Abstract

Recently, drug nanosuspensions have shown a potential for ophthalmic delivery. In this study, a hydrocortisone (HC) nanosuspension (NS) was developed using microfluidic nanoprecipitation as a recent, simple and cost-effective bottom-up technique of drug nanonization. For comparison, a second HC NS was prepared by top-down wet milling procedures. The produced nanosuspensions were characterized for particle size, shape and zeta potential. HC nanosuspensions of approximately 300nm particle size were produced by adjusting experimental conditions of the two processing techniques. Results of X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry revealed that HC maintained the crystalline structure upon milling, while predominant amorphous particles were generated after precipitation. Ocular bioavailability of HC nanosuspensions was assessed in albino rabbits using HC solution as a control. A sustained drug action was maintained up to 9h for the nanosuspensions compared to 5h for the drug solution. The precipitated and milled NS achieved comparable AUC(0-9h) values of 28.06±4.08 and 30.95±2.2, respectively, that were significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of HC solution (15.86±2.7). After 2 months storage at room temperature, the milled HC NS showed good stability with no discernable changes in particle size, whereas the particle size of the precipitated HC NS increased to 440nm.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
