To answer challenge of targeted and controlled drug release in oral delivery various materials were studied by different methods. In the present paper, controlled metal based drug (Pd(II) complex) release manner of β‑Lactoglobulin (β-LG) nanoparticles was investigated using mathematical drug release model in order to design and production of a new oral drug delivery system for gastrointestinal ...

Extended-release matrix tablets of diltiazem hydrochloride (DTZ) were prepared using waxy materials alone or in combination with Kollidon SR. Matrix waxy materials were carnauba wax (CW), bees wax (BW), cetyl alcohol (CA) and glyceryl monostearate (GMS). Dissolution studies were carried out by using a six stations USP XXII type 1 apparatus. The in vitro drug release study was done in 1000 ml ph...

interpenetrating polymer networks (ipn) were formed involving hydrophobic polybutyl acrylate (pba) and hydrophilic poly hydroxyethyl acrylate (phea). pba prepolymer was first formed in presence of ferric oxide nanoparticles (

the goal of this research is preparation, optimization and in-vitro evaluation of rifampin-loaded silica nanaoparticles in order to use in pulmonary drug delivery. nanoparticles are exhaled because of thier small size, preparation of nanoaggregates in micron-sized scale and re-disrpersion of them after the deposition in the lung is one approach in order to overcome this problem, which we used i...

the objective of research was to explore the suitability of lipids like compritol 888 ato and stearic acid as release retardant to develop sustained release (sr) tablets. the sr micromatrices of lipid (s) and glipizide were prepared (lm1- lm6) as intermediate product by fusion method and assessed for various pharmacotechnical properties. micromatrices were formulated as sr tablets (f1-f6) by di...

in recent years, great efforts have been devoted to the design of drug delivery systems. many polymeric excipients have been studied in order to make drug release fit the desired profiles. the aim of this work was to design a theophylline oral suspension, as sustained release pharmaceutical preparation in order to decrease the plasma level fluctuations and adverse effects of theophylline. micro...

the purpose of this study was to design and optimize an oral controlled release acyclovir mucoadhesive tablet, in term of its drug release and mucoadhesive strength. a 32 full factorial design was employed to study the effect of independent variables like carbopol-934p and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose k100m, which significantly influence characteristics like swelling index, ex-vivo mucoadhesiv...

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...

objective(s): this study evaluates the effect of substitution of microcrystalline cellulose (mcc) with ethylcellulose (ec) on mechanical and release characteristics of theophylline pellets. materials and methods: the effect of addition of ec was investigated on characteristics of pellets with varying drug content prepared by extrusion-spheronization. also the effect of type of granulating liqui...

a great challenge in using natural polysaccharide as drug delivery system is their fast drug release. the purpose of the present study was to prepare and evaluate chitosan oligosaccharide (cho)-de-estrifiedtragacanth (det) core-shell nanoparticles for controled release of water soluble drugs. cho-det nanoparticles were prepared by microemulsion method and characterized by ft-ir spectroscopy. si...
