Application of Mixture Uniform Design in Optimizing the Proportion and Releasing Mechanism Study of GA and GB Hydrophilic Gel Matrix Tablets / 中国中医药信息杂志

Objective To optimize the prescription of GA and GB hydrophilic gel matrix tablets; To study the in vitro release mechanism. Methods On the basis of the results of the mono-factor investigation, mixture uniform design was used to optimize the handicraft molding prescription of GA and GB hydrophilic gel matrix tablets. The release mechanism was investigated by the vitro of the GA and GB hydrophilic gelmatrix tablets to accumulate releasing rate to conduct linear fitting. Results The optimized prescription of GA and GB hydrophilic gel matrix tablets was: powder: HPMC: lactose=23:24:53. Conclusion Mixture uniform design can be used to optimize the prescriptions of GA and GB hydrophilic gel matrix tablets, and the results are accurate. The hydrophilic gelmatrix tablets release medicine by non-Fick mechanism, and the medicine release is in accordance with zero-order.

Optimization of breviscapin sustainded release tablets by mixture uniform design / 中成药

AIM: To optimize the excipient formulation of lactose,HPMC_(SH4000) and Carbopol 71 G in breviscapin sustained release tablets by mixture uniform design. METHODS: Different formulations,single factor f_2 and multifactors of cumulative release as index,were evaluated respectively. RESULTS: The optical formulations obtained by the two methods were identical,and the tablets with optical formulation had ideal sustained release. CONCLUSION: Mixture uniform design is simple,direct and uniform.It can be used in optimization of formulation with invariable amount.

Study on the Direct Powder Compression Technique of Angelica Micropowder / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To study the direct powder compression technology of Angelica micropowder. METHODS: The formula of Angelica micropowder was optimized by mixture uniform design with tablet weight variation and friability as restrictive conditions, and a regression equation was established based on the comprehensive grading on the hardness and disintegration to figure out the optimal solution. DPS software was applied in the calculation. RESULTS: Prepared by the direct powder compression technology, the optimal formula of Angelica micropowder was obtained as follows: the hardness of the optimized tablet could reach as high as 75 N and the disintegrating time was about 10.24 min, with smooth and intact surface. CONCLUSION:The technology is reasonable in formulation and satisfactory in molding, and it can serve as theoretical basis for the production of Angelica tablets.
