University of Huddersfield Researchers Publish New Studies and Findings in the Area of Central Nervous System Agents (Ethyl cellulose-chitosan microspheres of sumatriptan succinate for nasal drug delivery).

Researchers at the University of Huddersfield have conducted a study on central nervous system agents, specifically focusing on the preparation of mucoadhesive microspheres for nasal drug delivery. The study compared two methods of microsphere synthesis using ethyl cellulose and chitosan as polymers. The results showed that the first method produced spherical microspheres with a smaller particle size and higher drug entrapment efficiency compared to the second method. The researchers concluded that the choice of method and chitosan concentration are crucial factors in optimizing drug delivery systems for targeted applications. [Extracted from the article]
