Abstract
In this research work, a new biocompatible microemulsion containing castor oil has been formulated to increase the solubility of celecoxib, as a well-known anti-inflammatory drug. In this formulation castor oil has also anti-inflammatory properties. The proposed oil-in-water microemulsion composed of Tween 80 as surfactant, isobutanol as co-surfactant, and castor oil as the oil phase. In the first step, the phase diagrams of the proposed colloid systems with surfactant to co-surfactant mass ratios of 4 : 1 and 2 : 1 were prepared at ambient temperature. Then, using the obtained phase diagrams, the appropriate formulations were selected by combining different percentages of water, oil, surfactant and co-surfactant in the microemulsion region. Some of physico-chemical properties, such as electrical conductivity, density, refractive index, surface tension and particle size of the selected microemulsion formulations have been determined at 298 K. After that, the solubility of celecoxib in the selected formulations was determined and compared with other reported microemulsion formulations. Interesting results from this section indicated that the solubility of celecoxib significantly increased compared to pure water and the previous proposed formulations. The results of this study can be used to provide suitable formulations based on the biocompatible microemulsions for celecoxib in pharmaceutical industry.
期刊介绍:
Colloid Journal (Kolloidnyi Zhurnal) is the only journal in Russia that publishes the results of research in the area of chemical science dealing with the disperse state of matter and surface phenomena in disperse systems. The journal covers experimental and theoretical works on a great variety of colloid and surface phenomena: the structure and properties of interfaces; adsorption phenomena and structure of adsorption layers of surfactants; capillary phenomena; wetting films; wetting and spreading; and detergency. The formation of colloid systems, their molecular-kinetic and optical properties, surface forces, interaction of colloidal particles, stabilization, and criteria of stability loss of different disperse systems (lyosols and aerosols, suspensions, emulsions, foams, and micellar systems) are also topics of the journal. Colloid Journal also includes the phenomena of electro- and diffusiophoresis, electro- and thermoosmosis, and capillary and reverse osmosis, i.e., phenomena dealing with the existence of diffusion layers of molecules and ions in the vicinity of the interface.
