AB  - Tablet disintegration in gastrointestinal fluids and subsequent drug dissolution correlate with
wettability and water penetration into the tablet which are usually related to the physicochemical
properties of excipients. Liquid phase present within Liquisolid (LS) system was shown to
improve wettability and consequently increase bioavailability. The aim of this study was to
examine the wetting properties of LS systems prepared with four porous carriers, by using
different testing methods. ...

AB  - The processing of liquisolid systems (LSS), which are considered a promising approach
to improving the oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs, has proven challenging due to the
relatively high amount of liquid phase incorporated within them. The objective of this study was to
apply machine-learning tools to better understand the effects of formulation factors and/or tableting
process parameters on the flowability and compaction properties of LSS with silica-based mesoporous
excipients as carriers. In addition, the results of the flowability testing and dynamic compaction
analysis of liquisolid admixtures were used to build data sets and develop predictive multivariate
models. In the regression analysis, six different algorithms were used to model the relationship
between tensile strength (TS), the target variable, and eight other input variables. The AdaBoost
algorithm provided the best-fit model for predicting TS (coefficient of determination = 0.94), with
ejection stress (ES), compaction pressure, and carrier type being the parameters that influenced its
performance the most. The same algorithm was best for classification (precision = 0.90), depending on
the type of carrier used, with detachment stress, ES, and TS as variables affecting the performance of
the model. Furthermore, the formulations with Neusilin® US2 were able to maintain good flowability
and satisfactory values of TS despite having a higher liquid load compared to the other two carriers.

AB  - Oralno-disperzibilne tablete (ODT) predstavljaju relativno nove čvrste farmaceutske oblike koji  se  brzo  raspadaju  u  usnoj  duplji,  bez  dodatkavode (1). Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se analiziraju ODT preparati dostupni na tržištu evropskih zemalja (Nemačka, SŠpanija, Slovenija, Hrvatska, Srbija). Istraživanje je zasnovano na pretrazi komercijalno dostupnih ODT-a  i  njihovog  sastava. Utvrđeno je da je u Nemačkoj dostupno 563 preparata tipa ODT (28 različitih lekovitih supstanci),  dok  je  u  Srbiji  prisutno  samo  19  ODT-a (8 različitih lekovitih supstanci). Većina ODT preparata sadrži lekovite supstance iz grupe antipsihotika (26,6–54,2%), najčešće olanzapin, što se može objasniti boljim prihvatanjem terapije. Izuzetak je SŠpanija, gde su ODT  sa  antimigrenicima  najčešće (22,3%), verovatno usled lakše primene i gutanja ODT preparata (1,2). Analizom sastava ODT-a primećeno je da se kombinacija manitol-mikrokristalna celuloza najčešće dodaje kao sredstvo za dopunjavanje (69,1%). Brza dezintegracija, kao kritično svojstvo kvaliteta ODT-a, postiže se različitim pristupima. Većina preparata (66,0%) sadrži krospovidon kao superdezintegrator. Prijatan ukus ODT obezbeđen je kombinovanjem zaslađivača i aroma. Aspartam je veoma zastupljen u preparatima (74,2%), i do devet puta češće od ostalih zaslađivača. Veća razlika među preparatima uočena je u slučaju aroma: komercijalno dostupne ODT sadržale su aromu peperminta (39,2%), pomorandže (20,6%), itd. Međutim, 17,5% ODT nije sadržalo aromu, što ukazuje da je prijatan ukus postignut pomoću sredstva za dopunjavanje i zaslađivača (npr. manitol, saharoza). Veliki broj komercijalno  dostupnih  ODT  preparata  ukazuje  na  prednosti  za  pacijente,  posebno  u  slučaju psihijatrijskih bolesti i migrene. Tipičan predstavnik ODT preparata na tržištu sadrži manitol-mikrokristalnu celulozu, krospovidon, aspartam i aromu.
AB  - Orodispersible tablets (ODTs) are relatively new solid dosage forms that disintegrate rapidly in the oral cavity, without the addition of water (1). The aim of this research was to analyze ODTs available  on  the  market  in  representative  European  countries  (Germany, Spain, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia).  The  research  was  based  on  investigation  of  commercially  available  ODTs  and  their composition. In Germany, 563 ODT products are available (28 different active ingredients), while only 19  ODTs  are  present  in  Serbia(8 different active ingredients). The majority of ODTs contain antipsychotic  drugs  (26.6–54.2%),  particularly olanzapine,  presumably  due  to  better  patient compliance. The only exception is Spain, where antimigraine ODTs are the most frequent (22.3%), which may be attributed to easier administration and swallowing (1,2). Regarding ODT composition, the mannitol-microcrystalline cellulose combination was mostly used as a filler/diluent (69.1%). Fast disintegration, as ODT critical quality attribute, is achieved by different approaches. Crospovidone was found in the majority of formulations (66.0%). In order to ensure apleasant taste, sweeteners and flavors are combined. Aspartame was present up to nine times more than other sweeteners (74.2%). More flexibility was observed regarding flavoring and ODTs contained peppermint (39.2%), orange (20.6%), etc. However, 17.5% of products contained no flavoring, indicating that pleasant taste was achieved by fillers and sweeteners, e.g., mannitol and sucrose. The high number  of  ODTs  available on the market indicates the advantages for patients, particularly in the case of psychiatric diseases  and  migraine.  A  typical  ODT  product  contains  mannitol-microcrystalline  cellulose, crospovidone, aspartame and a flavor.

