EFFECT OF A HYDROPHILISING SUBSTANCE ON THE VISCOSITY OF GYNAECOLOGICAL GELS CONTAINING LACTIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH CHITOSAN
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2012, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Thus ensuring a continuous action of a drug also during daily activity time of a patient is a vital question in gynaecological treatment. The main problem in applied therapies is to maintain the continuity of treatment during 24 hours. The addition of 5-25% glycerol or 1,2-propylene glycol decreases the pH of investigated gels with calcium alginate to 4.20 to 4.88 (1:1) and 3.69 to 4.19 (2:1); 4.29 to 4.88 (1:1) and 3.62 to 4.40 (2:1). The addition of 5-25% glycerol or 1,2-propylene glycol increases the dynamic viscosity gels with calcium alginate from 595.14 to 820.25 for 1:1 and 640.15 to 769.12 for 2:1; 585.40 to 815.56 for 1:1 and 648.52 to 780.10 for 2:1 ratios. Rheological investigations revealed an increase in the dynamic viscosity of preparations containing poloxamer 407 with the addition of calcium alginate and glycerol or 1,2-propylene glycol in comparison to the reference gels.

THE PROPERTIES OF THERMOSENSITIVE GYNECOLOGICAL POWDERS CONTAINING LACTIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH CHITOSAN
The investigations showed that the addition of a 20%, 23% and 25% poloxamer 407 increases the adhesive properties of the investigated powders, but at the same time it increases their pH. The enrichment of the composition...
SCREENING OF THE CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF Pd0 AND Pd2+- SUPPORTED ON CHITOSAN BEADS AND CRYOGELS
Here, we report the results of screening of the catalytic activity of Pd-containing chitosan beads and cryogels in the cross-coupling reaction, hydrogenation of alkenes, nitro-, and carbonyl compounds and the hydrodechlo...
EFFECT OF A DEXTRANE AND HYDROPHILIZING SUBSTANCES ON THE PROPERTIES OF THERMOSENSITIVE HYDROPHILIC GELS CONTAINING LACTIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH CHITOSAN
Gels containing lactic acid complexed with chitosan at a stechiometric ratio 1:1 and 2:1 and 5-25% content of PEG-200 reveal pH from 3.42 to 4.95. The addition of 20 – 25% poloxamer 407 increases the pH from 4.55 to 5.30...
PROCESS OF CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION OF OLIGOAMINOSACCHARIDES IN A COLUMN REACTOR
A continuous production of oligoaminosaccharides from chitosan was achieved with a column reactor packed with chitosanolytic enzymes-containing mycelia of Mucor circinelloides and Mucor racemosus immobilized in porous ca...
INFLUENCE OF A POLYVINYL ALKOHOL AND DEXTRANE ON THE PROPERTIES OF HYDROPHILIC GELS CONTAINING LACTIC ACID COMPLEX WITH CHITOSAN
The investigated preparations on methylcellulose base revealed good adhesion to the vaginal mucosa and were present on it throughout the daily activities of the patient. This property enabled the continuity of 24-hour ac...
