| Abstract | Acrylic acid (AA)–methyl methacrylate (MMA) based copolymers, in different molar ratios (3:7, 4:6, 5:5, 6:4, and 7:3) were synthesized using tetrahydrofuran as solvent and AIBN as free radical initiator. Increase in acrylic acid concentration promoted pH-dependent swelling of copolymer and copolymer AA:MMA (3:7) was selected due to minimum swelling. ATR/FTIR and $^{1}$H NMR spectra of the copolymer showed absence of vinyl bond/protons present in the monomers suggesting successful polymerization. The copolymer was hemocompatible. Flurbiprofen sodium microspheres made with the copolymer, by oil/oil solvent evaporation, were spherical, anionic (zeta potential −59.0 mV) and contained 4.53% drug. ATR spectrum of microspheres showed peaks for aromatic C=C stretching and substituted benzene ring, indicating entrapment of flurbiprofen. XRD analysis revealed crystalline structure of flurbiprofen while copolymer and microspheres were amorphous. DSC thermograms showed a sharp melting endotherm of flurbiprofen sodium at 129.26°C against broad endotherms of copolymer and microspheres having peaks at 82.24 and 86.59°C, respectively. The thermogram of microspheres did not show the melting peak of flurbiprofen. The microspheres exhibited no drug release at pH <6.8 and released 83.4 and 99% drug at pH 6.8 and 7.4 in 3 h. The microspheres did not adhere on gastric mucosa at pH 1.2 but showed mucoadhesion time of 28 min on intestinal mucosa at pH 6.8. Thus, the microspheres on oral administration, would release the drug in distal ileum, suggesting the potential of the hemocompatible copolymer for enteric coating for prolonged drug release. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
