Abstract:
:In the present study, the features of two new thiolated polymers--the so-called thiomers--were investigated. Mediated by a carbodiimide cysteamine was covalently attached to sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC) and neutralised polycarbophil (Na-PCP). Depending on the weight-ratio polymer to cysteamine during the coupling reaction, the resulting CMC-cysteamine conjugate and PCP-cysteamine conjugate showed in maximum 43 +/- 15 and 138 +/- 22 micromole thiol groups per g polymer (mean +/- S.D.; n=3), respectively, which were used for further characterisation. Tensile studies carried out with the CMC-cysteamine conjugate on freshly excised porcine intestinal mucosa displayed no significantly (P<0.01) improved mucoadhesion, whereas, the mucoadhesive properties of the PCP-cysteamine conjugate were increased 2.5-fold compared with the unmodified polymer. The swelling behaviour of the CMC-cysteamine conjugate was uninfluenced by the covalent attachment of the sulfhydryl compound. In contrast the swelling behaviour of the PCP-cysteamine conjugate was improved significantly (P<0.01) versus unmodified PCP. Furthermore, in aqueous solutions the disintegration time of tablets based on the CMC- and PCP-cysteamine conjugates was prolonged 1.5 and 3.2-fold, respectively, in comparison to tablets containing the corresponding unmodified polymers. According to these results, especially the PCP-cysteamine conjugate represents a promising new pharmaceutical excipient for various drug delivery systems.
