RESUMEN

Abstract Liquid crystalline systems of glyceryl monooleate/water are used as drug delivery systems due to their complex structure that controls drug diffusion. Mucoadhesive properties of glyceryl monooleate suggest it can be used for buccal delivery. Using additives is a strategy to modify physical and chemical properties of liquid crystalline systems and optimize their performance as a drug delivery system. However, the presence of additives can significantly alter properties such as phase behavior, swelling and mucoadhesion. Our aim is to investigate the influence of additives on swelling and mucoadhesion of glyceryl monooleate-based liquid crystals, intending them to be used as buccal drug delivery systems. The systems were characterized regarding their mesophases, swelling rate, and mucoadhesion. All the systems studied were able to absorb water and presented mucoadhesion, which is interesting for the development of buccal drug delivery systems. Additives induced phase transitions and affected the swelling performance, while mucoadhesive properties were poorly affected. Propylene glycol increased water uptake, while oleic acid induced the phase transition to the hexagonal phase and reduced the swelling rate. The association of oleic acid (5%) and propylene glycol (10%) resulted in a cubic phase system with strong mucoadhesive properties that can be a potential drug carrier for buccal delivery.

RESUMEN

Ophthalmic formulations in terms of eye drops are more frequently used formulation for ocular disorders. But unfortunately this mode of drug instillation into the cul-de-sac of eye shows very poor ocular bioavailability (less than 5%). A large number of carrier systems have been investigated to overcome this problem. In the present study a novel nano-carrier system (Ketorolac loaded cubosomes) is developed and evaluated for the safe and enhance ocular bioavailability. Cubosomes were developed and optimized by utilizing glyceryl mono-oleate, poloxamer 407 and initial drug concentration. Finally developed formulation was evaluated for various In vitro characteristics i.e. particles size, size distribution, shape and morphology, in-vitro release profile, corneal permeation, corneal retention, and ocular tolerance study. The optimized drug loaded cubosomal formulation showed mean particle size, polydispersity index, and entrapment efficiency 127.3±12.23 nm, 0.205±0.011, and 53.27±5.23 %, respectively. Transmission electron microscopic analysis revealed a cubic shape of developed formulation. Further, developed formulation exhibited biphasic release profile. Significant high transcorneal permeation (2.07 folds) and corneal retention (2.24 folds) of ketorolac was observed with cubosomal formulation correspond to Ketorolac solution (p< 0.01). Further safety profile of optimized formulation was evaluated by histopathology of corneal membrane. The developed novel ocular carrier system (cubosomes) might be a promising platform as a vehicle for effective ocular drug delivery.
