  5. NRA (Nuclear Reaction Analysis) • Protons detected from the reaction: • 3He + d  p +  Q = 18.4 MeV • Rutherford BackScattering (RBS) • PIXE (Particle Induced X-ray Emission)

  6. Water and drug profiles following water ingress into in-mouth planar polymers • Water uptake and drug release have been characterised for: • chlorhexidine diacetate drug loadings of 0%,4.5%,9% and 15% of dry weight polymer • 3 polymers – Addition Cured silicone, Condensation Cured silicone and PEM/THFM • 2 immersion solutions – 90% pure H2O/10%D2O and 90% PBS/10%D2O • a series of 7 immersion times from 1 hour to 6 months • using three techniques: • scanning 3He ion microbeam NRA ,PIXE and backscattering to profile the water ingress, correlate water and drug distributions and enable inter-sample normalisation • gravimetric measurements to establish absolute normalisation of water uptake • UV measurements to establish mass of drug released to immersion solution.

  7. Sample Preparation • Mix drug and silicone polymer, press into oblongs 20 mm  10 mm  ~1 mm. • Immerse in 50 ml water (10% D2O/ 90%H2O) or buffer solution (10% D2O/ 90% Buffer solution) at 37C • Remove, hold between copper blocks on sample plate, cut section at the block height; plunge in LN2 • Mount sample plate on LN2 cooled sample stage and do 3He beam scan

  15. Cylindrical Polymer/Drug Depots • Solid cylindrical depots (2.25 mm in diameter) of poly(dl-lactide) P(DL)LA loaded with goserelin in ratios of 20%, 30% and 40% by weight respectively were prepared by melt extrusion of drug/polymer mixtures. • Many sections 18 mm long were cut, weighed and immersed in separate glass jars containing 45ml buffer solution mixed with 5ml D2O. These were held at a constant temperature of 37C for times between 1 hr and 7 days. • On removal they were dried lightly with filter paper, weighed and cut into sections 3mm long. These were transferred to the sample plate, held at liquid nitrogen temperature and subsequently scanned with the 3He ion microbeam – energy 1.3 MeV, diameter 10 microns, current ~ 1nA.
