Thus, the objective of this study was to formulate sustained-release microparticles (MPs) using a pH-independent release polymer and to evaluate their potential to improve the oral bioavailability of BBR. BBR loaded MPs were prepared using the emulsion crosslinking method and evaluated for particle size, circularity, morphology, entrapment efficiency, solid-state analysis, swelling index, and in vitro BBR release study fitted with different models of release kinetics. The MPs exhibited desired particle sizes ranges between 11.09-11.62 μm and were almost spherical in shape, as confirmed by the circularity value and micrographic images. A loss of BBR crystallinity was observed after encapsulation in MPs, as evident from various solid-state analyses. The final optimized batch (F3) showed highest % BBR entrapment efficiency value of 81.63% ± 4.9. The in vitro BBR release performance in both acidic and alkaline media showed the desired sustained release behavior from the crosslinked MPs, where the maximum BBR release was observed at alkaline pH, which is in accordance with the swelling study data. In the in vivo study, the oral absorption profiles of BBR from both pristine and MPs formats were investigated using in-house prototyped 3D printed hollow capsules as a unit dose carrier. In vivo data showed sustained and prolonged absorption behavior of BBR from MPs compared to their pristine counterparts, which resulted in a cumulative increment of relative oral bioavailability to mitigate the aforementioned issues related to BBR.

Physicochemical and release behaviour of phytochemical compounds based on black jamun pulp extracts-filled alginate hydrogel beads through vibration dripping extrusion. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 194:715-725.

Abstract
The phytochemical-rich extract obtained from black jamun pulp were encapsulated using vibrating dripping extrusion technique. The utilisation of alginate (AL) with four variations of core-shell material comprising gum Arabic (AL-GA), guar gum (AL-GG), pectin (AL-P) and xanthan gum (AL-X) was engaged to form calcium-alginate based lyophilised jamun extract encapsulated beads. It resulted that among four variations, lyophilised alginate with AL-GG based encapsulated jamun extract filled beads have better physicochemical characteristics and 95% encapsulation efficiency. The results revealed the morphological comparison of each variation. The release behaviour of AL-GG based beads has a higher release of total phenolics (TPC) and total anthocyanin content (TAC). The release kinetics model involving Ritger-Peppas and Higuchi model were applied for release TPC and TAC of all variations of beads. The Ritger-Peppas model was found best suitable in terms of average R2 (0.965) and lowest χ2 (0.0039). The release kinetics study showed that AL-GA based beads followed by AL-GG could also be the best suitable in release behaviour using simulated gastrointestinal fluids at 140-160 min. Overall, results shown the encapsulated Jamun beads have the best agro-industrial efficacy in form of phytochemical compounds based microparticles, holding decent antioxidant potential.

Abstract
Smart polymer-based micro/nanoassemblies have emerged as a promising alternative for transporting and delivering a myriad of cargo. Cargo encapsulation into (or linked to) polymeric micro/nanocarrier (PC) strategies may help to conserve cargo activity and functionality when interacting with its surroundings in its journey to the target. PCs for cargo phototriggering allow for excellent spatiotemporal control via irradiation as an external stimulus, thus regulating the delivery kinetics of cargo and potentially increasing its therapeutic effect. Micromotors based on PCs offer an accelerated cargo-medium interaction for biomedical, environmental, and many other applications. This review collects the recent achievements in PC development based on nanomicelles, nanospheres, and nanopolymersomes, among others, with enhanced properties to increase cargo protection and cargo release efficiency triggered by ultraviolet (UV) and near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, including light-stimulated polymeric micromotors for propulsion, cargo transport, biosensing, and photo-thermal therapy. We emphasize the challenges of positioning PCs as drug delivery systems, as well as the outstanding opportunities of light-stimulated polymeric micromotors for practical applications.

Abstract
A drug dissolution profile is one of the most critical dosage form characteristics with immediate and controlled drug release. Comparing the dissolution profiles of different pharmaceutical products plays a key role before starting the bioequivalence or stability studies. General recommendations for dissolution profile comparison are mentioned by the EMA and FDA guidelines. However, neither the EMA nor the FDA provides unambiguous instructions for comparing the dissolution curves, except for calculating the similarity factor f2. In agreement with the EMA and FDA strategy for comparing the dissolution profiles, this manuscript provides an overview of suitable statistical methods (CI derivation for f2 based on bootstrap, CI derivation for the difference between reference and test samples, Mahalanobis distance, model-dependent approach and maximum deviation method), their procedures and limitations. However, usage of statistical approaches for the above-described methods can be met with difficulties, especially when combined with the requirement of practice for robust and straightforward techniques for data evaluation. Therefore, the bootstrap to derive the CI for f2 or CI derivation for the difference between reference and test samples was selected as the method of choice.