AB  - Thin films are polymeric strips that disintegrate in the
oral cavity and consist of a film-forming agent and an
active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). Generally, thin
films disintegrate within seconds, but their composition
can be modified to allow slower disintegration and release
of the loaded API, depending on the properties of the film.
Research into various aspects of oral thin films is
progressing rapidly, but thin films are also being discussed
in the context of a broader range of other dosage forms,
such as carrier for multiparticulates or nano-based dosage
forms and for the fixed-dose combinations (Turković et al.,
2022). Large amounts of data are being generated over the
years, so integrating machine learning algorithms can be
beneficial to gain more in-depth knowledge about the thin
film properties and interactions between film constituents.
Gradient boosted tree is one of machine learning tools that
perform regression or classification by combining the
outputs from individual decision trees. This work is aimed
to explore the possibility of integrating a machine learning
approach in evaluation of experimental data obtained by
films characterization. Potential application of Gradient
boosted trees for thin films characterization based on their
disintegration properties as film critical quality attribute
was investigated.

oral cavity and consist of a film-forming agent and an
active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). Generally, thin
films disintegrate within seconds, but their composition
can be modified to allow slower disintegration and release
of the loaded API, depending on the properties of the film.
Research into various aspects of oral thin films is
progressing rapidly, but thin films are also being discussed
in the context of a broader range of other dosage forms,
such as carrier for multiparticulates or nano-based dosage
forms and for the fixed-dose combinations (Turković et al.,
2022). Large amounts of data are being generated over the
years, so integrating machine learning algorithms can be
beneficial to gain more in-depth knowledge about the thin
film properties and interactions between film constituents.
Gradient boosted tree is one of machine learning tools that
perform regression or classification by combining the
outputs from individual decision trees. This work is aimed
to explore the possibility of integrating a machine learning
approach in evaluation of experimental data obtained by
films characterization. Potential application of Gradient
boosted trees for thin films characterization based on their
disintegration properties as film critical quality attribute
was investigated.",

AB  - Tablet disintegration in gastrointestinal fluids and the resulting increase in surface
area available for drug dissolution is one of the preconditions for achieving acceptable
bioavailability (1). Disintegrant addition shortens the disintegration time, but it can also
affect flowability and mechanical properties of liquisolid systems (2). The aim of this study
was to examine the influence of superdisintegrant type and concentration on flowability,
tensile strength and disintegration time of liquisolid systems prepared using three different
carriers.
The admixtures were prepared in a fluid bed processor. Syloid ® XDP3050, Neusilin®
US2 and Fujicalin ® were used as carriers, with liquid phase (macrogol 400) content of
40.4%, 54.8% and 14.8%, respectively, and carrier to coating material (colloidal silicon
dioxide) ratio R=30. Superdisintegrant (croscarmellose sodium, crospovidone, sodium starch
glycolate) concentration ranged from 2 to 5%. Admixtures’ flowability and compacts’ tensile
strength and disintegration time were determined. Admixtures with Fujicalin® showed the
best flowability. Superdisintegrant addition decreased flowability, except for Syloid®
XDP3050 admixtures where flowability improved with increase in disintegrant
concentration. Sodium starch glycolate had the most pronounced influence on the compact
tensile strength. Regardless of the carrier used, the increase in its concentration led to
decrease in tensile strength. Notable differences in the disintegration time were observed,
depending on the type of carrier and superdisintegrant. Compacts with Fujicalin®
disintegrated within the required time without the superdisintegrant addition. The shortest
disintegration time, for compacts with Syloid ® XDP3050 and Neusilin® US2, as well as the
highest tensile strength, for compacts with Syloid ® XDP3050, were achieved with
croscarmellose sodium.

