Dissolution apparatus: apparatus 5 (paddle overdisk) & apparatus 6

Apparatus:-5 (Peddle Over Disk):


Apparatus: - 

  • Use apparatus – 2, with addition of a stainless steel assembly designed for holding transdermal system at the bottom of the vessel.
  • Temperature: 37 ± 0.05°.
  • Distance between Peddle & Disk: 25 ± 2 mm.
  • Dead volume is kept in mind.
  • Disk assembly holds the system flat & is positional such that the release surface is parallel with bottom of the paddle blade.
  • Apparatus suitability test & Dissolution medium :- 
  • Proceed as directed for apparatus : 2.

Procedure:-
Place dissolution medium & apply the transdermal system to the disk assembly in such a way so that releasing surface facing up.
Time: - The test time points, generally three, are expressed in hrs.
Sample withdrawn within a tolerance of ± 15 mins. & ±2 %.
Interpretation: - Quantities of the active ingredient released from the system confirm to Acceptance table.
Level
No. Tested
Criteria

The average value of the 24 units (L1+L2+L3) lies within the stated range. No more than 2 of the 24 units are out side the stated range more than 10% of the stated range; none of the unit is outside the stated range by more than 20% of the average of the stated range.  

Apparatus: - 6 (Cylinder)

Apparatus:-

  • Use Apparatus -1, except to replace the basket & shaft with a SS cylinder stirring element.
  • The dosage unit is placed on the cylinder at the beginning.
  • The distance between bottom of the vessel & cylinder is maintained at 25 ± 2 mm.


Dissolution medium: - Use the medium specified in individual monograph.

Procedure: - 
Place the stated volume f the medium. Remove the protective layer from the system, and place the adhesive on a piece of cuprophan that is not les than 1 cm larger than the system. Apply adhesive on the back side of the system & than to the cylinder.

Time & Interpretation: - Proceed as directed under apparatus 5.

ANTIOXIDANTS: In Pharmaceutical Formulation

Image
Introduction: Chemically they are reducing agents. They oxidize themselves and prevent oxidation of API. A substance that inhibits oxidation is called antioxidants. The effectiveness of antioxidant can depend on the concentration used and pH of solution. Examples:  Ascorbic acid,  butylated hydroxy anisole (BHA),  butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT) Oxidation is a chemical reaction involving the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state. Oxidation reactions can produce free radicals. In turn, these radicals can start chain reactions. When the chain reaction occurs in a cell, it can cause damage or death to the cell. Antioxidants terminate these chain reactions by removing free radical intermediates, and inhibit other oxidation reactions. The following are some of the qualities of an ideal anti-oxidant: It should be readily soluble or dispersible in the medium. It should be effective in low concentration. It should be non-toxic. It should be non-irrita

3. Development of working hypothesis:

Image
After extensive literature survey, researcher should state in clear terms the working hypothesis or hypotheses. Working hypothesis is tentative assumption made in order to draw out and test its logical or empirical consequences. As such the manner in which research hypotheses are developed is particularly important since they provide the focal point for research. They also affect the manner in which tests must be conducted in the analysis of data and indirectly the quality of data which is required for the analysis. In most types of research, the development of working hypothesis plays an important role. Hypothesis should be very specific and limited to the piece of research in hand because it has to be tested. The role of the hypothesis is to guide the researcher by delimiting the area of research and to keep him on the right track. It sharpens his thinking and focuses attention on the more important facets of the problem. It also indicates the type of data required
