Abstract
Oleanolic acid has been used only as a subsidiary agent in cosmetic products. The aim of the study is to show the effect of oleanolic acid as an active ingredient for the alleviation of wrinkles in humans and to develop a polymeric micelle formulation that enables poorly soluble oleanolic acid to be used as a main ingredient in cosmetic products for reducing wrinkles. The solubility of oleanolic acid was evaluated in solubilizers, surfactants, and polymers. The particle sizes and shapes of polymeric micelles containing oleanolic acid were evaluated by electrophoretic light scattering spectrophotometer and scanning electron cryomicroscopy. Encapsulation efficiency and skin permeation were measured by HPLC. Stability of the polymeric micelles stored at 40 °C for 3 months was evaluated by visual observation, particle size measurement, and oleanolic acid content measurement. Polymeric micelles in final product ampoule form were applied around the eyes of 23 female subjects for 8 weeks. Five skin parameters were evaluated by optical profilometry every 4 weeks for 8 weeks. In addition, professionals made visual observations of the skin and a human skin irritation study was conducted. Polymeric micelles of oleanolic acid with a particle size of less than 100 nm were prepared using Capryol 90® and poloxamer. The skin permeation rate of the oleanolic acid in the polymeric micelles was higher than that in the other solutions made of oleanolic acid dispersed in 2 different surfactants. No significant changes in particle size, color, or oleanolic acid content were observed, and the polymeric micelles stored at 40 °C for 3 months did not undergo phase separation. After 8 weeks of application, skin irritation had not developed and all five parameters evaluated by optical profilometry as well as the visual evaluation scores were significantly improved. This study showed that the polymeric micelles of oleanolic acid prepared in this study were stable and effective at alleviating wrinkles in humans as the principal active ingredient. Based on these findings, it is expected that polymeric micelles of oleanolic acid can be widely used in cosmetic applications.

Abstract
Recently it was reported that upon mechanical milling of pure furosemide significant chemical degradation occurs (Adrjanowicz et al. Pharm. Res.2011, 28, 3220-3236). In this paper, we present a novel way of chemical stabilization amorphous furosemide against decomposing that occur during mechanical treatment by preparing binary mixtures with acylated saccharides. To get some insight into the mechanism of chemical degradation of furosemide induced by cryomilling, experimental investigations supported by density functional theory (DFT) computations were carried out. This included detailed studies on molecular dynamics and physical properties of cryoground samples. The main thrust of our paper is that we have shown that furosemide cryomilled with acylated saccharides forms chemically and physically stable homogeneous mixtures with only one glass transition temperature, Tg. Finally, solubility measurements have demonstrated that furosemide cryomilled with acylated saccharides (glucose, maltose and sucrose) is much more soluble with respect to the crystalline form of this active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a hydrophilic carrier on the solid-state and dissolution characteristics of poorly water-soluble drugs. Three poorly water-soluble drugs, ibuprofen, carbamazepine, and nifedipine, were studied in combination with hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), a low molecular weight hydrophilic polymer, without the use of solvent. A 1:1 drug-polymer ratio was used to evaluate the percent drug release, crystallinity, and wettability. A drug-polymer ratio of 1:4 was also used in co-grinding process to evaluate the effect of polymer levels on drug release. Dissolution studies were carried out in deionized water. Mean dissolution time (MDT) was calculated, and statistical analysis of MDTs was done following a single factor one-way analysis of variance. The dissolution rate of the drugs was enhanced by several folds by the simple process of co-grinding with HPC. X-ray diffraction studies were done to investigate the effects of physical and co-ground mix with HPC on the crystallinity of the drugs, which indicated a partial loss in crystallinity upon grinding. Differential scanning calorimetry studies were performed in order to identify possible solid-state interactions between the respective drugs and HPC. Wettability of the drugs by a 0.5% aqueous HPC solution was compared with that of water and n-hexane using the "Washburn method." Increased wetting and hydrophilization of the drugs by HPC, enlarged surface area due to particle size reduction, and a decrease in the degree of crystallinity were identified as the likely contributors to dissolution rate enhancement.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of d-alpha-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (vitamin E TPGS) on the dissolution of carbamazepine (CBZ) commercial tablets (Tegretol®) as a function of temperature and to modify the reaction-limited model of dissolution for the description of classical supersaturated dissolution data.
Methods
Solubility studies were performed using various concentrations of (i) TPGS and (ii) silicon dioxide and microcrystalline cellulose, which are excipients of Tegretol® at 10, 25 and 37°C. Dissolution studies were carried out using Tegretol® tablets, 200 mg/tab.
Key findings
The solubility of CBZ in the presence of TPGS was found to increase in a concentration-dependent manner at all temperatures studied. Classical supersaturated dissolution curves with concentration maxima higher than the corresponding solubility values in the presence of TPGS were observed only at 10°C. The model developed was based on a time-dependant expression for the forward microconstant of the CBZ-TPGS reaction at the solid–liquid interface and it was fitted successfully to the dissolution data of CBZ in the presence of TPGS at 10°C.
Conclusions
Vitamin E TPGS increased the solubility of CBZ at all temperatures studied. The modification of the reaction-limited model of dissolution allowed us to describe classical supersaturated dissolution curves.

