Application of a novel symmetrical shape factor to gastroretentive matrices as a measure of swelling synchronization and its impact on drug release kinetics under standard and modified dissolution conditions
Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 06/30/09
Liu Q et al. - The symmetrical shape factor values were positively impacted. Consequently the drug release kinetics were more predictable and reproducible. The modified USP method resulted in a more synchronized axial and radial swelling with symmetrical shape factor values approaching unity. Data further indicated that the modified USP method provided for complete matrix hydration and swelling as the dosage form remained fully submerged, allowing for more reliable release mimicking the in-vivo conditions.
