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...

       In recent decades, most of researchers in pharmaceutical preparations have focused increasingly on new formulations that control the site and amount of drug delivery. Mucoadhesive dosage forms are available for systemic or local treatment. The mucoadhesive dosage forms are introduced in various forms such as tablets, gels, ointments, patches and polymeric films. For buccal wound and inju...

It is important to share demand information among the members in supply chains. In recent years, production and inventory systems with advance demand information (ADI) have been discussed, where advance demand information means the information of demand which the decision maker obtains before the corresponding actual demand arrives. Appropriate production and inventory control using demand info...

background: sustained release delivery system can reduce the dosage frequency and maintain the therapeutic level of drugs for a longer time. biodegradable, biocompatible and thermosensitive chitosan-beta-glycerophosphate (c-gp) solutions can solidify at body temperature and maintain their physical integrity for a longer duration. objectives: to develop a novel delivery system based on the integ...

the purpose of the present study was to develop glipizide controlled release nanoparticles using alginate and chitosan thorough ionotropic controlled gelation method. glipizide is a frequently prescribed second generation sulfonylurea which lowers the blood glucose in type-two diabetics. quick absorption of the drug from the gastrointestinal tract along with short half- life of elimination make...

The purpose of this research was to prepare a floating matrix tablet containing domperidone as a model drug. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) were evaluated for matrix-forming properties. A simplex lattice design was applied to systemically optimize the drug release profile. The amounts of PEO WSR 303, HPMC K15M and sodium bicarbonate were selected as independen...

Preemptively scheduling a set of independent jobs with release time on one processor is a historical problem. In this paper, the same problem has been considered in which objective is to minimize the mean flow time. To prepare a perfect branch-and-bound, some optimality conditions have been represented and they have been compared with the optimality conditions which have been proposed before. O...

objectives: this study evaluated the effect of surface polishing on mercury release from dental amalgam after treatment with 16% carbamide peroxide gel. materials and methods: ninety-six samples from two different amalgam brands were prepared in truncated cone-shaped pvc polymer molds with an external surface area of 195 mm². half of the specimens were polished with green and red rubber, a brus...
