Objectives: This study aims to determine the amount of excipient that is degraded by alpha-amylase and the influence of alpha-amylase to thedissolution profile of sustained-release tablets that use matrix CL-Co-A-XG.Methods: Excipient is cross-linked with two concentrations of sodium trimetaphospate, which are 6% (CL6-Co-A-XG) and 12% (CL12-Co-A-XG).Each excipient is made with the ratios 1:1, 1:2, and 2:1 amylose-xanthan gum. Enzymatic degradation tests are performed on excipient powders for60 minutes. Sustained-release tablet with CL-Co-A-XG excipient as a matrix is formulated through direct compression method. Then, drug dissolutiontests are performed in a phosphate buffer with a pH of 7.4 both using and without using alpha-amylase as a medium for 8 hrs.Results: The results of this study show that CL6-Co-A-XG and CL12-Co-A-XG degraded 20% at 10 and 30 minutes, respectively. In addition, the releaseprofile of F1-F6 tablets show the sustained-release profile that follows zero-order and Korsmeyer–Peppas kinetics and is unaffected by the presenceof alpha-amylase.Conclusions: From this study, it can be concluded that the CL-Ko-A-XG excipients are more resistant to enzymatic degradation than amylose. Therefore,this excipient shows potential as a single matrix sustained-release tablet.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) means high blood pressure in the lungs caused by obstruction in the small arteries of the lungs.The current study involves the fabrication of oral matrix sustained release tablet of bosentan monohydrate, a dual endothelin receptor antagonist, the optimisation of its in vitro release and characterisation. Methocel K4M PremiumDC2, a directly compressible HPMC grade, has been used as the sustained release polymer. Pregelatinised starch is used as a diluent and release modifier and sodium lauryl sulphate as a solubiliser. The influence of the above variables on drug release is measured using a 23 factorial design using design expert software. Surface response plots show significant interaction among the formulation variables, thus aiding in optimization of bilayer tablet.
