Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation and evaluation of drug-loaded gelatin nanoparticles for topical ophthalmic use

TL;DR: Gelatin nanoparticles encapsulating pilocarpine HCl or hydrocortisone as model drugs were produced using a desolvation method, and the influence of a number of preparation parameters on the particle properties was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biocompatible stabilizers in the preparation of PLGA nanoparticles: a factorial design study.

TL;DR: Nanoparticles were obtained with most polymers when they were used in combination with PVA, and the most extreme zeta potential values were measured when poloxamer and carbopol were employed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of ciprofloxacin-loaded Eudragit® RS100 or RL100/PLGA nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, two non-biodegradable positively charged polymers, Eudragit RS100 and RL100, and the biodegradability polymer poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) or PLGA were used alone or in combination, with varying ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI

Factorial design, physicochemical characterisation and activity of ciprofloxacin-PLGA nanoparticles.

TL;DR: Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles incorporating ciprofloxacin HCl were prepared by means of a W/O/W emulsification solvent evaporation method and the stabiliser selected was poly(vinylalcohol).
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and characterization of Cyclosporine A loaded nanoparticles for ocular drug delivery: Cellular toxicity, uptake, and kinetic studies

TL;DR: The change of surface characteristics of NPs represents a useful approach for improvement of ocular retention and drug availability and Kinetically, the release profiles of CsA from NPs appeared to fit best with the Weibull model.
