Bcs class iv oral drugs and absorption windows: Regional-dependent intestinal permeability of furosemide
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) class IV drugs (low-solubility low-permeability) are generally poor drug candidates, yet, ~5% of oral drugs on the market belong to this class. While solubility is often ...
Mucoadhesive gelatin buccal films with propranolol hydrochloride: Evaluation of mechanical, mucoadhesive, and biopharmaceutical properties
(MDPI AG, 2021)
This study processes and characterizes propranolol hydrochloride/gelatin mucoadhesivebuccal films. Two types of gelatin are used: Gelatin from porcine skin, type A (GA), and gelatinfrom bovine skin (GB). The influence ...
Digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing of atomoxetine hydrochloride tablets using photoreactive suspensions
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies are based on successive material printing layer-by-layer and are considered suitable for the production of dosage forms customized for a patient’s needs. In this study, tablets ...
The Role of Paracellular Transport in the Intestinal Absorption and Biopharmaceutical Characterization of Minoxidil
(MDPI, 2022)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate mechanisms behind the intestinal permeability of minoxidil, with special emphasis on paracellular transport, and elucidate the suitability of minoxidil to be a reference drug for ...
Simultaneous Physico-Mechanical and In Vivo Assessment towards Factual Skin Performance Profile of Topical Polymeric Film-Forming Systems
(MDPI, 2022)
Topical film-forming systems (FFS) change drastically after solvent displacement, therefore indicating their skin metamorphosis/transformation as a property of special regulatory and research interest. This paper deals ...
Insight into the formation of glimepiride nanocrystals by wet media milling
(MDPI, 2020)
Nanocrystal formation for the dissolution enhancement of glimepiride was attempted
by wet media milling. Di erent stabilizers were tested and the obtained nanosuspensions were
solidified by spray drying in presence of ...
Nano-and microcarriers as drug delivery systems for usnic acid: Review of literature
(MDPI, 2020)
Usnic acid is one of the most investigated lichen secondary metabolites, with several proven biological properties with potential medical relevance. However, its unfavorable physico-chemical properties, as well as observed ...
Comparative assessment of in vitro and in silico methods for aerodynamic characterization of powders for inhalation
(MDPI, 2021)
In vitro assessment of dry powders for inhalation (DPIs) aerodynamic performance is an inevitable test in DPI development. However, contemporary trends in drug development also implicate the use of in silico methods, e.g., ...
Improving tableting performance of lactose monohydrate by fluid-bed melt granulation co-processing
(MDPI, 2021)
Co-processing is commonly used approach to improve functional characteristics of pharmaceutical excipients to become suitable for tablet production by direct compression. This study aimed to improve tableting characteristics ...
3d printed buccal films for prolonged-release of propranolol hydrochloride: Development, characterization and bioavailability prediction
(MDPI, 2021)
Gelatin-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and gelatin-poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) mucoadhesive buccal films loaded with propranolol hydrochloride (PRH) were prepared by semi-solid extrusion 3D printing. The aim of this study was ...
