ABSTRACT

The dissolution rates of two lots of hydrocortisone (fine and coarse) were simulated using a computer program based on a Noyes-Whitney-type equation. Derivations of the equation were made to compare the accuracy of simulations using spherical and cylindrical particle geometry, with and without a time-dependent diffusion layer thickness. To approximate better the shape of the hydrocortisone particles, a shape factor was used to relate cylindrical length to radius. The most accurate simulations were obtained by assuming cylindrical geometry with and without a time-dependent diffusion layer thickness for the fine and coarse hydrocortisone, respectively. The program was also modified to simulate initial particle size distributions based on the log normal probability density function.
