The present study investigates the effect of crystalline and amorphous carriers for the improvement of dissolution profile of broad spectrum antifungal agent Itraconazole. A comparative study was performed to estimate the ability of Poloxamer-407 (crystalline carrier) and modified Gum Karaya (amorphous carries) for enhancing the dissolution profile of Itraconazole (BCS class II). Solid dispersi...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of synthetic magnesium aluminometasilicate (MAS) as a novel inorganic carrier in hot melt extrusion (HME) processing of indomethacin (IND) for the development of solid dispersions. A continuous extrusion process at various IND/excipient blend ratios (20%, 30% and 40%) was performed using a twin-screw extruder. Physicochemical characteriz...

C-trim is a healthy food product containing soluble dietary fibre β-glucan. The dispersion of C-trim in water is a hydrocolloid biopolymer. The linear and non-linear rheological properties of dispersions of C-trim biopolymers were investigated. The linear viscoelastic behaviours for C-trim dispersions were dependent on the β-glucan that C-trim contained. The C-trim20 and C-trim30, which have ab...

Etoricoxib, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is used to Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis and Acute Gouty arthritis. Etoricoxib is practically insoluble in water; hence present study was carried out to enhance dissolution properties of Etoricoxib through the preparation of Solid Dispersions using PEG 6000 as carrier at various proportions by using different techniques like Physical mi...

conclusions the results indicated that sod-loaded in sln was delivered into deep burned skin layer and induced high enzyme activity through the skin. low particle size, application of lecithin as surfactant and low crystallinity index (ci) percentage were important factors for increasing sod penetration through the burned rat skin. percentage of activity by sln dispersions through rat skin was ...

Solid dispersions were prepared by a conventional solvent evaporation method from the water-insoluble model drug 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and monomethoxypoly(ethylene glycol) 2000 (mPEG 2000). And then one type of novel biodegradable nanoparticles, the solid dispersion (HCPT/mPEG-CHO) grafted with carboxymethylchitosan (HCPT/mPEG-g-CMCTS) was synthesized. The increase in HCPT solubility of...

INTRODUCTION The main objective of this study was preparation and characterization of solid dispersion of piroxicam to enhance its dissolution rate. METHODS Solid dispersion formulations with different carriers including crospovidone, microcrystalline cellulose, Elaeagnus angustifolia fruit powder, with different drug to carrier ratios were prepared employing cogrinding method. Dissolution st...
