nanoparticles of the zno and tio2 were synthesized and the physicochemical properties of the compounds were characterized by ir, x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the xrd patterns of the zno and tio2 nanoparticles could be indexed to hexagonal and rutile phase, respectively. aggregated nanoparticles of zno and tio2 with spher...

Piroxicam has two different crystalline forms (known as needle and cubic forms), that they are different in physicochemical properties such as biological solubility. In the current research, using Taguchi experimental design approach the influences of five operating variables on formation of the piroxicam polymorph shapes in recrystallization were studied. The variables include type of solvent,...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecular weights (6000, 12000 and 20000) as solid dispersion (SD) carriers on the dissolution behavior of simvastatin. SDs with various drug : carrier ratios were prepared by solvent method and evaluated for dissolution rate. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spe...

The intrinsic dissolution rate and solubility of carbamazepine was measured in aqueous solutions of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) prepared with two different grades of purity, 95 and 99%, and 95% SLS in 0.15 M NaCl to determine the effect of surface-active impurities and electrolytes. Four significant observations resulted from this work: (1) the equilibrium coefficients calculated from the solub...

the present study investigates the possibility of using poloxamers as solubility and dissolution rate enhancing agents of poorly water soluble bioactive constituent patchouli alcohol (pa) that can be used for the preparation of immediate release pellets formulation. two commercially available grades poloxamer 188 (p 188) and poloxamer 407 (p 407) were selected, and solid dispersions (sds) conta...

Piroxicam, an anti-inflammatory drug, exhibits poor water solubility and flow properties, poor dissolution and poor wetting. Consequently, the aim of this study was to improve the dissolution of piroxicam. Microparticles containing piroxicam were produced by spray drying, using isopropyl alcohol and water in the ratio of 40:60 v/v as solvent system, and spray chilling technology by melting the ...

The degradation of the carrier lifetime in multicrystalline silicon due to the dissolution of metal precipitates during high temperature annealing is well known. This letter presents evidence indicating that the presence of phosphorus emitters during annealing can help reduce this recontamination. Part of the degradation observed is due to increased interstitial iron concentrations caused by th...

meloxicam is a poorly water soluble non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and antipyretic agent. the aim of the present work was to investigate the effect of different types of carriers on in vitro dissolution of meloxicam. meloxicam solid dispersions were prepared by physical mixing, co-grinding and solvent evaporation methods with polyethylene glycol (peg) 6000. the effect of solubilization by...

Platinum stability: Dissolution of Pt, which is one major degradation mechanism in, for example, hydrogen/air fuel cells, was monitored under potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions. The highly sensitive and time-resolving dissolution monitoring enables the distinction between anodic and cathodic dissolution processes during potential transient and chronoamperometric experiments, and the ...
