Ukucaciswa kwama-polymers okulethwa kwezidakamizwa
Ama-polymer aseyisisekelo esibalulekile ekuthuthukisweni kwezinhlelo zanamuhla zokulethwa kwemithi. Uma kuqhathaniswa nezinhlobo zomthamo ezivamile ezifana namathebulethi noma ama-capsule alula, izinhlelo ezisekelwe kuma-polymer ziyakwazi ukulawula ukukhishwa kwemithi ngendlela elawulwayo, zandise ukuzinza kwezithako ezisebenzayo, zithuthukise ukuncibilika kwemithi engancibiliki kahle, futhi ziqondise izindawo ezithile zesenzo emzimbeni. Ukuze ama-polymer asebenze kahle nangokuphepha, inqubo yokuchaza ama-polymer ehlelekile iyadingeka. Ukuchaza kuhlose ukuqonda isakhiwo, izakhiwo ze-physicochemical, ukuziphatha kwemishini, kanye nokusebenzisana kwama-polymer nemithi kanye nemvelo yezinto eziphilayo. Lesi sihloko sixoxa ngemingcele eyinhloko yokuchaza kanye nezindlela zama-polymer asetshenziselwa ukulethwa kwemithi.
Indima Yama-polymers Ezinhlelweni Zokulethwa Kwezidakamizwa
Ekulethweni kwemithi, ama-polymer angasebenza njenge-matrix, i-carrier, i-coating, noma ukwakheka kwezinhlayiya ezincane/ezincane. Izibonelo zifaka phakathi ama-polymer emvelo njenge-alginate, i-chitosan, i-gelatin, kuya kuma-polymer okwenziwa njenge-PLGA (poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)), i-PEG (polyethylene glycol), i-PCL (polycaprolactone), kanye nama-copolymer ahlukahlukene nama-hydrogel. Ukukhethwa kwe-polymer kuthonywa umgomo wokwelapha: ukukhishwa kancane, ukukhishwa okuzwela i-pH, ukulethwa kwesimila, ukulethwa kwesikhumba, noma ukulethwa kwe-mucosal.
Ngesikhathi sesigaba sokuthuthukiswa, ukuhlukaniswa kwezimpawu kusiza ekuphenduleni imibuzo ebalulekile: Ingabe i-polymer izinzile ngokwanele? Ingabe iyahambisana nomuthi? Ingabe yonakala ngesivinini esifunekayo? Ingabe iphephile futhi ayinabo ubuthi? Ingabe izinhlayiya eziphumayo zobukhulu obufanele umzila othize wokuphathwa?
Ukucaciswa kwesakhiwo samakhemikhali kanye nokwakheka kwawo
Isinyathelo sokuqala ukuthola ukuthi i-polymer ingubani kanye nesakhiwo samakhemikhali. Amasu avamile afaka:
1. I-FTIR (i-Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy)
I-FTIR isetshenziselwa ukuhlonza amaqembu asebenzayo (isb., -OH, -COOH, -NH2) nokuqinisekisa izibopho ezithile kuma-polymer. I-FTIR iwusizo futhi ekutholeni ukusebenzisana kwezidakamizwa ne-polymer njengokwakheka kwesibopho se-hydrogen noma izinguquko endaweni yamakhemikhali njengoba kubonakala ekushintsheni kwamabhande okumunca.
2. I-NMR (Ukusabela Kwe-Magnetic Yenuzi)
I-NMR spectroscopy (isb., ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR) inikeza ulwazi olujulile ngesakhiwo seketanga, ukwakheka kwe-copolymer, kanye nezilinganiso ze-monomer (isb., isilinganiso se-lactide:glycolide ku-PLGA). Le datha ibalulekile ngoba izilinganiso ze-monomer zingathinta ukuwohloka kanye namaphrofayili okutholakala kwe-bioavailability. ukukhululwa kwezidakamizwa.
3. Ukuhlaziywa kwezinto eziyisisekelo kanye ne-chromatography
