Evaluation of Microcrystalline Chitosan and Fibrin Membranes as Platelet-Derived Growth Factor-BB Carriers with Amoxicillin

Abstract: The aim of this study was to describe the mechanical and sorption features of homogeneous and composite membranes which consist of microcrystalline chitosan (MCCh) and fibrin (Fb) in various proportions as well as thein vitrokinetics of platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) released from ten types of membranes in the presence or absence of amoxicillin (Am). The films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, mechanical tests: breaking strength (Bs) and elongation at break (Eb)… Show more

“…Profiles of Lid HCl release (Figures and ) revealed that the drug release was a two‐stage process with an initial faster effect and a slower second stage . In the first phase, this process was a function of the change in the drug concentration in the surface layer, of which the total release of particles was more easily accessible.…”

“…The kinetics of the drug release for the presented formulations as described previously could be depicted as the first‐order equation with two exponential functions: Mt/M=A0+A1true[1exptrue(k1ttrue)true] +A2true[1exptrue(k2ttrue)true] where A 0 is the percentage of substance not released from the surface and bonded with the polymeric formulation, A 1 is the percentage of substance released during the first phase, A 2 is the percentage of substance released during the second phase, and k 1 and k 2 are the rate constants for the first and second release phases.…”

“…The characteristic peak at 2920 cm -1 is attributed to the C-H stretching vibration. Moreover, a peak at 1590 cm -1 (related to the C=O stretching vibration of carboxymethyl) is shifted to a lower wavenumber as a result of the effect of the lone pair electrons on the adjacent oxygen atoms [26]. Simultaneously, the brands at 1420 cm -1 and 1330 cm -1 are ascribed to the in-plane blending of -OH (on the different site of the backbones).…”
