  • Publication number: 20080003295
    Abstract: Bioadhesive nanoparticulate compositions, comprising active agent particles and one or more cationic surface stabilizers, are described. The cationic surface stabilizers prevent aggregation of the nanoparticles and increase bioadhesion of the nanoparticles to biological substrates, such as an insect, teeth, bone, nails, chitin, feathers, scales, mucous, skin, hair, plant tissue, etc. The particles may consist of pharmacologically active compounds (e.g., drug compounds for human or veterinary use), agricultural chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, and the like), cosmetic agents, consumer products (coloring agents, flavors, or fragrances), or other materials which function by interacting with biological substrates. In addition, the invention relates to methods of preparing and using such bioadhesive nanoparticulate compositions.

  • Publication number: 20050031691
    Abstract: Disclosed is a solid or semi-solid gelatin nanoparticulate active agent dosage form comprising at least one nanoparticulate active agent and at least one gel forming substance which exhibits gelation sufficient to retain excess water in the solid or semi-solid gelatin form. The active agent particles have an effective average diameter prior to inclusion in the dosage form of less than about 2000 nm. The dosage form of the invention has the advantages of easy administration combined with rapid dissolution of the active agent following administration.