Abstract
Cryomilling was applied to obtain amorphous forms of the base ziprasidone and its hydrochloride salt. Complete amorphization of both samples was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray measurements. As it turned out, cryogrinding is very effective way to obtain these drugs in the amorphous state, especially because melting of both ziprazidones accompanies significant chemical decomposition as revealed by ultra performance liquid chromatography examination. Consequently, the glassy state cannot be reached in conventional way, that is, by supercooling of melt. Broadband dielectric relaxation measurements were performed on both drugs to describe their molecular dynamics above as well as below their glass transition temperatures (T(g)). We found out that ziprasidone base and its hydrochloride salt differ in T(g) in the same way as it was previously reported for tramadol monohydrate and its hydrochloride. Moreover, our dielectric studies revealed that molecular mobility is not the main factor controlling kinetics of crystallization of both ziprasidones above their T(g) . Below the T(g) relaxation related to water as well as secondary relaxation process originating from the intermolecular interaction (Johari-Goldstein) were identified in the loss spectra of both materials. We have demonstrated that except of local mobility, water is the dominant factor moving both ziprasidones toward recrystallization process. Finally, we have also carried out solubility measurements to show that dissolution rate of the amorphous ziprasidones is much higher with respect to the crystalline samples.

Abstract
Dielectric relaxation measurements as well as differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction investigations were performed on tramadol monohydrate and its hydrochloride salt. Examined samples do not crystallize during cooling and in consequence they reach the glassy state. In the case of the hydrochloride tramadol we are able to monitor alpha-relaxation process despite large contribution of dc conductivity to the loss spectra. It is the first such study on the salt of the drug. Up to now the dielectric spectroscopy has been regarded as useless in measuring such kind of API (active pharmaceutical ingredient). In this paper we also made some suggestions about the nature of the secondary relaxations in the amorphous tramadol monohydrate and its salt. The knowledge about the molecular mechanisms, which govern the observed secondary relaxations seems to be the key in predicting the stability of the amorphous form of the examined API. Finally additional dissolving measurements on the amorphous and crystal tramadol hydrochloride were performed. As a result we understood that dissolution properties of the amorphous form of the considered drug are comparable to those of crystalline one. However, we have found out that amorphous tramadol hydrochloride has greater ability to form tablets than its crystalline equivalent. This finding shows that amorphous drugs can be alternative even for the freely solved pharmaceuticals such as tramadol hydrochloride, because the former one has better ability to form tablets. It implies that during tabletting of the amorphous drugs there is no need to use any excipients and chemicals improving compaction properties of the API.