tečno-čvrstih sistema pripremljenih upotrebom tri različita nosača. Smeše su pripremljene u

kao nosači, uz udeo tečne faze (makrogol 400) od 40,4%, 54,8% i 14,8%, redom, pri odnosu
nosača i sredstva za oblaganje (koloidni silicijum-dioksid) R=30. Udeo superdezintegratora
(kroskarmeloza-natrijum, krospovidon, natrijum-skrobglikolat) variran je u opsegu 2-5%.
Ispitana je protočnost, a nakon komprimovanja na ekscentar tablet mašini, kompaktima
određene zatezna čvrstina i raspadljivost. Najbolja protočnost primećena je kod smeša sa
Fujicalin®‐om. Dodatak superdezintegratora je snižavao protočnost, osim kod smeša sa
Syloid ® XDP3050 gde se povećanjem koncentracije superdezintegratora protočnost
poboljšavala. Najizraženiji uticaj na zateznu čvrstinu kompakata, bez obzira na vrstu nosača,
pokazao je natrijum-skrobglikolat. Povećanje udela ovog superdezintegratora dovelo je do
sniženja zatezne čvrstine kod ispitivanih kompakata. Uočene su znatne razlike u vremenu
raspadanja kompakata u zavisnosti od vrste nosača i superdezintegratora, a kompakti sa
Fujicalin®‐om su se raspadali za predviđeno vreme i bez dodatka superdezintegratora.
Kroskarmeloza-natrijum je superdezintegrator sa kojim je postignuto najkraće vreme

AB  - Orodispersible films (ODFs) have recently emerged as innovative dosage form which provides distinct advantages in the patient centric pharmaceutical drug product design due to inherent dosing flexibility and improved patient acceptability. Although their potential advantages in pharmacotherapy are well recognized, there is still a lot of research work to be done in order to explore and understand complex relationships among different formulation factors, film mechanical properties, and their bioperformance. Lack of standardized characterization methods and relevant specifications pose additional limitation for their wider application. In the present study, in-depth review of the available body of data published on ODF development and characterization was performed. In total, 112 papers published between November 2008 and April 2022 were taken into consideration for dataset building. Data collected have been critically evaluated and compiled into the representative dataset formed around three domains, namely: (A) Manufacturing method and composition; (B) ODF characteristics; and (C) ODF sensory attributes. Based on the investigated dataset, an attempt was made to identify the acceptable range of Critical Quality Attributes (CQA) values and propose ODF specific Quality Targeted Product Profile (QTPP) as a foundation which should guide and facilitate pharmaceutical development.

The aim of this study was to fabricate different size MPUs by selective laser sintering (SLS), using different polymers, and investigate their processability based on the SeDeM Expert System approach. MPUs (1- or 2-mm size) were prepared with model drug (ibuprofen or caffeine), polymer (poly(ethylene)oxide (PEO), ethyl cellulose (EC) or methacrylic acid-ethyl acrylate copolymer (MA-EA)) and printing aid. Comprehensive sample characterization was performed and experimentally obtained parameters were mathematically transformed and evaluated using the SeDeM Expert System framework. The obtained samples exhibited irregular shape, despite the spherical printing object design. Polymer incorporated notably affected MPUs properties. The obtained samples exhibited low bulk density, good flowability-, as well as stability-related parameters, which indicated their suitability for filling into capsules or sachets. Low density values implied that compressibility enhancing excipients may be required for MPUs incorporation in tablets. Samples containing EC and MA-EA were found suitable for compression, due to high compacts tensile strength. The obtained results indicate that SeDeM Expert System may extended from powder compressibility evaluation tool to framework facilitating powders/multiparticulate units processing.

