objective(s): ketotifen fumarate (kf) is a selective and noncompetitive histamine antagonist (h1-receptor) that is used topically in the treatment of allergic conditions of rhinitis and conjunctivitis. the aim of this study was to formulate and improve an ophthalmic delivery system of kf.ocular nanoparticles were prepared with the objective of reducing the frequency of administration and obtain...

BACKGROUND: The development of injectable sustained-release products are of great interest to veterinary pharmaceuticals and animal health business. Recently, great attention has been paid to in situ gel-forming chitosan/beta-glycerophosphate (chitosan/β-GP) solutions due to their good biodegradability and thermosensitivity. OBJECTIVES: The general aim of this study was to prepare a novel in si...

objective(s) the aim of this study was to formulate and evaluate microencapsulated controlled release preparations of theophylline using ethylcellulose as the retardant material with high entrapment efficiency. materials and methods microspheres were prepared by water-in-oil-in-oil (w/o1/o2) emulsion-solvent diffusion (esd). a mixed solvent system consisting of acetonitrile and dichloromethane ...

in this study, tretinoin microemulsion has been formulated based on phase diagram studies by changing the amounts and proportions of inactive ingredients, such as surfactants, co-surfactants and oils. the effects of these variables have been determined on microemulsion formation, particle size of the dispersed phase and release profile of tretinoin from microemulsion through dialysis membrane. ...

mesoporous silica nanoparticles with unique structure (sba-15) were synthesized and modified by [3-(2-aminoethylamino) propyl] trimethoxysilane (aeaptms). the synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by tga, n­2­ adsorption, sem, ftir, chn elemental analysis. the total weight loss for the modified sba-15 is 15.2% and thermal analysis revealed that 1.5 mmol aeaptms/1g sba-15 had been grafted...

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles with unique structure (SBA-15) were synthesized and modified by [3-(2-Aminoethylamino) propyl] trimethoxysilane (AEAPTMS). The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by TGA, N‌2‌ adsorption, SEM, FTIR, CHN elemental analysis. The total weight loss for the modified SBA-15 is 15.2% and thermal analysis reveal...

       Gel dosage forms are successfully used as drug delivery systems considering their ability to control drug release and to protect medicaments from a hostile environment. The aim of this work was to investigate the properties of carbopol 934P polymeric system in water-misible cosolvents such as glycerin and alcohol. Benzocaine is a local anesthetic and the mucosal gel formulation is appl...

Objective(s): Pharmaceutical industries are leading to improved medications that can target diseases more effectively and precisely. Researchers have intended to reformulate drugs so that they may be more safely used in human body. The more targeted a drug is, the lower its chance of triggering drug resistance, a cautionary concern surrounding the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. The aim of t...

objective(s): nanoparticles (nps) are known for their specific accumulation in the inflamed tissues of the colon and thus allow a selective delivery to the site of inflammation with minimum adverse effects. the main objective of this work is to attain mesalamine loaded chitosan nanoparticles as a carrier for oral delivery. methods: in this study, mesalamine loaded chitosan nanoparticles were pr...
