Aerosol Drug Delivery for Infants
INTRODUCTION Every year, approximately 2,500 children are admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center alone [1]. Respiratory illnesses are one of the leading causes of admission [1]. For children with acute respiratory illnesses, inhaled medications are a common method of treatment, as this allows p...
متن کاملNumerical characterization of multi-nozzle spray cooling
This work aims to study the characteristics of multi-nozzle spray cooling using CFD method based on the fundamentals of air flow and liquid droplet collision dynamics. A mathematical model for the two-phase flow was presented. The simulations were performed using a EulerianeLagrangian approach. Focus was placed on revealing the flow behavior with multiple nozzles, the droplet trajectory, and th...
متن کاملImproved dissolution of an insoluble drug using a 4-fluid nozzle spray-drying technique.
A solid dispersion of the drug can be made using a polymer carrier to improve solubility. Generally, drugs become amorphized when solid dispersion is formed using a polymer carrier. In such high energy conditions, the solubility of the drug molecule is increased. We previously prepared solid dispersion using a spray-drying technique and reported its solubility and crystallinity. In this study, ...
متن کاملSpray stability of self-assembled filaments for delivery.
Filamentous viruses are common in nature and efficiently deliver - sometimes via aerosol - genetic material, viral proteins, and other factors to animals and plants. Aerosolization can be a severe physicochemical test of the stability of any filamentous assembly whether it is made from natural polymers such as viral proteins or synthetic polymers. Here, worm-like "filomicelles" that self-assemb...
متن کاملA review of the microneedles for transdermal drug delivery
Microneedles consist of micron-sized projections similar to needles. They are capable of piercing through the stratum corneum and increase the permeation of active ingredients. Besides active pharmaceutical ingredients, microneedles can also deliver cosmetic agents, biotherapeutics like insulin and vaccines and also are used in diagnostic purposes. This article examines the types of microneedle...
