Phases in drug development RM-KAHS
Preformulation RM-KAHS
Physicochemical properties RM-KAHS
Physicochemical properties RM-KAHS
Spectroscopy RM-KAHS
pKa • Determination of the dissociation constant for a drug - capable of ionization within a pH range of 1 to 10 • This is important since solubility, and consequently absorption, can be altered by changing pH (buffer). RM-KAHS
Rate of dissolution • Determination of the rate is important when it is the rate limiting step in the drug absorption process. • If solubility of drug > 10 mg/ml, at pH7, there will be no problem of bioavailability or dissolution (Kaplan,1972) RM-KAHS
Partition coefficient RM-KAHS
Melting Point • Affected by purity • Affected by types of polymorphs RM-KAHS
Particle properties RM-KAHS
Polyamide: Carrier for insoluble ingredients; Protector for sensitive ingredients; Slow delivery & long lasting effect 7 m, empty spheres 10 m, porous PHM4153 Dosage Design 2 2011/12
Excipient: Particle size distribution PHM4153 Dosage Design 2 2011/12
Excipient: Pore volume & pore diameter PHM4153 Dosage Design 2 2011/12
Excipients & Product Stability • Excipients are important for processing and efficacy • For tablets: binders, disintegrants, lubricants, and fillers. • For liquids: preservatives, thickener, colorants, flavours, sweeteners, buffer and water • Techniques to screen drug-excipient compatibility: • Thin-layer chromatography • Differential thermal analysis • Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy RM-KAHS
