This document discusses solubility and techniques to improve the solubility of poorly soluble drugs, including micellar solubilization and hydrotropic solubilization. Micellar solubilization uses surfactants above their critical micelle concentration to form micelles that can encapsulate drugs and improve their solubility. Hydrotropic solubilization uses hydrotropic agents, which are ionic organic salts, to increase drug solubility without forming micelles. Mixed hydrotropic solubilization and using hydrotropes in combination can further increase drug solubility synergistically while reducing toxicity. These solubility enhancement techniques aim to improve drug bioavailability.
This document defines solubility and describes techniques to improve it, including micellar solubilization and hydrotropy. It states that solubility is the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent and can be defined quantitatively or qualitatively. Surfactants can form micelles above a critical concentration that solubilize drugs in their cores or palisade layers. Hydrotropes are ionic salts that increase solubility through weak interactions between the solute and hydrotrope anion in solution. Common poorly soluble drugs that use these techniques include anti-diabetic medications.

Detergents contain various active ingredients like surfactants, builders, solvents, and enzymes that help remove dirt from surfaces. Surfactants are the primary cleaning agents that use their hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties to break the bond between dirt and surfaces and suspend dirt particles in the cleaning solution. Builders help reduce water hardness by binding with metal ions and protect surfactants' cleaning ability. Solvents aid in dissolving oils and greases that water cannot remove on its own. A variety of ingredients work together synergistically to achieve optimal cleaning.
This document discusses detergents, including their composition, properties, and methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis. Detergents are surfactants that lower the surface tension of water, allowing them to interact with oils and grease. They contain both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions. Common methods to analyze detergents qualitatively include using colored reagents and paper chromatography. Quantitative analysis involves colorimetric determination using reagents like methylene blue or bromophenol blue. Detergents have advantages like stronger cleansing ability and solubility in acidic water but also disadvantages like reduced biodegradability and potential harm to aquatic life.
The document summarizes a seminar presentation on excipients. It discusses direct compression as a tablet manufacturing method and various direct compression fillers that improve flow and compressibility.

Excipient standardization through significant change guidance and preclinical toxicity testing is outlined to verify appropriate usage and establish standards for new excipients.
The document discusses soaps, detergents, and their differences. It aims to develop students' interest in science through demonstrations and activities about soap and detergent chemistry. Soaps are metal salts of fatty acids made through saponification of oils and fats, but do not work well in hard water. Detergents are synthetic surfactants made from petrochemicals that lower water surface tension and clean effectively even in hard water due to soluble salt formation. While both act via micelle formation, detergents are preferable due to better cleaning power and solubility, though some are non-biodegradable.
Surfactants lower the surface tension of liquids and the interfacial tension between two liquids. They are amphipathic molecules with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions. Surfactants are classified as anionic, cationic, non-ionic, or amphoteric based on the nature of their hydrophilic group. Anionic surfactants have a negatively charged hydrophilic group, while cationic have a positively charged group. Non-ionic surfactants have uncharged polar groups like ethylene oxide. Amphoteric surfactants can form both positive and negative surface-active ions. Surfactants are commonly used as emulsifying, foaming, cleansing, and wetting agents in cosmetics

properties in dilute solutions. These substances are usually
alkylbenzenesulfonates, a family of compounds that are similar to soap but are
more soluble in hard water (as the polar sulfonate(of detergents) is less likely than
the polar carboxyl (of soap) to bind to calcium and other ions found in hard
water). The detergents of today have few disadvantages like:
Detergents are non biodegradable.
Soil pollution and water pollution can be caused by soil pollution.
Entry of non biodegradable substances into the food cycle and increase in
the concentration can result in bio magnification.
Some detergents also contain inorganic phosphates which are dangerous to
the environment. They cause conditions like eutrophication.
In an attempt to solve this problem, the use of soapnuts as a natural bio-
degradable source of surfactants has come into existence. Soapnuts are
major source of a natural surfactant called saponin. It is a non-ionic
surfactant and a mild detergent which goes easy on the skin and the fabric.
