Dissolution Mechanism of Diclofenac Sodium from Wax Matrix Granules
TL;DR: The results suggest that proper selection of rate-controlling agents based on their physicochemical properties (such as swelling ability and solubility) is important in designing WMGs with desired dissolution profiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
A New Attempt To Solve the Scale-Up Problem for Granulation Using Response Surface Methodology
Shigeo Ogawa,Toshihiko Kamijima,Yousuke Miyamoto,Masaharu Miyajima,Hiroshi Sato,Kozo Takayama,Tsuneji Nagai +6 more
TL;DR: A computerized optimizing technique based on a response surface methodology was developed to study the scale-up problem in the manufacturing of granules, and it was found that a universal optimal formulation unaffected by manufacturing scale could be obtained by minimizing the integrated optimization function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous Optimization of Wet Granulation Process Involving Factor of Drug Content Dependency on Granule Size
Yousuke Miyamoto,Akio Ryu,Shinya Sugawara,Masaharu Miyajima,Shigeo Ogawa,Masayuki Matsui,Kozo Takayama,Tsuneji Nagai +7 more
TL;DR: Computer optimization technique applied to the simultaneous optimization of wet granulation process by a high-speed mixer granulator suggested that computer optimization would benefit the wet granulations process even if drug content segregation was involved in the process.
Journal ArticleDOI
An application of the computer optimization technique to wet granulation process involving explosive growth of particles
Yousuke Miyamoto,Shigeo Ogawa,Masaharu Miyajima,Masayuki Matsui,Hiroshi Sato,Kozo Takayama,Tsuneji Nagai +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a computer optimization technique based on well-designed experiments is applied to optimize the wet granulation process in which an explosive growth of particles is involved, and a universal optimal condition unaffected by manufacturing scale is obtained by the minimization of T(X).
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of drug concentration-time profiles in vivo by zero-order transdermal delivery systems
Teruo Okano,Masaharu Miyajima,F. Komada,George Imanidis,S. Nishiyama,Sung Wan Kim,William I. Higuchi +6 more
TL;DR: Control of 9-β-arabinofuranosyladenine and ara-A-2',3'-diacetate concentrations in blood from zero-order transdermal delivery systems was achieved using newly designed transder mal patches with rate-limiting membranes using copolymer compositions chosen according to the hydration properties of the membrane.
