Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia therapy is expected to play an important role in the treatment of more and more cancers. The synergistic effects of using together hyperthermia and cancer drugs have been shown by literature studies to be more effective than either hyperthermia treatment alone or chemotherapy alone. In addition, magnetic materials that can be used as a contrast agent enable magnetic resonance imaging of the tumor, which is also useful in seeing the treatment progress. This study, which was designed for this purpose, occurred in three parts: In the first part, magnetic CoFe2O4/alginate composite beads were prepared and characterized with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). In the second part, the swelling behaviour of magnetic composite beads was investigated at pH 1.2, pH 7.4 and pH 6.8. It was seen that at pH 7.4 and pH 6.8, that is, near neutral pH, CFA swelled by 81.54% and 82.69%, respectively. In the third part, 5-Fluorouracil was encapsulated at the different ratios in CoFe2O4/alginate composite beads, and release experiments were performed at pH 1.2, pH 7.4 and pH 6.8. 5-FU release was calculated with Korsmeyer-Peppas, Higuchi, first-order, and zero-order models. It was seen that the drug release systems prepared were suitable for all kinetic models. Magnetic CoFe2O4/alginate composite bead, which is the drug carrier, was determined to be suitable for controlled release for 5-Fluorouracil.

Abstract
The study consists of three parts. In the first part, synthesis and characterization of core-shell magnetic composite beads based on chitosan and containing two different magnetic nanoparticles were carried out. The beads were formed from CoFe2O4/chitosan and MnFe2O4/chitosan. TGA and SEM were used for the characterization of core-shell materials. In the second part, swelling experiments of magnetic beads were performed. In the third part, 5-Fluorouracil was encapsulated at different rates in two different magnetic materials, release experiments were carried out at pH 7.4, pH 6.8, and pH 1.2, and the model of drug release was determined. Korsmeyer-Peppas, Higuchi, first-order, and zero-order models were used for mathematical modeling. Both prepared systems were found to be suitable for controlled release for 5-Fluorouracil.

Optimal ultrasonication process time remains constant for a specific nanoemulsion size reduction system. Sci Rep 2021; 11:9241. [PMID: 33927209 PMCID: PMC8085214 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-87642-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2020] [Accepted: 03/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
This paper theorizes the existence of a constant optimum ultrasound process time for any size-reduction operation, independent of process parameters, and dependent on product parameters. We test the concept using the case of ‘ultrasonic preparation of oil-in-water nanoemulsions’ as model system. The system parameters during ultrasonication of a hempseed oil nanoemulsion was evaluated by a response surface methodology, comprising lecithin and poloxamer-188 as surfactants. Results revealed that the particle size and emulsion stability was affected significantly (p < 0.05) by all product parameters (content of hempseed oil-oil phase, lecithin and polaxamer-surfactants); but was not significantly (p > 0.05) affected by process parameter (‘ultrasonication process time’). Next, other process parameters (emulsion volume and ultrasonic amplitude) were tested using kinetic experiments. Magnitude of particle size reduction decreased with increasing ‘ultrasonication process time’ according to a first order relationship, until a minimum particle size was reached; beyond which ultrasonication no longer resulted in detectable decrease in particle size. It was found that the optimal ultrasonication process time (defined as time taken to achieve 99% of the ‘maximum possible size reduction’) was 10 min, and was roughly constant regardless of the process parameters (sample volume and ultrasonic amplitude). Finally, the existence of this constant optimal ultrasonication process time was proven for another emulsion system (olive oil and tween 80). Based on the results of these case studies, it could be theorized that a constant optimum ultrasonication process time exists for the ultrasonication-based size-reduction processes, dependent only on product parameters.

Abstract
Omeprazole (OME) is often used to treat disorders associated with gastric hypersecretion in children but a liquid pediatric formulation of this medicine is not currently available. The aim of this study is to develop OME loaded nanoparticles with a view to the obtention of a liquid pharmaceutical dosage form. Eudragit® RS100 was selected as the skeleton material in the inner core and pH-sensitive Eudragit® L100-55 was used as the outer coating of the nanoparticles prepared by the nanoprecipitation method. Pharmacological activity was evaluated by induction of ethanol ulcers in mice. The OME nanoparticles exhibited mean diameters of 174 nm (±17), polydispersity index of 0.229 (±0.01), zeta potential values of -13 mV (±2.60) and encapsulation efficiency of 68.1%. The in vivo pharmacological assessment showed the ability of nanoparticles to protect mice stomach against ulcer formation. The prepared suspension of OME nanoparticles represents effective therapeutic strategy in a liquid pharmaceutical form with the possibility of pediatric administration.

