Dissolution Trapping - Convection Enhancement Limited by Geology

Trapping of DNA by thermophoretic depletion and convection.

Thermophoresis depletes DNA from a heated spot. We quantify for the first time the thermal diffusion constant D(T)=0.4x10(-8) cm(2)/s K for DNA, using fluorescent dyes and laser heating. For 5 kB DNA we extrapolate a 1000-fold depletion from a temperature difference of 50 K. Surprisingly, convection generated by the same heating can turn the depletion into trapping of DNA. Trapped DNA can form ...

Clarithromycin Dissolution Enhancement by preparation of Aqueous Nanosuspensions Using Sonoprecipitation Technique

Clarithromycin (CLM) is a member of macrolide family with broad spectrum antibiotic activity. It is practically insoluble in water and its poor solubility is pH dependent. In this study, series of nanosuspensions containing CLM and stabilizer such as HPMC, NaCMC, polysorbate 80, poloxamer 188 and polyvinyl alcohol in various ratios were prepared using sonoprecipitation method. Briefly, CLM was ...

Enhancement in Dissolution Rate of Piroxicam by Two Micronization Techniques

Piroxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that is practically insoluble in water. The oral absorption rate of piroxicam is dependent on its dissolution rate in the GI tract. The aim of this study was to enhance the dissolution of piroxicam by a microcrystallization technique. The preparation of microcrystals of piroxicam was done by two methods, solvent change and pH shift. In the solv...
