Desenvolvimento e caracterização de nanocápsulas de poli (L-lactídeo) contendo benzocaína

Abstract: Recebido em 12/12/08; aceito em 23/6/09; publicado na web em 13/11/09 DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLI (L-LACTIDE) NANOCAPSULES CONTAINING BENZOCAINE. In this paper we describe the preparation poly (L-lactide) (PLA) nanocapsules as a drug delivery system for the local anesthetic benzocaine. The characterization and in vitro release properties of the system were investigated. The characterization results showed a polydispersity index of 0.14, an average diameter of 190.1± 3 nm, zeta potential of -38.5 m… Show more

“…In order to confirm the results obtained by DLS, suggesting that the nanoparticles obtained have low polydispersity, the samples were analyzed by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), 36 a technique based on laser illumination microscopy, which allows the real-time analysis of the Brownian motion of nanoparticles using a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. In this method, nanoparticles in a liquid environment are visualized and tracked individually using image analysis software that deduces the diffusion coefficient of each particle and allows the determination of its hydrodynamic radius.…”

“…35,36 Aliquots (1 mL) were collected from the acceptor compartment at intervals of 2-1800 min and evaluated by UV-Vis spectroscopy at a wavenumber range of 210-250 nm. The aliquots removed were immediately replaced with an equal amount of water to keep a constant volume.…”

“…The analyses were performed after diluting the nanocapsule suspensions with Milli-Q water (1/100, v/v), with a ZS-90 (ZetaSizer, Malvern Instruments, UK) particle analyzer, at a fixed angle of 90º and temperature of 25°C. The size distribution and polydispersity were measured as a function of time (0, 30, 60 and 90 days), and expressed as the average of three determinations (22,25,46).…”

“…Modified release formulations for local anesthetics have been much studied in the literature, where the carrier systems investigated have included cyclodextrins (12,(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34), liposomes (35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43), or polymeric micro-and nanoparticulates (44)(45)(46)(47)(48). NC have been used as carriers for local anesthetics, since many of the pharmaceuticals (such as BZC) belonging to this class of chemicals possess low solubility (amongst other characteristics), which can be mitigated by encapsulation in the particles (3).…”