e.g. orodispersible tablets, was described in the literature
(2). However, the attempts in 3D printing of
multiparticulate dosage forms are scarce (3) and no SLS
printed granules were described in the literature.
The aim of this work was to prepare granules by SLS
printing and investigate the effect of formulation factors
(polymer type, model drug and particle size) on the critical
quality attributes of the obtained granules. ...",

AB  - 1. INTRODUCTION
Orodispersible films (ODF) have emerged as innovative dosage forms that provide wide variety of advantages for patients and manufacturers over conventional dosage forms. The prominent characteristic of ODFs is fast disintegration followed by good patients acceptability [1]. Therefore, relevant disintegration time (DT) is usually considered as ODF critical quality attribute. Extensive research on ODFs is generating a lot of data, but lack of standardization is the main obstacle that limits their comparative evaluation. The following work aims to explore literature data on ODFs characteristics using the predictive data-classification algorithm Support vector machine (SVM) and assess its applicability in pharmaceutical development based on the set of experimentally obtained data.
2. MATERIALS AND METHODS
2.1. Materials
Hydroxypropyl cellulose (Klucel GF, Ashland, USA), ethanol (≥99.8%, Honeywell, Charlotte, NC, USA) and glycerol, 85% (w/w) (Ph. Eur.) were used for preparation of printing and casting dispersion.
2.2. Data pre-processing
Comprehensive data exploration has been conducted in the PubMed database using most common synonyms for ODFs with fifteen synonyms in singular and plural. Built database had following attributes: manufacturing approach, polymer selection, polymer molecular weight (KDa), polymer load (%), mechanical properties (tensile strength (MPa), Young's modulus (MPa), elongation at break (%)), disintegration method and disintegration time (DT) (s).
2.3. ODF preparation and characterisation
Polymer dispersions for solvent casting and semi-solid extrusion 3D printing were prepared by dispersing HPC in ethanol:glicerol solution followed by continuous stirring on the magnetic stirrer. Prepared dispersions were: (i) casted on a unit-dose plexiglas plates, or (ii) printed using Ultimaker 2+ (Ultimaker, , Netherlands). ODFs were characterized in terms of mechanical properties using Z-LX Table-Top Testing Machine (Shimadzu, Japan) and DT using adapted compendial tester (Erweka ZT52, Germany) with a weight.
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1. Data pre-processing
274 papers (without reviews) were identified via search, of which 112 were included in the database. Nominal data from literature was transformed into numerical, using coding operator so that each nominal data had corresponding numerical value. Critical attributes for films fast disintegration were derived. 18 polymers were included as categorical data and were further differentiated on the basis of molecular weight. Values for most commonly evaluated mechanical properties were included as numerical data. Different DT methods were classified in seven classes (Table 1), while the manufacturing methods were classified in five classes. RapidMiner Studio 9.10 (RapidMiner, Dortmund, Germany) was used to transform data and employ SMV algorithm.
3.2. SVM model prediction
Attributes with the highest weight were polymer load and DT method employed (Figure 1). The polymer type and characteristic did have conclusive effects on DT as their weight varied during data mining. This can be attributed to inconclusive data provided in papers and lot of missing values for those attributes. Mechanical properties had low weight, which can be explained with the broad value range for those attributes. Different research groups had different approach to disintegration testing, which lowered model precision as it was reported that SVM does not have high accuracy when data is imbalanced [3]. Relative error value was 20%, which can be considered as high, but, having in mind great diversity in presented data and methodology, obtained value is still acceptable for the pilot study.
3.3. Experimental validation
HPC-based films prepared by 3D printing had tensile strength, elongation at break and Young’s modulus of 3.5 MPa, 137% and 5 MPa, respectively. Average DT was 69 s. For casted films, relevant values were 3.4 MPa, 105% and 3 MPa, and DT was 27 s. Experimentally obtained results were entered into model simulator (Figure 2) to simulate situation reflecting the experimental set up in which HPC-based films were prepared by 3D printing and solvent casting, and relevant attribute values obtained by samples characterization. In the case were manufacturing method was set to be 3D printing (coded as 1) predicted DT value was close to experimentally obtained value, i.e. 71.7 and 69 s, respectively. When solvent casting method was considered, predicted DT value was remarkedly higher than the experimentally obtained one, indicating bad predictability. It might be assumed that good predictability obtained in the case of 3D printed films is associated with lower data variability due to more simple sample composition and robust preparation method. In the case of casted films, data was much more complex due to a higher number of research papers and approaches to characterisation.
4. CONCLUSION
The obtained results indicate that SVM algorithm can be employed to predict ODF DT value based on the dataset created using literature data. However, in order to obtain meaningful predictions, larger dataset, with fewer inconsistences and less missing values would be advantageous.