Abstract
A type of multi-sensitive ABC-CBA block copolymer with thermal, glutathione and pH-responsive bonds was synthesized via ring opening polymerization along with cationic ring opening mechanisms. In continuum, the synthesized copolymer strands self-assembled into nanomicelles. The linear copolymer is comprised poly (methoxy ethylene glycol)-b-poly (2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-b-poly (ε-caprolactone)-cystamine (i.e. [mPEG-b-PEtOz-PCL]2-Cys) and the curcumin was encapsulated inside the micelles mostly through hydrophobic interaction. The H-NMR, FTIR and GPC analysis were applied to identify the composition structure of the copolymer. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) value was achieved favorably 0.01 mg/mL for the synthesized copolymer. The morphology and particle size of solid nanocarrier were characterized by DLS, Zeta potential, AFM, TEM, and SEM micrographs. The drug loading content for the curcumin was attained 13.3% (w/w), and the entrapment efficacy of the drug in nanocarrier was obtained 79 percent. The in vitro release profile of the drug-loaded micelle was investigated by exposure to different pH, temperature and reduction circumstances, stimulated by tumor microenvironment conditions. The cell viability assay of the drug-loaded nanocarrier demonstrates high cytotoxicity toward HDF cells, while the drug-free nanocarrier has trifling toxicity and good biocompatibility. Therefore, according to the pleasant output of the research, this novel nanomicelle based on ABC-CBA block copolymer can be carried out effectively as an efficient nanocarrier in targeted drug delivery.

Development and Characterization of Sustained-Released Donepezil Hydrochloride Solid Dispersions Using Hot Melt Extrusion Technology. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13020213.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to develop the sustained release formulation of donepezil hydrochloride (DH) using the hot-melt extruded solid dispersion technique via the rational screening of hydrophobic carriers. Hydrophobic carriers with different physicochemical properties such as pH-independent swellability, low-permeability (Eudragit® RS PO (E-RS)), pH-independent non-swellability (ethyl cellulose N7 (EC-N7)), and the presence of lipids (Compritol® 888 ATO (C-888)) with or without pore-forming agents were used to achieve the sustained release profile of DH. Mannitol (MNT) was chosen as the temporary pore-forming agent. The thermal analysis showed that both the drug and C-888 preserved their crystallinity within a solid dispersion. During a dissolution test, MNT could generate pores, and the drug release rate was proportionally correlated to the MNT content. Tailoring of the ratio of C-888 and MNT in the formulations along with an appropriate extrusion temperature profile resulted in the modified release of DH, and a preferable release pattern was obtained under these conditions. C-888 was chosen for the further investigations to obtain tablets with a high integrity. The optimized tablets were compared to the marketed formulation of Aricept® in terms of drug release profiles. The optimized formulation showed the stable and sustained release behavior of extended release profile, which was close to the release behavior of Aricept® with good tablet characteristics. It was concluded that the hot-melt extrusion technique can be utilized for the manufacturing of DH sustained release tablets with improved tablet integrity and characteristics by co-processing the tablet excipient with DH/C-888.

Abstract
Slow-releasing carbon source tablets were manufactured for an in-situ biological denitrification system. The average zero-order nitrate degradation rates seen, from highest to lowest, were in microcosms to which lactate, fumarate, propionate, and formate had been added. Fumarate was approximately 80% cheaper than lactate, and consequently was determined to be the most optimal slow-releasing carbon source in tablet form. The slow-releasing precipitating tablet (SRPT) and slow-releasing floating tablet (SRFT) were manufactured with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as the agent of release control, microcrystalline cellulose pH 101 (MCC 101) as the binder, #8 sand as the precipitation agent, and calcium carbonate and citric acid as floating agents. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction indicated that the crystal arrangement in the SRPTs and SRFTs was maintained and ordered in a manner similar to raw excipients. SRFTs floated in water within 30 min and remained so for 5 d due to the buoyancy of carbon dioxide. The carbon source release rate was proportional to the quantity of HPMC added. The longevities of SRPT with 300 mg of HPMC and SRFT with 400 mg of HPMC were 25.4 d and 37.3 d, respectively. This study observed that SRPT and SRFT were manufactured effectively and are suitable for in-situ slow-releasing biological systems.

