Understanding the role of low glass transition temperature excipients in the mitigation of amorphisation on mechanical processing
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Pharmacy & Pharma. Sciences. Discipline of Pharmacy, 2017)Commonly employed pharmaceutical processes such as milling, blending and compaction may unintentionally lead to the generation of amorphous regions or metastable polymorphic forms in crystalline active pharmaceutical ... -
Use of computational fluid dynamics to investigate the relationship between hydrodynamics and rates of dissolution
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2007)The hydrodynamics within the paddle (900 ml), basket (900 ml) and Levy beaker (350 ml and 550 ml) (Levy et al., 1965) dissolution apparatuses were simulated using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) package, Fluent™. ... -
Using in vitro and in silico approaches to investigate ibuprofen particulate and formulation dissolution behaviour under different hydrodynamic conditions.
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Pharmacy & Pharma. Sciences. Discipline of Pharmacy, 2024)This work investigated the effect of fluid velocity and medium viscosity on the dissolution of ibuprofen powder and ibuprofen immediate release tablets in vitro, in the paddle apparatus and the flow-through apparatus, and ... -
Warfarin therapy in the Republic of Ireland : the potential role of neural networks in optimising therapy
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2002)Anticoagulant therapy is used to reduce the embolic risk associated with many diseases e.g. atrial fibrillation, deep vein thrombosis and aortic valve replacement. The decision to anticoagulate a patient is made individually, ...
