Encapsulation and release of aqueous components from sonochemically produced protein microspheres.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aqueous solutions of salts or dyes have been contained in sonochemically produced lysozyme microspheres by encapsulating an inverse emulsion in tetradecane. Release can be triggered by chemically disrupting crosslinking in the protein shell or by mechanical disruption using high intensity ultrasound.

Sonochemically produced fluorocarbon microspheres: a new class of magnetic resonance imaging agent.
With the intent of increasing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of fluorine magnetic resonance imaging and enabling new applications, we have developed a novel class of agents based on protein encapsulation of fluorocarbons. Microspheres formed by high-intensity ultrasound have a gaussian size distribution with an average diameter of 2.5 microns. As with conventional emulsions, these microspheres...
متن کاملFragrance release profile from sonochemically prepared protein microsphere containers.
Protein microspheres have been prepared by sonicating a mixture of pure fragrant oil (amyl acetate (AA)) with an aqueous protein (bovine serum albumin) solution. The prepared protein spheres are nano- to micrometer sized with an encapsulation efficiency of approx. 97% for the AA present on the surface and inside the BSA capsule. Containers were found stable for more than 6 months when stored se...
متن کاملPreparation and In-vitro Evaluation of Controlled Release PLGA Microparticles Containing Triptoreline
Triptoreline is a potent agonist of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone, currently used in the treatment of prostatic cancer where therapy may be required over months or years. Frequent injection of drug decreases patients’ compliance. The present study describes the formulation of a sustained release microparticulate drug delivery system containing triptoreline acetate, using poly (D,L lacti...

متن کاملIn vitro evaluation of gentamicin released from microparticles.
In this study, the preparation, characterization and drug release behaviour of gentamicin (GM)-loaded poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres are described. The microspheres were produced using a double emulsion solvent evaporation technique. All the microspheres preparation resulted in spherical shape and the mean diameter was 3 microm (for empty microspheres) and between 5 and 9 microm fo...
