Oligonucleotide Formulations Prepared by High-Speed Electrospinning: Maximizing Loading and…
The aim of this study was to develop antisense oligonucleotide tablet formulations using high-speed electrospinning. Hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) was used as a stabilizer and as an electrospinning matrix. In order to optimize the morphology of the fibers, electrospinning of various…

Anionic and Ampholytic High-Amylose Starch Derivatives as Excipients for Pharmaceutical and…
Many chemical modifications of starch are realized in organic (mostly methanol) phase, allowing high degrees of substitution (DS). Some of these materials are used as disintegrants. To expand the usage of starch derivative biopolymers as drug delivery system, various starch derivatives obtained in…

Formulation of taste-masked orodispersible famotidine tablets by sequential spray drying and direct…
Since famotidine (FA) is prescribed for gastrointestinal diseases orodispersible tablets could contribute to patients’ compliance. Its bitter taste and poor compressibility pose formulation challenges which were addressed in this study. Famotidine/mannitol (FA/MA) binary solution was spray dried…

Downstream processing of amorphous solid dispersions into tablets
Amorphous solid dispersions have gained tremendous attention as a commercially viable solubility enhancement technique for poorly water-soluble drugs. However, poor drug loading associated with poor drug-polymer miscibility is a major challenge in the downstream processing of ASDs. While many…

Polyols Permeability on Caco-2 Cells and Their Effects on Transport of Low-Permeability Drugs
Some pharmaceutical excipients are able to modify intestinal permeability, thus influencing drug absorption and bioavailability. The effect of four polyols (mannitol, maltitol, sorbitol and xylitol) on the permeability of seven active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), representing different BCS…

Formulation and stability study of an oral paediatric phenobarbital 1% solution containing…
Abstract
Objectives
Phenobarbital is a barbiturate, used to treat focal and generalised epilepsy. Since the end of marketing of the oral solution KANEURON in 2017, phenobarbital tablets remain the only available dosage form. Development of an oral phenobarbital solution for paediatric use is…

Behaviour of magnesium stearate at particle–particle interfaces: Microdynamic flowability to monitor…
Monitoring magnesium stearate (MgSt) surface coverage remains a challenge in powders. Microdynamic flowability is proposed to better understand the nature of these films and how formulation and process variability affect the final product. The method examined small-scale particulate solids in motion…

Modelling the Evolution of Pore Structure during the Disintegration of Pharmaceutical Tablets
Pharmaceutical tablet disintegration is a critical process for dissolving and enabling the absorption of the drug substance into the blood stream. The tablet disintegration process consists of multiple connected and interdependent mechanisms: liquid penetration, swelling, dissolution, and break-up.…
