The purpose of the current investigation was to develop chondroitin sulfate/carbopol-co-poly(acrylic acid) (CS/CBP-co-PAA) hydrogels for controlled delivery of diclofenac sodium (DS). Different concentrations of polymers chondroitin sulfate (CS), carbopol 934 (CBP), and monomer acrylic acid (AA) were cross-linked by ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate (EGDMA) in the presence of ammonium peroxodisulfate (APS) (initiator). The fabricated hydrogels were characterized for further experiments. Characterizations such as Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Powder X-ray diffractometry (PXRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were conducted to understand the surface morphology, thermodynamic stability, crystallinity of the drug, ingredients, and developed hydrogels. The swelling and drug release studies were conducted at two different pH mediums (pH 1.2 and 7.4), and pH-dependent swelling and drug release was shown due to the presence of functional groups of both polymers and monomers; hence, greater swelling and drug release was observed at the higher pH (pH 7.4). The percent drug release of the developed system and commercially available product cataflam was compared and high controlled release of the drug from the developed system was observed at both low and high pH. The mechanism of drug release from the hydrogels followed Korsmeyer–Peppas model. Conclusively, the current research work demonstrated that the prepared hydrogel could be considered as a suitable candidate for controlled delivery of diclofenac sodium.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to design an efficient delivery system with an anticipated swelling and drug release properties for a prolonged drug release as well as to target colon for various hydrophilic drugs. Methods: For this purpose, the pH-responsive hydrogel comprising a combination of Eudragit and acrylic acid was formed. The hydrogels were characterized for spectral (FTIR), thermal (TGA/DSC), structural (XRD), and morphological (SEM) investigations. Oral tolerability was assessed in rabbits for biocompatibility and oral use of the prepared hydrogels. Results: The results showed that an increased incorporation of Eudragit and cross-linking agent retorted the swelling, drug loading, and drug release properties at both acid (pH 1.2) and basic pH (pH 6.8 and 7.4) , while acrylic acid presented the inverse results. The oral tolerability and toxicity studies depicted that the developed hydrogels were safe up to 3800 mg/kg body weight and caused no hematological or histopathological changes when compared with the control group. Conclusion: Therefore, the newly developed formulations presented adequate swelling, drug loading, release behavior, and biocompatibility properties and thus can be used as a promising tool for the colonic delivery of various hydrophilic drugs.

In this study, we fabricated pH-sensitive polyvinylpyrrolidone/acrylic acid (PVP/AA) hydrogels by a free-radical polymerisation method with variation in the content of monomer, polymer and cross-linking agent. Swelling was performed in USP phosphate buffer solutions of pH 1.2, 5.5, 6.5 and 7.5 with constant ionic strength. Network structure was evaluated by different parameters and FTIR confirmed the formation of cross-linked hydrogels. X-ray crystallography showed molecular dispersion of tramadol HCl. A drug release study was carried out in phosphate buffer solutions of pH 1.2, 5.5 and 7.5 for selected samples. It was observed that swelling and drug release from hydrogels can be modified by changing composition and degree of cross-linking of the hydrogels under investigation. Swelling coefficient was high at higher pH values except for the one containing high PVP content. Drug release increased by increasing the pH of the medium and AA contents in hydrogels while increasing the concentration of cross-linking agent had the opposite effect. Analysis of the drug release mechanism revealed non-Fickian transport of tramadol from the hydrogels.
