Design of experiments approach on the compaction properties of co-amorphous tablets
Co-amorphous systems are an evolving strategy to stabilize the amorphous form of a drug molecule with the aim of overcoming its poor water-solubility. With research focussing on the molecular level of co-amorphous systems, little is known about their downstream processing. In this study, tablets of…

Evaluation of a Three-Fluid Nozzle Spraying Process for Facilitating Spray Drying of Hydrophilic…
Abstract
Amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) enable formulations to improve the solubility of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The amorphous state is reached through the disruption of the crystalline lattice of an API resulting in an increased apparent solubility with faster…

Smart nano-in-microparticles to tackle bacterial infections in skin tissue engineering
Chronic wounds (resulting from underlying disease, metabolic disorders, infections, trauma, and even tumours) pose significant health problems. In this work, microparticles, based on polysaccharides (maltodextrin or dextran) and amino acids, and doped with antibacterial nanoparticles (CuO or ZnO…

A dry powder formulation for peripheral lung delivery and absorption of an anti-SARS-CoV-2 ACE2…
One of the strategies proposed for the neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 has been to synthetize small proteins able to act as a decoy towards the virus spike protein, preventing it from entering the host cells. In this work, the incorporation of one of these proteins, LCB1, within a spray-dried…

The influence of hydrogen bonding between different crystallization tendency drugs and PVPVA on the…
Abstract
Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is one of the formulation strategies for drugs displaying low solubility and low oral bioavailability. In this study, high drug-loaded ASDs of drugs with different crystallization tendencies were prepared by spray drying. The aim was to investigate the…

Effect of Moisture Content of Excipient (Microcrystalline Cellulose)
Abstract
Quality of pharmaceutical product is very important because pharmaceuticals drugs should be safe and therapeutically active formulation performance should be consistent and predictable. Final product quality depends on all ingredients which is used for making the final product tablet.…
