Abstract

In this study, microspheres for periodontal therapy using chitosan, were developed. An antifungal drug, natamycin was chosen as the candidate compound. Chitosan microspheres with a yield value of 40.77 % were prepared by emulsion-polymerization method. The encapsulation efficiency of the drug was 21.8%. About 50% of the microspheres had a mean particle size of 60.5±10.5 μm in size and spherical in overall shape with a porous and rough surface. A slow release was observed with 4.8% of the drug during the first hour and 10.8% in 8h. The developed formulation which provided a drug concentration above its MIC value against Candida albicans can be a promising system for delivery of antimicrobial agents into the periodontal pocket.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, kitosan kullanılarak periodontal tedavi için mikroküreler geliştirilmiştir. Antifungal bir ilaç olan natamisin aday bileşik olarak seçilmiştir. Kitosan mikroküreleri %40.77 verim değeri ile emülsiyon-polimerizasyon yöntemi kullanılarak hazırlanmıştır. İlaç tutulma etkinliği %21.8’dir. Mikrokürelerin yaklaşık %50’si 60.5±10.5 μm ortalama partikül büyüklüğüne sahiptir ve poröz, pürüzlü yüzeyli küresel şekillidir. İlk bir saat boyunca %4.8 ve 8 saat‘de %10.8 ile yavaş bir salım gözlenmiştir. Candida albicans’a karşı MIC değerinin üzerinde ilaç konsantrasyonu sağlayan bu formülasyon, periodontal cebe antimikrobiyal ilaçların taşınması için ümit vadedici bir sistem olarak önerilmektedir.
