  • Formulation of Poloxamers for Drug Delivery
    Journal of Functional Biomaterials Review Formulation of Poloxamers for Drug Delivery Andrew M. Bodratti and Paschalis Alexandridis * Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, University at Buffalo, The State University of New York (SUNY), Buffalo, NY 14260, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-716-645-1183 Received: 18 December 2017; Accepted: 14 January 2018; Published: 18 January 2018 Abstract: Poloxamers, also known as Pluronics®, are block copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(propylene oxide) (PPO), which have an amphiphilic character and useful association and adsorption properties emanating from this. Poloxamers find use in many applications that require solubilization or stabilization of compounds and also have notable physiological properties, including low toxicity. Accordingly, poloxamers serve well as excipients for pharmaceuticals. Current challenges facing nanomedicine revolve around the transport of typically water-insoluble drugs throughout the body, followed by targeted delivery. Judicious design of drug delivery systems leads to improved bioavailability, patient compliance and therapeutic outcomes. The rich phase behavior (micelles, hydrogels, lyotropic liquid crystals, etc.) of poloxamers makes them amenable to multiple types of processing and various product forms. In this review, we first present the general solution behavior of poloxamers, focusing on their self-assembly properties. This is followed by a discussion of how the self-assembly properties of poloxamers can be leveraged to encapsulate drugs using an array of processing techniques including direct solubilization, solvent displacement methods, emulsification and preparation of kinetically-frozen nanoparticles. Finally, we conclude with a summary and perspective. Keywords: Pluronic; poly(ethylene oxide); poly(ethylene glycol); nanomedicine; excipient; formulation; solubilization; anticancer; micelle; nanoparticle; hydrogel 1.

  • ABSTRACT CHANG, DAVID W. Investigation of Interfacial
    ABSTRACT CHANG, DAVID W. Investigation of Interfacial Interactions in Surfactant-mediated Shear Protection of Animal Cell Culture (under the direction of Dr. Orlin D. Velev). The biotechnology industry has rapidly developed over the past few decades as innovative treatments for diseases and conditions emerge. This progress has led to rapid expansion of technologies to support the large scale (>10000L) production of therapeutics from microbial, fungal, mammalian, and insect cell culture. Progress in strain engineering and media optimization has led to more than hundred-fold increases in yield and productivity. However, significant gaps in knowledge still exist on the physical and interfacial phenomena involved during the upstream production process. These include fundamental understanding of interactions between cells, surfactants, and proteins, as well as the formation and mitigation of foams stabilized by bioparticles. Improper control of these interactions can hinder cell growth through shear damage, mass transfer limitations, and cell aggregation. This dissertation investigates the impact of surfactants (Poloxamers) on the gas, liquid, and cell membrane interfaces to elucidate the mechanism of surfactant-mediated protection of cell culture. We then apply this knowledge to improve bioreactor performance in a commercial Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell process. First, we characterize the foam stability and equilibrium surface tension of pure and mixed Poloxamer systems in correlation with their ability to mitigate shear damage to cells in a turbulent environment. We demonstrate that while Poloxamer 188 (P188) can function as a highly effective shear protectant, the presence of a surface-active contaminant can greatly hinder its protective characteristics. Poloxamer 407 (P407) was found to function as such a surface active “impurity,” disrupting shear protection when mixed with P188 by preferentially adsorbing to the gas-liquid and membrane-liquid interface.

An Abstract of The Preparation and Characterization of Poloxamer-Based Temperature-Sensitive Hydrogels for Topical Drug Delivery. by Sarath Chandra Reddy Gandra Submitted to Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for The Master of Science Degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences with Industrial Pharmacy option The University of Toledo August 2103 Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels change their swelling behavior and drug release by sensing changes in the surrounding environment. One example is temperature-sensitive hydrogels which change their swelling behavior in response to a change in the environmental temperature. Poloxamers are tri-block copolymers that exhibit thermoreversible properties by transforming from a liquid-like behavior to gel-like behavior above a certain temperature called sol-gel transition temperature. By varying the concentration of poloxamer and other excipients, hydrogels with sol-gel transition point close to body temperature can be achieved. The aim of the present study was to develop poloxamer hydrogels as in situ gelling formulation for topical drug delivery.

  • Rheological and Drug Delivery Characteristics of Poloxamer-Based Diclofenac Sodium Formulations for Chronic Wound Site Analgesia

Brogden 1,3,* 1 Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Experimental Therapeutics, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA; [email protected] 2 Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA; jennifer-fi[email protected] 3 Department of Dermatology, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 12 November 2020; Accepted: 11 December 2020; Published: 15 December 2020 Abstract: Chronic wounds are a significant and growing health problem, and clinical treatment is often a painful experience. A topical dosage form would be optimal to treat this pain. Poloxamer 407, a thermosensitive polymer that is a liquid at low temperatures but gels at higher temperatures, is well suited to administer topical analgesics to chronic wound sites. The goal of this study was to evaluate the gelation and drug delivery properties of poloxamer 407 gels containing diclofenac sodium for potential use in chronic wound analgesic delivery. The gelation properties of poloxamer formulations were evaluated rheologically. Drug delivery properties of poloxamers loaded with diclofenac sodium were evaluated using snakeskin dialysis membranes, intact porcine ear skin, and porcine ear skin impaired via tape stripping. A commercial gel product and a solution of diclofenac sodium in water were used as control formulations. Poloxamer concentration and gelation temperature varied inversely, and the addition of higher concentrations of diclofenac sodium correlated to significant increases in poloxamer gelation temperature.

  • Molecular Interactions in Binary Surfactant Solutions: Effect of Ph

The composition of mixed micelles and adsorption layers, parameters of molecular interactions in mixed micelles βm and σ 0 0 adsorption layers β , as well as standard free energies of micelle formation ΔG mic and adsorption ΔG ads were calculated. It was found that molecules of the nonionic surfactant presumably dominate in the mixed micelles and adsorption layers. It was shown that βm and βσ have negative values, which indicate the strengthening of intermolecular interactions in the mixed micelles and adsorption layers. Based on the data obtained, it was suggested that ion-dipole interactions are involved in the formation of intermolecular structures between nonionic and cationic surfactants in aqueous solution and at the air-solution interface.

The ability of these copolymers to self-assemble as micelles and to undergo sol-to-gel transitions upon heating has endowed the denomination of “smart” or “intelligent” systems. The use of PEO-PPO-PEO copolymers as gene delivery systems is a powerful emerging strategy to improve the performance of classical gene transfer vectors. This review summarizes the state of art of the application of PEO-PPO-PEO copolymers in both nonviral and viral gene transfer approaches and their potential as gene delivery systems in different regenerative medicine approaches. Keywords: PEO-PPO-PEO copolymers; nonviral vectors; viral vectors; gene transfer 1. PEO-PPO-PEO Tri-Block Copolymers Amphiphilic copolymers are particularly appealing materials due to their ability of simultaneously displaying the performance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers.
