Construction and evaluation of berberine/piperine co-loaded self-microemulsion drug delivery system
To prepare berberine/piperine co-loaded self-microemulsion drug delivery system (BBR/PIP-SMEDDS), evaluate its physicochemical properties,
in vitro
release and pharmacokinetic characteristics.
METHODS
2
The drug loading mass ratio of berberine (BBR) and piperine (PIP) in the preparation was determined by the everted intestinal sac method. The oil-phase, emulsifier and co-emulsifier were determined by solubility detection, compatibility evaluation and pseudo-ternary phase diagram, respectively. The formulation of blank self-microemulsion drug delivery system (SMEDDS) was optimized and verified by central composite design-response surface methodology with the amount of oil-phase and the mass ratio of emulsifier to co-emulsifier as factors, and the comprehensive score of particle size and Zeta potential as response value. According to the optimal prescription, BBR/PIP-SMEDDS was prepared by adding excessive BBR and PIP raw materials under magnetic stirring, and its physicochemical properties,
in vitro
release behavior and pharmacokinetic characteristics in rats were investigated.
RESULTS
2
The drug loading mass ratio of BBR and PIP was 1∶1. The optimal prescription included oil-phase (ethyl oleate) accounted for 18.54%, emulsifier (Tween-80) accounted for 52.16%, and co-emulsifier (polyethylene glycol 400) accounted for 29.30%. Three verification experiments showed that the average particle size of blank SMEDDS was (16.49±0.49) nm; the Zeta potential was (-16.22±0.77) mV; the comprehensive score was 0.97, the relative deviation of which from the predicted value (0.95) was 2.11%. The prepared BBR/PIP-SMEDDS was an oil-in-water microemulsion, which was a golden yellow oily liquid with a spherical shape. The average particle size was (32.90±0.38) nm, and the Zeta potential was (-19.17±0.70) mV. The encapsulation efficiency of BBR w
as (90.44±0.88)%, and the drug loading was (10.18±0.17) mg/g. The encapsulation efficiency of PIP was (87.48±1.13)%, and the drug loading was (9.41±0.17) mg/g. BBR/PIP-SMEDDS had good stability at low temperature (4 ℃) in the dark, centri-fugation and dilution. The results of
in vitro
release showed that the cumulative release percentage of BBR in simulated intestinal fluid for 24 h was significantly higher than that of the raw drug after the preparation of SMEDDS. The pharmacokinetic results in rats showed that the peak concentration and area under the drug-concentration time curve (AUC
0-
t
) of BBR/PIP-SMEDDS were 4.61 and 7.07 times higher than those of the raw drug respectively, and the relative bioavailability was 707.484%.
CONCLUSIONS
2
BBR/PIP-SMEDDS is successfully prepared, and the
in vitro
release and bioavailability of the preparation are greatly improved compared with the raw material.
