Aim of the study is to establish physiologically-based in vitro in vivo correlation (IVIVC) of azithromycin, a biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS) class II drug (high permeability/ low solubility). In vitro dissolution was done using USP apparatus II in pH 6 phosphate buffer at 50 rpm. In vivo pharmacokinetic study was done on 28 healthy humans after IRB and Jordan FDA approvals. Plasm...

the in vitro dissolution of plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (pha) coatings with different characteristics, produced by various spraying conditions, in a tris-buffered solution at ph 7.4 was experimentally studied through the measurement of calcium ions release with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (icp-aes), and then modeled. three coating characteristics, the crystallinity...

The influence of the surfactants of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and Tween 80 on carbamazepine-nicotinamide (CBZ-NIC) cocrystal solubility and dissolution behaviour has been studied in this work. The solubility of the CBZ-NIC cocrystal was determined by measuring the eutectic concentrations of the drug and the coformer. Evolution of the intrinsic dissolution rate (IDR) of the CBZ-NIC cocrystal w...

Isotretinoin (13-cis-Retinoic acid) is a poor water soluble drug, commonly used in the treatment of severe cases of acne. The aim of this project is to formulate isotretinoin in form of tablet and enhance its solubility and dissolution rate; by the use of formulations containing either surfactant (SLS and Tween20) or HP-β-CD. The critical micelle concentration for each surfactant was determined...

Siderite (FeCO3) is an important reduced phase iron mineral and end product of bacteria anaerobic respiration. This study addresses its dissolution behavior in the presence of the oxidant chromate, which is a common environmental contaminant. Macroscopic dissolution experiments combined with microscopic observations by atomic force microscopy show that at pH < 4.5 the dissolution rate with chro...

This work describes a melt granulation technique to improve the solubility and dissolution characteristics of a poorly water-soluble drug Fenofibrate (FNO). Melt granulation technique is a process by which pharmaceutical powders are efficiently agglomerated by a meltable polymers and surfactants. The advantage of this technique compared to a conventional granulation is that no water or organic ...

PURPOSE Bosentan is a drug currently taken orally for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. However, the water solubility of bosentan is very low, resulting in low bioavailability. The aim of this study was preparation and optimization of bosentan nanosuspension to improve solubility and dissolution rate. METHODS The different formulations designed by Design Expert® software. Nano...

Solubility profiles of uranium dusts in a uranium recycling plant were determined by performing in vitro solubility tests on breathing zone air samples conducted in all process areas of the processing plant. The recycling plant produces high density shields, closed end tubes that are punched and formed from uranium sheet metal, and high-fired uranium oxide, which is used as a catalyst. The recy...

In this study, a novel ternary complex system (TCS) composed of baicalein, phospholipids, and Soluplus was prepared to improve the flowability and dissolution for baicalein phospholipid complex (BPC). TCS was characterized using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), infrared spectroscopy (IR), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The flowability, solubilit...

Ritonavir, a widely prescribed anti-retroviral drug, belongs to Class II under 'BCS' and exhibit low and variable oral bioavailability due to its poor aqueous solubility. Ritonavir is practically insoluble in water and aqueous fluids. Its aqueous solubility was reported to be 2.56 mg/100 ml. As such oral absorption of ritonavir is dissolution rate limited and it requires enhancement in solubili...