Abstract
The present study investigated the effect of co-grinding raloxifene HCL (RHCL) with different superdisintegrants, namely crospovidone (CP), croscarmellose sodium (CCS) and sodium starch glycolate (SSG), using a ball mill, in order to determine the potential effect on dissolution rate and bioavailability of raloxifene hydrochloride (RHCL). The dissolution studies of the co-ground compositions and the corresponding physical mixtures were carried out in U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) Type II apparatus. The solid state interactions of the co-ground and the physical mixtures were evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The pharmacokinetics of co-ground mixture (1 : 5 RHCL : CP) and milled RHCL was evaluated following oral administration (25 mg/kg) in healthy female Sprague-Dawley rats. DSC studies showed that the crystalline nature of RHCL was reduced after co-grinding with superdisintegrants, while co-grinding with CP resulted in significant particle-size reduction of the mixture. Significant enhancement in dissolution rate was observed with co-ground mixture of RHCL with CP (1 : 5). The extent of the mean plasma exposures of RHCL was 7-fold higher in animals treated with co-ground mixture of RHCL, CP (1 : 5) compared to animals treated with milled RHCL. Co-grinding of RHCL with CP, reduced drug crystallinity, increased the rate and extent of dissolution, and improved bioavailability.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to explore the cogrinding technique as a tool to slow down the drug release from capsule formulations. To this end, the physical mixtures of theophylline-magnesium stearate were prepared and subjected to different milling times (1, 15, 30, 120 min). In order to investigate the effect of magnesium stearate concentration on drug release, various concentrations of magnesium stearate (1%, 3%, 5%, and 10%, w/w) were used. The dissolution rate of the drug from coground samples and physical mixtures were determined at pH 6.5 according to USP. The results showed that all coground formulations showed slower release rates than their physical mixture counterparts. The effect of cogrinding time on the drug release was complex. Cogrinding time had no significant effect on drug release when the amount of magnesium stearate was 1% (w/w). When the amount of magnesium stearate was increased from 1% to 3% and cogrinding time increased from 1 to 5 min, there was a significant reduction in drug release. Beyond 5-min cogrinding, the drug release increased again. For coground samples containing 5% or 10% (w/w) magnesium stearate, generally, the highest drug release was obtained at higher cogrinding time. This was due to a significant increase in surface area of particles available for dissolution as proven by scanning electron microscopy results. Fourier transform infrared and differential scanning calorimetry results ruled out any significant interaction between theophylline and magnesium stearate in solid state.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of different classes of hydrophilic carriers (poly vinyl pyrrolidones [PVPs] [Plasdone K-25 and Plasdone S-630], cellulosic polymers [hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and hydroxy propyl cellulose], and Sodium Alginate) on the solid state and dissolution rate of Raloxifene hydrochloride (R-HCl). Solid state characterizations of co-ground mixtures and physical mixtures in 1:1 and 1:2 ratios of drug to polymer were performed by employing laser diffractometer for particle size and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) for solid state interactions. The results of particle size studies showed that only co-grinding with PVPs was more effective in the reduction of particle size than the milling of drug alone. DSC study indicated that the crystalline nature of the drug was reduced after co-grinding with PVPs when compared with their corresponding physical mixtures. The hydrophilic carriers other than PVPs did not reduce the crystalline nature of the drug significantly. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were carried out for selected batches to confirm DSC results. Significant enhancement in dissolution rate and extent was observed with co-ground mixtures of drug and PVPs. Plasdone S-630 was found to be a better carrier for R-HCl in terms of achieving improvement in dissolution. In vitro dissolution data can be described by Hixson-Crowell model, indicating the drug release mechanism predominated by erosion.

Abstract
Co-ground powders of the poorly water-soluble drug nifedipine and a hydrophilic carrier, [partially hydrolyzed gelatin (PHG), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), polyethylene glycol (PEG), urea or Pluronic F108] were prepared in order to improve the dissolution rate of nifedipine. The effects of type of grinding equipment, grinding time, and type of hydrophilic carrier on the crystallinity of nifedipine (x-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry) on the interaction between drug and carriers (differential scanning calorimetry), on the particle size and appearance (scanning electron microscopy), on the wettability (contact angle measurements), and on the drug release were investigated. Grinding nifedipine together with these carriers improved the dissolution rate. PHG-ground mixtures resulted in the fastest dissolution rate followed by PVP, SDS, HPMC, Pluronic, urea, and PEG. This effect was not only due to particle size reduction, which increased in the order PHG<PEG=SDS<Pluronic<drug<urea<HPMC<PVP, but also resulted from the ability of some carriers (PVP and HPMC) to prevent reaggregation of the finely divided drug particles. PVP, HPMC, and PHG formed a powder with amorphous drug. The carriers improved the wettability of the ground products in the order HPMC<drug<urea<PVP<SDS<PHG<PEG<Pluronic. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements gave valuable information about the nature of drug crystallinity and the interactions with the carriers within the ground mixtures.

