분무법을 이용한 alginate microsphere를 제조한 결과 구형을 형성하는 것을 관찰하였고, 이러한 alginate microsphere에서 alginate 농도가 증가할수록 크기는 작아지고, chitosan/alginate microsphere에서 chitosan의 농도가 증가할수록 그 크기가 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. OVA의 방출정도는 alginate microsphere에서 alginate 농도가 증가할수록 잘 이루어지지 않았고, HCl buffer에서보다 PBS buffer에서 방출이 잘되는 것을 확인하였다. Chitosan/alginate microspheres에서는 chitosan의 농도가 증가할수록 방출이 잘되지 않았고, 이는 alginate microsphere에서와 마찬가지로 PBS buffer에서 방출이 잘 이루어지는 것을 확인하였다.

Alginate microspheres were prepared by the emulsification process as a drug delivery system of ampicillin sodium (AMP-Na). The preparation parameters such as the concentration of calcium chloride, the stirring time and the amount of AMP-NA were investigated. The alginate microspheres containing hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) were found to be generally spherical, discrete and had smoother surfaces when compared to without HPMC. However, there was no significant difference in the release profile of AMP-NA from alginate microspheres prepared with or without HPMC. The concentration of calcium chloride solution and the stirring time in the preparation of alginate microspheres influenced the aggregation of alginate microspheres. The amount of AMP-NA in alginate microspheres influenced the surface morphology and the practical drug content in microspheres.

본 연구에서는 유화법을 이용한 alginate 미세입자 제조에 있어서 적절한 alginate 농도와 가교제인 calcium chloride의 농도를 조사하였다. 유화법을 통해 calcium-alginate microsphere는 구형으로 제조되었으며 입자의 크기는 alginate와 가교제의 농도가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 약물방출 경향은 alginate의 농도가 2%(w/v)일 때와 calcium chloride의 농도가 10%(w/v)일 때 가장 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Alginate microspheres, containing fluorescein isothiocyanate-bovine serum albumin (FITC-BSA) or green fluorescent protein (GFP) were prepared and used as a model drug to develop the oral vaccine delivery system. The alginate microspheres were coated with poly-L-lysine or chitosan. Two methods, w/o-emulsion and spray, were used to prepare alginate microspheres. To optimize preparation conditions, effects of several factors on the particle size and particle morphology of microsphere, and loading efficiency of model antigen were investigated. In both preparation methods, the particle size and the loading efficiency were enhanced when the concentration of sodium alginate increased. In the w/o-emulsion preparation method, as the concentration of Span 80 was increased from 0.5% to 2%, the particle size was decreased, but the loading efficiency was increased. The higher the emulsification speed was, the smaller the particle size and loading efficiency were. The concentration of calcium chloride did not show any effect on the particle size and loading efficiency. In the spray preparation method, the particle size was increased as the nozzle pressure $(from\;1\;kgf/m^2\;to\;3\;kgf/m^2)$ and spray rate was raised. Increasing calcium chloride concentration (<7%) decreased the particle size, in contrast to no effect of calcium chloride concentration on the w/o-emulsion preparation method. Alginate microspheres prepared by two methods were different in the particle size and loading efficiency, the particle size of microspheres prepared by the spray method was about $2-6\;{\mu}m$, larger than that prepared by the w/o emulsion method $(about\;2{\mu}m)$, and the loading efficiency was also higher with spray method. Furthermore, drying process for the microspheres prepared by the spray was simpler and easier, compared with the w/o emulsion preparation. Therefore, the spray method was chosen to prepare alginate microspheres for further experiments. Release pattern of FITC-BSA in alginate microspheres was evaluated in simulated intestinal fluid and PBS (phosphate buffered saline). Dissolution rate of FITC-BSA from alginate/chitosan microsphere was lower than that from alginate microsphere and alginate/poly-L-lysine microsphere. By confocal laser scanning microscope, it was revealed that alginate/FITC-poly-L-lysine microspheres were present in close apposition epithelium of the Peyer's patches of rabbits following inoculation into lumen of intestine, which proved that microspheres could be taken up by Peyer's patch. In conclusion, it is suggested that alginate microsphere prepared by spray method, showing a particle size of & $10\;{\mu}m$ and a high loading efficiency, can be used as a model drug for the development of oral vaccine delivery system.