Abstract
This study investigated a chemically crosslinked poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel controlled drug delivery system to deliver the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone (DEX). The PVA hydrogels, with different crosslinking densities, were characterized by swelling studies, electron scanning microscopy, viscosity, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and in vitro release assessment. Increasing crosslinking density slowed and decreased swelling and water absorption. FTIR analysis suggested DEX has possible interactions with the crosslinker and the PVA polymer. In vitro release of DEX from PVA hydrogels was sustained for 33 days and appeared to fit the Higuchi and Korsmeyer-Peppas models. This work indicates the likelihood of PVA hydrogel as a controlled drug release system for DEX for anti-inflammatory uses.

Abstract
Traditional spherical albumin nanoparticles remain as the dominant shape of nano-carriers described in the literature at present, due to their simple desolvation method of synthesis. However, non-spherical shapes also show great promise as cancer drug delivery vectors. In this study, we report a novel synthetic strategy based on dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) addition during desolvation step, to produce doughnut-shaped bovine serum albumin nanoparticles (DBSA-NPs), while maintaining narrow size distributions and homogeneity. The characteristics such as size, polydispersity and doxorubicin loading of prepared DBSA-NPs in comparison with spherical ones were determined. The biodegradation of DBSA-NPs loaded with doxorubicin (Dox-DBSA-NPs) in the presence of trypsin enzyme was spectrophotometrically monitored directly based on doxorubicin release profile. The release profile was analyzed with different kinetic models and it was best fitted with Higuchi kinetics model. The anticancer effect of Dox-DBSA-NPs against lymphoblastic leukemia (MOLT-4) and multidrug resistant uterine sarcoma (MES-SA/DX-5) cell lines were also investigated and the results were comparable with doxorubicin loaded spherical BSA nanoparticles. These results showed the potential of Dox-DBSA-NPs as a novel and high potential nano-carrier for management of non-resistance and also multidrug resistant cancer cells.

BIOIMPACTS : BI 2017; 7:177-192. [PMID: 29159145 PMCID: PMC5684509 DOI: 10.15171/bi.2017.21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2017] [Revised: 07/15/2017] [Accepted: 07/16/2017] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Introduction: The current work was aimed to design and synthesize novel crosslinked pH-sensitive gelatin/pectin (Ge/Pec) hydrogels using different polymeric ratios and to explore the effect of polymers and degree of crosslinking on dynamic, equilibrium swelling and in vitro release behavior of the model drug (Mannitol). Methods: The Ge/Pec based hydrogels were prepared using glutaraldehyde as the crosslinker. Various structural parameters that affect their release behavior were determined, including swelling study, porosity, sol-gel analysis, average molecular weight between crosslinks (Mc), volume fraction of polymer (V2,s), solvent interaction parameter (χ) and diffusion coefficient. The synthesized hydrogels were subjected to various characterization tools like Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and DSC differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results: The hydrogels show highest water uptake and release at lower pH values. The FTIR spectra showed an interaction between Ge and Pec, and the drug-loaded samples also showed the drug-related peaks, indicating proper loading of the drug. DSC and TGA studies confirmed the thermal stability of hydrogel samples, while SEM showed the porous nature of hydrogels. The drug release followed non-Fickian diffusion or anomalous mechanism. Conclusion: Aforementioned characterizations reveal the successful formation of copolymer hydrogels. The pH-sensitive swelling ability and drug release behavior suggest that the rate of polymer chain relaxation and drug diffusion from these hydrogels are comparable which also predicts their possible use for site-specific drug delivery.

