Salbutamol sulfate is often micronized for use in dry powder inhalers. Therefore, it is of high interest to quantify the amorphous amount. It was investigated whether moisture sorption is able to measure the amorphous content of salbutamol sulfate. Different mixtures of amorphous and crystalline salbutamol sulfate were analyzed by moisture sorption. The amorphous material was obtained by spray drying. The measurement results were used to plot a calibration curve, which was used to quantify the amorphous amount in micronized salbutamol sulfate.
HAL is a multidisciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not. The documents may come from teaching and research institutions in France or abroad, or from public or private research centers. L'archive ouverte pluridisciplinaire HAL, est destinée au dépôt et à la diffusion de documents scientifiques de niveau recherche, publiés ou non, émanant des établissements d'enseignement et de recherche français ou étrangers, des laboratoires publics ou privés.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
