19
Q

What happend if the solubility of the API is low

A

it will lead to phase separtaion, due to the different tg

20
Q

When the ASD kinetic stable

A

When it is stored below its tg

21
Q

What happend if the drug load is higher than the solubility line

A

is will be thermodynamic stable, reducing the solubility

22
Q

what happend if the drug load is high

A

it could lead to kinetic stability, but is shouldn’t go above the mix tg , which will lead to the thermodynamic instable state

23
Q

what does Spring means?

A

Amorphous API have a high energy state, which leads to a high apparent solubility. Without a stabilizing agent, precipitation will occur

24
Q

Describe the word parachut in respects of the ADS

A

Due to adding of the Polymers as a stabilizing agent, there will be an temporary inhibition of precipitation

25
Q

What’s the different between the apparent solubility and the true solubility

A

the treu solubility is in the thermody.equilibrium to most stable solid form, whereby the apparent solubility is the unstable form

26
Q

Which parameters are influnces by the Polymer excipients

A

API solubility, degree of supersaturation, viscosity, molecular mobility, nucleation, configurational entropy and free energy of ASD

27
Q

how does the polymer excipient influnces the parameters of the ASD?

A

API solubility (increase), degree of supersaturation (Decrease), viscosity (increase), molecular mobility (Decrease), nucleation (decrease), configurational entropy (increase )and free energy of ASD (decrease)

28
Q

What are the effect of the ADS parachut interactions?

A

Higher activation energy for nucleation

slow crystal growth due to adsorption on crytal surface

29
Q

API with high tg

A

they are good so solubilized

30
Q

Name 4 effects on physical stability of ASD

A

Glass transition temperature of amorphose drugs and polymers
drug-polymer miscibility
solid solubility of drugs in the polymers
molecular weight of drugs

31
Q

What are the preparation process, ASD?

A

Different thermal histories and mechanical stresse.

Using different degrees of drug-polymer mixing and drug mobility in ASD

32
Q

Production of ASDs

A

Melting and dyring processes

33
Q

what affects the stability of the ASD exstrusion

A

the resistence time, the high temperature

34
Q

What is the disadvantages of the spray drying ASD?

A

difficult to fine sovent for both API and polymer

Q

characterization Methods for Homogenity

A

FTIR, NMR

37
Q

characterization Methods for Interactions

A

FTIR

38
Q

Describe how the differential scanning calorimetry works (phases)

A

Power compensating DSC, Heat flux DSC Measurment

39
Q

Power compensating DSC

A

Recording of differential power signal, which is a function of actual sample temperature

40
Q

Heat flux DSC

A

Temperature differrents between the sample and reference and it is plotted gainst time
Integration of differences
Transfer into heat flux

41
Q

Measurement in the DSC

A

Sample filled up, reference and sample are heated or colled–> temperature diagram

42
Q

x-ray powder diffraction different between crystalline and amorphous state

A

Crystalline state: Angle dependent high x-ray intensities detected
Amorphous state: no Bragg Peaks detected

43
Q

FTIR-spectroscopy used for?

A

44
Q

which other method can be used to check Crystallinity

A
