AbstractPseudoephedrine HCl-carnauba wax microparticles were prepared by a multiple emulsion-melt dispersion technique. A heated aqueous drug solution was emulsified into the wax melt (W/O emulsion), followed by emulsification of this primary emulsion into a heated external aqueous phase (W/O/W emulsion). The drug-containing microparticles were formed after cooling and congealing of the wax phase. The encapsulation efficiencies were above 80 per cent and actual drug loadings close to 50 per cent were achieved. The surface of the microparticles had submicron pores and drug crystals were visible on cross-sections. The drug loading depended on the rate of cooling and the volume of the internal aqueous phase but was insensitive to the volume of the continuous phase. The drug release was much faster when compared to the release from polymeric microspheres. 相似文献

Ibuprofen-wax (carnauba, paraffin, beeswax, and the semisynthetic glyceryl esters--Gelucire 64/02 and Precirol ATO5) microparticles were prepared without organic solvents as an alternative to polymeric microparticles. In the melt dispersion technique, the drug-wax melt was emulsified into a heated aqueous phase followed by cooling to form the microparticles. The microparticles were characterized with respect to their drug loading, and morphological and release properties. They were spherical and non-agglomerated and drug loading close to 60 per cent were achieved. The more hydrophilic waxes (Gelucire 64/02 or Precirol ATO5) could be prepared without the use of surfactants. With the other waxes, increasing amounts of sodium lauryl sulphate in the external aqueous phase decreased the drug loading because of drug solubilization when compared to the polymeric stabilizer, poly(vinyl alcohol). The type of wax, the rate of cooling, and the temperature of the aqueous phase had no significant effect on the drug loading because of the low solubility of the drug in the external aqueous phase. The drug release was controlled by the hydrophobicity of the wax. Besides ibuprofen, other water-soluble drugs (ketoprofen, indomethacin, hydrocortisone) were also encapsulated by this method. The wax microparticles could be formulated into an aqueous sustained-release oral suspension dosage form. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to prepare poly (epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) microparticles of Levobunolol HC1 (L-HC1) for use as an anti-glaucomatous drug to the eye. The double emulsion (W/O/W) solvent evaporation technique was used for encapsulating L-HC1 as a hydrophilic drug. The study examined the impact of different factors including the pH and volume of the external aqueous phase, the concentration of polyvinylalcohol (PVA) and Pluronic F68 (PF68) used as stabilizers and drug/polymer ratios on the characteristics of the microparticles. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to identify the physical state of the drug and polymer. The zeta potential of the particles was also identified. Entrapment efficiency was found to be highest with a 0.5% PVA concentration and 100 mL volume of external aqueous phase at pH 12. The high efficiency was due to a reduction in the degree of drug ionization. The microparticles were spherical and appropriately sized for ophthalmic application. Drug release from the microparticles appears to consist of two components, with an initial rapid release followed by a slower stage. Drug release was slower when the microparticle was incorporated into the thermally reversible gel (Pluronic F127) in comparison to drug release from the free drug incorporated into the gel and drug release from the free microparticle. 相似文献

AbstractA multiphase emulsification technique was modified in this process of microencapsulating gentamicin sulphate, thus avoiding the necessity for a surfactant in preparing the secondary emulsion for a W/O/W emulsion. Various proportions of iota-carrageenan (i-C) and locust bean gum (LBG) were investigated for the W/O/W emulsion after forming the primary W/O emulsion with sorbitan trioleate, Span 85. Upon removal of the oil phase (chloroform) from the W/O/W emulsion by heating (60-65°C), microcapsules or ‘W/W particles containing drug dissolved in sodium hyaluronate were spontaneously formed. These were dispersed in a solution of a mixture of 5-10 per cent w/v polyvinyl alcohol, PVA (average MW 50000-106000; 98 per cent hydrolysed) and 3 per cent v/v polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG 200), and dried to form the hydrogel film casts. Our in vitro experiments in isotonic phosphate buffer solution (pH 7-4) at 37°C., showed that the release of gentamicin sulphate was dependent on concentration of LBG, and concentration or molecular weight of PVA. With the exception of PVA hydrogel matrix preparations containing 20 per cent w/v LBG, all other formulations showed a significant initial ‘burst' release of drug within 6h. The drug-containing microcapsules in the PVA hydrogel film with 20 per cent w/v LBG, exhibited an almost zero-order release of drug up to 140h. It is postulated that an effective barrier or high-density membrane enveloping the microcapsules was formed between i-C and LBG because of their unique molecular configurations. This phenomenon, together with the possible adsorption of i-C molecules at the transient oil and outer aqueous phase interface, presumably eliminated the need for a permanent oil phase and/or an O/W surfactant normally required for preparing W/O/W emulsions. 相似文献

