  • Publication number: 20060154378
    Abstract: The invention provides a facile method for measuring the leaching of encapsulated active ingredient from application media. This is achieved by separating a container by a membrane permeable to encapsulated material, but not to capsules; pouring a solution of the application medium into a first part of the container; pouring a solution of the application medium and encapsulated active ingredient into a second part of the container; allowing the solutions in both parts of the container to reach equilibrium; and measuring the concentration of the active ingredient in the first part of the container by directly injecting the solution into a Gas Chromatograph or High Performance Liquid Chromatograph.

  • Publication number: 20050131199
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for forming compounds of Formula HO—C(?O)R1—X—R2—X—R1—C(?O)—O—H wherein compound (I) can be polymerized to provide a polymer that contains therapeutically active compounds. In the compounds of the invention, each R1 is group that will provide the therapeutically active compound upon hydrolysis of the polymer; each X is independently an ester linkage or an amide linkage; and R2 is a linking group.
