Abstract
Despite the impressive characteristics of biological metal organic frameworks (bioMOFs) for their use as drug delivery systems (DDs), there are still some parameters related to their structural stability and processing routes that have decelerated their realistic application in this field. Both drawbacks are unraveled in this work for the microporous bioMOF CaSyr-1 by using supercritical CO2 (scCO2) to load the bioMOF with the anti-tubercular isoniazid (INH) drug, and functionalize its external surface with a hydrophobic protective layer of stearate (S). The hydrophobicized CaSyr-1(INH)/S vehicle is further coated with a neutral surfactant (PS60) to enhance the wettability of the system. In vitro tests, related to drug carrier biocompatibility and drug release in body simulated fluids, are performed to demonstrate potential prospective of the designed DDs in pharmacy. The synthetized product displayed total biocompatibility even at high concentrations, and the particle size and dissolution rate showed to be adequate for pulmonary administration.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Supercritical Fluids is an international journal devoted to the fundamental and applied aspects of supercritical fluids and processes. Its aim is to provide a focused platform for academic and industrial researchers to report their findings and to have ready access to the advances in this rapidly growing field. Its coverage is multidisciplinary and includes both basic and applied topics.
Thermodynamics and phase equilibria, reaction kinetics and rate processes, thermal and transport properties, and all topics related to processing such as separations (extraction, fractionation, purification, chromatography) nucleation and impregnation are within the scope. Accounts of specific engineering applications such as those encountered in food, fuel, natural products, minerals, pharmaceuticals and polymer industries are included. Topics related to high pressure equipment design, analytical techniques, sensors, and process control methodologies are also within the scope of the journal.
