UV-Visible spectroscopy: Basics

Ultraviolet Spectroscopy In this anaytical technique, ultraviolet radiations are used. Wavelength ranges of radiations: Visible light : 400 - 800 nm Near UV radiations : 200 - 400 nm Far/ Vacuum UV : below 200 nm Generally, we carry out UV analysis in near UV region of radiations. PRINCIPLE : Electronic transitions When a molecule absorbs UV radiations, the electronic excitation occur where electrons go from lower to higher energy state.  Electronic excitation causes the electron to go from electron bonding orbital to antibonding orbital. After some time electron returns to its original state (stable). While returning to its stable form (into bonding orbital) it releases excess energy. That energy is measured by the detector to access the wavelength (λmax) /absorption pattern. TRANSITIONS: σ → σ* (126-135 nm) n → σ* (180-200 nm) π → π* n → π* ALLOWED TRANSITION:  π → π* FORBIDDEN TRANSITIONS:    n → π* ENERGY OF VARIO...

TABLETS

    Short notes on tablets I In this first article on tablets I am going to provide some important points regarding tablet formulation.   ü   I : Advantages, disadvantages, tablet defects and the excipients used in the formulation of tablets ü   II : Evaluationparameters and types & classes of tablets . Second part of this topic will be provided in the next post. So, for short notes on second point please refer the next post. Let’s start with the first point in this topic. ADVANTAGES OF TABLETS Oral route of administration is the most preferred route for the administration of drugs for their systemic effects. Tablets are mostly preferred for this due to following advantages: ·          Unit dosage forms ·          Greatest dose precision ·          Least content variability ·       ...

CAPSULES I

Capsules are solid unit dosage forms in which the drug substance is enclosed within either a hard or soft gelatin shell. Hard gelatin capsules (HGC) : Hard Gelatin Capsules Contain two parts: a cap and other is a body. Widely used for the filling of powders, granules and pellets. Manufactured by dipping method, which involves steps: Dipping, Rotation, Drying, Stripping, Trimming & Joining . These are less plasticised than soft gelatin capsules. Soft gelatin capsules ( SGC): Soft Gelatin Capsules (Softgels) Referred as softgels as these are made from the more plasticised gelatin film. These are completely sealed dosage form & cannot be opened without destroying the shell. Generally, suspensions or the solutions of drug that do not solubilize the gelatin shell are enclosed in SGC. The most common methods for preparation of SGC is Rotary die process, Plate process, Bubble method, Accogel  (powder or granules filling). HARD GELATIN CAPSUL...