Abstract
Iron deficiency is the primary cause of many widespread nutritional diseases including anemia, pregnancy complications, and infant mortality. Release kinetics of iron premixes to be mixed with food items like salt, rice, and tea is a key research objective of many globally active iron fortification efforts. Iron release kinetics of microcapsules of two reverse-enteric coating materials (chitosan and Eudragit EPO) encapsulating various amounts of ferrous sulfate (10-40% of total other solids) were done at three pH values (1, 4, 7) for 2 hours. Chitosan and Eudragit microcapsules contained 2.8-5.3% (w/w) and 1.7-9.6% (w/w) iron, respectively, depicting higher iron loading capacity of Eudragit microcapsules. More than 90% iron was released from most samples within 30 min under stomach conditions (pH 1) and less than 15% iron was released in 2 h under ambient conditions (pH 7), showing suitability of both chitosan and Eudragit EPO as reverse-enteric coatings for iron encapsulation. In terms of reverse-enteric behavior (RE), Eudragit EPO (RE = 2.4) was found to be slightly better than chitosan, suggesting the use of fillers in future research. Higuchi model and Hixson-Crowell model were found to best fit the data, suggesting a transport phenomenon governed by both (a) the diffusion process through the coating material and (b) the dissolution phenomenon resulting in decrease in size of the capsules. Results from this study shall provide guidance for technology development aspects of various food fortification initiatives and an understanding of the iron release from these fortificants during the food preparation and digestion stages.

Abstract
Materials which undergo self-assembly to form supramolecular structures can provide alternative strategies to drug loading problems in controlled release application. RADA 16 is a simple and versatile self-assembling peptide with a designed structure formed of two distinct surfaces, one hydrophilic and one hydrophobic that are positioned in such a well-ordered fashion allowing precise assembly into a predetermined organization. A "smart" architecture in nanostructures can represent a good opportunity to use RADA16 as a carrier system for hydrophobic drugs solving problems of drugs delivery. In this work, we have investigated the diffusion properties of Pindolol, Quinine and Timolol maleate from RADA16 in PBS and in BSS-PLUS at 37°C. A sustained, controlled, reproducible and efficient drug release has been detected for all the systems, which allows to understand the dependence of release kinetics on the physicochemical characteristics of RADA16 structural and chemical properties of the selected drugs and the nature of solvents used. For the analysis various physicochemical characterization techniques were used in order to investigate the state of the peptide before and after the drugs were added. Not only does RADA16 optimise drug performance, but it can also provide a solution for drug delivery issues associated with lipophilic drugs.

Abstract
Sustained release diclofenac sodium (Df-Na) solid lipid matrices with Compritol® 888 ATO were developed in this study. The drug/lipid powders were processed via cold and hot melt extrusion at various drug loadings. The influence of the processing temperatures, drug loading and the addition of excipients on the obtained dissolution rates was investigated. The physicochemical characterization of the extruded batches showed the existence of crystalline drug in the extrudates with a small amount being solubilized in the lipid matrix. The drug content and uniformity on the tablet surface were also investigated by using energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis. The dissolution rates were found to depend on the actual Df-Na loading and the nature of the added excipients, while the effect of the processing temperatures was negligible. The dissolution mechanism of all extruded formulations followed Peppas-Korsemeyer law, based on the estimated determination coefficients and the dissolution constant rates, indicating drug diffusion from the lipid matrices.

Abstract
The aim of the current study was the development of theophylline buccal adhesive tablets using direct compression. Buccal adhesive formulations were developed using a water soluble resin with various combinations of mucoadhesive polymers. The prepared theophylline tablets were evaluated for tensile strength, swelling capacity and ex vivo mucoadhesion performance. Ex vivo mucoadhesion was assessed using porcine gingival tissue and the peak detachment forces were found to be suitable for a buccal adhesive tablet with a maximum of 1.5 N approximately. The effect of formulation composition on the release pattern was also investigated. Most formulations showed theophylline controlled release profiles depended on the grade and polymer ratio. The release mechanisms were found to fit Peppas' kinetic model over a period of 5h. In general the majority of the developed formulations presented suitable adhesion and controlled drug release.

Abstract
A coated matrix tablet formulation has been used to develop controlled release diltiazem HCl (DIL) tablets. The developed drug delivery system provided prolonged drug release rates over a defined period of time. DIL tablets prepared using dry mixing and direct compression and the core consisted of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), Eudragits RLPO/RSPO, microcrystalline cellulose, and lactose. Tablets were coated with Eudragit NE 30D, and the influence of varying the inert hydrophobic polymers and the amount of the coating polymer were investigated. The release profile of the developed formulation was described by the Higuchi model. Stability trials up to 6 months displayed excellent reproducibility.

Abstract
Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP-CL) were examined as polymeric carriers to support amorphous ibuprofen (IB). Drug/carrier systems were prepared as physical mixes, and drug was loaded onto the polymers by hot mix and solvent deposition methods. The systems were examined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD) and by dissolution testing. PVP-CL reduced drug crystallinity more than MCC and, surprisingly, even very simple mixing of ibuprofen with PVP-CL induced disordering of the drug. Increased ibuprofen dissolution rates were achieved with both polymers, in the order of solvent deposition>hot mixes>physical mixes. The increased dissolution rates could be attributed to a combination of faster dissolution from amorphous ibuprofen, microcrystalline drug deposition on carrier surfaces and polymer swelling. However, no clear relationship was observed between ibuprofen dissolution rates (using first order, Higuchi or Hixson-Crowell relationships) and drug crystallinity.

