Adhesion describes the attractive forces between a biological material and mucus or mucous membrane. 1. Mucous membranes adhere to epithelial surfaces such as the gastrointestinal tract (GI-tract), the vagina, the lung, the eye, etc. They are generally hydrophilic as they contain many hydrogen macromolecules due to the large amount of water (approximately 95%) within its composition. However, mucin also contains glycoproteins that enable the formation of a gel-like substance. 1. Understanding the hydrophilic bonding and adhesion mechanisms of mucus to biological material is of utmost importance in order to produce the most efficient applications. For example, in drug delivery systems, the mucus layer must be penetrated in order to effectively transport micro- or nanosized drug particles into the body. 2 Bioadhesion is the mechanism by which two biological materials are held together by interfacial forces.

Mucosal Drug Delivery Systems: Targeting Medication Through Mucous Membranes
Mucosal drug delivery systems (MDDS) offer a unique approach to medication administration by delivering drugs directly to mucosal membranes. These membranes line various body cavities, such as the mouth, nose, lungs, eyes, vagina, and gastrointestinal tract. By bypassing the traditional oral route and its associated challenges, MDDS can offer several advantages:
Benefits:
Rapid onset of action: Drugs quickly access the bloodstream through the thin mucosal membranes, leading to a faster therapeutic effect compared to oral medications.
Improved bioavailability: Avoiding first-pass metabolism in the liver can significantly increase the amount of drug available to the body.
Enhanced patient compliance: Non-invasive routes like nasal or buccal delivery can be more comfortable and convenient than injections or tablets.
Targeted delivery: Specific formulations can target diseases affecting specific mucosal membranes, reducing systemic exposure and potential side effects.
Potential for controlled release: Sustained release formulations can maintain therapeutic drug levels for longer periods.
Different types of MDDS:
Buccal: Films, tablets, or patches adhere to the inner cheek for local or systemic delivery.
Sublingual: Tablets placed under the tongue dissolve rapidly for systemic absorption.
Nasal: Sprays, drops, or gels deliver drugs directly to the nasal cavity for respiratory or systemic effects.
Ocular: Drops, inserts, or films provide sustained or targeted delivery to the eye.
Vaginal: Rings, creams, or tablets deliver medication locally or systemically through the vaginal mucosa.
Pulmonary: Inhaled aerosols or solutions deposit drugs in the lungs for respiratory conditions.
Rectal: Suppositories or enemas release medication locally or systemically through the rectal mucosa.
Challenges and considerations:
Mucosal barriers: Mucus and tight junctions within the membranes can limit drug penetration.
Formulation challenges: Designing formulations that adhere to mucosal membranes, release drugs effectively, and are stable can be complex.
Potential for irritation: Some formulations can irritate sensitive mucosal tissues.
Limited drug suitability: Not all drugs are suitable for MDDS due to factors like size, stability, and absorption properties.
Future of MDDS:
Advances in bio adhesive materials, drug targeting strategies, and controlled release technologies are expected to expand the capabilities and applications of MDDS. Personalized medicine approaches using tailored mucosal formulations hold promise for further optimizing treatment efficacy and patient comfort.

This document outlines the history of drug development and approval processes in the United States from 1820 to 1997. It describes key milestones and legislation that established regulations for new drug applications (NDAs). NDAs were first required in 1938 to show drug safety, and in 1962 were amended to require proof of efficacy. The FDA now reviews NDAs to ensure the benefits of new drugs outweigh the risks based on clinical trial data.
The EMEA (European Medicines Agency) is a decentralized body of the European Union headquartered in London. It was established in 1995 and coordinates the evaluation and supervision of medicines for human and veterinary use throughout the EU. It is composed of various committees including the CHMP (Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use) and CVMP (Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use) which are responsible for assessment and authorization of medicines. The EMEA ensures that medicines are evaluated based on quality, safety and efficacy with the goal of protecting public health.
This document discusses key considerations for dosage form design and formulation. It explains that pharmaceutical formulation involves selecting excipients to solubilize, thicken, stabilize, flavor, and otherwise modify drug substances for patient delivery. Proper dosage form design requires considering the physical and chemical properties of drug substances and ensuring compatibility with excipients. Preformulation studies characterize the drug's properties including solubility, dissolution rate, and stability. Understanding these properties helps determine the appropriate dosage form and formulation to provide stable, effective delivery of the active drug to patients.

