the present work was aimed to design and develop self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (snedds) with the objective to overcome the problems associated with the delivery of talinolol, a hydrophobic and poorly bioavailable drugs having ph dependant solubility. the solubility of talinolol in various oils, surfactants, cosurfactants and aqueous phases were determined to identify and select the...

the objective of present research was to design, evaluate and compare drug release from two different dosage forms in pulsatile drug delivery system (dds) for metoprolol tartarate (mt) as tablet and capsule. pulsatile systems are gaining a lot of interest as they deliver the drug at the right site of action at the right time and in the right amount, thus providing spatial and temporal delivery ...

Skin is an important organ of the body due to offering an accessible and convenient site for drug administration. One of the disadvantages of transdermal drug delivery is the low penetration rate of drugs through the skin. Over the past decades, nanoparticles have been used as drug delivery systems to increase therapeutic effects or reduce toxicity. Encapsulation of drugs in nanoparticulate ves...

MICROPARTICLES OFFER VARIOUS SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGES AS DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS, INCLUDING: (i) an effective protection of the encapsulated active agent against (e.g. enzymatic) degradation, (ii) the possibility to accurately control the release rate of the incorporated drug over periods of hours to months, (iii) an easy administration (compared to alternative parenteral controlled release dosage ...

The development of novel drug delivery systems is an essential step toward controlled site-specific administration of therapeutics within the body. It is desirable for delivery vehicles to be introduced into the body through minimally invasive means and, these vehicles should be capable of releasing drug to their intended location at a controlled rate. Furthermore, it is desirable to develop dr...

conventional transdermal drug delivery systems (tdds) have been designed for drug delivery through the skin. these systems use the permeability property of stratum corneum, the outermost surface layer of the skin. applying polymeric micro and nanofibers in drug delivery has recently attracted great attention and the electrospinning technique is the preferred method for polymeric micro-nanofiber...

Controlled drug delivery technology has progressed over the last six decades. This progression began in 1952 with the introduction of the first sustained release formulation. The 1st generation of drug delivery (1950-1980) focused on developing oral and transdermal sustained release systems and establishing controlled drug release mechanisms. The 2nd generation (1980-2010) was dedicated to the ...

the objective of the present study was to design an oral controlled drug delivery system for sparingly soluble diclofenac sodium (dcl) using guar gum as triple-layer matrix tablets. matrix tablet granules containing 30% (d1), 40% (d2) or 50% (d3) of guar gum were prepared by the conventional wet granulation technique. matrix tablets of diclofenac sodium were prepared by compressing three layers...

Context: The use of nanotechnology in medicine and more specifically drug delivery is set to spread rapidly. Currently many substances are under investigation for drug delivery and more specifically for cancer therapy. Evidence Acquisition: Nanodiamonds (NDs) have contributed significantly in the development of highly efficient and successful drug delivery systems, and in stem cell therapy. Dru...