A stable water/liquid paraffin system water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) multiple emulsion was prepared by the two-step procedure of emulsification using a variety of nonionic emulsifying agents, such as Span 80 and Tween 20. After comparison of the releasing properties of such water soluble drugs as cefadroxil, cephradine, 4-aminoantipyrine and antipyrine which were entrapped separately in the inner aqueous phase of the W/O/W multiple emulsion, a large difference was observed. It was ascertained that the difference in these releasing properties was due to no physical rupture by the microscopic observation and the results of the release test of W/O/W multiple emulsion with two kinds of drugs entrapped simultaneously in an inner aqueous phase. This reason was presumed to be dependent on permeation in the oily phase of the drug itself. It was proved that the differences of releasing properties tended to depend on the molecular weight and were closely related to the drug concentration of outer aqueous phase of W/O/W multiple emulsion containing the drug in both aqueous phases prepared as an experimental model. Therefore, two possible mechanisms for the releasing of drugs in W/O/W multiple emulsion may be interpreted as follows: the first is that the mixed and inversed micelles formed by Span 80 and Tween 20 agents in the oily phase act as a carrier of drugs, and the second is that drug molecules diffuse through small pore existing in very thin lamella of the emulsifying agents partially formed in the oil layer owing to the fluctuation of the thickness. 相似文献

Multi-phase microspheres of poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PLA) or poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) containing a water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion were prepared by a multiple emulsion solvent evaporation technique. Acetonitrile was used as the solvent for the polymers and light mineral oil as the dispersion medium for the encapsulation procedure. Process and formulation parameters to optimize the microencapsulation of a W/O emulsion containing water-soluble drugs were investigated. Drug loading efficiencies of 80-100 per cent were obtained under specific preparative conditions. The drug loading efficiency in the microspheres was dependent upon the ratio of the W/O emulsion to polymer and the concentration of surfactant in the mineral oil. Compared to conventional microspheres, in which fine drug particles are homogeneously dispersed in the polymer beads, the multi-phase microspheres permit the higher encapsulation efficiency of water-soluble drugs and eliminate partitioning into the polymer-acetonitrile phase which results in low encapsulation efficiency with conventional solvent evaporation techniques. 相似文献

Microcapsules were prepared by using a double-emulsion technique. A new production method called 'induced phase separation method' was applied to encapsulate peptides and proteins. To find the optimal adjuvants a matrix was set up combining the appropriate organic solvents and the suitable surfactants. The polymer was chosen with regard to the required release period. The aqueous drug solution was intensively mixed with the organic polymer solution. An aqueous surfactant solution was slowly added to the O/W emulsion. The obtained W/O/W emulsion is stirred under partial vacuum conditions until the organic solvent was removed. After removing the solvent from the W/O/W emulsion the microcapsules were washed and lyophilized. The morphology of the microparticles (spheres, sponges, capsules, surplus polymer) was checked by microscopy, particle size distributions were measured by laser diffraction. 相似文献

Effects of salt addition on the microencapsulation of proteins using W/O/W double emulsion technique 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The influence of co-encapsulation of stabilizing additives together with BSA on microsphere characteristics using the modified water-in-oil-in-water emulsion solvent evaporation (W/O/W) method was investigated. For this purpose, poly(L-lactide) microspheres containing bovine serum albumin (BSA) were prepared. The morphology, porosity, specific surface area, particle size, encapsulation efficiency and kinetics of drug release of protein loaded microspheres were analysed in relation to the influence of co-encapsulated stabilizing additives such as electrolytes. High salt concentrations in the internal (W1) aqueous phase, often necessary to stabilize protein or antigen solutions, led to an increase in particle size, particle size distribution, porosity and specific surface area. Bulk density and encapsulation efficiency decreased. The release profile was characterized by a high initial burst due to the highly porous structure. Addition of salt to the external or continuous water phase (W2), however, stabilized the encapsulation process and, therefore, resulted in improved microsphere characteristics as a dense morphology, a reduced initial burst release, a drastically increased bulk density and encapsulation efficiency. Analysis of the specific surface area (BET) showed that the addition of salt to W2, regardless of the salt concentration in the W1 phase, decreased the surface area of the microspheres approximately 23-fold. Microsphere properties were influenced by salts additions through the osmotic pressure gradients between the two aqueous phases and the water flux during microsphere formation. Release profiles and encapsulation efficiencies correlated well with the porosity and the surface area of microspheres. Furthermore, the influence of a low molecular weight drug and different time-points of salt addition to W2 on microsphere characteristics were studied by encapsulation of acid orange 63 (AO63), confirming the results obtained with BSA. This study suggests that modification of the external water phase by adding salts is a simple and efficient method to encapsulate stabilized protein solution, with high encapsulation efficiency and good microsphere characteristics. 相似文献

