Objective: To synthesize, characterize and evaluate starch valerate as a superdisintegrant in the formulation of aceclofenac fast dissolving tablets by employing 23 factorial design. Methods: Starch valerate was synthesized and its physical and micromeritic properties were performed to evaluate it. The fast dissolving tablet of aceclofenac was prepared by employing starch valerate as a superdisintegrant in different proportions in each case by direct compression method using 23 factorial design for evaluation of tablet parameters like disintegration and dissolution efficiency in 5 min. Results: The starch valerate prepared was found to be fine, amorphous and free flowing. Starch valerate exhibited good swelling in water with swelling index (125.2%). The study of starch valerate was shown by fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR). The drug content (200±5%), hardness (3.5–4 kg/sq. cm), and friability (<0.15%) has been effective with regard to all the formulated fast dissolving tablets employing starch valerate. The disintegration time of all the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 14±0.04 to 25.7±0.02 sec. The optimized formulation F4 had the least disintegration time i.e., 12.8±0.02 sec. The wetting time of the tablets was found to be in the range of 76±0.21 to 217±0.17s. The In vitro wetting time was less (i.e., 28±0.02s) in optimized formulation F4. The water absorption ratio of the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 46±0.12 to 100±0.27%. The percent drug dissolved in the optimized formulation F8 was found to be 99.93% in 5 min. Conclusion: Starch valerate, when combined with sodium starch glycolate, croscarmellose sodium, with aceclofenac, was found to be an effective super disintegrant which improved the dissolution efficiency and could therefore be used in the formulation of quick dissolving tablets to provide immediate release of the contained drug within 5 min.
Objective: The main aim is to design, optimize, and evaluate ibuprofen fast-dissolving tablets by employing starch valerate-A novel super disintegrant. Methods: The fast-dissolving tablet of ibuprofen was prepared by employing starch valerate as super disintegrant in different proportions in each case by direct compression method using 23 factorial design, sodium starch glycolate, and crospovidone used as super disintegrants. In the 23 factorial design, these super disintegrants were applied to investigate the interaction effects of three variables, that is, (a) starch valerate, (b) sodium starch glycolate, and (c) crospovidone. The drug content, hardness, friability, disintegration time, and other dissolution characteristics were determined. Results: The starch valerate prepared was found to be fine, free-flowing, slightly crystalline powder. Starch xanthate exhibited good swelling in water with 125.2%. All the fast-dissolving tablets formulated employing starch valerate were of good quality with regard to drug content (100±5%), hardness (3.6–3.8 kg/sq. cm), and friability (0.11-0.12%). The disintegration time of all the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 12±0.02 to 30±0.02s. The optimized formulation FL8 has the least disintegration time, that is, 12±0. 02s. The in vitro wetting time of the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 21±0.09 to 44±0.10s. The in-vitro wetting time was less (i.e., 90s) in optimized formulation FL8. The water absorption ratio of the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 30±0.12 to 100±0.09%. Conclusion: Starch valerate was found to be a super disintegrant which enhanced the dissolution efficiency when combined with sodium starch glycolate, crospovidone, with the ibuprofen.
Objective: To synthesize, characterize and evaluate starch crotonate as a superdisintegrant in the formulation of Piroxicam fast dissolving tablets by employing 23 factorial design. Methods: Starch crotonate was synthesized and its physical and micromeritic properties were performed to evaluate it. The fast dissolving tablet of Piroxicam were prepared by employing starch crotonate as a superdisintegrant in different proportions in each case by direct compression method using 23 factorial design. Results: The starch chrotonate prepared was found to be fine, free flowing and amorphous. Starch crotonate exhibited good swelling in water with swelling index (50%).

The drug content (100±5%), hardness (3.6–4 kg/sq. cm), and friability (<0.15%) have been effective with regard to all the formulated fast dissolving tablets employing starch crotonate. The disintegration time of all the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 18±03 to 66±03 sec. The optimized formulation F8 had the least disintegration time i.e., 18±03 sec. The wetting time of the tablets was found to be in the range of 49.92±0.11 to 140±0.18s. The In vitro wetting time was less (i.e., 74±0.37s) in optimized formulation F8. The water absorption ratio of the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 27.58±0.01 to 123.07±0.33%. The percent drug dissolved in the optimized formulation F8 was found to be 99.83% in 10 min. Conclusion: Starch crotonate, when combined with sodium starch glycolate, croscarmellose sodium, with Piroxicam was found to be an effective super disintegrant which improved the dissolution efficiency and could therefore be used in the formulation of quick dissolving tablets to provide immediate release of the contained drug within 10 min.
