Cards

Term
Liposomes via thin film
Definition
using Phosphotidyl choline plus cholesterol make a rigid spherical bilayer.
Phosphtidyl choline plus surfactant make an elastic liposome
Term
Surfactant liposome
Definition
Is elastic
pass thru filter easier
smaller
increase release rate
less stable
Term
Cholesterol liposome
Definition
rigid spherical liposome
Large than surfactant
lipid bilayer
more stable
Term
Zeta Potential
Definition
measures particle stability
Term
Salt (co-ions) added to phospholipid
Definition
can enhance drug loading, ion charge interaction with cell for drug release
Term
Adv of liposomes
Definition
biocompatible because of phospholipid
both hydrophobic and hydrophilic
protect drug
reduce toxicity
prolong half life
use passive and active targeting
Term
disadv of liposome
Definition
stability problems (lipid stability and drug leakage)
clearance by MPS
low drug loading
poor control of release
large variation in size
Term
stealth technology
Definition
PEG-Lytaled liposome is hydrophilic to increase MRT to prolong in circulation
decrease macrophage recognition
Term
liposome shape for syringe???
Definition
spherical and smooth shape
sml surface area increases drug release
Term
Nanoparticles via coacervation
Definition
uses Dextran sulphate -ve
chitosan +ve
opposite charges increase mechanical strength
safer for water soluble drugs
acetic acid is the solvent therefore stable
Term
formation factors
Definition
Charge ratio between DS:CS
size: effected by polymer concentration
increased viscosity by increased concentration
Drug targeting via homing device on surface
Term
Nanoparticle via evaporation
Definition
Adv: hydrophobic polymers and hydrophilic drugs
Disadv: use organic solvent
ultrasonic probe can degrade drug and alter particle size (short time use only)
Term
Disperse phase
Definition
polymer (DL-lactide)
Dichloromethane
Term
continuous phase
Definition
water
poly-vinyl alcohol (stabiliser)
Term
Microcapules via spray drying
Definition
for hydrophilic and phobic
not for heat sensitive drugs
can trap salt of the drug
can make suspension or emulsion
Solvent is water so polymer must be soluble
Glutaraldehyde is a cross linking agent to albumin to increase stability to make shell hard to control release