Abstract
Controlled precipitation produced aqueous nanoparticle suspensions of a poorly water soluble drug, itraconazole (ITZ), in an amorphous state, despite unusually high potencies (drug weight/total weight) of up to 94%. Adsorption of the amphiphilic stabilizer hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) at the particle-aqueous solution interface arrested particle growth, producing surface areas from 13 to 51 m(2)/g. Dissolution of the particles in acidic media yielded high plateau levels in supersaturation up to 90 times the equilibrium solubility. The degree of supersaturation increased with particle curvature, as characterized by the surface area and described qualitatively by the Kelvin equation. A thermodynamic analysis indicated HPMC maintained amorphous ITZ in the solid phase with a fugacity 90 times the crystalline value, while it did not influence the fugacity of ITZ in the aqueous phase. High surface areas led to more rapid and levels of supersaturation higher than those seen for low-surface area solid dispersions, which undergo crystallization during slow dissolution. The rapid generation of high levels of supersaturation with potent amorphous nanoparticles, containing small amounts of stabilizers oriented at the particle surface, offers new opportunities for improving bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs.

Abstract
To develop a 13C-urea-containing capsule for more economic and sensitive diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection, the 13C-urea-containing capsules were prepared with various additives such as polyethylene glycol, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium lauryl sulfate and citric acid. Their dissolution test and 13C-urea Breath Test in human volunteers were then performed. Polyethylene glycol increased the initial dissolution rates of urea and difference delta 13C values from 13C-urea, while microcrystalline cellulose and sodium lauryl sulfate decreased them. Irrespective of addition of citric acid, the compositions with polyethylene glycol showed higher values from 13C-urea compared to a commercial 76 mg 13C-urea-containing capsule due to higher initial dissolution rate. The capsules with 38 mg 13C-urea and 1.9 mg polyethylene glycol, which showed higher Helicobacter pylori-positive value of about 8 per thousand at 10 min, improved the sensitivity of 13C-urea in human volunteers. Thus, the 13C-urea-containing capsule with polyethylene glycol would be a more economical and sensitive preparation for diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection.

Abstract
The existence of different solid-state forms such as polymorphs, solvates, hydrates, and amorphous form in pharmaceutical drug substances and excipients, along with their downstream consequences in drug products and biological systems, is well documented. Out of these solid states, amorphous systems have attracted considerable attention of formulation scientists for their specific advantages, and their presence, either by accident or design is known to incorporate distinct properties in the drug product. Identification of different solid-state forms is crucial to anticipate changes in the performance of the material upon storage and/or handling. Quantitative analysis of physical state is imperative from the viewpoint of both the manufacturing and the regulatory control aimed at assuring safety and efficacy of drug products. Numerous analytical techniques have been reported for the quantification of amorphous/crystalline phase, and implicit in all quantitative options are issues of accuracy, precision, and suitability. These quantitative techniques mainly vary in the properties evaluated, thus yielding divergent values of crystallinity for a given sample. The present review provides a compilation of the theoretical and practical aspects of existing techniques, thereby facilitating the selection of an appropriate technique to accomplish various objectives of quantification of amorphous systems.

Abstract
The design of the novel O/W microemulsion formulation, which enhances the oral bioavailability by raising the solubility of poorly water soluble compounds was examined. Using medium chain fatty acid triglyceride (MCT), diglyceryl monooleate (DGMO-C), polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil 40 (HCO-40), ethanol and PBS (pH 6.8) as an oil phase, a lipophilic surfactant, a hydrophilic surfactant, a solubilizer and an aqueous phase, at the mixture ratio of 5%/1%/9%/5%/80% (w/w), respectively, the O/W microemulsion with an average particle diameter of 20 nm or less was prepared. Moreover, for nine kinds of poorly water soluble compounds, such as Ibuprofen, Ketoprofen, Tamoxifen, Testosterone, Tolbutamide and other new compounds, the solubility to water was increased from 60 to 20,000 times by this O/W microemulsion formulation. The AUCs in plasma concentration of Ibuprofen and a new compound, ER-1039, following single oral administration of these compounds as the O/W microemulsion to fasted rats were equivalent to that of solution administration or increased by nine and two times that of suspension administration, respectively. Accordingly, this novel O/W microemulsion is a useful formulation, which enhances the oral bioavailability by raising the solubility of poorly water soluble compounds.

