RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To study the preparation technology of tamsulosion hydrochloride sustained-release capsules and investigate the release degree in vitro. METHODS: The pellets containing tamsulosin hydrochloride were prepeared in the fluid-bed using bottom gush medicine. Then, it was coated with ethylcellulose aqueous dispersion (surelease), and in the following procedures, water-based acrylic resin enteric system (Acryl-EZE®) was used as coating material, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose E6 (HPMCE6) was considered as porous agent by fluid-bed. Based on the release degree in vitro, prescription influence factors were evaluated, as well as drug releases curve was compared, according to the single factor experiment. RESULTS: The preparation technology referred in our research was available to make tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release capsules, and drug release curve of self-made sustained-release capsules was similar to the commercial one. Additionally, the products reproducibility of intra-batch and inter-batch was excellent. CONCLUSION: The tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release capsules prepared in this study exhibited ideal sustained-release characteristics in vitro. The formulation is reasonable and feasible. It is suitable for industrial production.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the biocompatibility of polyurethane-BaFe(12)O(19) magnetic composite microsphere as a new endovascular embolization material.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The biocompatibility of BaFe(12)O(19) particle was evaluated in vitro using Ames test, cell toxicity test, acute and subacute systemic toxicity test, hemolysis test, bleeding time and clotting time test and blood clotting function assay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Ames test showed that the MR values of this particle leaching solution were all less than 2 without mutagenicity. Cell toxicity test showed that leaching solution at different concentrations had grade I toxicity on L929 cells. Acute and subacute systemic toxicity test showed that the experimental animals had good general condition without obvious pathological abnormality. The hemolysis rate of experimental group was 2.43%, which met the ISO standard (no more than 5%). The bleeding time and clotting time in mice were comparable between the experimental group and control group (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in blood clotting function between experimental group and control group (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The material has no obvious toxicity or mutagenicity, and does not cause hemolysis or hemopexis or affect the bleeding time and clotting time. Polyurethane-BaFe(12)O( 19) particle possesses satisfactory biocompatibility.</p>
