notes Flashcards
ensure all components will disolve
mixing
improve odor and taste of the solution
mixing and storage
examples of Dosage Forms that contain volatile oil
Aromatic water and spirits
Solution transfer in one Filter medium
parallel
transfer 2 or more flter medium
- ensure to prevent unremoved particles
Series
Sterile
- 0.22 mcm
« even smallest bacteria cannot be filtered
Membrane Filter
QC test to determine the membrane filter
Bubble point test
a coliodal system in which the dispersed particies are solid
suspensoid
filling used For viscous
gravimetric filling
filling to maintain the level
constant level filling
make sure suspension are suspended
In
suspensoid
viscosity enhancer
suspending agent
magnesium Aluminum silicate
veegum
thixotropic agent
- not settle solid drug
bentonite magma
displace air From crevices of hydrophobic solids to allow penetration of water
wetting agents
sucrose in syrup coat to dispersed
syrup
form flocculates
- prevent caking formation
flocculating agents
made of stainless steel and jackered
mixing tanks
most inert grade stainless steel
SS 316
mixer with various impellers
mechanical stirrer
For dispersion of suspensions
colloid mill
-compresses w. high pressure emulsification
- ensure uniForm
homogenizer
uses Ultrasonic energy,
- has limited output.
ultrasonifier
added to maintain required pH
buffers
especially in suspension and emusion
- to enhance the taste in surups
viscosity enhancer
to prevent water loss in vanishing cream
humectants
prevent degradation of drugs
stability enhancers
prevent microbial growth
preservatives
-alkyl oF p-hydroxybenzoic acid
- make compound enter the cell membrane In fungi
- cause lysis (not build)
Parabens
-cause protein denaturation
benzyl alcohol
Molds
methyl paraben
yeast and bacteria
propyl paraben
studies show that it can cause
endocrine disruptors (breast cancers)
long chain paraben (butyl paraben)
prevent oxidation
- most common cause of degration oF drugs
antioxidants
react with free radicals
true antioxidant
BHT
butylated hydroxy toluene
BHA
butylated hydroxy anisole
they oxidized instead of component
OF skIn
reducing agents
react w heavy metals
- react w neavy metal, same w free radicals, and heavy metal cause oxidation)
to prevent catalyst
antioxidant (synergist)
Used of ointment roller mill to mix heat-sensitive ointment bases
- to ensure smooth texture
- to incorporate the API
- not used for heat
- used for lanolin
incorporation method
- heat involved
- use of steam-jacketed kettles to melt anhydrous ointment bases and cooling gradually until congealed
- beeswax
fusion method
the internal force in a liquid drop (promote dissociation of the molecule of the → substance / resisting distortion of the drop into a less Spherical form
surface tension theory
