The techniques available to study formulation stability in pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs) are limited, due to the challenging conditions of working with high pressure propellants. Isothermal microcalorimetry is a valuable tool used to screen and aid in formulation development of solid and solution drug formulations; however there are currently no available methods to evaluate pMDIs. In this paper, we have developed a method that allows measurement of such pressurized systems.

Isothermal Microcalorimetry of Pressurized Systems I: A Rapid Method to Evaluate Pressurized Metered Dose Inhaler Formulations.

Current colloidal probe preparation techniques face several challenges in the production of functional probes using particles ⩽5 μm. Challenges include: glue encapsulated particles, glue altered particle properties, improper particle or agglomerate attachment, and lengthy procedures. We present a method to rapidly and reproducibly produce functional micro and nano-colloidal probes.
