| Abstract | To elucidate the drug release mechanisms from pellets coated with pH-sensitive polymer blends.Verapamil hydrochloride-loaded beads were coated with various blends of a water-insoluble and an enteric polymer, ethylcellulose:Eudragit L and Eudragit NE:Eudragit L, respectively. Both experimental and theoretical techniques were used to characterize the systems before and upon exposure to 0.1 M HCl and phosphate buffer (pH 7.4).Using analytical solutions of Fick’s second law of diffusion, optical and scanning electron microscopy, and mechanical and gravimetric analysis, new insight into the underlying drug release mechanisms could be gained. More importantly, the latter can be effectively altered by varying the type of polymer blend and blend ratio. For example, at low pH drug release is primarily controlled by diffusion through the intact film coatings in Eudragit NE:Eudragit L blends, whereas crack formation is of major importance in ethylcellulose:Eudragit L-coated systems. At high pH, the (partial) leaching of the enteric polymer out of the coatings plays an important role. In all cases, the observed drug release profiles could be explained based on the occurring mass transport processes.The obtained new knowledge can be used to effectively adjust desired drug release mechanisms and, thus, release patterns. |

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.
