    Abstract Antihypertensive treatment reduces the risk of cardiovascular complications in patients with high mortality with hypertension. Valsartan is highly selective antihypertensive that is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, but its oral bioavailability is only 25%. It is absorbed from the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract but is less soluble in this acidic environment. We aimed to develop a lipid-based formulation to produce a self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) for valsartan. Solubility studies were performed to identify the components of the SEDDS that provided the best dissolution of valsartan. Ternary phase diagrams were drawn using the titration method with oil, surfactants and co-surfactants in which valsartan was highly soluble, and microemulsion formulations with the highest area were determined.

    Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), more than 800 000 cases reported annually, is the most common primary liver cancer globally. Doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox-HCl) is a widely used chemotherapy drug for HCC, but efficacy and tolerability are limited, thus critical to develop delivery systems that can target Dox-HCl to the tumour site. In this study, liver-targeting ligand glycyrrhetinic acid (Gly) was conjugated to polyethylene glycol (PEG)

    Abstract A microemulsion, made from water, oil, surfactants and cosurfactant is a thermodynamically stable system. The presence of the cosurfactant is often required in order to lower the interfacial tension of this interface, because a low interfacial tension is essential for the formation of microemulsions. The transparency of microemulsions arises from their small droplet diameter. The droplet diameter in stable microemulsions is usually within the range of 10 - 140 nm. Microemulsions are graphically represented as stability areas in triangular phase diagrams where each triangular corner designates a certain component. Microemulsions are actually quaternary (pseudoternary) systems. In pharmaceutical fields, the interest in microemulsions is increasing and, thus, they are applied to various administration routes.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to develop a new dosage form as an alternative to the classical tablet forms of atorvastatin calcium (AtrCa). The formulation strategy was to prepare an optimum self micro emulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) to overcome the problem of low solubility of the active substance.
    Methods: In this study, pseudo ternary phase diagrams were plotted determined by the solubility studies. According to the solubility studies; oleic acid was used as the oil phase, Tween 20 and Span 80 were used as the surfactants and ethanol was used as the co-surfactant. SMEDDS formulations were characterized according to pH, electrical conductivity, density, refractive index, viscosity, emulsification time, dispersibility, robustness of dilution stability, droplet size, polidispersity index, zeta potential, transmittance %, cloud point, content quantification %, chemical and physical stability. The lipolysis study was conducted under fed and fasted conditions. In vitro release studies and kinetic evaluation were carried out. Permeability studies were also examined with Caco-2 cell culture.
    Results: The droplet size of the optimized formulation did not change significantly in different medias over the test time period. Improved SMEDDS formulation will progress steadily without precipitating along the gastrointestinal tract. Lipolysis studies showed that the oil solution had been exposed to high amount of lipolysis compared to the SMEDDS formulation. The release rate of AtrCa from AtrCa- SMEDDS formulation (93.8%, at 15 minutes) was found as increased when the results were compared with commercial tablet formulation and pure drug. The permeability value of AtrCa from AtrCa- SMEDDS formulation was found higher than pure AtrCa and commercial tablet formulation, approximately 9.94 and 1.64 times, respectively.
    Conclusion: Thus, lipid-based SMEDDS formulation is a potential formulation candidate for lymphatic route in terms of the increased solubility of AtrCa.

    Abstract The purpose of the current research was to prepare and evaluate the potential use of microemulsion-based hydrogel (MBH) formulations for dermal delivery of benzocaine (BZN). The pseudoternary-phase diagrams were constructed for various microemulsions composed of isopropyl myristate (IPM) as oil phase, Span 20, Tween 20, Tween 80, cremophor EL and cremophor RH40 as surfactants, ethanol as cosurfactant and distilled water as aqueous phase. Finally, concentration of BZN in microemulsions was 2% (w/w). The physicochemical properties, such as conductivity, viscosity, pH, droplet size, polydispersity index and zeta potential of microemulsions, were measured. Carbopol 940 was used to convert BZN-loaded microemulsions into gel form without affecting their structure. Furthermore, excised rat abdominal skin was used to compare permeation and penetration properties of BZN loaded M3 and M3BHs with BZN solution. According to ex vivo study results, BZN-loaded M3BH1 showed highest flux values and high release rate values, and furthermore, this gel formulation had low surfactant content. Finally, in order to learn the localization of formulations within the dermal penetration, formulations and BZN solution were labeled with red oil O and subjected to fluorescence observation. In conclusion, BZN-loaded MBHs could be offered as a promising strategy for dermal drug delivery.

    Abstract This study was designed to investigate the possible histological effects of different intranasal (IN) formulations of indomethacin (IND) on nasal mucosa in sheep. For this purpose, oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion (E) and solution (S) formulations including 3 mg/mL of IND were prepared. Penetration enhancers such as polyvinylpyrolidone (PVP), citric acid (CA) and sodium taurocholate (NaT) were added to emulsion (1%) at the final step into the formulations. First, the effect of penetration enhancers on permeation of IND was evaluated by in vitro permeation studies in which sheep nasal mucosa was used. According to the permeation studies PVP showed the highest enhancing effect on the permeation rate of IND from sheep nasal mucosa. Furthermore, the IND permeation from E containing PVP (1.624 +/- 0.045 mg) was significantly higher than that obtained from E (0.234 +/- 0.012 mg) (p < 0.05). For the histological studies, white Karaman sheep of approximately 20 +/- 5 kg, aged 4 to 8 months were used. They were randomly divided into eight groups, each including three sheep. Five experimental groups received different formulations of IND emulsion without/ with penetration enhancers (E-PVP, E-CA, E-NaT, E) and IND solution (S), respectively. Parallel controls were composed of either untreated groups and were given blank emulsion or isotonic sodium chloride solution (0.31 mg/kg). 2 mL of each experimental formulation was applied to both nostrils of sheep, and 1/3 central and lower regions of the nose were dissected and prepared for light microscopy. Specimens stained with hematoxylin and eosin and Gomori's trichrome were examined by light microscopy. No signs of inflammation or erosion were noticed in the nasal mucosa of the control groups. Widened epithelial intercellular spaces were noticed in E-CA, E-NaT, and E-PVP groups as well with the E-PVP group showing the largest intraepithelial separations. E-CA and E-NaT groups showed significant decrease in the amount of goblet cells, while hypoplasia was considerably moderate in the E-PVP group. Finally, intranasal administration of IND emulsion with PVP may be considered as an alternative to intravenous and per oral administrations of IND to overcome their adverse effects.

    Abstract The objective of this study was to develop a mathematical equation for the calculation of drug release from different shaped matrix tablets. By this way, release rate related to the geometric shape could be predicted with the help of the developed mathematical equation. So, drug release could be estimated before the dissolution. Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) E50 as polymer and theophylline as active substance were used in the matrix tablets prepared for this purpose. Matrix tablets in three different geometrical shapes, namely in triangular, cylindrical and half-spherical forms were prepared by using two different drug-polymer ratio (1:0.5, 1:1) and diluent's in three different percentages (0, 20, 40%). Using rotating paddle and basket methods reported in USP XXIII carried out the release rate studies of these tablets. The Higuchi square-root time model best described the dissolution data. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis was performed to identify any solid-state inactivation of the drug. The practical benefit of this work is to improve mathematical equation that can be used to predict accurately the required composition and in order to achieve the desired release profiles of different geometric shaped tablets. By using this equation new pharmaceutical products can be easily improved.
