In the present study, a nanoporous metal organic framework (MOF) based on iron metal and amino terephthalate ligand MIL-101-NH2-Fe has been used as a carrier for loading and in vitro release of 5-flurouracil (5-FU) anticancer drug. The 5-FU drug loaded MOF was 13 wt % by using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The 5-FU release was monitored under physiological condition at 37°C, pH 7.4 in simul...

   The aim of the present study was to develop a single unit, site-specific matrix tablets of aceclofenac allowing targeted drug release in the colon with a microbially degradable polymeric carrier, chondroitin suphate (CS) and to coat the optimized batches with a pH dependent polymeric. The tablets were prepared by wet granulation method using starch mucilage as a binding agent and HPMC K-100 ...

Low molecular weight heparin-modified isoliquiritigenin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticle (LMWH-ISL-SLN) was developed for injective application. The morphological observation, particle diameter and zeta potential of LMWH-ISL-SLN were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and a Malvern Zetasizer. Its entrapment efficiency (EE) and drug loading (DL) were determined by ultracen...

The aim of this study was to develop a derivative of chitosan as pharmaceutical excipient used in sustained-release matrix tablets of poorly soluble drugs. A water-soluble quaternary ammonium carboxymethylchitosan was synthesized by a two-step reaction with carboxymethylchitosan (CMCTS), decylalkyl dimethyl ammonium and epichlorohydrin. The elemental analysis showed that the target product with...

the aim of the research work was to chemically modify guar gum(gg) as a ph sensitive co-polymer and formulating intestinal targeting eso nanoparticles (nps) using the synthesized co-polymer. poly acrylamide-grafted-guar gum (paam-g-gg) co-polymer was synthesized by free radical polymerization. chemical modification of paam-g-gg by alkaline hydrolysis results in formation of a ph-sensitive co-po...

in the near future, design of a new generation of drugs targeting proteins will be required. considering the complex bond between the drug and protein, the structure and stability of the target protein should be considered. so far, a series of in vitro investigations have been conducted with the aim of predicting drug-biological medium interactions. in these studies, use of spectroscopic method...

in the present investigation an attempt has been made to increase therapeutic efficacy, to reduce frequency of administration and to improve patient compliance by developing a sustained release matrix tablets of isosorbide-5-mononitrate. sustained release matrix tablets of isosorbide-5-mononitrate were developed by using different drug: polymer ratios, such in f1 (1:0.75), f2 (1:1), f3 (1:1.5),...

preparation of chitosan (cs) microspheres as a novel drug delivery vehicle for intranasal immunization using high, medium and low cs molecular weight (mw) was investigated in this study. diphtheria toxoid (dt) was used as a model antigen. the emulsion-solidification method was adopted for microencapsulation of dt.  in the first step, following the purification of semi-crude dt by the ion-exchan...

The objective of the present study was to prepare controlled release formulation of Moxifloxacin hydrochloride ocular nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were prepared by solvent displacement method using Eudragit RL 100 as a polymer. Different formulations were prepared by varying the ratios of drug and polymer and varying the ratios of organic and aqueous phase. The formulations were evaluated i...
