Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of PVP K-25 on the formation of the naproxen:β-ciclodextrin complex
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effects of the presence of the water-soluble polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone K-25 (MW=24,000g/mol) on the complexation of the AINE naproxen, in its sodium salt form, with the β-cyclodextrin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth, Shrinking, and Breaking of Pluronic Micelles in the Presence of Drugs and/or β-Cyclodextrin, a Study by Small-Angle Neutron Scattering and Fluorescence Spectroscopy
TL;DR: The associative structures between F127 Pluronic micelles and four drugs, namely, pentobarbital sodium salt (PB), sodium naproxen (NP), and sodium salicylate (SAL), were studied by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Competitive and Synergistic Interactions between Polymer Micelles, Drugs, and Cyclodextrins: The Importance of Drug Solubilization Locus
Margarita Valero,Franca Castiglione,Andrea Mele,Marcelo A. da Silva,Isabelle Grillo,Gustavo González-Gaitano,Cécile A. Dreiss +6 more
TL;DR: Critically, time-resolved SANS (TR-SANS) reveal that micellar breakup in the presence of drugs is substantially slower than for the free micelles, which gives new insights into the mechanisms of protection of the drugs against CD-induced micella breakup.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ternary naproxen:β-cyclodextrin:polyethylene glycol complex formation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the complexation of the phototoxic anti-inflammatory drug naproxen, in its sodium salt form, with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen bonding in a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug--Naproxen.
TL;DR: Photophysical properties of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, Naproxen, were investigated in solvents of different polarity, hydrogen donor ability and also in cyclodextrins and results indicate that in all cases the emitting state is the 1L(b) singlet.
