Evaluation of rapidly disintegrating tablets prepared by a direct compression method

Bi, Y. X., Sunada, H., Yonezawa, Y., Danjo, K.·1999·Drug Development and Industrial Pharmacy

Abstract

To make rapidly disintegrating tablets with sufficient mechanical integrity as well as a pleasant taste, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), Tablettose (TT), and crosslinked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Ac-di-sol) or erythritol (ET) were formulated. Tablets were made by a direct compression method (I). Tablet properties such as porosity, tensile strength, and disintegration time were determined. The tensile strength and disintegration time were selected as response variables, tablet porosity and parameters representing the characteristics of formulation were selected as controlling factors, and their relation was determined by the polynomial regression method. Response surface plots and contour plots of tablet tensile strength and disintegration time were also constructed. The optimum combination of tablet porosity and formulation was obtained by superimposing the contour diagrams of tablet tensile strength and disintegration time. Rapidly disintegrating tablets with durable structure and desirable taste could be prepared within the obtained optimum region.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Porosity is a dependable and essential quality attribute for tablets, and it governs the mass transport processes behind disintegration and dissolution.

    “Tablet porosity is a reliable and fundamental critical quality attribute which controls key mass transport mechanisms that govern disintegration and dissolution behaviour.”
  • At very high porosity levels, certain disintegrants do not always follow the expected faster disintegration or dissolution behavior.

    “However, this is not always the case for certain types of disintegrants at very high tablet porosity levels (e.g., for rapidly disintegrating or dissolving tablets).”
  • Swelling of disintegrants such as CCS has been reported to involve gel formation that can substantially lengthen disintegration time.

    “The swelling of disintegrant like CCS has been reported to be accompanied by gel formation that can significantly prolong the disintegration time 26 .”

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.
