The taste of drugs is an important factor affecting pharmacotherapy effectiveness, and obtaining formulations with acceptable organoleptic properties is still an ongoing issue in pharmaceutical technology. One of the innovative methods of taste masking is preparation of microparticles by the spray drying technique, utilizing polymers with different physicochemical properties. Rupatadine fumarate (RUP) is one of the newest antihistamines, with an innovative and multidirectional mechanism of action, and an extremely bitter taste. The aim of this work was to investigate the feasibility of utilizing organic or aqueous forms of ethylcellulose (EC) for the preparation of microparticles with RUP by the spray drying technique. Spray dried samples at different drug:polymer ratios were prepared using organic solution (Ethocel®) or aqueous dispersions of EC (Surelease®, Aquacoat® ECD). Evaluation of the taste masking efficacy was performed in vivo in human taste panel, in vitro based on dissolution test, and by self-constructed electronic tongue. It was shown that microparticles obtained from aqueous dispersions of EC have superior pharmaceutical properties in terms of both morphology and taste masking efficacy in comparison to those obtained from organic solution.

The delivery of therapeutic proteins remains a challenge, despite recent technological advances. While the delivery of proteins to the lungs is the gold standard for topical and systemic therapy through the lungs, the issue still exists. While pulmonary delivery is highly attractive due to its non-invasive nature, large surface area, possibility of topical and systemic administration, and rapid absorption circumventing the first-pass effect, the absorption of therapeutic proteins is still ineffective, largely due to the immunological and physicochemical barriers of the lungs. Most studies using spray-drying for the nanoencapsulation of drugs focus on the delivery of conventional drugs, which are less susceptible to bioactivity loss, compared to proteins. Herein, the development of polymeric nanoparticles by spray-drying for the delivery of therapeutic proteins is reviewed with an emphasis on its advantages and challenges, and the techniques to evaluate their in vitro and in vivo performance. The protein stability within the carrier and the features of the carrier are properly addressed.

The purpose of this study is to i) fabricate a biodegradable nanoparticle formulation of Ketoprofen, ii) evaluate its characteristics, iii) investigate its in vitro dissolution and in vivo pharmaceutical property. The nanoparticle formulation was prepared by spray drying method using Eudragit L100 as the matrix polymer. Size and morphology of drug-loaded nanoparticles were characterized with the electron microscopes (TEM, SEM). These successfully prepared nanoparticles by spray drying method are spherical in shape and quite homologous with diameter size of 100 – 200 nm. The in vitro dissolution studies were conducted at pH 1.2 and 7.4. The results indicated that there is a significant increase in Keto concentration at pH 7.4 compared to pH 1.2. For the in vivo assessment, our Keto-loaded nanoparticles and referential Profenid were administered by oral gavages to rabbits. The results implied that Keto-loadednanoparticles remarkably increased AUC compared to Profenid.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the survival rate and effective antagonistic activity against Botrytis cinerea, responsible for grey mould on harvested fruits and vegetables, of yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, isolated and identified from the natural microbiota of murta (Chilean guava) berries, after spray drying at different inlet air temperatures, mass per volume ratio of encapsulating agent (maltodextrin) and feed flow rates. The 100 % survival of the yeast was obtained after spray drying with 18 % maltodextrin at 130 °C inlet temperature and a feed flow rate of 9.25 mL/min. The dried yeast obtained under such conditions had the highest antagonistic activity in vitro and in vivo on apples, which showed that spray drying is a valid method to produce active dried cells of R. mucilaginosa that can be used for biocontrol of grey mould spoilage. It was also found that the encapsulating agent maltodextrin improved the in vitro antagonistic activity of R. mucilaginosa.

Gliclazide (GZ) is practically insoluble in water and its bioavailability is limited by dissolution rate. The aim of the present study was to enhance the dissolution rate and bioavailability of GZ by complexation with hydroxypropyl (HP)-β-cyclodextrin (CD) applying three different methods; physical mixing, kneading technique and spray drying technique.  Also, to evaluate the dissolution rate and the hypoglycemic effect of the prepared complexes, in comparison with the GZ market product (Glizide tablets) in Saudi market. The produced complexes were characterized and evaluated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), X-ray Diffractometry (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the in vitro release studies. All the methods of preparation of complexes were found to be effective in improving the solubility of gliclazide in comparison with the commercial product (Glizide tablets). The formation of inclusion complexes was evident in these formulations as shown by DSC and XRD studies. The inclusion complexes prepared by spray drying method in 1:1 molar ratios were the most effective method for improving the solubility of GZ. The in-vivo hypoglycemic effect of the complexed GZ-HP-β-CD prepared by spray drying significantly improved the biological performance and therapeutic efficacy of the drug compared to Glizide market product.

The present study has been performed to microencapsulate the antidiabetic drug of Vildagliptin to get sustained release of drug. The attempt of this study was to formulate and evaluate the Vildagliptin loaded microspheres by emulsion solvent evaporation technique using different polymers like Eudragit RL100, Eudragit RS100, Ethyl cellulose, and Methocel K100M. In vitro dissolution studies were carried out in 0.1 N HCl for 8 hours according to USP paddle method. The maximum and minimum drug release were observed as 92.5% and 68.5% from microspheres, respectively, after 8 hours. Release kinetics were studied in different mathematical release models to find out the linear relationship and release rate of drug. The SEM, DSC, and FTIR studies have been done to confirm good spheres and smooth surface as well as interaction along with drug and polymer. In this experiment, it is difficult to explain the exact mechanism of drug release. But the drug might be released by both diffusion and erosion as the correlation coefficient (R2) best fitted with Korsmeyer model and release exponent (n) was 0.45–0.89. At last it can be concluded that all in vitro and in vivo experiments exhibited promising result to treat type II diabetes mellitus with Vildagliptin microspheres.
