Dissolution testing: do
really need them?
77
Purposes of dissolution
testing
• To assess either the amount of drug released or the
drug release profile
• To fulfil the compendia requirements
• To develop a formulation
• To maintain the performance and consistency of the
manufacturing processes
• In vitro equivalency testing of drug release
• In vivo in vitro correlation
78
Drug release phenomenon
• The diffusion is mainly related to the dissolution
phenomenon.
• The diffusion phenomenon followed Fick’s rules
(Fick II)
δC (Cs − Cb)

Sink condition: a big
challenge
• The sink condition means the dissolution/diffusion
rate of the drug is constant in which it is achieved
by the greater ratio of medium volume to the
saturated solubility of the drug in range of 10-20
times
• It is a big problem for a poorly water soluble drug
with a high drug loading
• The sink condition affects the gradient
concentration between stagnant layer and bulk
concentration

Dissolution in compendia
procedure
• Apparatus 1 (basket)
• Apparatus 2 (paddle)
• Apparatus 3 (rotating cylinder)
• Apparatus 4 (flow through cell)
• Apparatus 5 (paddle over disk)
• Apparatus 6 (cylinder)
• Apparatus 7 (reciprocating holder)
81
Apparatus 1 (Basket)
83
Apparatus 1 (Basket)
• Suitable for capsule or tablet dosage form. In
addition, beads and floating beads can be
performed in this apparatus
• Easy to pH change or medium stage dissolution
procedure
• Bubble in the basket wall inhibits the drug release
• Dead zone i.e. no hydrodynamic movement of the
medium below the basket
84
Apparatus 2 (Paddle)
85
Apparatus 2 (Paddle)
• Suitable for tablet dosage form
• Capsule dosage form needs sinker to avoid the
tablet floating
• Sinker can be made form inert material e.g. 316L
wired 22/20G
• No dead zone and full hydrodynamic movement
• Although, the shifting of pH or pH stage dissolution
procedure is not easy owing to disturbance of the
drug release
86
Consideration for dissolution
testing
• Temperature should be controlled
• Medium and volume, apparatus and aggitation,
time sampling can be obtained from individual
monograph
