研究喷雾干燥过程条件对三七总皂苷-丹参酮ⅡA复合粒子理化性质及肺部吸入性能的影响。根据复合粒子中这两类成分的理化性质,本研究选择了3个溶剂系统:无水乙醇、无水乙醇-丙酮体积比分别为9:1和4:1;3个进口温度:110℃、120℃、130℃。在不同的溶剂系统及进口温度条件下制备了7种复合粒子,利用扫描电镜(SEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)、动态水蒸气吸附仪(DVS)、原子力显微镜(AFM)和高效液相色谱(HPLC)对复合粒子进行表征,并利用新一代雾粒分布仪(NGI)对复合干粉粒子的空气动力学行为进行评估。结果表明,在采用混合溶剂系统无水乙醇-丙酮体积比9:1、进口温度110℃条件下,所得复合粒子表面粗糙,粒子外层分布有较多的丹参酮IIA微晶颗粒,此种复合粒子肺部可吸入性较好,有效细粉分布比例(VVV值)接近60%。实验证明,采用共喷雾干燥的方法,通过调节喷雾干燥过程条件,可改变丹参酮IIA在粒子外层的分布量及存在形式,从而提高药物复合粒子的肺部可吸入性。
This study is to report the influence of conditions in spray drying process on physical and chemical properties and lung inhaling performance of Panax notoginseng Saponins - Tanshinone II A composite particles. According to the physical and chemical properties of the two types of components within the composite particles, three solvent systems were selected including ethanol, ethanol : acetone (9 : 1, v/v) and ethanol : acetone (4 : 1, v/v), and three inlet temperature: 110 ℃, 120 ℃, 130 ℃ to prepare seven different composite particle samples; each sample was characterized using laser diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic vapour sorption (DVS) and atomic force microscope (AFM), and their aerodynamic behavior was evaluated by a Next Generation Impactor (NGI). The results indicate that under the conditions of using the mixed solvent system of ethanol - acetone volume ratio of 9 : l, and the inlet temperature of 110 ~C, the resulting composite particles showed rough surface, with more tanshinone II A distributing in the outer layer, such composite particles have the best lung inhaling performance and the fine particle fraction (FPF) close to 60%. Finally it is concluded thatby adjusting the conditions in co-spray drying process, the distribution amount and existence form of tanshinone II A in the outer layer of the particles can be changed so that to enhance lung inhaling performance of the drug composite particles.
