Formulation strategy towards minimizing viscosity mediated negative food effect on disintegration and dissolution of immediate release tablets.
2017
Food induced viscosity can delay disintegration and subsequent release of API from solid dosage form which may lead to severe reduction in the bioavailability of BCS type III compounds. Formulations of such tablets need to be optimized in view of this postprandial viscosity factor. In this study, three super disintegrants, croscarmellose sodium (CCS), cross-linked polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (CPD), and sodium starch glycolate (SSG) were assessed for their efficiency under simulated fed state. Tablets containing these disintegrants were compressed at 10 and 30 KN, while taking lactose as a soluble filler. In addition to other compendial tests, disintegration force of these formulations was meas…
Effect of modified starch or maltodextrin incorporation on the barrier and mechanical properties, moisture sensitivity and appearance of soy protein …
2012
Abstract This work aimed to study the effect of starch (acetylated di-starch phosphate and starch acetate) and maltodextrin (DE 10.2 and DE 15.6) on the properties of soy protein isolate (SPI) films. Films were cast from heated (70 °C for 20 min) alkaline (pH 10) aqueous solutions of soy protein isolate (8%) containing glycerol (50% of SPI) as a plasticizer and starch or maltodextrin (20% of SPI). For all types of films, water vapor sorption kinetics during 24 h at 25 °C and 75% relative humidity (RH), diffusion coefficient of water vapor, water vapor permeability at 25 °C for two relative humidity differentials (40–75 and 40–100%), tensile strength and elongation at break, color and micros…
Die Elimination von Hydroxyäthylstärke 200/0,5, Dextran 40 und Oxypolygelatine
1982
After withdrawal of 400 ml whole blood and subsequent infusion of 500 ml of a colloidal plasma substituent, the intravascular and renal colloid elimination was investigated in 40 test subjects. The individual colloidal solutions could no longer be demonstrated in the intravascular space after the following times: 10% hydroxyethyl starch 200/0.5 (anthrone method) after six weeks, 10% dextran 40 (anthrone method) after two weeks, 6% hydroxyethyl starch 200/0.5 (anthrone method) after four weeks and 5.5% oxypolygelatine (hydroxyproline method) after two days. Colloidal plasma substitutes are polydisperse solutions with various molecular weights and degree of hydroxyethylation and therefore, al…
Commercial thickeners used by patients with dysphagia: Rheological and structural behaviour in different food matrices
2015
In order to achieve a safe swallowing in patients with dysphagia, liquids must be thickened. In this work, two commercial starch based thickeners dissolved inwater,whole milk, apple juice and tomato juice were studied. The thickeners were Resource®, composed of modified maize starch and Nutilis®, composed of modified maize starch and gums. They were formulated at two different concentrations corresponding to nectar- and pudding-like consistencies. Influence of composition, concentration and food matrix on rheological properties and structure of the resulting pastes were analysed. Viscoelastic measurements and microscopic observations of the thickeners dissolved in water revealed structural …
Modelling of Starch Gelatinisation and Liquefaction with the Enzyme Liquozyme
2011
In this paper the influence of the enzyme Liquozyme Supra concentration (0.4-1.2 kg/t dry substance DS) and gelatinisation time (3-11 min.) on the liquefied starch quality is investigated. The composition in sugars with different Degrees of Polymerisation (DP) as DP1 (glucose), DP2 (maltose), DP3 (maltotriose), DP4 (maltotetrose) and oligosaccharides with DP≥5 is analysed by using HPLC with RI detector. The products obtained have different DP, the main components being oligosaccharides with DP≥5, followed by small amount of DP3+DP4 and much smaller concentrations of DP1; no DP2 is produced by this enzyme. Two quality criteria: the percent of oligosaccharides with DP≥5 and the percent of DP1…
Influence of emulsion and powder size on the stability of encapsulated d-limonene by spray drying
2005
Abstract The microencapsulation of d -limonene by spray drying was investigated with respect to the effects of emulsion droplet size, powder particle size, as well as to the effects of various kinds of matrices (gum arabic, maltodextrin, and modified starch) on its stability. It was realized by studying release characteristics and oxidative stability during storage. The release and the oxidation decreased deeply with an increase in powder and emulsion particle size for gum arabic and maltodextrin materials. Further, the distributions of emulsion size in the powder showed an increase in the fraction of large emulsion droplets and changed to a bimodal distribution. However, the modified starc…
Assessment of Plant Origin By-Products as Lightweight Aggregates for Bio-Composite Bounded by Starch Binder
2022
Thermal insulation bio-composites made of plant origin by-products as bio-aggregates are one of the ways to decrease the impact of the building and construction sector on CO2 emissions. In this study, three bio-aggregates were analysed for their potential use in the production of bio-composites with potato starch binder. Technologically important properties, such as particle size, shape and compacted bulk density, as well as properties of the resulting bio-composites were identified. The main characteristics of the aggregates are relatively similar: density of 80–100 kg/m3, thermal conductivity of 0.042–0.045 W/m∙K, specific heat capacity of 1240–1330 J/g∙K, ki…
Retarded Elimination of a High-Molecular Enzyme-Substrate-Complex after Hydroxyethyl-Starch-Infusion
1978
During a pharmacokinetic study with hydroxyethyl starch we found, that this plasma substitute induces a regular increase of serum amylase. In 54 patients after infusion of 500 ml 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) an increase of serum amylase was observed, which in 51 cases exceeded the upper limit of normal (190 U/l). In most cases serum amylase reached values twice as high as the basal value. Renal function influenced duration of increased serum amylase values, but did not influence maximum increases (201 ±15 U/l; mean ± SEM). In patients with advanced renal failure (GFR = 2–10 ml/min) serum amylase was still markedly elevated after 72 hours (298 ± U/l; mean ± SEM). In patients with normal rena…
Water and temperature contribution to the structuration of starch matrices in the presence of flavour.
2016
The effect of hydrothermal treatments and flavours addition on starch structure and its physical properties were studied. Native wheat starch was treated at 2 different hydrations (water-starch ratios: 50/50 and 80/20 g w/w) and temperatures (65 and 85 °C) in the presence of flavours (ethyl hexanoate and 2-hexanone). The freshly prepared samples were subjected to DSC and flavour analysis. Flavour inclusion complex could not be detected by DSC, however the result of flavour analysis proved that there were flavours interactions with starch. Both ethyl hexanoate and 2-hexanone interacted with starch at similar rates. The highest flavour loss was found in the samples at high hydration and heate…