This document discusses designing around patents from the perspectives of both patent holders and competitors. It notes that patent holders seek broad patent protection to maximize monopoly profits and minimize successful design around efforts, while competitors aim to create non-infringing alternative products without bearing the monopoly costs of the patent. The document outlines strategies for patent holders to draft claims to make designing around more difficult and for competitors to develop design around approaches in light of legal precedents like Festo v. Shoketsu, which impacted the doctrine of equivalents.
Clinical trials are conducted in phases to evaluate the safety and efficacy of new drugs. Phase 1 trials involve 10-20 healthy volunteers to determine toxicity and pharmacokinetics. Phase 2 trials involve 100-200 patients to identify effective doses and further evaluate safety. Phase 3 trials involve up to 1000 volunteers to study less common side effects, compare to standard treatments, and evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness. Phase 4 trials monitor drugs after approval in 5000-10,000 patients to identify rare or long-term issues.
Clinical trials progress through phases (preclinical, I-IV) to evaluate treatments safely in humans. Preclinical testing occurs in labs and animals. Phase I studies evaluate safety in 20-80 healthy volunteers. Phase II expands to 100-300 patient volunteers to assess efficacy. Phase III further tests efficacy in 1,000-3,000 patients. FDA approval requires compliance with Good Clinical Practice guidelines to protect subject rights and ensure credible data. Key elements include oversight by independent review boards, informed consent, qualified investigators and sponsors, adherence to protocols, and comprehensive record keeping.
Clinical research in India is growing rapidly due to several factors:
- India has a large population with a growing disease burden similar to developed countries. This provides opportunities for clinical trial recruitment.
- Regulatory reforms have made the approval process for clinical trials much faster, within 6-8 weeks for some applications.
- Costs for conducting clinical trials are around half of Western countries, providing significant cost savings for sponsors.
- There is an increasing pool of experienced investigators and staff familiar with Good Clinical Practice who can conduct trials to international standards.
- The pharmaceutical industry and contract research organizations see India as an important location for outsourcing various stages of drug development to take advantage of the opportunities.

6. Bioadhesion is used to describe the bonding or adhesion
between a synthetic or natural polymer and soft tissues
biological substrate such as epithelial cells, which
allows the polymer to adhere to the biological surface for
an extended period of time .
6
7. Concept
The drug can be incorporated into a cross linked
polymer device that would adhere to mucosal membrane in
the body .the drug can diffuse from device directly in the
tissue.
Adhesion ,anchoring of polymer device result in increase
residence time , bioavailability & site specificity.

