Based on Eudragit® encapsulated ionic polymer IR775@nido-carborane strategy: release, bioactivity…
To enhance the bioavailability of carborane as a potential pharmacophore for BNCT, we labeled the modified o-carborane with the near-infrared dye IR775 and encapsulated it using two types of Eudragit® (pH-sensitive and osmotic). Consequently, four separate fluorescent complexes containing carborane…

Unveiling the potential of microsponges: Enhancing oral bioavailability
Abstract
Oral medication administration is widely recognized as the most practical and widely used method. Medications with a short half-life and easy absorption in the gastrointestinal tract are quickly removed by the bloodstream. To avoid these issues, oral controlled-release formulations have…

Colon-targeted 3D-Printed mesalamine tablets: Core-shell design and in vitro/ex-vivo evaluation
Abstract
Objectives
The present study is intended to develop a shell-core tablet using a hot melt extrusion (HME)-based dual-nozzle fused deposition modeling (FDM) three-dimensional (3D) printing approach. The primary objective was to establish a sustained-release colonic drug delivery system…

Fabrication of a Controlled-Release Core-Shell Floating Tablet of Ketamine Hydrochloride Using a 3D…
In this study, a novel floating, controlled-release and core-shell oral tablet of ketamine hydrochloride (HCl) was produced using a dual extrusion by 3D printing method. A mixture of Soluplus® and Eudragit® RS-PO was extruded by a hot-melt extrusion (HME) nozzle at 150–160 °C to fabricate the tablet…
