Drug release from carbomer:carbomer sodium salt matrices with potential use as mucoadhesive drug delivery system.

In vitro mucoadhesion, water uptake, and drug release of nystatin (N) from matrices of carbomer (C) and lyophilized carbomer sodium salt (CNaL) mixtures were evaluated. Matrices with different ratios C:CNaL were prepared by direct compression. Commercial C as well as lyophilized powder (CL) were used. In vitro mucoadhesion increased as the proportion of C in the matrix was raised. The same effect was observed when C was replaced by CL. Matrices in which C was replaced by CL showed an increase of both water uptake and release rates. Besides, the release of N from matrices CL:CNaL exhibited a kinetics with Super Case II (n>1) mechanism. However, for C:CNaL matrices, drug release was slower and exhibited a biphasic profile with a first stage characterized by either an anomalous (n<1, for C>or=50%) or a Case II (n approximately 1.0, C<50%) mechanisms. After that period, the mechanism changed to Super Case II transport (n>1).

In situ evaluation of drug-loaded microspheres on a mucosal surface under dynamic test conditions.

The ability of polymeric microspheres fabricated from Carbopol, polycarbophil, chitosan or Gantrez to retain a model hydrophilic drug (sodium fluorescein) was evaluated in situ, using a dynamic test system and image analysis. This technique used oesophageal tissues and simulated the physiological conditions within the oral cavity in terms of temperature, humidity and saliva flow. The point of sample application was observed over a 2h period by means of a digital camera. No significant differences in fluorescein colour intensity was obtained for the Gantrez and chitosan particles over 100min, indicate that these two polymers provide the possibility of prolonged action. Carbopol and polycarbophil particles became rapidly swollen and released the sodium fluorescein completely within 20min. It was concluded that the test system allowed the evaluation of the in situ behaviour of test particles, in terms of their ability to retain a water-soluble, coloured marker in 'dynamic' test conditions, and that chitosan and Gantrez were promising candidates for the production of mucoadhesive, sustained-release microspheres for water-soluble materials.

The influence of resin chemistry on a dental composite's biodegradation.

Previous work reported that commercial dental composite resins containing a urethane-modified bisGMA (bisphenylglycidyl dimethacrylate)/TEGDMA (triethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (ubis) based monomer system showed a 10-fold reduction in the release of a bisGMA-derived product, bishydroxypropoxyphenyl propane (bisHPPP), as compared with that found for bisGMA/TEGDMA (bis) based composites after incubation with cholesterol esterase (CE). Unfortunately, these materials also differed substantially in filler type and content, making it impossible to directly relate any specific parameter to the differences in biodegradation levels. By controlling for filler content and type, the current study will seek to probe the biomolecular interactions between composite resin chemistry and esterase activity in order to help explain the observed differences in biodegradation levels between the ubis and bis resin systems. After 32 days of incubation, buffer and CE solutions were analyzed for degradation products using high-performance liquid chromatography, UV spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Both materials were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In the CE groups, the ubis system showed a 2.6- to 86-fold reduction (dependent on the product) in the amount of isolated products relative to the bis system (p < 0.01). Scanning electron microscopy data also demonstrated the relative stability of the ubis system and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed a higher content of the ester bond at the surface of the bis samples. Fourier transform infrared data showed that both resins had similar conversions. Because both systems were identical except for their monomer systems, it was concluded that changes in biostability were associated with chemistry. Crosslinking, hydrophobicity, and solubility all relate to ubis's pro-stability.
