Famotidine as H2 receptor has antagonistic effects on gastric secretion. Unfortunately, its hydrophobic nature contributes to its variable and poor oral bioavailability. In the current study efforts are being made to fabricate famotidine loaded solid lipid nanoparticles with narrow size distribution. Prepared nanoformulations were pharmaceutically evaluated to confirm the desired boosted oral bioavailability. Famotidine loaded nanoformulation (FFSe-4) showed particle size 111.9±1.3 nm, polydispersity index 0.464±0.03, zeta potential −33.46±2 mV, entrapment efficiency 84±2.7%, and drug loading capacity 2.709±0.13%. Drug-excipients compatibility was confirmed by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed spherical shaped, nanosized particles. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffractometry confirmed the change in crystalline nature. Prepared nanoformulation was more stable at refrigerated temperature. In vitro study showed that drug release time is proportional to drug pay load and followed zero order kinetics. Release exponent (n>0.5) confirmed non-Fickian-diffusion mechanism for drug release. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies showed 2.06-fold increase in oral bioavailability of famotidine dispersed in solid lipid nanoparticles compared to commercial product. These results authenticate solid lipid nanoparticles as drug delivery system and propose prolonged release with improved oral bioavailability for famotidine.

The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate lacidipine (LD) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (LD-SLNs) for improving the oral bioavailability. LD-SLNs were prepared in two steps. First step was hot homogenization and next by ultrasonication method, using triglycerides (tripalmitin and tristearin), monoglyceride and surfactants (Poloxamer 188 and egg lecithin E80). The prepared LD-SLNs were characterized for particle size, PDI, zeta potential, drug content, entrapment efficiency (EE %).         In vitro drug release studies using a dialysis bag method in 0.1N HCl and pH 6.8 phosphate buffer were conducted. In addition, long-term physical stability of the optimized SLNs was investigated at refrigerated and room temperature for 60 days. FTIR and DSC studies revealed that no interaction between the drug and lipids. LD-SLNs prepared with Dynasan-116 (F3), having the size of 141.86nm, PDI of 0.293, ZP of -22.3 m with 94.75% of EE was optimized and was stable for 60days. Scanning electron microscopic studies showed nearly spherical shaped particles. Further, pharmacokinetic studies were conducted in wistar rats. The relative bioavailability of LD in SLNs was 2.03 times when compared with that of the LD suspension. The results are indicative of SLNs as suitable lipid based carrier system for improving the oral bioavailability of LD.

Background: Dronedarone HCl (DRD), owing to its poor aqueous solubility and extensive presystemic metabolism shows low oral bioavailability of about 4% without food, which increases to approximately 15% when administered with a high fat meal. Objective: Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) were designed with glyceryl monstearate (GMS) in order to improve oral bioavailability of DRD. Methods: Hot homogenization followed by probe sonication was used to prepare SLN dispersions. Box-Behnken design was used to optimize manufacturing conditions. SLN were characterized for particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, physical state and in vitro drug release. Pharmacokinetics and intestinal uptake study of dronedarone HCl loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (DRD-SLN) in the presence and absence of endocytic uptake inhibitor, chlorpromazine (CPZ) was performed with conscious male Wistar rats. Results: Optimized formulation of SLN showed particle size of 233 ± 42 nm and entrapment efficiency of 87.4 ± 1.29%. Results of pharmacokinetic studies revealed enhancement of bioavailability of DRD by 2.68 folds from SLN as compared to DRD suspension. Significantly reduced bioavailability of DRD-SLNs in the presence of chlorpromazine, demonstrated the role of endocytosis in uptake of SLN formulation. Conclusion: These results indicated that dronedarone HCl loaded SLN could potentially be exploited as a delivery system for improving oral bioavailability by minimizing first pass metabolism.

