Description
Summary:Chitosan, a cationic polysaccharide has many advantages as carrier for drug delivery system such as biocompatible, biodegradable and non toxic.Chitosan has amino group that could be crosslinked with polianion such as tripolyphosphate so that the active ingredient will be entrapped (Agnihotri, 2004, Sinha, 2004). Diterpene lactone fraction of sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) has antimalarial activity but it has low solubility in water. Entrapped diterpene lactone into chitosan matrix could improve the bioavailability of the active substance. The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of process parameter of chitosan carrier preparation : stirring rate (500 rpm and 1000 rpm) during ionic gelation and nozzle diameter (0.5 mm and 1.0 mm) of spray dryer on physical characteristics of diterpene lactone fraction-chitosan particles. Evaluation of morphology, thermal analysis and drug entrapment were conducted.
