Zinc and Calcium Cations Combination in the Production of Floating Alginate Beads as Prednisolone Delivery Systems

Zinc and Calcium Cations Combination in the Production of Floating Alginate Beads as Prednisolone Delivery Systems

The aim of this research was to verify the application of alginate in combination with Ca<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> ions to produce a floating and prolonged release system for the oral administration of prednisolone. Hollow and floating gel-beads were designed using pr...
