This thesis describes evaluation of a gastric retention device (GRD) developed at Oregon State University. The device was originally fabricated from Xanthan gum and Locust bean gum. A modified gastric retention device containing other additives was developed and investigated in this work. The modified device was evaluated in vitro for...
This thesis describes 1) development of a gastric retention device (GRD) to
increase gastric retention time of certain drugs, 2) product formulations of an immediate
release itraconazole and controlled-release ketoprofen. GRD was fabricated from crosslinked
carbohydrate polymers. Rate and extent of hydration of the film in water and in
simulated...
A high-pressure liquid chromatography method based on
reported literature was developed for the quantitative
analysis of chlorpheniramine, pseudoephedrine,
phenylpropanolamine and acetaminophen in dissolution
fluids and urine. The effects of buffer, pH and different
concentrations of organic solvent in the mobile phase on
chromatographic separation are described in Chapter I.
Dissolution...
