Making tablets for delivery of poorly soluble drugs using photoinitiated 3D inkjet printing (2019)
Journal Article
Clark, E. A., Alexander, M. R., Irvine, D. J., Roberts, C. J., Wallace, M. J., Yoo, J., & Wildman, R. D. (2020). Making tablets for delivery of poorly soluble drugs using photoinitiated 3D inkjet printing. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 578, Article 118805. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.118805

© 2019 In this study, we investigate the viability of three-dimensional (3D) inkjet printing with UV curing to produce solid dosage forms containing a known poorly soluble drug, carvedilol. The formulation consists of 10 wt% carvedilol, Irgacure 2959... Read More about Making tablets for delivery of poorly soluble drugs using photoinitiated 3D inkjet printing.

Cetuximab-conjugated chitosan-pectinate (modified) composite nanoparticles for targeting colon cancer (2019)
Journal Article

Water-Based 3D Inkjet Printing of an Oral Pharmaceutical Dosage Form (2019)
Journal Article
Cader, H. K., Rance, G. A., Alexander, M. R., Gonçalves, A. D., Roberts, C. J., Tuck, C. J., & Wildman, R. D. (2019). Water-Based 3D Inkjet Printing of an Oral Pharmaceutical Dosage Form. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 564, 359-368. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2019.04.026

Inkjet printing is a form of additive manufacturing where liquid droplets are selectively deposited onto a substrate followed by solidification. The process provides significant potential advantages for producing solid oral dosage forms or tablets, i... Read More about Water-Based 3D Inkjet Printing of an Oral Pharmaceutical Dosage Form.

Antifungal and mucoadhesive properties of an orally administered chitosan-coated amphotericin B 1 nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC) (2019)
