Flurbiprofen is characterized by low solubility in water and has been implicated in causing gastro intestinal ulceration. The purpose of this study was to increase the dissolution characteristics of flurbiprofen by preparing a semi-solid dispersion with Gelucire 44/14 and Labrasol (F1) in hard gelatin capsules. The results were evaluated by comparing several in vitro parameters with powdered drug filled into hard gelatin capsules. The in vitro dissolution testing of the dosage forms was performed in different media (simulated gastric fluid, pH 1.2; citrate buffer pH 4.5; phosphate buffers pH 6.8 and 7.2, and water). Characterization of semi-solid dispersions and physical mixtures was performed using Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), particle size analysis and turbidity measurement. The results suggest that all semi-solid dispersions of flurbiprofen showed a remarkable improvement in the rate and extent of drug dissolution. The dissolution of F1 exhibited significant improvement in all dissolution media at different pH. The dissolution of flurbiprofen within 30 min in pH 1.2 was (55%), in pH 4.5 67%, pH 6.8 96%, pH 7.2 98% and in water 88%. FT-IR indicated no strong drug: excipient interactions, and DSC studies indicated a loss of crystalline nature of the drug. The particle size analysis revealed an average size diameter from 194 to 278 nm. Therefore, a semi-solid dispersion of flurbiprofen with Gelucire and Labrasol may have the potential of improved bioavailability because of the enhanced in vitro properties. 相似文献

Piroxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that is characterized by low solubility and high permeability. The purpose of the study was to investigate the in vitro and in vivo performance of the semi-solid dispersion prepared with Gelucire 44/14 and Labrasol into hard gelatin capsules (GL) for enhancing the dissolution rate of the drug. The results were evaluated by comparing with pure piroxicam filled into hard gelatin capsules (PP) and a commercially available tablet dosage form containing a piroxicam:beta-cyclodextrin complex (CD). The in vitro dissolution testing of the dosage forms was performed in different media (simulated gastric fluid, pH 1.2; phosphate buffers, pH 4.5 and 6.8; and water). Amongst the dosage forms, GL provided at least 85% piroxicam dissolution within 30 min in each of the media, behaving like a fast-dissolving immediate release drug product. Oral bioavailability of 20 mg piroxicam in GL, CD, and PP was compared after administration of a single dose to eight healthy volunteers. Three treatments were administered in crossover fashion, separated by a washout period of 2 weeks. Piroxicam was monitored in plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography. The apparent rate of absorption of piroxicam from GL (Cmax=2.64 micrograms/ml, tmax=82.5 min) was significantly higher than that of the PP (Cmax=0.999 micrograms/ml, tmax=144 min) (P<0.05) and similar to that of CD (Cmax=2.44 micrograms/ml, tmax=120 min) (P>0.05). The relative bioavailability values as the ratios of mean total AUC for GL relative to PP and CD, were 221 and 98.6%. Piroxicam is characterized by a slow and gradual absorption via the oral route and this causes a delayed onset of therapeutic effect. Thus, plain piroxicam preparations are not indicated for analgesia. The results of the in vivo study revealed that the GL dosage form would be advantageous with regards to rapid onset of action, especially in various painful conditions where an acute analgesic effect is desired. 相似文献

In vitro and in situ intestinal transport of beta-lactam antibiotics in the presence of two novel pharmaceutical excipients, caprylocaproyl and lauroyl macrogolglycerides (Labrasol and Gelucire 44/14), is described. The objective was to compare the effects of both macrogolglycerides on the intestinal transport of cephalexin, a substrate of oligopeptide transporters, and cefoperazone, a non-substrate of them. The in vitro transport studies were performed using a sheet of rat jejunum mounted in Ussing-type diffusion chambers. The in situ studies used an isolated internal loop model in the rat. Labrasol and Gelucire 44/14 were used as the excipients at low concentrations (0.01-0.5%, w/v). The membrane permeability of both drugs was compared by apparent permeability coefficients (P(app)) determined from changes in the amount of permeation vs. time in in vitro studies and by apparent absorptive clearance (CL(app)) determined from changes in the steady state drug concentration of perfusate in in situ studies. The P(app) value of cephalexin increased with an increase in the concentration of Labrasol (0.05-0.5%) compared to the value without Labrasol. The enhancing effect of Labrasol on cephalexin transport was similarly observed in in situ studies, and when 0.5% Labrasol was used in the presence of glycyl-L-leucine or L-alanyl-L-alanine, 60 or 46% enhancement of the active transport of cephalexin by Labrasol was obtained. On the other hand, Gelucire 44/14 did not affect the P(app) and CL(app) of either drug. The different effects of the excipients on cephalexin transport were thought to be due to the influences of size parameters such as a polydispersity index and particle size, and the change in the short-circuit current of jejunum by the addition of the excipient. 相似文献