In order to understand more about surfactants and their CMC value
determination, surfactants like SDS and Tween-80 and their micellar
characteristics have been studied. The critical micelle concentration of
Sodium dodecyl sulphate, polysorbate-80 and sapindus saponin have been
determined by plotting graphs between concentration of the solutions
against pH and conductivity. Sapindus Saponin was extracted from
commercially purchased soapnuts using method given by Rao et al.the
saponin hence obtained was used for further studies on their CMC. The raw
pericarp of the soapnuts were soaked in water and the pH and conductivity
3. of the water was recorded and a time against ph and conductivity plot was
obtained to study the characteristics of the saponin released during the
process over time.
WHAT ARE SURFACTANTS?
Surfactants are compoundswhich lower the surface tension between two
liquidsor between a liquidand a solid. Surfactants may act as detergents,
wetting agents, emulsifiers and dispersants. Surfactants are usually
organic compoundsthat are amphiphilic.They containboth hydrophobic
(water insoluble)and hydrophilicgroups (water soluble). These are the
tailsand headsthat form the surfactant structure. Surfactants will diffuse
in water and adsorb at interfaces between airand water or oil and water.
Most commonly, surfactants are classified according to polarhead group.
A non-ionicsurfactant has no charge groups in its head. The head of an
ionic surfactant carries a net charge. If the charge is negative, the
surfactant is more specificallycalled anionic;if the charge is positive, it is
4. called cationic.If a surfactant containsa head with two oppositely
charged groups, it is termed zwitter-ionic.
We distinguishbetween non-ionicsurfactants and ionic surfactants.
The ionic groups are much more hydrophilicthanthe non-ionicpolar
groups. The nonionicsurfactants are dissolvedas electroneutral
molecules, e.g. higher fatty alcoholsor cholesterol which have polar
hydroxyl groups. Ionic surfactants dissociate in aqueoussolutionsinto
pairs of 2 cationsand anions, but usually only one kind of these ionsare
surface active, and ions with the opposite charge are called counterions.
Based on the charge and the nature of the ion which generates surface
activity, we can divide the ionic surfactants into following classes:
1. anion-active(anionic)surfactants - e.g. sodium or potassium salts of
higher fatty acids (soaps), salts like sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium
tetradecyl sulfate etc.
2. cation-active(cationic) surfactants - e.g. quaternary ammonium salts –
hexadecylpyridiniumbromide, carb ethopendeciniumbromide
(Septonex) etc.
3. ampholyticsurfactants – e.g. long-alkyl aminoacids, with pH
dependentcharges.
5. POLYSORBATE – 80(C32H60O10)
Polysorbate 80 is a non-ionic surfactant commonly used in the food
industry and cosmetics industry. It is an amber coloured, viscous and
water-soluble liquid.This surfactant provides formulating benefits in a
number of home care applicationsas well. Polysorbates or tweens are
hydrophilicin nature and or soluble or dispersible in water and dilute
solutionsof electrolytes. The solubilityof Tweens in acqueoussolutions
increases with the degree of ethoxylation.
Polysorbate- 80 is PEG-20 sorbitan monoleate. It is solublein water,
partiallysoluble in repressed oil and methyl oleate. It is insolublein
mineral oil, kerosene and Butyl stearate.
6. SDS – Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS or NaDS), sodium laurilsulfateor sodium
lauryl sulfate (SLS) is an organic compound with the formula
CH3(CH2)11OSO3Na. It is an anionicsurfactant used in many cleaningand
hygiene products. The salt is of an organosulfate consisting of a 12-
carbon tail attached to a sulfate group, giving the material
the amphiphilicproperties required of a detergent. Derived from
inexpensive coconut and palm oils, it is a common component of many
domestic cleaning products. Sodium laurylsulfate is probably the most
researched anionicsurfactant compound. Like all detergent surfactants,
sodium lauryl sulfate removes oilsfrom the skin, and can cause skin and
eye irritation. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) in pure water at
25 °C is 8.2 mM, and the aggregation number at this concentrationis
usuallyconsidered to be about 62. The micelle ionizationfraction (α) is
around 0.3 (or 30%).
7. SOAP NUTS AND SAPONIN:
Saponinsare a class of large number of saponaceoussubstances
produced by plants. Examples of plants, which have saponin,are soapnut,
soybean, Quillaja bark and Fagonia indica.Soapnutsare obtainedfrom
the trees of Sapindusmukorossi and Sapindusemarginatus, found in
India, Pakistan and other tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world.
