Influence of polymer molecular weight on in vitro dissolution behavior and in vivo performance of celecoxib:PVP amorphous solid dispersions
2016
In this study, the influence of the molecular weight of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) on the non-sink in vitro dissolution and in vivo performance of celecoxib (CCX):PVP amorphous solid dispersions were investigated. The dissolution rate of CCX from the amorphous solid dispersions increased with decreasing PVP molecular weight and crystallization inhibition was increased with increasing molecular weight of PVP, but reached a maximum for PVP K30. This suggested that the crystallization inhibition was not proportional with molecular weight of the polymer, but rather there was an optimal molecular weight where the crystallization inhibition was strongest. Consistent with the findings from the non…
Effect of polymer type and drug dose on the in vitro and in vivo behavior of amorphous solid dispersions.
2016
This study investigated the non-sink in vitro dissolution behavior and in vivo performance in rats of celecoxib (CCX) amorphous solid dispersions with polyvinyl acetate (PVA), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) at different drug doses. Both in vitro and in vivo, the amorphous solid dispersions with the hydrophilic polymers PVP and HPMC led to higher areas under both, the in vitro dissolution and the plasma concentration-time curves (AUC) compared to crystalline and amorphous CCX for all doses. In contrast, the amorphous solid dispersion with the hydrophobic polymer PVA showed a lower AUC both in vitro and in vivo than crystalline CCX. For crystalline CCX and…
Aqueous Solubility Diagrams for Cementitious Waste Stabilization Systems. 4. A Carbonation Model for Zn-Doped Calcium Silicate Hydrate by Gibbs Energ…
2002
A thermodynamic Gibbs energy minimization (GEM) solid solution-aqueous solution (SSAS) equilibrium model was used to determine the solubility of Zn from calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) phases doped with 0, 0.1, 1, 5, and 10% Zn at a unity (Ca+Zn)/Si molar ratio. Both the stoichiometry and standard molar Gibbs energy (G(o)298) of the Zn-bearing end-member in the ideal ternary Zn-bearing calcium silicate hydrate (CZSH) solid solution were determined by a "dual-thermodynamic" (GEM-DT) estimation technique. The SSAS model reproduces a complex sequence of reactions suggested to occur in a long-term weathering scenario of cementitious waste forms at subsurface repository conditions. The GEM model …
Effect of pseudo-gravitational acceleration on the dissolution rate of miscible drops
2017
The effect of pseudo-gravitational acceleration on the dissolution process of two phase miscible systems has been investigated at high acceleration values using a spinning drop tensiometer with three systems: 1-butanol/water, isobutyric acid/water, and triethylamine/water. We concluded that the dissolution process involves at least three different transport phenomena: diffusion, barodiffusion, and gravitational (buoyancy-driven) convection. The last two phenomena are significantly affected by the centrifugal acceleration acting at the interface between the two fluids, and the coupling with the geometry of the dissolving drop leads to a change of the mass flux during the course of the dissol…
Mass Transport Analysis of the Enhanced Buffer Capacity of the Bicarbonate-CO2 Buffer in a Phase-Heterogenous System: Physiological and Pharmaceutica…
2018
The bicarbonate buffer capacity is usually considered in a phase-homogeneous system, at equilibrium, with no CO2 transfer between the liquid buffer phase and another phase. However, typically, an in vitro bicarbonate buffer-based system is a phase-heterogeneous system, as it entails continuously sparging (bubbling) the dissolution medium with CO2 in a gas mixture, at constant ratio, to maintain a constant partial pressure of CO2 (g) and CO2(aq) molarity at a prescribed value, with CO2 diffusing freely between the gas and the aqueous phases. The human gastrointestinal tract is also a phase-heterogeneous system, with CO2 diffusing across the mucosal membrane into the mesenteric arterial blood…
Study of titanium alloy Ti6242S oxidation behaviour in air at 560°C: Effect of oxygen dissolution on lattice parameters
2020
Abstract High temperature oxidation of titanium alloy Ti6242S was studied in air at 560 °C up to 10000 h. Oxidation kinetics obeys a parabolic law (kp = 8.7 × 10−15 g². cm−4.s-1). Oxygen dissolution in the metal was found to represent between 80 and 90% of the total mass gain. Thin oxide scales are mainly composed of TiO2, in top of which some alumina is present. Titanium nitride was detected as a very thin layer at the outer part of the metallic substrate. Underneath, the oxygen dissolution area was found to reach the maximum brittleness after 1000 h of oxidation.
Anodic oxide films on tungsten—I. The influence of anodizing parameters on charging curves and film composition
1980
Abstract The formation of anodic films on tungsten has been studied in 1N solutions of H 2 PO 4 , H 2 SO 4 , HNO 3 , HClO 4 and HCl at different temperatures. The shape of the anodic charging curves depends on the electrolyte composition and on the temperature. The chemical composition of the films is strongly influenced by the working temperature. The first step of the anodization is the formation of a barrier film of amorphous WO 3 . The thickening of the oxide layer occurs on account of the WO 3 dissolution and following precipitation of sparingly soluble oxides on the electrode surface.
Anodic oxide films on tungsten—II. The morphology and dissolution of the films
1980
Abstract Scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the morphology of anodic oxide films on tungsten, obtained in various conditions of anodization. Studies were made of the growth of porous films, whose thickness increases with time and depends upon the current density. Temperature and electrolyte composition influence the film morphology. Gravimetric measurements of film dissolution at 70°C show that after a transient time, the rate of metal dissolution and that of film formation coincide. The porous films thicken because tungsten dissolves as WO 2 2+ and precipitates as WO 3 .H 2 O.
Electrochemical Determination of the Fe(III)/Fe(II) Ratio in Archaeological Ceramic Materials Using Carbon Paste and Composite Electrodes
2002
A method for determining the iron(III)/iron(II) ratio in ceramic materials based on microsample attachment to graphite/polyester composite electrodes is presented. This quotient is of considerable interest for determining the nature and firing conditions of the original materials in archaeological ceramics. The electrochemistry of iron in ceramic materials in acetic/acetate and Na2EDTA aqueous solutions is described in terms of reductive dissolution processes of iron(III) materials and oxidative dissolution processes of iron(II) ones. The iron(III)/iron(II) ratio is determined from peak area measurements in linear scan voltammograms performed in 0.10 M acetic/acetate buffer (pH 4.70) and 0.…
Photoelectrochemical monitoring of rouging and de-rouging on AISI 316L
2017
Electrochemical conditions for inducing rouging on surface of AISI 316L in quasi neutral aqueous solution are studied. Potentiostatic polarization at 0.6 V vs. SSC at pH ∼ 7 allowed growth of colourless passive films with a band gap slightly lower than that estimated for the oxide grown on the SS surface by air exposure due to chromium dissolution. Under stronger anodic polarization (UE = 1.5 V vs. SSC) coloured passive films are formed, mainly constituted by iron oxide according to their band gap (Eg = 2.0 eV). Etching in citric acid at 60 °C results to be effective in removing rouging.