Abstract
Drug powders containing micron-size drug particles are used in several pharmaceutical dosage forms. Many drugs, especially newly developed substances, are poorly water soluble, which limits their oral bioavailability. The dissolution rate can be enhanced by using micronized drugs. Small drug particles are also required in administration forms, which require the drug in micron-size size due to geometric reasons in the organ to be targeted (e.g., drugs for pulmonary use). The common technique for the preparation of micron-size drugs is the mechanical comminution (e.g., by crushing, grinding, and milling) of previously formed larger particles. In spite of the widespread use of this technique, the milling process does not represent the ideal way for the production of small particles because drug substance properties and surface properties are altered in a mainly uncontrolled manner. Thus, techniques that prepare the drug directly in the required particle size are of interest. Because physicochemical drug powder properties are decisive for the manufacturing of a dosage form and for therapeutic success, the characterization of the particle surface and powder properties plays an important role. This article summarizes common and novel techniques for the production of a drug in small particle size. The properties of the resulting products that are obtained by different techniques are characterized and compared.

Abstract
Phenytoin (pulverized powder), mefenamic acid (capsule), and sulpiride (film-coated tablet) are currently available on the Japanese market. For absorption of these drugs from their pharmaceutical preparations, they must disintegrate and dissolve during passage through the gastrointestinal tract. The bioavailability of these drugs differ among different pharmaceutical preparations and even for the same preparation. This led to a review of the influence of the features of pharmaceutical preparations and the physicochemical properties of film coating materials as well as the physiologic factors affecting drug bioavailability. The influence of coadministered drugs and concomitant intake of beverages and food on the bioavailability of drugs from pharmaceutical preparations is also described.

Abstract
Poorly water-soluble drugs N-5159, griseofulvin (GFV), glibenclamide (GBM) and nifedipine (NFP) were ground in a dry process with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Different crystallinity behavior of each drug during grinding was shown in the ternary Drug/PVP/SDS system. However, when each ternary Drug/PVP/SDS ground mixture was added to distilled water, crystalline nanoparticles which were 200 nm or less in size were formed and had excellent stability. Zeta potential measurement suggested that the nanoparticles had a structure where SDS was adsorbed onto the particles that were formed by the adsorption of PVP on the surface of drug crystals. Stable existence of crystalline nanoparticles was attributable to the inhibition of aggregation caused by the adsorption of PVP and SDS on the surface of drug crystals. Furthermore, the electrostatic repulsion due to the negative charge of SDS on a shell of nanoparticles could be assumed to contribute to the stable dispersion.

Abstract
To improve the solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs, we studied physical characteristics of griseofulvin (GF) solid dispersions with saccharides as the dispersion carrier using a roll mixing method. In all carriers tested, roll mixtures of GF and saccharides gradually became amorphous, and the solubility of GF increased. The solubility of GF was higher in the mixtures with higher molecular weight carriers such as corn starch and processed starch. The dissolution of GF was markedly improved by the GF-Britishgum roll mixture. The initial dissolution rate of these mixtures was 170-fold higher than GF alone. The surface tension of carrier aqueous solutions was low in the processed starch with branched sugar chains. The initial dissolution rate of GF in physical mixtures was correlated with the surface tension of carrier aqueous solutions. The stability of the amorphous state of GF at a high humidity was maintained in the mixtures with carriers with a high molecular weight. These results indicated that the solubility of GF was markedly improved in the roll mixtures. It was suggested that the saccharides with a high molecular weight are useful carriers for solid dispersions.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the structural relaxation and molecular mobility of amorphous celecoxib (CEL) with that of CEL amorphous mixtures consisting of various excipients and to study the effect of different excipients on the relaxation of high-energy amorphous systems. METHODS The measurement of glass transition temperatures (Tg) and enthalpy relaxation were performed using differential scanning calorimetry. The interactions between drug and excipients and the absence of crystalline forms were further confirmed by conducting Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic and X-ray powder diffraction studies on same samples. RESULTS All samples exhibited a single Tg value. Polymers had a prominent effect on the lowering of the relaxation rate in amorphous CEL. The lowering of the rate of relaxation was directly dependent on the concentration and type of polymer used. The total enthalpy required for relaxation was same, although additives affected the rate of relaxation. CONCLUSIONS In absence of any specific interactions during Fourier transform infrared studies, it was concluded that the antiplasticizing activity of polymers is responsible for the stabilization of CEL amorphous systems. Glassy amorphous dispersions of CEL exhibited a complex type of relaxation pattern, which failed to fit in Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts equation with respect to calculation of relaxation time constants.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to prepare amorphous precipitates of the binary system of cimetidine (CIM) and diflunisal (DIF) and to investigate the physicochemical properties of the precipitates. To achieve this, the interaction between CIM and DIF molecules was studied by means of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) measurements. The binary system of CIM and DIF was found to become amorphous upon precipitation from ethanol solution, without heating or melting. In the thermal analysis by TG-DTA equipped with a mass spectrometer, decarboxylation of DIF was found to occur below its melting temperature. In NMR studies, the chemical shifts of a proton in the imidazole ring of CIM and the carbon to which the DIF carboxyl group is bound were found to change depending on the composition of the binary system. The change in NMR chemical shifts suggested that a salt was formed between CIM and DIF. The precipitates had higher solubility than intact drugs due to this salt formation. The results suggest that CIM may be useful as an amorphous carrier, without requiring heating or melting, due to the formation of a salt with acidic drugs.

