“…There is evidence in the literature that both polysaccharides, namely calcium alginate and chitosan, are degraded by bacteria in the colon (1,5,(8)(9)(10)(11). The test was developed in phosphate buffer at pH 7.5, simulating the colonic pH of the medium, in the absence and presence of 9.9×10 −2 U/mL β-glucosidase enzymes.…”

“…Chitosan-alginate drug delivery systems have been described for site-specific drug delivery in the colon (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) due to the fact that polysaccharides, calcium alginate, and chitosan are degraded by bacteria in the colon (1,5,(8)(9)(10)(11). It has been shown that the use of bacteria as a trigger mechanism for colonic drug release shows improved specificity over a pH-responsive approach.…”

“…1 A number of analytical methods has been developed for the analysis of mesalamine in pharmaceutical dosage forms and biological matrices. These methods include voltammetry, 2-4 spectrophotometry, 5,6 spectrofluorometry, 7,8 coulometery, 9 and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with UV, [10][11][12] fluorescence, 13,14 mass spectrometry (MS), 15, 16 and electrochemical (EC) 17 detections.…”

“…Mesalazine acts topically on the colonic mucosa but when orally administered, it is extensively and rapidly absorbed in the small intestine, leading to little localization of mesalazine in the colon and hence, low efficiency with significant systemic side effects (2). Consequently, three methods have been commonly used for targeting of mesalazine to the colon: a pro-drug concept, enteric coating, and/or prolonged release of the drug through semipermeable membrane (3).…”
