  1. 1. Poly(Lactide-co-Glycolide) in Controlled-Release Pharmaceuticals - Release Mechanisms

    Author : Susanne Fredenberg; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PLGA; Poly lactide-co-glycolide ; Release mechanism; Diffusion; Controlled Release; Degradation; Protein;

    Abstract : Controlled-release formulations reduce the frequency of injections and better maintain plasma concentrations within the therapeutic window. Poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) is currently the most frequently used biodegradable polymer for this application. READ MORE

  2. 2. Characterization of the Mechanisms of Drug Release from Polymer-Coated Formulations using Experiments and Modelling

    Author : Mariagrazia Marucci; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ethyl cellulose; Release mechanism; coating; polymer blend; modelling; ESPI; diffusion; osmotic pumping; SEM; single pellet; CLSM; hydroxypropyl cellulose; multiple-unit release;

    Abstract : The main objectives of the work presented in this thesis were to develop new experimental methods to improve the understanding of the release mechanism from a coated formulation and to develop new mechanistic models to describe the release process for pellets coated with a semi-permeable film. Another aim was to characterize the release mechanism from a formulation coated with films made of a blend of a water-insoluble polymer, ethyl cellulose (EC), and a water-soluble polymer, hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC).

  3. 3. Modelling of Drug Release from Reservoir and Matrix Formulations - Multiple Unit Dosage Forms and Swelling and Dissolving Matrix Systems

    Author : Per Borgquist; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; swelling; XEDS; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik; Pharmaceutical and related technologies; Läkemedelsteknik och relaterad teknik; simulation; single pellet; single-unit release; SEM; reservoir system; poly ethylene oxide ; film-coated; matrix; mathematical model; diffusion; pellet shape; controlled release; polymer dissolution; modelling; ethyl cellulose; Coating; multiple-unit release;

    Abstract : In this work, mathematical models have been developed describing drug release from film-coated reservoir systems as well as drug release and polymer dissolution from swelling and dissolving polymer tablets. The model derivation of both systems is based on a mechanistic approach. The model describing drug release from reservoir systems, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 4. Viperin vs. tick-borne encephalitis virus : mechanism of a potent antiviral protein

    Author : Kirstin Vonderstein; Anna Överby Wernstedt; Magnus Evander; Sonja Best; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tick-borne encephalitis virus; TBEV; type-I interferon; IFN; Interferon-stimulated gene; ISG; viperin; GBF1; CIAO1; antiviral protein; genome replication; particle release; capsid;

    Abstract : Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a very important virus medically, causing mild or severe encephalitis often with long-lasting sequelae. Treatment of tick-borne encephalitis is limited to supportive care, and antiviral drugs are much needed.The type-I interferon (IFN) system is the first line of host defense against many viruses.

  5. 5. Formation and Decomposition of Platinum–Thallium Bond, Kinetics and Mechanism. Structural Characterization of Some Metal Cyanides in the Solid State

    Author : Péter Nagy; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metal–metal bond; platinum; thallium; kinetics; mechanism; stopped flow; oxidative addition; cyano complexes; edta; redox reaction; metal cyanides; X–ray diffraction; Raman; NMR; mercury; palladium; nickel; one dimensional wire;

    Abstract : The kinetic and mechanistic features of a new series ofplatinum-thallium cyano compounds containing a direct andunsupported by ligands metal-metal bond have been studied insolution, using standard mix–and–measurespectrophotometric technique and stopped–flow method.These reactions are interpreted as oxidative addition of the cspecies to the square planar Pt(CN)42-complex.
