Denture base resins.

Abstract

Numerous investigations have concluded that the conventional acrylic resins, processed with the usual technique of compression molding, produce dentures that are just as stable in dimension and as satisfactory as dentures produced with special resins and elaborate processing equipment. The physical properties of injection molded dentures are not superior to those of acrylic resin dentures produced by the usual carefully controlled compression molding techniques. Cold-curing acrylic resins produce dentures that are as satisfactory as those made from heat-curing resins.

The application of generalized regression neural network in the modeling and optimization of aspirin extended release tablets with Eudragit RS PO as matrix substance.

The objective of this work is to use a generalized regression neural network (GRNN) in the design of extended-release aspirin tablets. As model formulations, 10 kinds of aspirin matrix tablets were prepared. Eudragit RS PO was used as matrix substance. The amount of Eudragit RS PO and compression pressure were selected as causal factors. In-vitro dissolution-time profiles at four different sampling times, as well as coefficients n (release order) and log k (release constant) from the Peppas equation were estimated as release parameters. A set of release parameters and causal factors were used as tutorial data for the GRNN and analyzing using a computer. A GRNN model was constructed. The optimized GRNN model was used for prediction of formulation with desired in vitro drug release. For two tested formulations there was very good agreement between the GRNN predicted and observed in vitro profiles and estimated coefficients. Calculated difference (f(1)) and similarity (f(2)) factors indicate that there is no difference between predicted and experimental observed drug release profiles. This work illustrates the potential for an artificial neural network, GRNN, to assist in development of extended-release dosage forms. This method can be employed to achieve a desired in vitro dissolution profile.

Influence of chloride ion exchange on the permeability and drug release of Eudragit RS 30 D films.

The objective of this study was to investigate the permeability of the cationic acrylic copolymer Eudragit RS 30 D as a function of the anionic buffer species of the dissolution media with special emphasis on the chloride ion exchange of the polymer. Indirect impedance measurement on isolated Eudragit RS films was used to investigate the mechanisms controlling membrane permeability. The chloride ion exchange was determined using capillary electrophoresis during dissolution testing of Eudragit RS 30 D-coated theophylline beads. The dissolution media investigated included various concentrations of sodium acetate, succinic acid and di-sodium succinate. The results of this study demonstrated that the degree of polymer swelling and related drug release was a function of the chloride counterion interaction with the polymer's quarternary ammonium groups. Chloride exchange during the dissolution test with other anions including acetate or succinate ions, resulted in significant changes in the polymer diffusion properties. The ion exchange proved to be the responsible mechanism of controlling polymer permeability as a function of anionic species and concentration. The order of anion permeability enhancing effect was acetate>mono-succinate>disuccinate. The ion exchange could be inhibited significantly by the addition of chloride ions to the dissolution medium.

Carboxyethylester-polyrotaxanes as a new calcium chelating polymer: synthesis, calcium binding and mechanism of trypsin inhibition.

A carboxyethylester-polyrotaxane was synthesized as a novel calcium chelating polymer in the field of oral drug delivery and characterized in terms of mechanism of trypsin inhibition. Here, carboxyethylester (CEE) groups are introduced to all the primary hydroxyl groups in alpha-cyclodextrins (alpha-CDs), which are threaded onto a poly(ethylene glycol) chain capped with bulky end-groups (polyrotaxane). The solubility of the CEE-polyrotaxane in physiological conditions increased with pH, indicating ionization-related solubility similar to conventional polyacrylates. The ability of calcium (Ca2+) chelation was found to increase in the order of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)>CEE-polyrotaxanez.Gt;CEE-alpha-CD, suggesting that the increased density of carboxyl groups enhances the Ca2+ chelating ability. The activity of trypsin was inhibited by these compounds in the same order of the calcium chelation. However, the inhibitory effect of CEE-polyrotaxane was reduced by adding excess Ca2+ without precipitation that was observed in the presence of PAA. Such the reduced inhibition and precipitation by CEE-alpha-CD was not observed. Therefore, the inhibitory effect of CEE-polyrotaxane is due to Ca2+ chelation from trypsin without non-specific interaction.