AB  - Mixing selected liquid SMEDDS with polymethacrylate polymers (Eudragit ®) led to
solidification of the samples to form solid, ductile, transparent systems (1). The purpose of
this study was to define mechanical properties and long-term stability of novel simvastatin-
loaded SMEDDS-based drug delivery systems. SMEDDS-based formulations were prepared
by adding liquid SMEDDS (10% oleoyl macrogol-6 glycerides and 90% caprylocaproyl
macrogol-8 glycerides/macrogol-15-hydroxystearate, in 3 ratios: 1:1, 2:1 and 3:1) to
Eudragit ® S100 or Eudragit ® S100/Eudragit ® L100 combination (in 1:1 ratio), until
SMEDDS/polymer ratio 2:1 w/w was reached. SMEDDS-based formulations with simvastatin
(SV) were prepared by dissolving SV (5%) into liquid SMEDDS and mixing with
polymethacrylate polymers in the same ratio. Prepared formulations were evaluated in
terms of their mechanical properties and long-term stability. The results indicated that the
increase in the caprylocaproyl macrogol-8 glycerides concentration resulted in higher
penetration force (F1 S100–F3 S100 = 5.83-7.22 N and F1 SL100-F3 SL100 = 4.20-5.99 N).
However, addition of SV was negatively correlated with the hardness, i.e. samples with SV
were softer in comparison to unloaded samples. Moreover, it was noticeable that
formulations with Eudragit ® S100 had greater penetration force values compared to
formulations containing Eudragit ® S100/Eudragit ® L100. After six months of storage at
room and elevated temperature, only slight decrease in SV content (less than 5%) was
observed in these samples. This study demonstrated that novel SMEDDS-based formulations
with higher concentration of caprylocaproyl macrogol-8 glycerides and those with Eudragit ®
S100 were more robust, which may further serve as a guide for formulating tailor-made
formulations.

supstance. Takođe, uočeno je da uzorci sa polimerom Eudragit ® S100 imaju već e vrednosti
sile penetracije, u poređenju sa formulacijama koje sadrže kombinaciju Eudragit ®
S100/Eudragit ® L100. Posle šest meseci skladištenja uzoraka na sobnoj i povišenoj

AB  - An understanding of material properties and processing effects on solid dosage forms
performance is required within the Quality-by-design approach to pharmaceutical development.
Several research groups have developed mathematical approaches aiming to facilitate the
selection of formulation composition and the manufacturing technology. These approaches are
based on material particulate, bulk and compression-related properties. This paper provides
theoretical assumptions and a critical review of different mathematical approaches for
processability characterization of powders and multiparticulate units.
Mathematical approaches have mainly been developed for directly compressible materials,
but sometimes other manufacturing technologies, such as roller compaction and wet granulation,
are also considered. The obtained compact tensile strength has been implemented in the majority
of approaches, as an important characteristic describing compact mechanical properties.
Flowability should be also evaluated, since it affects sample processability. Additionally, particle
size and shape, material density and compressibility, compactibility and tabletability profiles have
been also distinguished as relevant properties for solid dosage form development.
The application of mathematical approaches may contribute to the mechanistic
understanding of critical material attributes and facilitate dosage form development and
optimization. However, it is essential to select the appropriate one, based on the intended dosage
form characteristics, in order to ensure that all relevant powder/multiparticulate units
characteristics are implemented and critically evaluated.
AB  - Poznavanje uticaja svojstava materijala i procesnih parametara na karakteristike čvrstih farmaceutskih oblika predstavlja osnovu Quality-by-design pristupa razvoju lekova. Kako bi bio olakšan razvoj formulacije i izbor proizvodne tehnologije, više istraživačkih grupa opisalo je matematičke pristupe, koji se zasnivaju na čestičnim karakteristikama čestica, osobinama praška i ponašanju materijala pri kompresiji. U ovom radu prikazana su teorijska razmatranja i kritički pregled matematičkih pristupa razvijenih za karakterizaciju praškova i višečestičnih sistema. Ovi matematički pristupi su, generalno, razvijeni za karakterizaciju materijala pogodnih za direktnu kompresiju. Međutim, u nekim slučajevima se razmatraju i druge tehnologije, kao što su suva i vlažna granulacija. Među opisanim karakteristikama materijala, zatezna čvrstina se izdvaja kao jedna od najznačajnijih za procenu mehaničkih svojstava kompakta. Potrebno je ispitati i protočnost materijala. Takođe, veličina i oblik čestica, gustina materijala i profili koji opisuju kompresibilnost, kompaktibilnost i tabletabilnost materijala prepoznati su kao karakteristike koje značajno utiču na razvoj čvrstih farmaceutskih oblika. Primena matematičkih pristupa u karakterizaciji praškova i višečestičnih sistema može doprineti mehanističkom razumevanju svojstava materijala i olakšati razvoj i optimizaciju čvrstih farmaceutskih oblika lekova. Međutim, ključno je odabrati odgovarajući pristup, zavisno od željenih karakteristika finalnog preparata, kako bi sva kritična svojstva materijala bila ispitana i kritički razmotrena.

