The transport of droplets in a pressure-atomized kerosene spray flame was examined using a twocomponent phase Doppler system to measure the droplet size and velocity distributions at several locations within the spray. The effect of combustion on droplet transport was examined by comparing the results to a nonburning spray under similar flow conditions. Directions of motion of droplets are calc...

Spray-drying was chosen as an appropriately scalable manufacturing method to dry cellulose nanofibril (CNF) suspensions. Spray-drying of two different types of CNF suspensions—nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC)—was carried out using a laboratory-scale spray dryer. Effects of three spray-drying process parameters on particle morphology and particle size distribution...

  Objective(s): This study was performed aiming to investigate the effect of particle engineering via spray drying of hydroalcoholic solution on solid states and physico-mechanical properties of acetaminophen.   Materials and Methods: Spray drying of hydroalcoholic solution (25% v/v ethanol/water) of acetaminophen (5% w/v) in the presence of small amounts of polyninylpyrrolidone K30 (PVP) (0, 1...

In order to improve local therapeutic techniques for the massively burnt patients and to minimize the pain associated with dressing change, the concept of topical film was utilized to formulate a topical antimicrobial spray. The commonly used topical antimicrobial silver sulfadiazine spray was formulated as a new drug delivery system. The release of therapeutic agents in vitro from medicated sp...

BACKGROUND Topical glucocorticoids are the medical treatment of choice in a majority of patients suffering from nasal polyposis. Fluticasone propionate is a fluorinated steroid reported to be highly effective when used topically in the nose for seasonal and perennial allergic and nonallergic rhinitis. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of intranasal fluticasone propionate in...
