Resumen
LLERA-ROJAS, Viridiana Gisela et al. Comparative study of the release profiles of ibuprofen from polymeric nanocapsules and nanospheres. J. Mex. Chem. Soc [online]. 2019, vol.63, n.2, pp.61-70. Epub 20-Abr-2020. ISSN 1870-249X. https://doi.org/10.29356/jmcs.v63i2.943.
Different carriers were obtained employing the emulsification-diffusion method in order to compare the release profile of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug from nanocapsules and nanospheres elaborated with Eudragit®. All the batches presented a submicronic particle size, good stability (ζ >30 mV) and the density test confirmed the nanocapsule and nanosphere structure. Evaluation of the release kinetics of ibuprofen using the Korsmeyer-Peppas model evidenced values for the “n” coefficient of 0.799 and 0.816 for nanocapsules and nanospheres, respectively. This indicates that both systems adhere an anomalous diffusion release mechanism that combines drug diffusion and erosion of the polymer.