abstract = "An understanding of material properties and processing effects on solid dosage forms
performance is required within the Quality-by-design approach to pharmaceutical development.
Several research groups have developed mathematical approaches aiming to facilitate the
selection of formulation composition and the manufacturing technology. These approaches are
based on material particulate, bulk and compression-related properties. This paper provides
theoretical assumptions and a critical review of different mathematical approaches for
processability characterization of powders and multiparticulate units.
Mathematical approaches have mainly been developed for directly compressible materials,
but sometimes other manufacturing technologies, such as roller compaction and wet granulation,
are also considered. The obtained compact tensile strength has been implemented in the majority
of approaches, as an important characteristic describing compact mechanical properties.
Flowability should be also evaluated, since it affects sample processability. Additionally, particle
size and shape, material density and compressibility, compactibility and tabletability profiles have
been also distinguished as relevant properties for solid dosage form development.
The application of mathematical approaches may contribute to the mechanistic
understanding of critical material attributes and facilitate dosage form development and
optimization. However, it is essential to select the appropriate one, based on the intended dosage
form characteristics, in order to ensure that all relevant powder/multiparticulate units
characteristics are implemented and critically evaluated., Poznavanje uticaja svojstava materijala i procesnih parametara na karakteristike čvrstih farmaceutskih oblika predstavlja osnovu Quality-by-design pristupa razvoju lekova. Kako bi bio olakšan razvoj formulacije i izbor proizvodne tehnologije, više istraživačkih grupa opisalo je matematičke pristupe, koji se zasnivaju na čestičnim karakteristikama čestica, osobinama praška i ponašanju materijala pri kompresiji. U ovom radu prikazana su teorijska razmatranja i kritički pregled matematičkih pristupa razvijenih za karakterizaciju praškova i višečestičnih sistema. Ovi matematički pristupi su, generalno, razvijeni za karakterizaciju materijala pogodnih za direktnu kompresiju. Međutim, u nekim slučajevima se razmatraju i druge tehnologije, kao što su suva i vlažna granulacija. Među opisanim karakteristikama materijala, zatezna čvrstina se izdvaja kao jedna od najznačajnijih za procenu mehaničkih svojstava kompakta. Potrebno je ispitati i protočnost materijala. Takođe, veličina i oblik čestica, gustina materijala i profili koji opisuju kompresibilnost, kompaktibilnost i tabletabilnost materijala prepoznati su kao karakteristike koje značajno utiču na razvoj čvrstih farmaceutskih oblika. Primena matematičkih pristupa u karakterizaciji praškova i višečestičnih sistema može doprineti mehanističkom razumevanju svojstava materijala i olakšati razvoj i optimizaciju čvrstih farmaceutskih oblika lekova. Međutim, ključno je odabrati odgovarajući pristup, zavisno od željenih karakteristika finalnog preparata, kako bi sva kritična svojstva materijala bila ispitana i kritički razmotrena.",

