Diffusion of drugs from hydrogels and liposomes as drug carriers

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The mass transfer of model drugs Lidocaine hydrochloride and Dihydroquercetin from hydrogels (the usual carriers for topical drugs), and hydrogels containing liposomes, as novel drug vehicles, was studied. Diffusion experiments were performed using a Franz diffusion cell. Experimental data were used to calculate drug diffusion coefficients across membranes, and their effective diffusion coefficients from hydrogels and liposome containing hydrogels. For the first time the diffusion resistance of all… Show more

“…To define the effective diffusion coefficients of polyphenols from different particles the diffusion experiments were further analyzed. The effective diffusion coefficients were calculated using Fick's second law (Pjanovic et al, ): ln()CD0CR0CDCR=Deffitalicβt where C D and C R are concentrations of polyphenols in donor and receptor compartments, respectively, at time t , while CD00.25emand CR0 are concentrations in the compartments at time t = 0. The effective diffusion coefficient is D eff while geometrical constant is labeled as β and it is specific for diffusion cell and membrane used in the tests.…”
