On the Feasibility of Spray-Dried Eudragit-Trehalose Microparticles for Enteric Drug Delivery
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…

Data-Enriched Edible Pharmaceuticals (DEEP) with Bespoke Design, Dose and Drug Release
Data-enriched edible pharmaceuticals (DEEP) is an approach to obtain personalized medicine, in terms of flexible and precise drug doses, while at the same time containing data, embedded in quick response (QR) codes at a single dosage unit level. The aim of this study was to fabricate DEEP with a…

Compression of amorphous solid dispersions prepared by hot-melt extrusion, spray drying and vacuum…
The present study explored vacuum drum drying (VDD) as an alternative technology for amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) manufacture compared to hot-melt extrusion (HME) and spray drying (SD) focusing on downstream processability (powder properties, compression behavior and tablet performance).…

Impact of Formulation on the Quality and Stability of Freeze-dried Nanoparticles
Freeze-drying is an effective approach to improve the long-term stability of nanomedicines. Lyoprotectants are generally considered as requisite excipients to ensure that the quality of nanoparticles is maintained throughout the freeze-drying process. However, depending on the type of nanoparticles,…

Combination of lipid nanoparticles and iontophoresis for enhanced lopinavir skin permeation: Impact…
Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC)-loaded with lopinavir (LPV) were developed for its iontophoretic transdermal delivery. Electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy of fatty acid spin labels and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were applied to investigate the lipid dynamic behavior…
