On the Effects of UV Radiation on the Release Ability of Glucose Embedded in Hydroxypropyl Cellulose Films

Abstract: New drug delivery systems based on hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) and different percents of glucose were prepared and characterized to check their suitability as UV resistant patches. The spectral absorption properties of the HPC and HPC-glucose blends before and after UV irradiation were analyzed. The surface polarity and hydrophilicity were correlated with the morphology of the films and analyzed with respect to the UV exposure time and the embedded amount of glucose. The effects of UV radiation on in vitro e… Show more

“…In [ 70 ], novel drug delivery systems based on HPC and varying percentages of glucose were developed and characterized to assess their suitability as patches. The primary objective of the study was to investigate and minimize changes that may occur when HPC is used as a patch or bandage on skin exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light.…”

“…Polymers with well‐defined optical properties have found use in many applications, where they can be utilized as lenses, 1 alignment layers for nematics, 2 encapsulant for diodes, 3 amphiphilic films for humidity sensors, 4 radiation filters for art piece protection 5 and patches for drug release 6,7 . The benefits introduced by transparent polymers for manufacturing optical elements are including considerable weight diminishment, good flexibility, shaping under variable forms and low costs for mass‐production 8 .…”