The objective of the current investigation was to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate of loratadine using solid dispersions (SDs) with Gelucire 50/13. SDs of loratadine using Gelucire 50/13 as carrier were prepared by the solvent evaporation method, characterized for drug content, dissolution behavior, and physicochemical characteristics by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies. At 10 % concentration of Gelucire 50/13, the increase in solubility was around 100-fold compared with pure drug. The solubility of loratadine in the presence of Gelucire 50/13 in water showed linear increase with increasing concentrations of Gelucire indicating AL-type solubility diagrams. The mean dissolution time (MDT) of loratadine decreased after preparation of SDs with Gelucire 50/13 indicating increased dissolution rate. FTIR studies showed the stability of loratadine and the absence of a well-defined interaction. DSC and XRD studies revealed the amorphous state of loratadine in SDs which was further confirmed from SEM. From the dissolution parameters, it is evident that the solubility and dissolution rate of loratadine was enhanced by SDs with Gelucire 50/13. 相似文献

An emulsified solid dispersion of docetaxel was prepared and characterized in vitro. In contrast to conventional solid dispersions, emulsifying pharmaceutical excipients and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)
as a supersaturation promoter were introduced into the PEG6000-based solid dispersion to further improve its solubilizing
capability. The solubility, dissolution in vitro and stability of the prepared emulsified solid dispersions were studied taking into consideration of the effects of different
emulsifying excipients, preparation methods and the media. Results of the emulsified solid dispersion of docetaxel showed
that the solubility and dissolution at 2 h were 34.2- and 12.7-fold higher than the crude powder. The type of emulsifying
excipient used had a significant influence on the dissolution of the emulsified solid dispersion. The dissolution of the emulsified
solid dispersion prepared by the solvent-melting method or the solvent method was higher than the melting method. There were
no apparent differences among the dissolution media utilized. The status of the drug in the emulsified solid dispersion was
observed in an amorphous or a molecular dispersion state by differential thermal analysis and powder Xray diffraction. In
conclusion, the incorporation of emulsifying pharmaceutical excipients and HPMC with polymers into a solid dispersion could
be a new and useful tool to greatly increase the solubility and dissolution of poorly water-soluble drugs. 相似文献