7
9. Theories mucoadhesion
The phenomena of bioadhesion occurs by a complex
mechanism
There are seven theories have been proposed till date
The Theories include :-
(a) The electronic theory,
(b) The wetting theory,
(c) The adsorption theory.
(d) The diffusion theory,
(e) The mechanical theory
(f) The cohesive theory.
(g) Fracture theory.
9
10. The electronic theory
Proposes transfer of electrons amongst the
surfaces due to difference in their electrical structure
resulting in the formation of an electrical double layer
thereby giving rise to attractive forces.
The wetting theory
Postulates that if the contact angle of liquids
on the substrate surface is lower, then there is a greater
affinity for the liquid to the substrate surface. If two such
substrate surfaces are brought in contact with each other
in the presence of the liquid, the liquid may act as an
adhesive amongst the substrate surfaces.
10
11. The adsorption theory
After initial contact of the material adhere to
surface due to forces acting between the atoms in the two
surfaces later result in formation of bonds(primary &
secondary )due to the presence of intermolecular forces,
viz. hydrogen bonding and Van der Waal’s forces, for the
adhesive interaction amongst the substrate surfaces.
The diffusion theory
Assumes the diffusion of the polymer chains,
present on the substrate surfaces, across the adhesive
interface thereby forming a networked , semipermeable
structure. The extent depth to which the polymer chain
penetrate the mucus depend on diffusion coefficient &time of
contact .
11
12. The mechanical theory explains the diffusion of the liquid
adhesives into the micro-cracks and irregularities present on
the substrate surface thereby forming an interlocked structure
which gives rise to adhesion.
Surface roughness =d/h
The cohesive theory proposes that the phenomena of
bioadhesion are mainly due to the intermolecular
interactions amongst like-molecules.
Fracture theory :-
This theory attempts to relete the difficulty of separation of two
surfaces after adhesion .
Adhesion Strength = (E ԑ/L )1/2
E =Young’s modulus of elasticity
ԑ = Fracture energy
L = Critical crack length when two surfaces are
separated 12
13. Mechanisms of Bioadhesion
The mechanisms responsible in the formation of bioadhesive bonds are not fully
known, however most research has described bioadhesive bond formation as a
three step process.
Step 1 : Wetting and swelling of polymer
Step 2 : Interpenetration between the polymer chains and the
mucosal membrane
Step 3 : Formation of chemical bonds between the entangled
chains
Process of bioadhesion can be classified,
1) Chemical (electronic and adsorption theories)
2) Physical (wetting, Diffusion and cohesive theory) 13
14. Step 1
The wetting and swelling step occurs when the polymer
spreads over the surface of the biological substrate or
mucosal membrane in order to develop an intimate contact
with the substrate.
Bioadhesives are able to adhere to or bond with biological
tissues by the help of the surface tension and forces that
exist at the site of adsorption or contact.
Swelling of polymers occur because the components
within the polymers have an affinity for water.
The image below shows swelling of a polymer
14
15. Step 2
The surface of mucosal membranes are composed of high
molecular weight polymers known as glycoproteins.
In step 2 of the bioadhesive bond formation, the
bioadhesive polymer chains and the mucosal polymer
chains intermingle and entangle to form semi permeable
adhesive bonds. The strength of these bonds depends on
the degree of penetration between the two polymer groups.
In order to form strong adhesive bonds, one polymer group
must be soluble in the other and both polymer types must
be of similar chemical structure.
The interpenetration of polymer chains

polymer chains
Mucus
polymer chains
15
16. Step 3
This step involves the formation of weak chemical bonds
between the entangled polymer chains.
The types of bonding formed between the chains include
primary bonds such as covalent bonds and weaker
secondary interactions such as van der Waals Interactions
and hydrogen bonds.
Both primary and secondary bonds are exploited in the
manufacture of bioadhesive formulations in which strong
adhesions between polymers are formed.

