ASSEMBLY OF PHARMACEUTICAL MICROPARTICLES VIA SPRAY DRYING
Pharmaceutical microparticles require stringent control over their characteristics to realize their optimal therapeutic performance.Spray drying represents an elegant onestep route for the production of pharmaceutical microparticles,although a typical feature of conventional spray-dried products is the significant variation in particle properties.Hereby,the synthesis of pharmaceutical microparticles with homogeneous characteristics is possible with a micro-fluidic jet spray drying technique.This progress facilitates the methodical study on the direct relationship among formulation,production,physicochemical properties,and functionalities of these pharmaceutical microparticles via the spray-drying route.Several examples on the design and assembly of microparticles with tailor-made properties and functionalities are presented,with specific emphasis on the control over particle size,shape,microstructures,and controlled release kinetics.The underlying particle formation mechanisms and design concepts presented here are not limited to pharmaceutical components but to other functional particles as well.
