These interconnected macropores give elasticity to cryogels. Transdermal controlled-release systems can be used to deliver drugs with short biological half-life and can maintain plasma levels of very potent drugs within a narrow therapeutic range for prolonged periods. In this study, cryogels have been used in a different area--transdermal controlled-release system, to obtain controlled drug release medium. For this purpose, naproxen sodium has been selected as a model drug. Naproxen, a propionic acid derivative, is a NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug). For controlled releasing of naproxen sodium, cryogels that have naproxen sodium in macropores have been prepared in sheet form for local application. Acrylamide based cryogel bands have been synthesized by flee radical cryogelation process. These cryogel bands have different pore size and includes naproxen sodium in their pores. This cryogel material has been characterized by swelling tests and SEM. Then, releasing ofnaproxen sodium from cryogels has been investigated at two different pH values, 7.4 and 5.5. According to experimental data, it has seen that these cryogel matrices that including naproxen sodium in macropores could be used in controlled drug releasing systems as bandages or other transdermal controlled releasing agents at room temperature展开更多

The quantification of NpSd was done at 230 nm in methanol and in buffer of pH 6.8 and 9. Beer’s law was obeyed in the concentration range of 4 - 36 (r2 = 0.999) in methanol and 5 - 25 μgmL﹣1 in buffer of pH 6.8 and 9 (r2 = 0.988 and 0.997) respectively. The apparent molar absorptivity values were also calculated in all mediums. All parameters according to ICH guideline were tested and validated. The detection and quantitation limits were found to be 0.054, 0.083, 0.073 and 0.181, 0.251, 0.211 μgmL﹣1 respectively. These methods were applied directly to the analysis of the pharmaceutical tablet preparations (Anex? tablet 250 mg). The results demonstrated that the procedure is accurate, precise and reproducible (relative standard deviation 3%), while being simple, cheap and less time consuming and hence can be suitably applied for the estimation of NpSd in dosage forms and dissolution studies.展开更多
