  2. 1. Modification of microcapsules for controlled release

    Author : Markus Andersson Trojer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; block copolymer; coordination chemistry; polyelectrolyte multilayer; cross-linking; vibrational spectroscopy; electron paramagnetic resonance; imidazole; controlled release; colloidal stability; Microcapsule; quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation;

    Abstract : Fouling of marine organisms such as algae and barnacles on the boat hull is an enormous problem for the shipping industry. The negative consequences for the society are both economical and environmental. To prevent fouling in general, biocides are typically incorporated directly into the paint. READ MORE

  4. 2. Characterisation of an in vitro dissolution method for assessment of novel pulmonary drug delivery systems : With a focus on controlled release systems

    Author : Irès van der Zwaan; Göran Frenning; Per Hansson; Rebecca Fransson; Alessandra Rossi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pulmonary drug delivery; in vitro dissolution; mechanistic model; controlled release; physiologically based biopharmaceutics modelling;

    Abstract : Pulmonary drug delivery has been used for decades to treat local diseases like asthma. When using the pulmonary route to deliver drugs, several important lung features are being used, such as a large surface area available for absorption, high organ vascularization, and a thin blood-alveolar barrier.

  5. 3. 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

  6. 4. Structure control by phase separation and influence on mass transport in films for controlled release

    Author : Helene Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Controlled release; Coating; Cellulose derivatives; Hydroxypropyl cellulose; Solvent evaporation; Ethyl cellulose; Phase separation; Polymer blend; Molecular weight;

    Abstract : Controlled release coatings for oral pharmaceutics are often made of cellulose derivatives. Such coatings can be used to promote a prolonged therapeutic concentration in the blood by a slow drug delivery in the gastrointestinal tract. READ MORE

  7. 5. Controlled Release Gel Formulations for Mucosal Drug Delivery

    Author : Mattias Paulsson; David Attwood; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacy; FARMACI; PHARMACY; FARMACI; Galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics;

    Abstract : Drug delivery to nasal or ocular mucosa for either local or systemic action faces many obstacles – these routes are protected by effective mechanisms. Gel formulations with suitable rheological and mucoadhesive properties increase the contact time at the site of absorption. READ MORE