Abstract
Sodium deoxycholate (DCNa) is a bile salt that forms multimolecular inclusion compounds with a variety of organic substances. In this study, complex formulation of DCNa with nifedipine, a poorly water soluble drug, by grinding was investigated. The coground mixture was prepared with a vibration rod mill, and its solid state was characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. A laser diffraction particle size analyzer was also used to determine the particle size distribution curve in solution. When a nifedipine-DCNa (1:2 w/w) mixture coground for 30 min was dispersed into water and a pH 6.8 buffer solution, a semitransparent colloidal solution occurred immediately; 90% of the total particles formed in solution had a diameter less than 600 nm. Both powder X-ray diffraction peaks and DSC endothermic peak of nifedipine crystals were not found for the coground mixture, whereas a new exothermic peak was observed on DSC thermograms. The magnitude of this exothermic peak depended on the weight fraction of DCNa and the grinding time, indicating that nifedipine crystals changed into an amorphous state by complex formation with DCNa during the grinding process. In the FTIR spectrum of the coground mixture, the peaks of aromatic CH out-of-plane bend and dihydropyridine NH stretch of nifedipine were considerably weakened, suggesting that van der Waals interaction may be present between the drug and DCNa molecules. From these results, it is clear that the cogrinding method with DCNa is very useful for the formation of amorphous nifedipine in the solid state and the production of colloidal particles of the drug in solution.

Ground mixtures of ketoprofen (KETO) with native crystalline beta-cyclodextrin, amorphous statistically substituted methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, and microcrystalline cellulose were investigated for both solid phase characterization (differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) powder X-ray diffractometry, and infrared (IR) spectrometry) and dissolution properties (dispersed amount and rotating disk methods) to evaluate the role of the carrier on the performance of the final product. The effects of different grinding conditions, partial sample dehydration, and 1 year storage at room temperature were also investigated. The results pointed out the importance of the carrier nature on the efficiency of the cogrinding process. Both cyclodextrins were much more effective than was microcrystalline cellulose, even though no true inclusion complex formation occurred by mechanochemical activation. The best results were obtained from ground mixtures with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, which showed the best amorphizing and solubilizing power toward the drug and permitted an increase of approximately 100 times its intrinsic dissolution rate constant, in comparison with the approximate 10 times increase obtained from ground mixtures with beta-cyclodextrin.

Abstract
Some acidic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are poorly soluble in the stomach. In this study, M-5011, d-2-[4-(3-methyl-2-thienyl) phenyl] propionic acid, was used as a model substance. To increase the dissolution rate of M-5011, a solid dispersion of M-5011 was prepared by the powder mixing method using Eudragit E-100 (aminoacryl methacrylate copolymer) as a carrier. Evaluation by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed that M-5011 easily formed a solid dispersion with E-100. The dissolution behavior of a physical mixture prepared immediately after mixing and the mixture stored for 14 days at 40 degrees C were examined. It was observed that the former, containing a great deal of E-100, showed a fairly good dissolution behavior, and the latter had a better dissolution rate. The mechanism of the interaction of M-5011 and E-100 was investigated by infrared (IR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The interaction was simulated by NMR using a monomer of Eudragit E-100.

