Release Studies of Ketoprofen Niosome Formulation


ABSTRACT:

Anti-inflammatory drug ketoprofen was encapsulated in niosome for topical application. Ketoprofen niosome were prepared by thin film hydration method technique using surfactant, cholesterol, dicetyl phosphate & drug mixture in different weight ratios. The prepared niosomes were characterized by various physicochemical parameters & evaluation of release studies of entrapped ketoprofen in niosomes were carried out by UV Visible spectrophotometric method.

Introduction:

 Niosomes are surfactant vesicles which are used to entrap several pharmaceutical drugs to enhance their sustainability . The present research is attempt towards development of topical application of ketoprofen niosomes. so that drug will reach to target site with enhance sustainability & stability. The novelty of research work is to provide effective and maximize drug concentrations and therapeutic value.

Materials and Methods:

Sorbitan Esters-20, 40, 60 & 80 & Cholesterol were purchased from Thomas Baker Co Limited. Dicetyl phosphate was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich USA. Ketoprofen Sample was gifted from Menarni Raunaq Pharmaceuticals Limited. All other Chemicals and solvents were of analytical or pharmacopoieal grade.

Result and Discussion

Span 20 & 80 does not form a thin & dry film at rbf . These Spans are not used further in the research or experimental investigations. Only Span 40 & 60 were used to carry out further investigations.

A Validated specific Stability-indicating RP-HPLC method for Aripiprazole and its related substances

Image
ABSTRACT : A validated specific stability indicating reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method was developed for the quantitative determination of Aripiprazole and its related substances in bulk samples, pharmaceutical dosage forms in presence of degradation products. Forced degradation studies were performed on bulk sample of Aripiprazole as per ICH prescribed stress conditions using acid, base, oxidative, thermal stress and photolytic degradation to show the stability indicating power of the method. Significant degradation was observed during basic stress and no degradation was observed in other stress conditions. The chromatographic method was optimized using the samples generated from forced degradation studies and the impurity spiked with Aripiprazole. Good resolution between the peaks corresponds to impuritiy-1, degradation products from the analyte were achieved on YMC PACK C18 column using the mobile phase consists a mixture of Sodium dihydrogen Orthophosphate dehydra...
