Rehydrated Lyophilized Rifampicin-Loaded mPEG–DSPE Formulations for Nebulization

Abstract: Abstract. Rifampicin-loaded nanoparticles were prepared using two different molecular weights of poly-(ethylene oxide)-block-distearoyl phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (mPEG2000-DSPE and mPEG5000-DSPE) polymers. Particle sizes of all formulations studied were in the range of 162-395 nm. The entrapment efficiency (EE) was not affected by the copolymer's molecular weight, and the highest EE (100%) was obtained with drug to copolymer ratio of 1:5. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermograms showed Tg of rif… Show more

“…50 Abdulla et al found that the release profile of rifampicin-SSMs followed both the firstorder and Higuchi kinetics models. 51 However, they only used the correlation coefficient to evaluate the goodness of fit. In our study, there were insignificant differences among the R 2 adjusted values following the first-order and Higuchi equation (P .…”

“…Moreover, a patient-friendly device that increases adherence and possibly enables monitoring of treatment should be investigated further 118. These parameters have been partially achieved with carriers (eg, liposomes, PEG, chitosan)53,58,63,69,71,72 encapsulating the antibiotic drug and with new aerosol production systems (eg, eFlow)124 and mouthpiece modifications 126. Three directions of investigation should summarized to (i) production system, (ii) efficient interface of production to deposition, and (iii) efficient local concentration (MIC max ) (Table 5).…”