AB  - Thin films are relatively new drug forms, which contain one or more active
substances, dispersed or adsorbed on a polymeric carrier (1). The aim of this work was to
evaluate the effects of the preparation and formulation factors on film critical quality
attributes. Films were prepared by solvent-casting and 3D printing of dispersion on a
Ultimaker 2+. Dispersion consisted of hydroxypropylcellulose with or without the addition
of sodium-alginate. Caffeine and ibuprofen were used as model drugs. The films were
characterized in terms of mass, thickness, moisture content (LJ16-Moisture Analizer) and
mechanical characteristics (EZ-LKS-Table-TopMachine). Obtained results indicate that 3D
films had higher mass and thickness compared to casted films, except for
hydroxypropylcellulose/sodium alginate/caffeine sample (37.6 and 59.0 mg/cm2 ; 526 and
642 μm). High content of dispersed substances can cause a change in polymer drying
behavior, which is reflected in film characteristics. Dissolving ibuprofen in the initial
dispersion, led to film increased elasticity and decreased tensile strength, negatively
affecting handling and stickiness of the films prepared by either method. Differences
between methods were most pronounced in films with dispersed caffeine or sodium-
alginate. Sodium-alginate generally decreased, and caffeine increased flexibility. The
preparation process did not affect the moisture content in samples, although the polymer
drying differed between two preparation methods. Increased moisture content was
generally accompanied by decreased flexibility, except for samples with ibuprofen. Obtained
results indicate significant effects of the formulation process and composition on the film
characteristics. Dissolved or dispersed substance content in formulation should be adapted
to the chosen preparation method.
AB  - Tanki oralni filmovi predstavljaju noviji farmaceutski oblik leka, koji sadrži jednu ili
više aktivnih supstanci dispergovanih ili adsorbovanih na polimernom nosaču (1). Cilj ovog
rada bio je ispitivanje uticaja postupka izrade i faktora formulacije na kritična svojstva
kvaliteta filmova. Filmovi su izrađivani izlivanjem disperzije u kalupe ili metodom 3D štampe
(Ultimaker 2+). Disperzija se sastojala od hidroksipropilceluloze, sa ili bez dodatka natrijum-
alginata. Model aktivne supstance bile su kofein i ibuprofen. Karakterizacija filmova
obuhvatila je određivanje mase, debljine, udela vlage (LJ16-MoistureAnalyzer) i mehaničkih
karakteristika (EZ-LX-Table-TopMachine). Dobijeni rezultati su pokazali da su 3D štampani
filmovi imali veću masu i debljinu u odnosu na izlivene filmove, osim u slučaju uzorka
hidroksipropilceluloza/natrijum-alginat/kofein (37,6 i 59,0 mg/cm 2; 526 i 642 μm). Visok
udeo dispergovanih supstanci u uzorku može uzrokovati promenu u ponašanju polimera
prilikom sušenja što se odražava na karakteristike filmova. Rastvaranje ibuprofena dovelo je
do povećanja elastičnosti i smanjenja zatezne čvrstine filmova u slučaju oba postupka izrade,
što je imalo negativan efekat na lakoću rukovanja i lepljivost. Postupak izrade imao je najveći
uticaj na karakteristike filmova sa natrijum-alginatom i filmova koji su sadržali kofein.
Natrijum-alginat je generalno smanjivao, a kofein povećavao fleksibilnost filmova. Postupak
izrade nije imao uticaj na udeo vlage, iako je sušenje filmova bilo značajno različito kod ova
dva postupka. Povećanje udela vlage uglavnom je pratilo smanjenje fleksibilnosti filmova,
osim kod uzoraka sa ibuprofenom. Dobijeni rezultati ukazuju na značajan uticaj postupka
izrade i sastava formulacije na karakteristike tankih filmova. Udeo rastvorenih ili
dispergovanih supstanci u formulaciji moraju biti prilagođeni odabranom postupku izrade.