Abstract
We have found that the binary system, consisting of a precipitate of cimetidine and naproxen, became amorphous due to intermolecular interaction. In order to clarify the interaction between cimetidine and other drugs, the physicochemical properties of binary systems consisting of cimetidine and drugs, phenacetin, salicylamide or indomethacin, were investigated. X-ray powder diffraction patterns and thermal analysis findings for the precipitates indicated that the cimetidine-indomethacin system has an amorphous structure, whereas the cimetidine-phenacetin and cimetidine-salicylamide systems do not. Fourier-transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy findings suggested that there is an intermolecular interaction between a proton in the imidazole ring of cimetidine and the C=O in the COOH of indomethacin. Since an interaction by the hydrogen bond between cimetidine and indomethacin would prevent three-dimensional arrangements of the molecules, the precipitate would be amorphous. In the cimetidine-indomethacin system, decarboxylation of indomethacin occurred below the melting temperature, indicating that the chemical stability decreased upon precipitation. Cimetidine was found to interact with drugs with a carboxyl group. The interaction would be applicable to make the amorphous system of the drugs and increase the solubility of the drugs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To measure solid-state features of amorphous molecular dispersions of indomethacin and various molecular weight grades of poly(vinylpyrrolidone), PVP, and poly(vinylpyrrolidone-co-vinylacetate), PVP/VA, in relation to isothermal crystallization of indomethacin at 30 degrees C. METHODS The glass transition temperatures (Tg) of molecular dispersions were measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). FT-IR spectroscopy was used to investigate possible differences in interactions between indomethacin and polymer in the various dispersions. The enthalpy relaxation of 5%w/w and 30%w/w polymer dispersions was determined following various aging times. Quantitative isothermal crystallization studies were carried out with pure indomethacin and 5%w/w polymers in drug as physical mixtures and molecular dispersions. RESULTS All coprecipitated mixtures exhibited a single glass transition temperature. All polymers interacted with indomethacin in the solid state through hydrogen bonding and in the process eliminated the hydrogen bonding associated with the carboxylic acid dimers of indomethacin. Molecular mobility at 16.5 degrees C below Tg was reduced relative to indomethacin alone, at the 5%w/w and 30%w/w polymer level. No crystallization of indomethacin at 30 degrees C was observed in any of the 5%w/w polymer molecular dispersions over a period of 20 weeks. Indomethacin alone and in physical mixtures with various polymers completely crystallized to the y form at this level within 2 weeks. CONCLUSIONS The major basis for crystal inhibition of indomethacin at 30 degrees C at the 5%w/w polymer level in molecular dispersions is not related to polymer molecular weight and to the glass transition temperature, and is more likely related to the ability to hydrogen bond with indomethacin and to inhibit the formation of carboxylic acid dimers that are required for nucleation and growth to the gamma crystal form of indomethacin.

Abstract
A recursion equation which relies on the population growth model of dissolution is used for the analysis of supersaturated dissolution data. The concentration-time data of dissolution experiments are initially transformed to fractions of dose dissolved-generations by adopting an appropriate time interval as the time step of the recursion equation. A computer program is used to derive estimates for the maximum fraction of dose dissolved and the fraction of dose remaining in solution at steady state. Good fittings were observed when this equation was applied to phenytoin and nifedipine supersaturated dissolution data obtained from literature.

Abstract
Samples of indomethacin and kaolin or microcrystalline cellulose (Avicel) were prepared by solvent deposition or simple blending methods. Dissolution rates of these samples were studied. The surface adsorption of indomethacin on the studied adsorbents was shown to improve the dissolution rate of the drug in water. The solvent-deposited samples of indomethacin on kaolin or Avicel in the ratio 1:4 released 25% of the drug at 34 or 60 min, respectively (t25%), while 25% of the pure drug was released at 140 min. Meanwhile, the t25% of the corresponding drug-adsorbent simple blends were 108 and 110 min, respectively. The effect of addition of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as a third component to indomethacin-adsorbent was studied and showed further improvement in in vitro availability of the drug-kaolin adsorbents.
