A floating type of dosage form of ranitidine hydrochloride in the form of microspheres capable of floating on simulated gastric fluid was prepared by solvent evaporation technique. Microspheres prepared with ethyl cellulose, Eudragit(®) RS100 alone or in combination were evaluated for percent yield, drug entrapment, percent buoyancy and drug release and the results demonstrated satisfactory per...

The investigation was concerned with design and characterization of oral controlled release matrix tablets of Zidovudine (AZT) in order to improve efficacy and better patient compliance. Tablets were prepared by direct compression method using various proportion of hydrophilic polymer viz; Eudragit RS100 and RL100 along or in combination with hydrophobic polymer ethyl cellulose. In vitro releas...

Raloxifene hydrochloride (RH) is considered to be an antiproliferative agent of mammary tissue. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the encapsulation of RH in polymeric nanocapsules with anionic or cationic surface on its release profile and antiproliferative activity. They were prepared by interfacial deposition of preformed polymer, followed by wide physicochemical characte...

The synthesis of novel fluorescent materials represents a very important step to obtain labeled nanoformulations in order to evaluate their biological behavior. The strategy of conjugating a fluorescent dye with triacylglycerol allows that either particles differing regarding supramolecular structure, i.e., nanoemulsions, nanocapsules, lipid-core nanocapsules, or surface charge, i.e., cationic ...

HIGHLIGHTS Eugenol-loaded Eudragit RS100 nanocapsules were suitably obtained and characterized. A simple fast UPLC/MS-MS method for determining eugenol in was developed validated. showed physical stability after 60 days of preparation. may be further used reducing dental sensitivity.

Buccoadhesive buccal delivery systems for losartan potassium in the form of buccal films were developed and characterized for improving bioavailability. The films were formulated by solvent casting method using different bioadhesive polymers like HPMC, Eudragit RS100, Eudragit RL100 and Ethylcellulose with glycerol as plasticizer. The films were characterized on the basis of their physical char...

a box-behnken design with three replicates was used for preparation and evaluation of eudragit vancomycin (vcm) nanoparticles prepared by double emulsion. the purpose of this work was to optimize vcm nanoparticles to improve the physicochemical properties. nanoparticles were formed by using w1/o/w2 double-emulsion solvent evaporation method using eudragit rs as a retardant material. full factor...

Oral mucosal lesions are related to several etiologies, including trauma, infection, and immunologic and neoplastic diseases. Their prevalence varies greatly depending on ethnicity, gender, and exposure to risk factors. Currently, most oral mucosal lesions are treated with creams, mouthwashes, or gels containing suitable drugs. However, topical medications may be relatively ineffective as they ...
