Preparation and characterization of a novel pH-sensitive chitosan-g-poly (acrylic acid)/attapulgite/sodium alginate composite hydrogel bead for controlled release of diclofenac sodium

TL;DR: A series of pH-sensitive composite hydrogel beads composed of chitosan-g -poly (acrylic acid)/attapulgite/sodium alginate (CTS- g -PAA/APT/SA) was prepared as drug delivery matrices crosslinked by Ca 2+ owing to the ionic gelation of SA as discussed by the authors.

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

Release characteristics of diclofenac sodium from poly(vinyl alcohol)/sodium alginate and poly(vinyl alcohol)-grafted-poly(acrylamide)/sodium alginate blend beads.

TL;DR: It was observed that, DS release from the beads decreased with increasing PVA/NaAlg (m/m) ratio, drug/polymer ratio (d/p) and extent of cross-linking, but release increased with increasing acrylamide content of the PVA-g-PAAm polymer.

The design and evaluation of controlled release systems for the gastrointestinal tract

TL;DR: The non-invasive technique of gamma scintigraphy has been used to follow in vivo release rates and to relate these to pharmacokinetic parameters and this result has implications for the design of controlled release delivery systems for drugs with poor absorption in the large intestine, as well as for the development of positioned release systems (colon targeting).
