Mucoadhesion and mucosa-mimetic materials - a mini-review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Mucoadhesion describes an attractive interaction between dosage form and mucosal membrane. The evaluation of mucoadhesive excipients often requires the use of ex vivo mucosal tissues taken from laboratory animals. These can be difficult to source, highly

Eel skin as a model substrate for mucoadhesion studies

open access: yes, 1997
The inherent fragility and instability of mammalian excised mucosal tissues constitutes a serious problem in ex vivo mucoadhesion studies. The present investigation was undertaken to assess the validity of eel (Anguilla anguilla) skin as a model mucous ...

A Protocol for Preparing Mucoadhesive Emulsion Microgels and Assessing Their Mucoadhesion Properties In Vitro

open access: yesBIO-PROTOCOL
Intravesical instillation is an efficient therapeutic technique based on targeted administration of a drug directly into the lesion for the treatment of bladder diseases. This is an alternative to traditional systemic administration of drugs. However, this technique requires repeated procedures, which can lead to even greater inflammation and infection

Exploring the mucoadhesive behavior of sucrose acetate isobutyrate: a novel excipient for oral delivery of biopharmaceuticals

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2019
Oral drug delivery is an attractive noninvasive alternative to injectables. However, oral delivery of biopharmaceuticals is highly challenging due to low stability during transit in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), resulting in low systemic ...
