Injectability of high concentrated suspensions using model microparticles.
Administration of high-concentrated suspension formulations (i.e., solid particles dispersed in a liquid vehicle) can be limited due to their greater propensity for needle occlusion. The physical interaction between the solid phase (i.e., particles), the vehicle (i.e., flow field), and injection devices could result in the formation of particle bridging or filtering, posing a major risk in dose delivery accuracy and injectability. Here, given the limited understanding on how clogging initiates in syringe and needle delivery systems, we report an experimental approach to fully characterize the transient injection behavior of suspensions. In particular, we first established a custom fluorescence tagging and imaging technique with integrated force sensor to enable visual observation of local particle concentrations and plunger force monitoring throughout injection. Then, we investigated the effects of key formulation properties and device parameters including particle concentration and morphology, carrier viscosity, injection rate, needle and syringe sizes, and tissue backpressure on the incidence of suspension particle jamming and needle clogging. We performed systematic benchmark studies demonstrating that increasing needle inner diameter (ID) and particle density considerably reduced clogging risk, while increasing vehicle viscosity, particle size, and tissue backpressure significantly increased clogging. The experimental framework presented is amenable to quantifying clogging risk in drug-loaded particle suspensions and provides a guideline to make informed decisions on the tradeoffs between creating particles for pharmaceutical impact and feasibility of injection delivery.
