FINAL 02 - Dispersed System Flashcards
Study of flow characteristics
Rheology
System that contains substance distributed and vehicle
Dispersed system
3 classification of dispersion (CFC)
Coarse dispersion, Fine dispersion, Colloids
Particles usually 10-50 um in size (Classifications of dispersion)
Coarse dispersion
Particle size is 0.5-10 um (Classifications of dispersion)
Fine dispersion
Particles are in colloidal range (1 nm-0.5 um) (Classifications of dispersion)
Colloids
A coarse dispersion of finely divided drug particles called suspensoid distributed uniformly throughout a vehicle

Antibacterial oral suspension
Agents that assist in the suspension of the dispersed phase
Suspending agents
Increase the viscosity of water by binding water molecules; examples include acacia, tragacanth, methylcellulose, and carboxymethylcellulose (Types of suspending agents)
Hydrophilic colloids
Silicates that are anionic in aqueous dispersion; exhibit thixotrophy; examples include bentonite, veegum, and kaolin (Types of suspending agents)
Clays
Semisolid preparation made up of small inorganic and large organic matter interpenetrated by liquid (Types of suspension)
Gels
Are a combination of mineral oils and heavy hydrocarbon waxes with a molecular weight of about 1300 (Types of suspension)
Jelene/Plastibase
Are gels in which the structural content matrix contains a high proportion of liquid, usually water (Types of suspension)
Jellies
Taking up a certain amount of liquid without increase in volume
Imbibition
Taking up of liquid by a gel with an increase in volume
Swelling
The dispersing medium is squeezed out in droplets and the gel shrinks
Syneresis
Reversible-gel-sol formation with no change in volume/temperature
Thixotrophy
Liquid is removed from a gel and only the framework remains
Xerogel
2 general classification of gels (IO)
Inorganic hydrogels, Organic gels
Has two phase system such as aluminum hydroxide gel and bentonite magma (Classifications of gels)
Inorganic hydrogels
Has a single phase system and include gelling agents such as carbomer and tragacanth (Classifications of gels)
Organic gels
Are gels that have ingredients that are dispersible as colloidals or soluble in water (Classifications of gels)
Hydrogels
Are gels that have hydrocarbons, animal and vegetable fats, soap base greases, and the hydrophilic organogels (Classifications of gels)
Organogels
Are liquid suspensions intended for external application (Types of suspensions)
Lotion
2 ways of preparing lotions (TC)
Trituration, Chemical reaction
Mortar used for unstainable substance
Porcelain mortar
Mortar used for stainable substance
Glass mortar
Are suspensions containing bigger particles as compared to gels and lotions (Types of suspensions)
Magmas/Milk
2 ways of preparing magmas (HC)
Hydration, Chemical reaction
An example of magma made by reacting bismuth subnitrate with nitric acid and ammonium carbonate with ammonium solution
Milk of bismuth
Are pressured dosage forms containing one or more active ingredients upon actuation emit a fine dispersion of liquid and/or solid materials in gaseous medium
Aerosols
4 factors which will render an aerosol effective (AVCP)
Amount of propellant, Valve assembly, Container, Particle size