The incorporation of drugs into Gelucires has been reported to increase the dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs, often leading to improved drug bioavailability. In pharmaceutical applications, it is important to know how the excipient interacts with the drug, and how the mixture behaves during manufacturing, storage as well as during administration. The uptake of water by an amphiphilic excipient, Gelucire 44/14, has been investigated in two ways: storage in humid air and addition of liquid water. During exposure to humid air, the uptake goes in stages that correspond to the dissolution of the components of the excipient, starting with the most hydrophilic ones: glycerol, then polyethylene glycol (PEG), PEG esters (PEG monolaurate and PEG dilaurate), and finally glycerides (trilaurin). At each stage, the remaining crystals are in equilibrium with an interstitial solution made of water and the dissolved components. In this range of hydrations, the total uptake is close to the sum of the equilibrium hydrations of the components. In the pharmaceutical formulation, the active ingredient could dissolve in the liquid phase. At larger hydrations, obtained through addition of liquid water, the state of Gelucire 44/14 differs from those of its components. Gelucire 44/14 forms a lamellar phase and this phase melts at 30 degrees C whereas the pure PEG esters form hexagonal and cubic mesophases. The cubic mesophases do not melt until the temperature exceeds 40 degrees C. At body temperature, all crystals in Gelucire 44/14 melt to an isotropic fluid as soon as the total water content exceeds 5%. Therefore the formulation of amphiphilic excipients can be optimized to avoid the formation of mesophases that impede dissolution of the excipient at body temperature. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to prepare multiple-unit formulations of carbamazepine (CBZ) using an emulsion congealing technique. CBZ-hydrogenated castor oil (HCO) (Cutina? HR) wax microparticles were prepared without organic solvents as an alternative to polymeric microparticles. The process involved emulsification and solidification of CBZ-HCO melt at a significantly low temperature (5°C). Five amphiphilic excipients (Pluronic F-68 (PL), Labrasol (LB), Gelucire 44/14 (GL 44/14), D-α-tocopheryl PEG 1000 succinate (TPGS) and Docusate sodium (DOSS) were added with the wax melt. The microparticles were characterized with respect to their particle size distribution, drug loading, morphological character, drug-excipient interaction, differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier-transform infra-red (FT-IR) and release properties. An average value for production yield was 83.45%. Evaluation of the release data indicates that the release mechanism from the prepared Cutina? HR microparticles follows both the Higuchi model of diffusion and anomalous release mechanism. Microparticles containing 5% Labrasol, TPGS and GL 44/14 had the highest extent of dissolution. 相似文献

Curcumin (CRM) (CAS number 458-37-07), a naturally-occurring molecule, has diverse pharmacological actions. Recently our research group demonstrated that poor permeability also contributes to its poor oral bioavailability. A self nano-emulsifying drug delivery system (CRM SNEDDS) consisting of Labrasol, Gelucire 44/14, Vitamin E TPGS and PEG 400 was designed and provided 16 times improvement in oral bioavailability in rats, at a dose of 250?mg/kg body weight. Caco-2 cell transport studies were conducted for CRM SNEDDS and CRM in the presence of individual excipients, to determine the extent of improvement in permeability. Papp values for CRM, CRM SNEDDS and CRM in combination with 4 individual excipients were calculated. Transepithelial electrical resistance value was assessed to evaluate the cell morphology and the cellular tight junctions. Permeation of a transcellular marker, Lucifer Yellow was used as a marker to assess monolayer integrity. The tested excipient concentrations were found to be non-toxic to the cell monolayer in 2?h incubation. Results showed that the Papp increased 6.35 times for curcumin in CRM SNEDDS as compared to CRM. Individual excipients enhanced permeation from 1.97 to 6.35 times, with Labrasol showing the highest enhancement of 6.35 times. 相似文献

Famotidine (FM) is a potent H2-receptor antagonist used for the treatment of peptic ulcer. It has a low and variable bioavailability which is attributed to its low water solubility. In this study, the dissolution of the drug was enhanced by a preparation of solid dispersion using two hydrophilic carriers, namely Gelucire 50/13 and Pluronic F-127. The prepared solid dispersions were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), which indicated that there were no signs of interaction of the drug with the carriers used in the case of solid dispersions containing higher polymeric contents (1:3 and 1:5). FM solid dispersions in the matrices of Gelucire 50/13 and Pluronic F-127 (1:3) were used to prepare pellets. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of pellets showed that the pellets have spherical shape and their size depends on the carrier used. The dissolution of the drug from either solid dispersion or pellets was performed. The dissolution study depicted that, the presence of the drug in solid dispersion enhanced its dissolution in comparison with the drug itself. Also, the drug release from the manufactured pellets was found to be improved in the case of solid dispersions (drug:carrier 1:3). A complete drug release occurred after 30 min from pellets containing solid dispersions, while only about 30% of the loaded FM was released from pellets containing untreated drug after 2 h. 相似文献

