Abstract Oleogels have been widely studied as delivery matrices for lipophilic compounds. Despite their potential, oleogels are underexplored the formulation and release of semiochemicals insect behavior manipulation strategies. An ethylcellulose‐candelilla wax‐oleogel a suitable carrier slow volatile semiochemicals, employing sesquiterpene β ‐caryophyllene model substance is presented. A curre...

this research was conducted to investigate the physico-mechanical characteris-tics of the ethylcellulose-based coating membranes plasticized with different weight percents of dibutyl sebacate. in this experiment, free thin polymer sheetings of the sample formulations, by incorporating incremental weight percents of the plasticizer, were prepared employing a revised casting method of delayed sol...

thymol, an important and advantageous component of many essential oils, has been applied as an antimicrobial agent in animals. to increase the duration of action of this compound in ruminants, it was decided here to prepare a controlled release carrier for thymol. hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (hpmc) and ethyl cellulose (ec) were used as the matrix polymer here. mixtures of thymol with eight ...

The present study is aimed at the overall improvement in the efficacy, reduced toxicity and enhancement of therapeutic index of cisplatin. Nanocapsules of cisplatin containing ethylcellulose have been prepared using solvent evaporation technique under ambient conditions. The prepared nanocapsules were used for controlled drug release of anticancer agents with gold and iron oxide nanoparticles. ...

The aim of the current study was to design sustained release matrix tablets of venlafaxine hydrochloride using ion exchange resin with the incorporation of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer combinations. Venlafaxine HCl was loaded onto Indion 244 by batch method and then resinate were wet granulated with ethyl cellulose and blended with hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and compressed. A central c...

The present study involves preparation and evaluation of gastric-mucoadhesive microparticles with Metformin Hydrochloride as model drug for prolongation of gastric residence time. The microparticles were prepared by the emulsification solvent evaporation technique using polymers of Carbomer 934p (CP) and Ethylcellulose (EC). The microparticles were prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation metho...

In this study, the effects of various hydrophilic (HPMC and Carbopol 971) and plastic (Ethylcellulose and Eudragit RL100) polymers on the release profile of diltiazem HCl from matrix tablets were evaluated in-vitro. For this purpose, tablets containing 60 mg of diltiazem HCl along with various amounts of the aforementioned polymers were prepared using the wet granulation technique. Tablets prep...

Creep experiments were performed on dispersion-strengthened-cast magnesium (DSC-Mg), consisting of unalloyed magnesium with 1 mm grain size containing 30 vol.% of 0.33 mm yttria particles. Strain rates were measured for temperatures between 573 and 723 K at compressive stresses between 7 and 125 MPa. DSC-Mg exhibits outstanding creep strength as compared with other magnesium materials, but is l...
