A sustained-release tablet formulation should ideally have a proper release profile insensitive to moderate changes in tablet hardness that is usually encountered in manufacturing. In this study, matrix aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) tablets with ethylcellulose (EC), Eudragit RS100 (RS), and Eudragit S100 (S) were prepared by direct compression. The release behaviors were then studied in two co...

the purpose of this work was to develop once daily sustained release (sr) matrix tablets of naproxen, an anti-inflammatory agent. the tablets were prepared by wet granulation method along with hydrophilic matrix materials like methocel k 15m cr and methocel k 100m cr. the granules were evaluated for bulk density, angle of repose, compressibility index, total porosity and drug content. the table...

Many strategies have been developed to improve vaccine delivery in the past decade. The aim of the current study was to develop a nanoparticulate system based on ionic gelation between chitosan and tripolyphosphate in order to load Androctonus Crassicauda scorpion venom. The best formulation was selected according to the highest association efficiency, loading capacity, optimum particle size an...

sustained release oral delivery systems are designed to achieve therapeutically effective concentrations of drug in the systemic circulation over an extended period of time. the purpose of the present investigation was to design and evaluate sustained release matrix tablets of nifedipine, a poorly water soluble drug, employing hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose ( hpmc) and ethyl cellulose ( ec) as ...

in this paper, carbon nanotubes (cnts) were added into chitosan (cs) hydrogels in the form of chitosan modified cnts (cs-cnts) composites to prepare carbon nanotubes hydrogels (cnts-gel). the products, named cs-mwcnts, were characterized by scanning electron microscope (sem) and fourier transform infrared (ftir) spectroscopy. swelling properties and effect of ph on controlled release performanc...

inhalation delivery of aerosolized antibacterials is preferred over conventional methods of delivery for targeting lung infection. the present study is concerned with the development and characterization of a novel, spray dried, aerosolized, chitosan polyelectrolyte complex (pec) based microparticles containing antibacterials for the treatment of lung infections.chitosan polyelectrolyte complex...
