Abstract:
Objective The self-microemulsifying drug delivery system(SMEDDS) with tanshinone ⅡA was prepared in order to develop its new dosage forms.Methods Pseudo ternary phase diagrams were used to evaluate the self-microemulsification existence area under emulsifier,coemulsifer,and oil phase.The HPLC analysis in vitro was set up.Solubility in various vehicles was determined.The self-microemulsification efficiency was assessed,such as stability,particle size,and Zeta potential.Results The solubi-lity of tanshinone ⅡA in SMEDDS was about 2.5 mg/g,droplet size was within 20 nm,and the absolute value of Zeta potential was over 60 mV.The stability of SMEDDS with tanshinone ⅡA was better in centrifugal condition with high temperature but not good enough to the light.Conclusion The SMEDDS can make tanshinone ⅡA solublized in water,and is an optimum vehicle in new dosage forms of tanshinone ⅡA.
