3. SOLUBILITY
1-3
The term solubility is defined as maximum amount of solute that can be
dissolved in a given amount of solvent.
Solubility depends on:
The physical form of the solid
The nature and composition of solvent medium
Temperature and pressure of system
6/4/2016 3sagar kishor savale
4. Need of enhancing solubility
To enhance the solubility of poorly aqueous soluble drugs
poorly aqueous soluble drugs are administered at much higher doses than
actually desired, leading to associated toxicity problems
Enhancing bioavailability of poorly water soluble drug molecule

8. What do you mean by Micronization ?
6
Def : Micronization is a term used to describe size reduction where resulting
particle size is less than 10 microns. Micronization size reduction involves
acceleration of particles so that grinding occurs by particle-to-particle
impact or impact against solid surface.
Micronization of drugs is done by –
jet mill and rotor stator colloid mills that result in a wide particle size
range between 0.1–25 µm.
The micronization material had 99.9% of the particals samller than 10µm
diameter .

10. 1. Ball mill
8
Principle:-
The ball mill is very widely used machine for fine size reduction. The
size reduction is achieved by two mechanism.
1. Impact of balls when they fall over the material
2. Shearing: When the balls slide over each other and give a rubbing action.

11. 2.Hammer mill
Principle:-
Hammer mill based on the principle of impact.
i.e, When material is hit by an object moving at high speed or when the moving
particle strikes a stationary surface.

13. 4.Jet mill
Principle:-Fluid jet mill uses energy of fluid (high pressure air) to achieve ultra
fine grinding of pharmaceutical powders.

Rapid Expansion of Supercritical Solutions (RESS)
Supercritical Anti Solvent precipitation (SAS)
Supercritical fluids Assisted Atomization (SAA)
Particles generation from Gas Saturated Solutions (PGSS)
Supercritical Carbon dioxide Assisted Nebulization (CAN-
BD) with a Bubble Dryer.

15. What is Super Critical Fluid?
A fluid is compressed beyond its Pc and heated beyond its Tc.
Why we choose CO2:
nonflammable, nontoxic, Low dielectric constant, inexpensive, mild Tc.
Solubility
Non polar or light molecules easily dissolve in CO2.
Heavy molecules have a very poor solubility.

sagar kishor savale
Drug is saturated with supercritical CO2, and the sudden change in
the fluid pressure causes rapid precipitation.
Drug is saturated with supercritical CO2, and the sudden diffusion of
CO2 into a drug solution causes drug precipitation.
Solubilization of supercritical CO2 in a liquid solution containing the
drug, and on its subsequent atomization using a thin wall nozzle.
Drug saturated with supercritical CO2 is rapidly cooled by adiabatic
expansion of CO2, and the solid dispersion precipitates in the form of
microparticles.
Drug saturated with supercritical CO2 is rapidly expanded to
atmospheric pressure to generate aerosols of micro bubbles and micro
droplets. Then aerosol plume is dried and mixes with nitrogen or air
to produce fine powders.