The dissolution properties of mixed compressed discs containing ibuprofen and one of three different acid excipients were investigated and the effect of various processing variables examined. Ibuprofen dissolution rate was shown to change depending on the acid excipient particle size used, the solubility of the excipient and its acid strength. Decreasing the excipient particle size resulted in a lowering of the ibuprofen dissolution rate. A decrease of an order of magnitude up to 20-fold could be achieved when smaller sized excipient particles were used. The observed dissolution phenomena associated with changing excipient particle size were explained in terms of percolation theory and dissolution from pores of a dimension similar to or larger than that of the aqueous boundary layer. It was also observed that the stronger the acid used as the excipient and the greater its solubility, the greater was its suppressing effect on the dissolution rate of the drug. 相似文献

17Beta-estradiol hemihydrate (17beta-E2) is a poorly water-soluble drug. Physical methods for improving the solubility and dissolution rate, e.g. micronization, have certain inherent disadvantages. The method of choice in this study, melt extrusion, proved to overcome many of the shortcomings of conventional methods. Different compositions of excipients such as PEG 6000, PVP (Kollidon 30) or a vinylpyrrolidone-vinylacetate-copolymer (Kollidon VA64) were used as polymers and Sucroester WE15 or Gelucire 44/14 as additives during melt extrusion. The solid dispersions resulted in a significant increase in dissolution rate when compared to the pure drug or to the physical mixtures. For example, a 30-fold increase in dissolution rate was obtained for a formulation containing 10% 17beta-E2, 50% PVP and 40% Gelucire 44/14. The solid dispersions were then processed into tablets. The improvement in the dissolution behavior was also maintained with the tablets. The USP XXIII requirement for estradiol tablets reaching greater than 75% drug dissolved after 60 min was obtained in this investigation. 相似文献

An amalgamation of solid dispersion and capillarity has been attempted in present study for enhancement of dissolution rate
of poorly soluble drugs. Flash evaporation technique was utilized for enhancement of the dissolution rate of piroxicam. One
of the major problems with this drug is its very low solubility in biological fluids, which results in poor bioavailability
after oral administration. An attempt was made to enhance the dissolution rate of piroxicam by converting it into porous solid
dispersion by flash evaporation method using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) 40,000 as a water-soluble carrier. The resulting solid
dispersions were characterized by DSC, FTIR, and X-ray diffraction. In vitro dissolution study revealed significant improvement
of dissolution profile of piroxicam. The release of drug from porous solid dispersions containing PVP was superior to those
of marketed product, conventional nonporous solid dispersion prepared by solvent evaporation method and drug alone. The steep
increase in dissolution rate of porous form is attributable to combined effect of solid dispersion and capillarity. 相似文献

Recently, self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) have been developed as a method to deliver lipophilic drugs. Gelucire 44/14 is an excipient, from the lauroyl macrogolglycerides family, producing a fine oil-in-water emulsion when introduced into an aqueous phase under gentle agitation as SEDDS, improving thereby solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs and their bioavailability. The aims of this study were to process Gelucire 44/14 into a powder by cryogenic grinding to produce solid oral dosage forms and to investigate influence of this process on different properties of a formulation made of Gelucire 44/14 and ketoprofen (90/10). Cryogenic grinding produced Gelucire 44/14 in a powder form and this process did not change its physical properties, emulsification capacities and dissolution performances of the formulation tested. However, interactions took place between ketoprofen and Gelucire 44/14 with a decrease of the melting peak and a reduction of the droplet size of the formed emulsion. The influence of drug-Gelucire 44/14 interactions must be investigated case by case in any formulations. 相似文献

A common challenge in the development of new drug substances is poor dissolution characteristics related to low aqueous solubility. One approach to overcome this problem is antisolvent precipitation in the presence of polymers or surfactants, which may enhance the dissolution rate through reduced particle size and increased wettability. In this study, a simple method based on size exclusion chromatography (SEC) with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) was developed for the determination of polymers and surfactants adsorbed to drug particles prepared by antisolvent precipitation of the poorly water-soluble model drug Lu 28-179. Detection of many polymeric excipients and surfactants is problematic due to the lack of UV-absorbing chromophores, but ELSD proved successful for the direct determination of the investigated compounds. A mixed mode column was used to effectively separate each of the excipient structures from the drug. The mobile phase comprised acetonitrile-ammonium formate (20mM; pH 6.5) (50:50, v/v) at a flow-rate of 0.6 ml/min. Qualification studies showed that the method was adequately sensitive and precise with limits of detection between 0.72 and 4.32 microg/ml. Linearity of the calibration curves was achieved by log-log modelling. The method was applied for determination of nine polymeric excipients and surfactants adsorbed to particles of the model drug. The extent of excipient adsorption varied between 0.07 and 1.39% (w/w) of the total particle weight. 相似文献