The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate irbesartan (IS) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs; IS-SLNs) that might enhance the oral bioavailability of IS. IS, an angiotensin-receptor antagonist, used to treat hypertension. However, poor aqueous solubility and poor oral bioavailability has limited therapeutic applications of IS. Components of the SLNs include either of trimyristin/tripalmitin/tristearin/trilaurate/stearic acid/beeswax, and surfactants (Poloxamer 188 and soylecithin). The IS-SLNs were prepared by hot homogenization followed by ultrasonication method and evaluated for particle size, poly dispersity index (PDI), zeta potential (ZP), entrapment efficiency (EE), drug content and in vitro drug release. The physical stability of optimized formulation was studied at refrigerated and room temperature for two months. The optimized IS-SLN formulation (F4) had a mean diameter of about 217.6±3.62 nm, PDI of 0.163±0.032, ZP of -28.5±4.12, assay of 99.8±0.51 and EE of 93.68±2.47%. The formulation showed sustained drug release compared with control formulation over 24 h. Optimized formulation was found to be stable over two months. IS-SLN showed nearly spherical in shape using and converted to amorphous form by DSC. Thus, the results conclusively demonstrated SLNs could be considered as an alternative delivery system for the oral bioavailability enhancement of IS.

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) are novel drug carrier system which consists of a solid matrix composed of a lipid being solid at both room and body temperatures with a mean Particle Size (PS) between 50 and 1000 nm Mupirocin -Tinidazole solid-lipid nanoparticles were prepared using hot homogenization technique using Glyceryl monosterate, Stearic acid, Tween 80 and Poloxamer 188 using hot homogenization technique. Size of the nanoparticles was in the range of 83 to 211 nm with the zeta potential values between -2.1 to -5.2. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) confirms the spherical shape of solid lipid nanoparticles. Entrapment efficiency was best in the F1 formulation. In vitro release of the pure drug was found to be 75% of mupirocin and 66.5% of tinidazole at the end of 1 hr. Drug release from SLNs dispersion followed Korsermeyrs peppas-model, indicating fickian diffusion drug release, while that from the gel followed non Fickian model drug release. Antibacterial activity of the SLNs was less but the SLNs based gel shows no significant difference in activity to that of standard drug gentamycin against aerobic bacteria. The SLNs dispersion exhibited physicochemical stability under refrigeration upto 45 days without significant difference in particle size. Best formulation was developed into a topical gel using sodium alginate and it was evaluated for pH, viscosity, spreadbility, extrudability, bloom strength, Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Extrudability and spreadability parameters of the gel are similar to that of marketed Mupirocin 2% cream formulation

Lipid Nanocarriers

AbstractLupinifolin, a plant flavonoid, has been reported to possess various pharmacological effects. It most likely exerts low oral bioavailability because of poor water solubility. The objective of this study was to develop lipid nanocarriers as drug delivery systems to increase the gastrointestinal absorption of lupinifolin extracted from Albizia myriophylla. Three types of nanocarriers, lupinifolin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles, lupinifolin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, and lupinifolin-loaded nanoemulsions, were prepared by an emulsification-sonication technique. All three types of nanocarriers loaded with lupinifolin, lupinifolin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles, lupinifolin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, and lupinifolin-loaded nanoemulsions, were successfully synthesized. The lipid components chosen to formulate nanocarriers were tripalmitin and/or medium chain triglyceride. Physicochemical characterizations along with releasing profiles of lupinifolin-loaded lipid nanocarriers were compared. It was found that the best lipid nanocarrier for lupinifolin was lupinifolin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, which demonstrated the particle size of 151.5 ± 0.1 nm, monodispersity distribution with a polydispersity index of 0.24, negative surface charge at − 41.2 ± 0.7 mV, high encapsulation (99.3%), and high loading capacity (5.0%). The obtained lupinifolin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers exhibited prolonged release in a simulated circulatory system but produced a low release in gastrointestinal conditions (3.7%). Intestinal permeability of the nanocarriers was further evaluated in everted intestinal sacs. The results from the ex vivo study indicated that lupinifolin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers significantly increased the absorption of lupinifolin compared to the native form. In conclusion, lupinifolin-loaded lipid nanocarriers were successfully formulated as delivery systems to enhance its oral bioavailability. Further in vivo experiments are needed to validate the results from this study.
