Fasted-state simulated intestinal fluid "FaSSIF-C", a cholesterol containing intestinal model medium for in vitro drug delivery development.
A set of biorelevant media "fasted-state simulated intestinal fluid with cholesterol (FaSSIF-C)" for the in vitro study of intestinal drug dissolution in the duodenum was developed. These contain cholesterol at the same levels as in human bile: the cholesterol content of FaSSIF-7C is equivalent to healthy female, FaSSIF-10C to healthy male persons, and FaSSIF-13C to several disease cases that lead to gallstones. The fluids were studied in three aspects: biocompatibility, intestinal nanostructure, and solubilizing power of hydrophobic drugs of the BCS class II. The biocompatibility study showed no toxic effects in a Caco-2 cell system. The drug-solubilizing capacity toward Fenofibrate, Danaz…
Nanoparticle structure development in the gastro‐intestinal model fluid FaSSIF mod6.5 from several phospholipids at various water content relevant for oral drug administration
The characteristics of intestinal model fluids were investigated at conditions, which simulate the passage from the middle to the end of the duodenum. The formation and decay of liposomes and micelles in model bile fluids were studied, because of their role as an intermediate host for the resolution and uptake of hydrophobic drugs (BCS classes II, IV). The conditions, which may influence the formation of these nanoparticulate intermediates were studied, i.e., the lipid composition of the bile, the preparation method, the time of the passage through the modelled duodenum segment and the concentration, which results from the variable dilution of the bile by mixing with the transfer medium rep…