A combination of solid dispersion and surface adsorption techniques was used to enhance the dissolution of a poorly water-soluble drug, BAY 12-9566. In addition to dissolution enhancement, this method allows compression of the granulated dispersion into tablets. Gelucire 50/13 (polyglycolized glycerides) was used as the solid dispersion carrier. Hot-melt granulation was performed to adsorb the melt of the drug and Gelucire 50/13 onto the surface of Neusilin US2 (magnesium alumino silicate), the surface adsorbent. Dispersion granules using various ratios of drug–Gelucire 50/13–Neusilin US2 were thus prepared. The dissolution profiles of BAY 12-9566 from the dispersion granules and corresponding physical mixtures were evaluated using USP Type II apparatus at 75 rpm. The dissolution medium consisted of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid (HCl) with 1% w/v sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). Dissolution of BAY 12-9566 from the dispersion granules was enhanced compared to the physical mixture. The dissolution of BAY 12-9566 increased as a function of increased Gelucire 50/13 and Neusilin US2 loading and decreased with increased drug loading. In contrast to the usually observed decrease in dissolution on storage, an enhancement in dissolution was observed for the dispersion granules stored at 40°C/75% relative humidity (RH) for 2 and 4 weeks. Additionally, the flow and compressibility properties of dispersion granules were improved significantly when compared to the drug alone or the corresponding physical mixture. The ternary dispersion granules were compressed easily into tablets with up to 30% w/w drug loading. The extent of dissolution of drug from these tablets was greater than that from the uncompressed dispersion granules. 相似文献

Tacrolimus has a poor solubility in water ranging from 4 to 12 μg mL?1. The mean bioavailability is ~21 %.The present study was carried out with a view to enhance the dissolution rate of poorly water-soluble drug tacrolimus using Gelucire 44/14® and Gelucire 50/13® as carriers and lactose monohydrate as an adsorbent. A combination of melt and adsorption techniques was employed for the preparation of solid dispersions (SD) to make final product easy for handling. Phase solubility study was conducted to evaluate the effect of carriers on aqueous solubility of tacrolimus. In order to elucidate the mechanism of dissolution enhancement, solid state characteristics were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction. Mathematical modeling of in vitro dissolution data indicated the best fitting with Korsemeyer–Peppas model and the drug release kinetics primarily as Fickian/anomalous diffusion. All prepared solid dispersions showed dissolution improvement compared to pure drug, with Gelucire 50/13® as the superior carrier over Gelucire 44/14®. Almost similar dissolution profile was obtained as a function of storage time; this can be explained by no change in XRD and DSC pattern after 45 days storage period. 相似文献

The ability of liquid and semi-solid matrix (SSM) filling capsule technology to improve the dissolution rate of glibenclamide (GBD) was investigated. Semiquantitative estimation of GBD solubility in various vehicles was carried out. Tetraglycol was found to be the most efficient solubilizer. GBD was formulated in different concentrations as solutions in tetraglycol or tetraglycol/ PEG 6000 blend and as suspensions in SSM composed of Gelucire 44/14 as a base. Dissolution rate studies revealed that the release profiles of GBD from capsule formulations containing the drug in concentrations up to 3.5% (m/m) were comparable. 相似文献

