TAM Technique for Identifying API-Lipid Excipient Compatibility Issues Upstream in the Development Process
AAPS PharmSci 360 – Washington DC (USA) - Nov 2018
In this study the authors showed that Thermal Activity Monitoring is a useful technique to detect at early stage potential interaction between APi and excipients, using less time and resources than conventional techniques.
TAM technique is used routinely in Gattefossé North America Technical Center of Excellence to speed up formulation development.
Size characterization of lipid-based self-emulsifying pharmaceutical excipients during lipolysis using Taylor dispersion analysis with fluorescence detection
International Journal of Pharmaceutics, Volume 537, Issues 1–2, Pages 94–101 - Feb 2018
In this work, the lipolysis of Labrasol® and Gelucire® 44/14 , two lipid based self-emulsifying drug delivery systems, by pancreatic enzymes and under conditions mimicking the gastrointestinal tract is followed by Taylor dispersion analysis. Results show that, Labrasol® droplets decrease exponentially in size with lipolysis time, whereas Gelucire® 44/14 droplets increased sigmoïdally in size. Even after 120 min lipolysis, both systems maintain a solubilizing capacity of the hydrophobic marker.