In stabilizing proteins during microsphere fabrication, the viscous solid-in-water-in-oil-in-water (S/W/O/W) method was compared to the conventional multi-emulsion W/O/W and S/O/W method. Solid proteins lyophilized with cyclodextrin derivatives and polyethylene glycol (PEG) pass through an organic solvent phase and are then embedded in aqueous microdroplets of first emulsion. Proteins were stabilized at the water/organic solvent interface by an internal aqueous phase containing viscous polysaccharides, and then can be safely encapsulated without degradation. In addition, these microspheres showed a long-term protein release followed by nearly zero-order kinetics with minimal initial burst. This means that the viscous S/W/O/W method provides a safe strategy for microsphere fabrication and has promising properties, involving the preservation of protein bioactivity, the inhibition of protein denaturation or agglomeration, and long-term protein release. 相似文献

Ibuprofen-loaded polystyrene microparticles were prepared by the emulsionsolvent evaporation process from an aqueous system. The effects of different parameters on the drug content and on the release of the drug from the microparticles were investigated. The drug content, in all the formulations, was less than the theoretical drug loading. The lower drug content was due to drug partitioning to the external aqueous phase during formulation. Statistical analysis revealed that the variation in the concentrations of the emulsion stabilizer and the organic disperse phase volume did not significantly alter the release of the drug. Although an increase in drug loading increased drug release from the microparticles, a biphasic linear relationship was observed between the time required for 50% drug release and the drug loading. The effect of size of the microparticles on drug release was more important for the low drug-loaded microparticles than that for the high drug-loaded microparticles. Such release behaviour from the microparticles was explained on the basis of the morphological structure of the microparticles. 相似文献

Tetracaine does not result in effective treatment of intractable pain caused by trigeminal neuralgiabecause of its short duration of effect. In asustained release system a controlled delivery of the drug at the site of administration, would avoid successive administrations. Tetracaine hydrochloride (HCl) has been encapsulated using a technique based on the evaporation of solvent from an O/O emulsion, using poly(dl-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) 50:50. Microspheres were separated into three fractions: 106-212, 212-300 and 300-425mum. The effects of two variables of the manufacturing method (volume of the inner phase of the emulsion and volume of surfactant added to the external phase) on the drug loading into microspheres, dissolution profiles and SEM characterization of the microspheres were evaluated. Microspheres containing tetracaine hydrochloride (up to94% referred tothe theoretical) released the drug, in-vitro, over 35 days. Tetracaine HCl was delivered according to zero order kinetics from day 5 until the end of the release assay. The rate of drug release depended mainly on the viscosity of the discontinuous phase and on the size of microparticles. Microsphere size resulted more homogeneous when using the highest volume of the surfactant, being almost 80% of microparticles within the range 212-300mum. 相似文献

An emulsification-spray drying technique is used to prepare poly(D, L-lactic acid) (PDLLA) microparticles loaded with a water soluble, non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), sodium naproxen (NaNPX). The method involves the preparation of a w/o emulsion in which the water soluble drug is dissolved in the aqueous dispersed phase, while the polymer is dissolved in the organic continuous phase. As a comparison, microparticles were prepared by spraying a suspension of the drug into an organic solution of the polymer. The spray-dried particles were characterized using SEM, DSC, XRD and in vitro release tests. The spray-dried product was then compressed (direct compression) to obtain controlled release matrix tablets. All microparticles release NaNPX within 30min. The matrix tablets release the drug in 8-10h; the matrix tablets characterized by the presence of surfactant (due to the emulsion used to obtain the microparticles) have the highest release rate. 相似文献

This study describes the formulation and characterization of O/W and W/O creams containing urea-loaded microparticles prepared with poly (D, L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) in order to encapsulate and stabilize urea. The solvent evaporation method was used for preparing PLGA microparticles containing urea. The microparticles size was evaluated by laser light diffractometry. The resulting microparticles were then incorporated in O/W and W/O creams and stability and the release pattern from the creams was evaluated by UV-spectrophotometry. The particle size of PLGA microparticles was in the range of 1-5 microm and most microparticles had a particle size smaller than 3 microm. The encapsulation efficiency was calculated as 40.5% +/- 3.4. This study also examined release pattern of urea which varied among different formulations. The results showed that the release from O/W creams followed Higuchi kinetics while the release from W/O creams showed the zero order kinetics and the creams containing microparticulated urea had slower release than free urea creams. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to load preformed highly porous microparticles with drug. The microparticles were prepared by a modified multiple emulsion (w/o/w) solvent evaporation method with the addition of pore formers (NaCl into the internal aqueous phase or of glycerol monooleate to the poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) polymer phase). The drug-free solidified microparticles were then washed with either water (for NaCl) or hexane (for glycerol monooleate) to extract the pore formers. The drug was then loaded into the preformed porous microparticles by incubation in aqueous drug solutions followed by air- or freeze-drying. The drug was strongly bound to the polymeric surface with air-dried microparticles. A biphasic drug release with an initial rapid release phase (burst effect) was followed by a slower release up to several weeks. The initial burst was dependent on the drug loading and could be significantly reduced by wet (non-aqueous) temperature curing. 相似文献
