DISSOLUTION Flashcards
measures the RATE OF RELEASE of active pharmaceutical ingredients into solution from the final pharmaceutical product
DISSOLUTION test
APPARATUS
for HARD and SOFT gelatin capsules
Rotating basket assembly (Apparatus I)
process by which a chemical or drug becomes DISSOLVED in a solvent
DISSOLUTION
the amount of active ingredient in a solid-dosage form DISSOLVED in unit time under standardized conditions of liquid/solid interface, temperature and media compostion
DISSOLUTION RATE
FACTORS affecting dissolution rate
- aqueous medium
- temperature of the medium
- agitation rate
IMPORTANCE OF DISSOLUTION TEST
QUALITY CONTROL
- batch homogeneity
- batch to batch conformity
- stability
- therapeutically optimal dosage forms
IMPORTANCE OF DISSOLUTION TEST
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
- drug release behavior of pre-formulations
- in bitro simulation of the GI passage
- IVIVC (in vitro in vivo correlation)
FACTORS affecting the TEST RELIABILITY
- proper alignment of the dissolution apparatus
- proper conditions during dissolution test
- proper validation of analytical method
CONDITIONS for DISSOLUTION TEST
