Indo-Global Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2011, Vol 1., Issue 3: Page No. 234-242to development of microorganism’s resistance. In most cases, due complexity of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters,in vivo studies are required to establish the optimal dosage form for a specific drug. For a certain drug, interplay of itspharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters will determine the effectiveness and benefits of the CR-GRDF compared to theother dosage forms. In the next chapters we discuss the development and evaluation of CR-GRDF for several drugs that wereperformed in our laboratory.EVALUATION PARAMETERS1. Water uptake study. 6The swelling of the polymers can be measured by their ability to absorb water and swell. The swelling property of the formulation canbe determined by various techniques. The water uptake study can be done by using USP dissolution apparatus II. Distilled water canbe used as medium, 900 ml rotated at 50 rpm. The temperature of medium should be maintained at 37±0.5 ◦C throughout the study.After a selected time intervals, the tablets should be withdrawn, blotted to remove excess water and weighed. Swelling characteristicscan be expressed in terms of water uptake (WU) asWU (%) = weight of the swollen tablet − initial weight of the tabletInitial weight of the tablet × 1002. XRay/ gamma scintigraphy. 2X‐Ray/Gamma Scintigraphy is a very popular evaluation parameter for swelling dosage form nowadays. It helps to locate dosage formin the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), by which one can predict and correlate the gastric emptying time and the passage of dosage form inthe GIT. Here the inclusion of a radio‐opaque material into a solid dosage form enables it to be visualized by X‐rays. Similarly, theinclusion of a γ‐emitting radionuclide in a formulation allows indirect external observation using a γ‐camera or scintiscanner. In caseof γ‐scintigraphy, the γ‐rays emitted by the radionuclide are focused on a camera, which helps to monitor the location of the dosageform in the GIT.241
