Spray-Dried Chitosan Hydrogel Particles as a Potential Delivery System for Benzydamine Hydrochloride
Abstract
Chitosan, being a biocompatible and mucoadhesive polysaccharide, is one of the most preferred hydrogel-forming materials for drug delivery. The objectives of the present study are to obtain spray-dried microparticles based on low-molecular-weight chitosan and study their potential…

Design of High-Payload Ascorbyl Palmitate Nanosuspensions for Enhanced Skin Delivery
A high-payload ascorbyl palmitate (AP) nanosuspension (NS) was designed to improve skin delivery following topical application. The AP-loaded NS systems were prepared using the bead-milling technique, and softly thickened into NS-loaded gel (NS-G) using hydrophilic polymers. The optimized NS-G…