Abstract
The objective of this research was to model benzodiazepine deagglomeration profiles of percent agglomerated versus time when interactive mixtures containing micronized benzodiazepines were added to water. Micronized diazepam, nitrazepam, oxazepam, and, for ternary mixtures, micronized sodium lauryl sulfate were mixed with lactose-povidone granules (250-355 microm). After rapid dissolution of the lactose granules, bimodal particle size distributions of benzodiazepines, determined by laser diffraction particle sizing, represented dispersed and agglomerated distributions. The concentrations of agglomerated particle decreased with time and approached constant values. Deagglomeration profiles were determined and best modeled by a three-parameter single-exponential decay equation. A nonlinear least-squares approach was used to estimate the concentration of dispersible (C(0)) and nondispersible agglomerates (C(0a)) and the deagglomeration rate constant (K(a)). Increasing benzodiazepine and sodium lauryl sulphate concentrations in the lactose-povidone mixtures increased both dispersible and nondispersible agglomerate concentrations. Deagglomeration rate was relatively fast with half-lives around 15 min. The estimated parameters of C(0a) and K(a) may provide useful information in optimizing the design of formulations of poorly water soluble, micronized drugs to maximize their dispersion.

Abstract
Over recent years, drug release/dissolution from solid pharmaceutical dosage forms has been the subject of intense and profitable scientific developments. Whenever a new solid dosage form is developed or produced, it is necessary to ensure that drug dissolution occurs in an appropriate manner. The pharmaceutical industry and the registration authorities do focus, nowadays, on drug dissolution studies. The quantitative analysis of the values obtained in dissolution/release tests is easier when mathematical formulas that express the dissolution results as a function of some of the dosage forms characteristics are used. In some cases, these mathematic models are derived from the theoretical analysis of the occurring process. In most of the cases the theoretical concept does not exist and some empirical equations have proved to be more appropriate. Drug dissolution from solid dosage forms has been described by kinetic models in which the dissolved amount of drug (Q) is a function of the test time, t or Q=f(t). Some analytical definitions of the Q(t) function are commonly used, such as zero order, first order, Hixson-Crowell, Weibull, Higuchi, Baker-Lonsdale, Korsmeyer-Peppas and Hopfenberg models. Other release parameters, such as dissolution time (tx%), assay time (tx min), dissolution efficacy (ED), difference factor (f1), similarity factor (f2) and Rescigno index (xi1 and xi2) can be used to characterize drug dissolution/release profiles.

Abstract
Increasing particle size during prolonged grinding by a ballmill has been used as a novel means of producing a pharmaceutical granulation. The compactibility properties of granules of sodium chloride and of paracetamol produced by this method have been elucidated and compared with those produced by conventional granulation techniques. Force-displacement diagrams and double compactions were used to measure the net energy input on tableting. When compared with conventional granulation methods, the agglomerative phase of comminution (APOC) method produced mechanically stronger tablets with a higher dissolution rate than those compacted from granules made by a conventional wet granulation method irrespective of the compaction energy used. Tablet tensile strength is related to the elasticity and yield strength of the substance used. It is suggested that binderless tablets may be prepared using this method, thus simplifying tablet formulation and enhancing stability. A possible mechanism for the increased dissolution rate is the increased internal surfaces area of the granules produced by the prolonged grinding method.

Abstract
Collaborative in vitro dissolution tests on a sample of commercial tolbutamide tablets and a sample of oxytetracycline capsules were carried out in eight laboratories. The two preparations tested showed differences between the products in release characteristics, particularly in the distintegration phase. This may have caused the difference in the pattern of variance in the two trials. In the case of tolbutamine tablets the value of the repeatability standard deviation was small, and therefore the major contribution to the variance was in the difference between laboratories. With oxytetracycline capsules the major contribution of the variance lies in the random errors common to all laboratories (i.e. the within-laboratory variance). One major source of inter-laboratory viance was identified as the level of vibration at the side of the dissolution flask. Another source of variation was found to be due to using a stated extinction coefficient instead of comparing the absorbances of the samples to those of a solution of a reference substance.

Abstract
Uncoated caffeine tablets of four different hardnesses were tested for dissolution rate by the Sartorius (S.S. method) and by the rotating basket method of the U.S.P. XVIII. In both methods the dissolution rate decreased with increasing hardness, and the rate obtained with the S.S. method was always less than that by the U.S.P. method. This result cannot be explained as being due only to the difference in the volume of dissolution medium. Also it was difficult to ensure that the characteristic changes in the process of dissolution paralleled the curves obtained from a plot of % caffeine dissolved vs time. Accordingly, the dissolution rate constants were calculated from the slope of each straight line in a plot of ln W infinity/(W infinity --W) vs time.
