Kinetic Model identification of Drug Release from Microcapsules Using the Nonlinear Regression Search Procedure

  • Chapter
Book cover Microencapsulation and Artificial Cells

Abstract

Drug release from microcapsules has been shown by several investigators to follow either a square-root-of-time equation (1,2) or a first-order kinetic equation (3,4). Other authors (5) have found that the kinetic data from microcapsules agree both with first-order and square-root-of-time equations. Application of the differential rate treatment (6) was needed in order to distinguish between the two kinetic release models. It was found that kinetic data actually conformed with the first-order equation.
