Prakash Rao B et al./ Formulation and Evaluation <strong>of</strong> <strong>Mucoadhesive</strong> Buccal Drug Delivery System <strong>of</strong> Metoprolol Tartrate by Using Central Composite Design Table 8: FT-IR spectrum <strong>of</strong> MT alone and excipients Interpretation IR absorption IR absorption band <strong>of</strong> metoprolol band <strong>of</strong> Pure Metoprolol Drug + Drug + HPC Tartrate(cm -1 ) -1 Carbopol (cm ) -1 (cm ) -NH 2 ,-OH,aliphatic 3610.79 – 2360.95 3608.93 – 2359.89 3611.83 – 2356.13 and aromatic CH Carboxylic acid salt 1573.97 1580.14 1580.57 Aromatic ring 1514.17 1515.14 1513.21 Isopropyl group 1179.51 1180.47 1174.69 Aliphatic ether, 1112.00 1112.00 1112.00 1,4 secondary alcohol di-substituted Benzene 824.24 826.53 824.60 Table 9: Result <strong>of</strong> stability studies according to ICH guidelines Parameter 0 Days 6 months Physical apperence White White Drug content 49.06 49.05 Bioadhesive strength 43.52 43.12 physical changes <strong>of</strong> the substance are recorded as a function <strong>of</strong> temperature or time as substance is heated at a liner rate. The DTA <strong>of</strong> the pure drug shows two endothermic peaks(Fig 0 11). The peak at 123.19 C indicates its melting point and the 0 other peak at 223.12 C may be the degredation peak. In the DTA studies there was no shift in the melting peak. So, the selected excipients for the formulation were found to be compatible with the active ingredients and having no physical interaction with the active pharmaceutical ingredient. Stabality Studies The optimized formula was evaluated for physical appearance, drug content and bioadhesive strength for every month. The values given were at end <strong>of</strong> the six months. It was found that optimized formula was stable. CONCLUSION The CCD was used to find out the effect <strong>of</strong> independent varibles on the dependable variables. The result <strong>of</strong> CCD revealed that the carbopol 934P and HPC have significant effect on the drug release at 8 hour, bioadhesive strength, T50% and release exponent(n). The observed independent variables were found to be very close to predicted values <strong>of</strong> optimized formulation which demonstrates the feasibility <strong>of</strong> the optimization procedure in successful development <strong>of</strong> buccal tablets containing MT by using carbopol 934P and HPC. 155 REFERENCES 1.
