Relationship between particle size and dissolution rate of bulk powders and sieving characterized fractions of two qualities of orthoboric acid

Drug Dev. Ind. Pharm. ISI Document Delivery No.: VN279 Times Cited: 1 Cited Reference Count: 22 Tromelin, A Habillon, S Andres, C Pourcelot, Y Chaillot, B; International audience; We have carried out a study of the particle size distribution and aqueous dissolution rate of two commercially available qualities of orthoboric acid, labeled ''crystal'' (ABC) and ''powder'' (ABP). In a previous work, we have shown that the two commercial qualities of orthoboric acid chosen as model compound (''powder'' and ''crystal'') are related to the same crystal network in spite of their different names. However, these two qualities have very different size particle distributions, as previously determined b…