스티렌/아크렬 라텍스 폴리머를 폴리에릴렌이민으 로 표면처 리하여 얻은 PEI-microspheres는 그 표면 화학적 특성이 효소의 고정화에 적합하여 배당체의 합성반응에 서 필요로 하는 alginate-enclosed micro­s spheres biocatalyst를 제조할 수 있었고 라텍스 폴리머 표변에 형성된 폴리에틸렌이민 피막은 효소 부근에 친수성 분위기를 유지하여 높은 효소활성을 나 타내었을 뿐만 아니라, 생성된 배당체가 효소에 접 근하여 가수분해되는 반응을 억제하여 배당체의 수 율과 농도를 크게 증가시 켰으므로 alginate-en closed microspheres에 의한 배당체의 합성반응이 연속생산공정으로 연구개발 될 수 있다.

In this study, ionotropic gelation method was used for the preparation of ibuprofen-loaded calcium alginate (CALG) and ethylenediamine (EDA) treated calcium alginate (EDA-CALG) microspheres. The effect of EDA-treatment on drug entrapment efficiency, particle size, morphology, swelling behavior and in vitro release characteristics of the microspheres was investigated by varying its concentration from 0.5 to 2% (v/v). The reduction in drug entrapment efficiency by a maximum of 44.60% was noted for EDA-CALG microspheres compared to untreated CALG microspheres. The particle size and swelling index of EDA-CALG microspheres were reduced with increasing EDA concentration. All the microspheres were observed to retain their spherical shapes with rough surfaces. EDA-CALG microspheres prepared using 1% and 2% v/v EDA, released almost all of its content within 7 h in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer, however, CALG microspheres were found to release the same within 3 h. The intensity of melting endothermic peak of ibuprofen reduced significantly at lower drug load as experienced from DSC thermograms. The FT-IR spectrum of pure ibuprofen, ibuprofen-loaded CALG and EDA-CALG microspheres showed the characteristic band of C = O stretching vibration of ibuprofen. Hence, this study revealed that EDA can be employed for the preparation of ibuprofen-loaded CALG microspheres to retard the drug release to some extent.

In order to design the oral vaccine delivery system, we prepared the alginate micro spheres containing GFP (green fluorescent protein) as a model drug by spray method. To optimize the preparation conditions of microspheres, we investigated the effects of various parameters including nozzle pressure, nozzle opening angle, and concentrations of sodium alginate and calcium chloride. The prepared microspheres were evaluated by measuring their sizes, loading efficiency, and morphology. The particle size of microspheres was affected by the concentration of sodium alginate and calcium chloride, nozzle pressure, and nozzle opening angle. As the concentration of sodium alginate increased, GFP loading efficiency and particles size of microsphere also increased. However, it was observed to be difficult to spray the sodium alginate solution with concentration greater than 1.5% (w/v), due to high viscosity. The pressure over $3\;kgf/cm^2$ didn't affect the size of particles. As a result, the spraying method enabled us to prepare microspheres for oral vaccine delivery system. In this study, microspheres prepared with 1% (w/v) sodium alginate had greater loading efficiency and better spherical shape.

The aim of this study was to prepare cyclosporin A-loaded liposome (CyA-Lip) as an oral delivery carrier, with their encapsulation into microspheres based on alginate or extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) p-m10356. The main advantage of liposomes in the microspheres (LIMs) is to improve the restricted drug release property from liposomes and their stability in the stomach environment. Alginate microspheres containing CyA-Lip were prepared with a spray nozzle; CyA-Liploaded EPS microspheres were also prepared using a w/o emulsion method. The shape of the LIMs was spherical and uniform, and the particle size of the alginate-LIMs ranged from 5 to $10\;{\mu}m$, and that of the EPS-LIMs was about $100\;{\mu}m$. In a release test, release rate of CyA in simulated intestinal fluid (SIF) from the LIMs was significantly enhanced compared to that in simulated gastric fluid (SGF). In addition, the CyA release rates were slower from formulations containing the liposomes compared to the microspheres without the liposome. Therefore, alginate-and EPS-LIMs have the potential for the controlled release of CyA and as an oral delivery system.