Abstract
Eudragit E 100 and polycaprolactone (PCL) floating microspheres for enhanced gastric retention and drug release were successfully prepared by oil in water solvent evaporation method. Metronidazole benzoate, an anti-protozoal drug, was used as a model drug. Polyvinyl alcohol was used as an emulsifier. The prepared microspheres were observed for % recovery, % degree of hydration, % water uptake, % drug loading, % buoyancy and % drug release. The physico-chemical properties of the microspheres were studied by calculating encapsulation efficiency of microspheres and drug release kinetics. Drug release characteristics of microspheres were studied in simulated gastric fluid and simulated intestinal fluid i.e., at pH 1.2 and 7.4 respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to reveal the chemical interaction between drug and polymers. Scanning electron microscopy was conducted to study the morphology of the synthesized microspheres.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems based on polymer microspheres have received considerable attention. Ceftiofur sodium and ceftiofur hydrochloride is widely used for the treatment of bacterial diseases in animals but the delivery in vivo has not been reported. In this paper, we report the synthesis of microspheres from gelatin and PLGA, two kinds of typical natural and artificial materials, for loading ceftiofur and the in vivo investigation of the pharmacokinetics in beagle dogs. By controlling the synthesis parameters, gelatin and PLGA microspheres with diameter between 5 and 35 microns were obtained. Assay procedures based on high performance liquid chromatography were evaluated and confirmed. The dogs were randomly divided into three groups, i.e., control group, gelatin group, and PLGA group and administrated via intravenous injection. Plasma concentrations of ceftiofur over time were measured and analyzed. Results indicate that the main kinetic parameters do not show significant difference for the gelatin group and control group, but the area under the curve, plasma half-life, apparent volume of distribution, and clearance ratio of PLGA group show significant difference from the gelatin group and the control group. The PLGA microspheres show a low area under the curve but long time release.

Abstract
To avoid the systemic adverse effects that might occur after oral administration, transdermal delivery of ambroxol was studied as a method for maintaining proper blood levels for an extended period. Release of ambroxol according to concentration and temperature was determined, and permeation of drug through rat skin was studied using two chamber-diffusion cells. The solubility according to PEG 400 volume fraction was highest at 40% PEG 400. The rate of drug release from the EVA matrix increased with increased temperature and drug loading doses. A linear relationship existed between the release rate and the square root of loading rate. The activation energy (Ea) was measured from the slope of the plot of log P versus 1000/T and was found to be 10.71, 10.39, 10.33 and 9.87 kcal/mol for 2, 3, 4 and 5% loading dose from the EVA matrix, respectively. To increase the permeation rate of ambroxol across rat skin from the EVA matrix, various penetration enhancers such as fatty acids (saturated, unsaturated), propylene glycols, glycerides, pyrrolidones, and non-ionic surfactants were used. The enhancing effects of the incorporated enhancers on the skin permeation of ambroxol were evaluated using Franz diffusion cells fitted with intact excised rat skin at 37° using 40% PEG 400 solution as a receptor medium. Among the enhancers used, polyoxyethylene-2-oleyl ether increased the permeation rate by 4.25-fold. In conclusion, EVA matrix containing plasticizer and permeation enhancer could be developed for enhanced transdermal delivery of ambroxol.

Abstract
Formulations that are able to control the release of drug have become an integral part of the pharmaceutical industry. In particular oral drug delivery has been the focus of pharmaceutical research for many years. This type of drug delivery has been at the centre of research due to its many benefits over conventional dosage. The focus of this review is on matrix tablets due to their widely use and simplicity of the formulation. This includes the discussion of various types of matrix tablets and factors affecting the drug release from these formulations. The mechanism of drug release from HPMC matrices is also discussed.

Abstract
AIMS Porous silicon (pSi) and poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) both display good biocompatibility and tunable degradation behavior, suggesting that composites of both materials are suitable candidates as biomaterials for localized drug delivery into the human body. The combination of a pliable and soft polymeric material with a hard inorganic porous material of high drug loading capacity may engender improved control over degradation and drug release profiles and be beneficial for the preparation of advanced drug delivery devices and biodegradable implants or scaffolds. MATERIALS & METHODS In this work, three different pSi and PLLA composite formats were prepared. The first format involved grafting PLLA from pSi films via surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization (pSi-PLLA [grafted]). The second format involved spin coating a PLLA solution onto oxidized pSi films (pSi-PLLA [spin-coated]) and the third format consisted of a melt-cast PLLA monolith containing dispersed pSi microparticles (pSi-PLLA [monoliths]). The surface characterization of these composites was performed via infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and water contact angle measurements. The composite materials were loaded with a model cytotoxic drug, camptothecin (CPT). Drug release from the composites was monitored via fluorimetry and the release profiles of CPT showed distinct characteristics for each of the composites studied. RESULTS In some cases, controlled CPT release was observed for more than 5 days. The PLLA spin coat on pSi and the PLLA monolith containing pSi microparticles both released a CPT payload in accordance with the Higuchi and Ritger-Peppas release models. Composite materials were also brought into contact with human lens epithelial cells to determine the extent of cytotoxicity. CONCLUSION We observed that all the CPT containing materials were highly efficient at releasing bioactive CPT, based on the cytotoxicity data.