18. Drug Absorption
Drug absorption is the process by which a drug leaves its site of administration
and enters the general circulation
Passive diffusion Facilitated passive diffusion
Active transport Pinocytosis
.
18
19. In Bioadhesive Drug Delivery System the drug molecules
Is either dispersed in matrix of polymer or matrix type is
coated with bio(muco)adhesive polymer.
Bio(muco)adhesive Polymer
A bioadhesive polymer is a synthetic or natural
polymer which binds to biological substrates such as
mucosal membranes.
Sometimes referred to as biological ‘glues’
19
20. Classification of Bio(Muco)adhesive polymers
A )Based on Specificity :-
1) The specific bioadhesive polymers
Are the ability to adhere to specific chemical structures
within the biological molecules
e.g. lectins, fimbrin
2) The nonspecific bioadhesive polymers
Are the ability to bind with both the cell surfaces and the
mucosal layer.
e.g.polyacrylic acid, cyanoacrylates
20
23. Molecular properties of mucoadhesive :-
1. Strong hydrogen bonding groups (-OH, -COOH).
2. Strong anionic charges.(cellulose derivatives) but
some cationic (e.g., Chitosan)
3. Sufficient flexibility to penetrate the mucus network or
tissue crevices.
4. Surface tension characteristics suitable for wetting
mucus/ mucosal tissue surface.
5. High molecular weight.
23
24. Characteristics of Bioadhesive polymers
1)Flexibility- important because it controls the extent of the
interpenetration between the polymers and mucosal/epithelial
surfaces.
2)Hydrophilicity – Polymers that are hydrophilic in nature are
able to form strong adhesive bonds with mucosal membranes
because the mucus layer contains large amounts of water.
3)Hydrogen bonding – Hydrogen bonding between the
entangled polymer chains forms strong adhesive bonds,
therefore the presence of hydrogen bond – forming groups such
as OH and COOH groups are vital in large quantities.
4)High molecular weight – Polymers with a high molecular
weight are desirable because they provide more bonding sites.
5)Surface tensions – Surface tensions are needed to spread
the bioadhesive polymer into the mucosal layer epithelial surface.
24
25. Characteristics of an ideal mucoadhesive polymer
1. The polymer and its degradation products should be
nontoxic and should be nonabsorable from the
gastrointestinal tract.
2. It should be nonirritant & non abrasive to the mucous
membrane.
3. It should preferably form a strong noncovalent bond
with the mucin-epithelial cell surfaces.
4. It should adhere quickly to most tissue and should
possess some site-specificity.
25
26. Continued…
5. It should allow easy incorporation to the drug and offer
no hindrance to its release.
6. The polymer must not decompose on storage or during
the shelf life of the dosage form.
7. The cost of polymer should not be high so that the
prepared dosage form remains competitive.
8.It should get Wash out at desired period.
9.The mucoadhesive should be with high drug-
loading capability.
26
27. Factor affecting Mucoadhesion
A)Polymer related :-
1)molecular weight –up to 10 00 000 and beyond this there
is not much effective .
2)Concentration of active polymer –optimum not too high
that significantly drops strength.
3)Flexibility of polymer chain –
4)spatial conformation –
B)Environmental related :-
1)PH
2)Applied strength – increase up to optimum level
3)Initial contact time
4)swelling –too greater decrease the adhesion
5)mucus compossion
C)Physiological factors :-
1)Mucin turn over
5)Diseased state
27
28. Delivery Systems
1 )Monolithic (or matrix) systems:-
where the drug is dissolved or dispersed
in the polymer system diffusion of drug from the
drug/polymer matrix controls the overall rate of its
release from the device.
2)Reservoir (or membrane) systems :-
where diffusion resistance across a
polymeric membrane controls the overall drug release
rate.
28
30. Targets for Bioadhesive Formulations
Body site Systems
Eye Mucoadhesive eye drops / inserts
Nasal cavity Nasal drug delivery systems
Oral cavity Dental gels / buccal systems
Skin Patches, tapes, dressings
Vagina Local vaginal delivery systems
Rectum Local/systemic rectal delivery systems
30
31. Oral Bioadhesive Formulations
Oral bioadhesive formulations are topical products
designed to deliver drugs to the oral cavity which act by
adhering to the oral mucosa and therefore produce
localised effects within the mouth
The oral cavity
Important functions which
include chewing, speaking
and tasting. Some of these
functions are impaired by
diseases such as ulcers,
microbial infections and
inflammation.
31
32. In contact with saliva Dosage
form become adhesive and
render system attached to mucosa
Drug solution rapidly absorbed throug the the
reticulated vein which is underneath the oral
mucosa & transported through facial vein ,internal
jugular vein ,Brachiocephalic vein .
Rapid absorption –peak 1to 2 min
Some of the common conditions - Mouth ulcers , Oral thrush,
Gingivitis.
32
33. A ) The Buccal Mucosa
The buccal mucosa refers to the
inner lining of the lips and cheeks.
The epithelium of the buccal mucosa is about 40-50
cells thick and the epithelial cells become flatter as they
move from the basal layers to the superficial layers.
The buccal mucosa is less preferable compared to
other oral drug delivery systems because of vary short
transit time.
The bioadhesive polymers can retention of a dosage
form by spreading it over the absorption site.
33
34. B ). The sublingual mucosa
The sublingual mucosa surrounds
the sublingual gland which is a
mucin-producing salivary gland
located underneath the tongue.
Examples :- Glyceryl Trinitrate (GTN) (aerosol spray
(GTN
and tablet in prophylactic treatment of angina.)
Brand name:-Susadrin ,Nitrogard.
34
35. 3 ) The Gingival Mucosa
Hardest muscle of body
Can retain dosage form
for long duration
35
36. Conclusion
Mucoadhesive dosage forms have a high potential
of being useful means of delivering drugs to the body.Current
use of mucoadhesive polymers to increase contact time for a
wide variety of drugs and routes of administration has shown
dramatic improvement in both specific therapies and more
general patient compliance. The general properties of these
polymers for purpose of sustained release of chemicals are
marginal in being able to accommodate a wide range of
physicochemical drug properties. Hence mucoadhesive
polymers can be used as means of improving drug delivery
through different routes like gastrointestinal, nasal, ocular,
buccal, vaginal and rectal .