The outer pericarp of soapnutscontains6–10 wt% of saponindepending
on the weight of the fruit. The outer pericarp of soapnutshas been
traditionallyused in India for fabric washing, bathing and in folk medicine
due to the formation of lather or foam in water. The saponin used in the
experiment has been extracted from soapnutsand are calledsapindus
saponin.
CRITICAL MICELLE CONCENTRATION:
This is the concentrationwhere surfactant will work as a micelle. Because
surfactants are absorbed mainlyon the surface of the solution, creating a
thin monolayer, they are called surface active substances.When they are
dissolved, after they reach a certain value of concentration, molecules or
ions of surfactants begin to associate and to organize themselves into
more complexunits, also called micelles. The characteristic concentration
value, where the association process begins, is calledthe critical micelle
concentration and is labeledwith abbreviation CMC.
The CMC is one of the most useful physicochemical characteristics of
many biologicallyactive substances and drugs. From the chemical point
of view, surfactants are mostly low-molecularcompounds, so when
dissolved, they form true solutionsin concentrationranges below the
CMC. Micelles aggregates are formed from larger number of simple
molecules or ionsof surfactants, so the resulting size of such structures is
in the colloidal range.
9. EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES:
Determination of CMC of SDS, Tween- 80:
Tween 80 is a non-ionicsurfactant whose CMC is 0.012mM. Based on this
50ml solutionsof different concentrations aroundthat range of tween-80
were prepared. Following which, the pH of each concentration was
measured using a pH meter and tabulated.For each solution,the
conductivitywas also measured and tabulated.
The same procedure was carried out for SDS (Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate),
whose CMC is 8mM. Accordingly, 50ml solutionsof different
concentrationswere prepared. Followingwhich, the pH and conductivity
of each concentrationwere measured and tabulated.
Thus, CMC was determined by studying the variationof pH and
conductivitywith change in concentrationof the surfactant.
Studying the properties of saponin extracted from pericarp as a
function of time
Soap Nuts consist of 56.2 % pericarp and 43.8% seed. The outer pericarp
of the soapnuts were separated from the seeds. 100g of the pericarp was
measured and then taken in a beaker. To this 300g of water was added.
The beakerwas sealed and kept aside to rest. 20mL samples were
periodicallydrawn and their pH and conductivitywas measured at that
point of time. The values were tabulatedand a graph of pH/conductivity
vs. time was plotted to study its variationwith time.
10. Extraction of Sapindus Saponin precipitate from Soap Nuts
Saponinwas extracted from soapnut applyingthe method detailedby
Rao et al. Soapnutswere purchased from a local shop. The outer pericarp
of the fruits were separated from the seeds and weighed. (Fig. A &B)
Then the pericarp was dried at 400
C for 4 daysin a hot air oven. It was
ground to a fine powder (Fig. C)and the water-soluble matter was
extracted. Thissolution was centrifuged for 1 hour to separate water-
insolublematter. The extract was then treated with ammonium sulphate
to precipitate the saponin.The saponinthat separated on the top was
skimmed off and dried at 400
C. (Fig. D&E) [3]

Determination of CMC of Saponin:
From the extraction process of saponin from the dried pericarp, 0.577g of
saponin was obtained as precipitate. From this different weights of the precipitate
was measured and dissolved in 50g of water to prepare solutions of different
concentrations (ranging from 0.02% to 0.12% in weight percent). After which pH
and conductivity of each solution was measured and tabulated. A graph of pH vs.
concentration and conductivity vs. concentration was plotted to determine the
CMC value of saponin. [9]
RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS:
From the pH metry and conductivityexperiments on the different
concentrationsolutions, pH vs concentrationand conductivityvs
concentrationwere plotted. By the literature followed, CMC was
identifiedto the point in the graph where is there is a change in slope.
The CMCs obtainedfrom the experiments closely fell within the range
specified by the literature.
14. After studying the variation of pH and conductivity with
concentration, the CMC of Tween 80 was found to be around
0.012mM.
The Literature states that the CMC of Tween 80 is found to be within
the range of 0.012-0.016 mM [1] [2]