Abstract
The objectives were to characterize propranolol hydrochloride-loaded matrix tablets using guar gum, xanthan gum, and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) as rate-retarding polymers. Tablets were prepared by wet granulation using these polymers alone and in combination, and physical properties of the granules and tablets were studied. Drug release was evaluated in simulated gastric and intestinal media. Rugged tablets with appropriate physical properties were obtained. Empirical and semi-empirical models were fit to release data to elucidate release mechanisms. Guar gum alone was unable to control drug release until a 1:3 drug/gum ratio, where the release pattern matched a Higuchi profile. Matrix tablets incorporating HPMC provided near zero-order release over 12 h and erosion was a contributing mechanism. Combinations of HPMC with guar or xanthan gum resulted in a Higuchi release profile, revealing the dominance of the high viscosity gel formed by HPMC. As the single rate-retarding polymer, xanthan gum retarded release over 24 h and the Higuchi model best fit the data. When mixed with guar gum, at 10% or 20% xanthan levels, xanthan gum was unable to control release. However, tablets containing 30% guar gum and 30% xanthan gum behaved as if xanthan gum was the sole rate-retarding gum and drug was released by Fickian diffusion. Release profiles from certain tablets match 12-h literature profiles and the 24-h profile of Inderal(®) LA. The results confirm that guar gum, xanthan gum, and HPMC can be used for the successful preparation of sustained release oral propranolol hydrochoride tablets.

Chitosan microparticles were produced by emulsification and ionotropic gelation. The effects of process variables including chitosan concentration, pH of tripolyphosphate solution, glutaraldehyde volume and release modifier agent such as pectin added to the tripolyphosphate crosslinking solution were evaluated. The microparticles were examined with scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning colorimetry. The serum glucose lowering effect of gliclazide microparticles was studied in streptozotocin-diabetic rabbits compared with the effect of pure gliclazide powder and gliclazide commercial tablets.
Key findings
The particle sizes of tripolyphosphate–chitosan microparticles were over the range 675–887 µm and the loading efficiency of drug was greater than 94.0%. In-vivo testing of the gliclazide–chitosan microparticles in diabetic rabbits demonstrated a significant antidiabetic effect of gliclazide–chitosan microparticles after 8 h that lasted for 18 h compared with gliclazide powder, which produced a maximum hypoglycaemic effect after 4 h.
Conclusions
The results suggests that gliclazide–chitosan microparticles are a valuable system for the sustained delivery of gliclazide.

Abstract
Abstract
Oral absorption of the antihyperglycaemic agent metformin hydrochloride (MF-HCl) is confined to the upper part of the intestine, therefore rational controlled-release formulations of this drug should ensure a complete release during transit from stomach to jejunum. The aim of this study was the preparation of a system able to sustain release of high MF-HCl doses in compliance with the above requirement. Matrices (6 mm diameter; 50 mg weight) comprising varying drug-Precirol ATO 5 ratios were prepared by compression. The matrix containing 70% drug was coated on one face with Eudragit L100–55. Drug release to simulated gastric (SGF), jejunal (SJF) and ileal (SIF) fluids in sequence was studied using a modified USP rotating basket method. Release depended on drug load whereas it was independent of dissolution medium pH and hydrodynamics. Release kinetics were of √t type and were determined by drug diffusion in aqueous pores created in the matrix by drug dissolution. An equation correlating rate-determining factors was developed, whereby the release pattern could be optimized. The half-coated matrix started release in SGF and completed it in SJF. The half-coated matrix, synchronizing drug release and matrix transit across the small intestine, may improve drug bioavailability and reduce side effects.
