The objective of the present study was to achieve the successful encapsulation of a therapeutic agent to achieve antifouling functionality regarding biomedical applications. Considering nanotechnology, drug-loaded polycaprolactone (PCL)-based nanoparticles were prepared using a nano-precipitation technique by optimizing various process parameters. The resultant nano-formulations were investigated for in vitro drug release and antifouling applications. The prepared particles were characterized in terms of surface morphology and surface properties. Optimized blank and drug-loaded nanoparticles had an average size of 200 nm and 216 nm, respectively, with associated charges of −16.8 mV and −11.2 mV. Studies of the in vitro release of drug were carried out, which showed sustained release at two different pH, 5.5 and 7.4 Antifouling activity was observed against two bacterial strains, Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli. The zone of inhibition of the optimized polymeric drug-loaded nanoparticle F-25 against both strains were compared with the pure drug. The gradual pH-responsive release of antibiotics from the biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles could significantly increase the efficiency and pharmacokinetics of the drug as compared to the pure drug. The acquired data significantly noted that the resultant nano-encapsulation of antifouling functionality could be a promising candidate for topical drug delivery systems and skin applications.

Background: The rate-limiting step in the oral absorption of BCS class II drugs is dissolution. Their low solubility is one of the major obstacles in the process of drug development. Dissolution rate can be increased by decreasing the particle size to the nano range, eventually leading to increased bioavailability. Objective: : In the present study, glimepiride loaded nanoparticles were prepared to enhance the dissolution rate. The aim of the work was to examine the effect of polymer-drug ratio, solvent-antisolvent ratio and speed of mixing on in vitro release of glimepiride. Methods: Glimepiride is an antidiabetic drug belonging to the BCS class II drugs. The polymeric nanoparticles were formulated according to Box-Behnken Design (BBD) using nanoprecipitation technique. The prepared nanoparticles were evaluated for in vitro drug release, loading capacity, entrapment efficiency, and percentage yield. Result: It was found that NP-8 has maximum in vitro drug release and was selected as an optimized batch. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was applied to the in vitro drug release to study the fitness and significance of the model. The batch NP-8 showed 70.34 ± 1.09% in vitro drug release in 0.1 N methanolic HCl and 92.02 ± 1.87% drug release in phosphate buffer pH 7.8. The release data revealed that the nanoparticles followed zero order kinetics. Conclusion: The study revealed that the incorporation of glimepiride into gelucire 50/13 resulted in enhanced dissolution rate.

Span 60

Metformin/Gliclazide niosomes were formulated with span 60 by ether injection method. Three batches MG1-MG3 were prepared in order to study influence of drug polymer ratio on the niosomes formation and in vitro drug release. The formulated niosomes were characterized by drug entrapment, vesicle size determination, and in vitro drug release. Optimized concentration of span 60 and cholesterol was found to be 1:1. In the in-vitro study, niosomes formulation of MG1 showed high percentage of drug release, 40.18 to 45.75% for about 8 hrs. This indicated that this batch of niosomes formulation exhibit sustained drug release pattern as the niosomes act as reservoir system for continuous delivery of drug. The quantity of Metformin/Gliclazide present in the niosomes and the release medium were estimated by a validated HPLC method. The formulated niosomes had acceptable physicochemical characters and released the drug over 6-8 h. The data obtained from in vitro release studies were fitted with various kinetic models and was found to follow Higuchi kinetics.
