Spray drying

Background Nanotechnology is considered a new and rapidly emerging area in the pharmaceutical and medicinal field. Nanoparticles, as drug delivery systems, impart several advantages concerning improved efficacy as well as reduced adverse drug reactions. Main body Different types of nanosystems…

Impact of SDD-dissolution medium interactions on the swelling and dissolution of spray dried dispersions (SDDs) was investigated using UV imaging by monitoring SDD swelling in situ, along with correlating of the swelling with the micro-dissolution and intrinsic dissolution of SDDs. SDDs of…

Spray-dried pectin microparticles can potentially improve the oral bioavailability of peptides by virtue of their mucoadhesion. However, developing such formulations with desirable quality attributes is challenging due to the sensitivity of microparticle critical quality attributes towards changes…

We report here on improved uniformity of blends of micronised active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) using addition of spherical agglomerates of lactose and enhanced blend flow to improve tablet content uniformity with higher API loads. Micromeritic properties and intra-particle porosity (using…

Pulmonary drug administration has long been used for local or systemic treatment due to several advantages. Dry powder inhalers emerge as the most promising due to efficiency, ecologic, and drug stability concerns. Coarse lactose-carrier is still the gold standard when inhalation powders are…

Liquid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (L-SNEDDS) of curcumin and quercetin were prepared by dissolving them in isotropic mixture of Labrafil M1944CS®, Capmul MCM®, Tween-80® and Transcutol P®. The prepared L-SNEDDS were solidified using Ganoderma lucidum extract, probiotics and…

The aim of this study was to prepare HY-038 solid dispersions (SDs) with single carrier at high drug loading and then forming a tablet to enhance solubility, dissolution, and bioavailability via spray drying technology. At the same time, we hope to develop a more convenient in vitromethod to predict…

Enteric infections have long constituted a silent epidemic responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths around the world every year. Because of the global rise in antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the slow development of new small-molecule antibiotics, alternatives such as bacteriophage therapy…