AB  - The estimated prevalence of swallowing problems and dysphagia is 22%, particularly
among pediatric and geriatric population. The drug administration for these individuals is
challenging and efforts are being made to enhance solid dosage forms swallowing. The aim of
this work was to characterize inulin-based puddings as potential vehicula for solid dosage
forms administration. Three marketed instant puddings were prepared according to
instructions provided by the manufacturer (mixing with the appropriate amount of cold
milk, without cooking) and characterized regarding pH value, rheological characteristics and
textural properties (hardness and adhesiveness). The investigated samples differed in terms
of inulin content, as gelling agent (3.3-8%), and aroma (vanilla, chocolate, coco). Generally,
samples exhibited comparable characteristics. pH values of prepared puddings ranged from
6.57 to 6.90. Apparent viscosity values, measured at 50 s -1 , were 4850-16800 mPas,
indicating that puddings belong to class 4 (extremely thick drinks), according to
International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative Framework (1), suitable for patients
suffering from advanced dysphagia. Samples’ hardness values ranged from 54.6 mN (coco
pudding) to 63.9 mN (chocolate pudding), whereas adhesiveness ranged from 30.26 gs (coco
pudding) to 40.64 gs (chocolate pudding), indicating the soft structure and swallowing
suitability, without the need for intense chewing (2). The investigated puddings exhibited
suitable characteristics in terms of viscosity and textural properties for patients with
advanced dysphagia and represent promising approach as vehicula for solid dosage forms
administration in the case of this population.

AB  - Liquisolid systems are emerging formulation approach for poorly soluble drugs, based on adsorption/absorption of drug dispersion and obtaining free-flowing powder with good compressibility. SeDeM Expert System represents a powder processability evaluation method. It may provide additional insight into liquisolid systems critical quality attributes, but the contribution of this approach remains to be explored. The aims of this study were: pellet preparation by combination of liquisolid technology and water granulation/extrusion, evaluation of liquisolid based systems (pellets/admixtures) and investigation into the applicability of SeDeM Expert System in liquisolid systems characterization. Pellets/admixtures were prepared with microcrystalline cellulose as carrier and crospovidone/silicon dioxide as coating agent. Ibuprofen solution in polyethylene glycol 400 was used as liquid phase. After comprehensive sample characterization, experimentally obtained parameters were mathematically transformed and evaluated in the SeDeM Expert System framework. Pellets exhibited low aspect ratio and excellent flowability, despite liquid load up to 52.2%. The investigated liquisolid admixtures exhibited good flowability and faster drug dissolution than pellets. Single pellet crushing test results exhibited strong correlation with compact indentation hardness and may be used as indentation hardness predictor. SeDeM Expert System provides useful insight into liquisolid system processability and comparative evaluation and it may facilitate final solid dosage form development.

AB  - Inkjet printing is novel approach in drug manufacturing that enables dispensing precisevolumes of ink onto substrates. Optimal substrate properties including suitable mechanical charac-teristic are recognized as crucial to achieve desired dosage form performance upon administration.Identification of relevant quality attributes and their quantification is subject of intensive scientificresearch. The aim of this work was to explore applicability of different materials as printing substratesand explore contribution of the investigated substrate properties to its printability. Substrates werecharacterized with regards to uniformity, porosity, disintegration time, mechanical properties anddrug dissolution. Experimentally obtained values were mathematically transformed and the obtainedresults were presented as relevant radar charts. It was shown that structurally different substratesmay be employed for orodispersible films inkjet printing.  Main disadvantage of single-polymerfilms was low drug load, and their printability was dependent on film flexibility and mechanicalstrength. Structured orodispersible film templates exhibited favorable mechanical properties anddrug load capacity.  Wafer edible sheets were characterized with high mechanical resistance andbrittleness which somewhat diminished printability, but did not hinder high drug load. Obtainedresults provide insight into application of different materials as printing substrates and contribute tounderstanding of substrate properties which can affect printability.

AB  - The aim of this study was to optimize fluid bed granulation and tablets compression processes using design space approach. Type of diluent, binder concentration, temperature during mixing, granulation and drying, spray rate, and atomization pressure were recognized as critical formulation and process parameters. They were varied in the first set of experiments in order to estimate their influences on critical quality attributes, that is, granules characteristics (size distribution, flowability, bulk density, tapped density, Carr's index, Hausner's ratio, and moisture content) using Plackett-Burman experimental design. Type of diluent and atomization pressure were selected as the most important parameters. In the second set of experiments, design space for process parameters (atomization pressure and compression force) and its influence on tablets characteristics was developed. Percent of paracetamol released and tablets hardness were determined as critical quality attributes. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were applied in order to determine design space. ANNs models showed that atomization pressure influences mostly on the dissolution profile, whereas compression force affects mainly the tablets hardness. Based on the obtained ANNs models, it is possible to predict tablet hardness and paracetamol release profile for any combination of analyzed factors.
