Characterization of Drug Delivery Particles in Pharmaceutical Disperse Systems: A Review
Author(s): Ghazi ME Hussein24130*, Babiker M Elhaj24131 and Heyam Saad Ali24132
This review focuses on micromerties which is the science and technology of small particles. Pharmaceutical particle and powder characterization is key to pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and products as they often involve bulk powders in pharmaceutical dispersed systems. Particle size and powder properties will influence physical properties, such as the flowability of a powder, and in turn, will impact processing, blending, dissolution, delivery and bioavailability. Moreover, the appropriate selection of methods and particle engineering technologies of their production, characterization, are critical issues need considerations. Furthermore, optimization of their production process along with the drug/excipient particles, can provide insight understanding of their in vivo behaviour. In particular, characterization techniques for particle size distribution and morphology, drug loa.. Read More»
