Determination of drug and fatty acid binding capacity to pluronic f127 in microemulsions

We propose that one can deduce very insightful information regarding the drug and fatty acid binding capacity of microemulsions through simple turbidity experiments. Pluronic F127-based oil-in-water microemulsions of various compositions were synthesized and titrated to turbidity with concentrated a...

520 |a We propose that one can deduce very insightful information regarding the drug and fatty acid binding capacity of microemulsions through simple turbidity experiments. Pluronic F127-based oil-in-water microemulsions of various compositions were synthesized and titrated to turbidity with concentrated amitriptyline, an antidepressant drug. We observed that, above certain Pluronic F127 concentrations, turbidity was never observed, irrespective of how much amitriptyline was added to the microemulsion. We also observed that whenever sodium caprylate fatty acid was not included in the microemulsion formulation, turbidity never occurred. On the basis of these findings, we were able to determine the point at which all sodium caprylate present in the microemulsion formulation was bound to the F127 in the microemulsion (i.e., no fatty acid was free in the bulk in monomer form). By the same logic we were also able to determine how much amitriptyline was binding to the microemulsions. We also measured the dynamic surface tension, foamability, and fabric wetting time of the microemulsion formulations to further prove the hypothesis that all fatty acid is bound to the F127 in the microemulsion above a critical Pluronic F127 concentration. On the basis of this research, we have concluded that there are approximately 11 molecules of sodium caprylate fatty acid bound per molecule of Pluronic F127 and approximately 12 molecules of amitriptyline bound per molecule of Pluronic F127 in the optimal microemulsion formulation. These findings give us valuable information about the charge density at the oil/water interface and about the mechanism of binding of the drug to the microemulsion