Physical stability of solid dispersions of the antiviral agent UC-781 with PEG 6000, Gelucire 44/14 and PVP K30 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This paper describes the physical stability of solid dispersions of UC-781 with PEG 6000, Gelucire 44/14 and PVP K30 prepared by the solvent and melting methods. The concentration of the drug in the solid dispersions ranged from 5 to 80% w/w. The solid dispersions were stored at 4-8 and 25 degrees C (25% RH), then their physicochemical properties were analysed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffraction and dissolution studies as a function of storage time. The DSC curves of solid dispersions of UC-781 with PVP K30 did not show any melting peaks corresponding to UC-781 after storage, indicating no recrystallization of the drug. The DSC data obtained from PEG 6000 and Gelucire 44/14 showed some variations in melting peak temperatures and enthalpy of fusion of the carriers. It was shown that the enthalpy of fusion of PEG 6000 in the dispersions increased after storage; it was more pronounced for samples stored at 25 degrees C compared to those at 4-8 degrees C indicating the reorganization of the crystalline domains of the polymer. Similarly, the enthalpy of fusion of Gelucire 44/14 in the solid dispersions increased as a function of time. Dissolution of UC-781 from all solid dispersions decreased as a function of storage time. While these observations concurred with the DSC data for all solid dispersions, they were not reflected by X-ray powder diffraction data. It was concluded that it is the change of the physical state of the carriers and not that of the drug, which is responsible for the decreased dissolution properties of the solid dispersions investigated. 相似文献

BCS class II drugs usually suffer inadequate bioavailability as dissolution step is the absorption rate limiting step. In this work, the effect of solubility increase at the main absorption site for these drugs was investigated using risperidone as a drug model. Liquisolid technique was applied to prepare risperidone per-oral tablets of high dissolution rate at intestinal pH (6.8) using versatile nonionic surfactants of high solubilizing ability [Transcutol HP, Labrasol and Labrasol/Labrafil (1:1) mixture] as liquid vehicles at different drug concentrations (10–30%) and fixed (R). The prepared liquisolid tablets were fully evaluated and the dissolution rate at pH 6.8 was investigated. The formulae that showed significantly different release rate were selected and subjected to mathematical modeling using DE25, MDT and similarity factor (f2). Depending on mathematical modeling results, formula of higher dissolution rate was subjected to solid state characterization using differential scanning calorimetric (DSC), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Finally, the drug bioavailability was studied in comparison to conventional tablets in rabbits. Results showed that liquisolid tablet prepared using Labrasol/Labrafil (1:1) mixture as liquid vehicle containing 10% risperidone is a compatible formula with law drug crystallinity and higher dissolution rate (100% in 25?min). The drug bioavailability was significantly increased in comparison to the conventional tablets (1441.711?μg h/mL and 137.518?μg/mL in comparison to 321.011?μg h/mL and 38.673?μg/mL for AUC and Cpmax, respectively). This led to the conclusion that liquisolid technique was efficiently improved drug solubility and solubility increase of BCS class II drugs at their main absorption site significantly increases their bioavailability. 相似文献

Solid-state characterization of nifedipine solid dispersions 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The purpose of this study is to characterize the nature and solid-state properties of a solid dispersion system of nifedipine (33.3% w/w) in a polymer matrix consisting of Pluronic F68 (33.3% w/w) and Gelucire 50/13 (33.3% w/w). The nature of nifedipine dispersed in the matrix was studied by powder X-ray diffractometry (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). The rate and extent of water uptake of the solid dispersion were determined by weight gain. The dissolution rate of nifedipine solid dispersion was determined using Apparatus 2 of USP XXIII (1995). Quantitative PXRD showed that the saturation solubility of nifedipine in the polymer matrix is 2.1-3.0% w/w and indicated an excess of crystalline nifedipine in the solid dispersion. The maximum water uptake by the solid dispersion exposed to 75% RH at 45 degrees C was 3.3 times higher than for the dispersion exposed to 65% RH at 25 degrees C. Over 8 weeks, PXRD and DRIFTS of the nifedipine matrix stored at 25 or 4 degrees C were unchanged, showing constancy of crystallinity and intermolecular interactions. For a given mass of nifedipine (20 mg) and for a given particle size of nifedipine (<850 microm), the initial release rate of nifedipine from the solid dispersion was faster (46.2% of the nifedipine dissolved in 20 min) than that of the pure drug (1.2% of the nifedipine dissolved in 20 min). The results indicate that the nifedipine solid dispersion is physically stable over 8 weeks. Nifedipine is released faster from the solid dispersion than from the pure crystalline drug of the same particle size. 相似文献
