Objective. Frusemide loaded calcium alginate micropellets, an oral microparticulate delivery system, was statistically optimized exhibiting prolonged therapeutic action minimizing its adverse effects.Methods. Ionotropic Gelation technique was adopted employing 32Factorial designs and keeping the entire process free from organic solvents. Physicochemical and the release characteristics of the prepared formulations were studied, keeping variations only in sodium alginate (primary polymer) and Acrycoat E30D (copolymer) dispersion.Result. Sodium alginate was predominant over Acrycoat E30D in all batches. Nonadditives or interaction was observed to be insignificant. Multiple regressions produced second-order polynomial equation, and the predictive results obtained were validated with high degree of correlation. Thein vivostudy applauded that optimized calcium alginate micropellets of frusemide can produce a much greater diuretic effect over an extended period of 24 hours.Conclusion. This study reveals that the potential of a single dose of the mathematically optimized micro pellets of frusemide formulation is sufficient in the management of peripheral edema and ascites in congestive heart failure and as well in the treatment of chronic hypertension, leading to better patient compliance, and can be produced with minimum experimentation and time, proving far more cost-effective formulation than the conventional methods of formulating dosage forms.

Se estudió el efecto de recircular la solución ácida residual en la etapa de conversión de alginato de calcio en ácido algínico, utilizando el alga Macrocystis pyrifera . Los líquidos residuales fueron reciclados en un sistema en contra corriente, con lo cual se logró procesar tres cargas de alginato de sodio con el mismo volumen de agua, permitiendo una conversión efectiva en ácido algínico, con una reducción del 56% en el consumo de agua dulce. Se experimentó un sistema de recirculación en línea (sin reemplazo de agua), este sistema no es recomendable, debido a que la acumulación de calcio en el alginato después de la segunda recirculación, produce una viscosidad aparente muy alta, con un porcentaje de reducció superior al 50%. Se determinó el efecto del número de lavados ácidos del ácido algínico sobre la calidad y rendimiento del alginato obtenido. El tratamiento ácido se llevó a cabo con tres, dos y un lavado. Se concluye que se requieren tres lavados de las fibras de alginato de calcio para lograr una conversión efectiva en ácido algínico, pero el primero y segundo lavado se pueden hacer con ácido reciclado. Es tesis tema representa un ahorro del 66% en el consumo de agua en esta etapa. Recycling of residual liquids from the conversion of calcium alginate to alginic acid during alginate production process The effect of recycling the residual acid solution from the conversion of calcium alginate to alginic acid from the alga Macrocystis pyrifera was studied. The residual liquid was recycled using a counter current system; it was possible to treat three batches of calcium alginate with the same amount of water, with an effective conversion into alginic acid, saving 56% of fresh water. An inline recycling system was experimented (without water replacement). This system is not recommended, because the large increase of calcium in the alginate after the second recycling, produces a very high apparent viscosity. Using this system the viscosity was reduced in more than 50%. We experimented the effect of the number of acid washings of the alginic acid, on the yield and quality of the final alginate. The acid treatment was carried out with three, two and one washing. It was concluded that three acid washings of the calcium alginate fibers are necessary to obtain an effective conversion of calcium alginate to alginic acid, but the first and second washings can be carried out with recycled acid. This system represents a water saving up to 66% in this step.

Abstract Spherical glutaraldehyde cross-linked poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels (G-PVA) were prepared in three steps: gelatification, cross-linking, and removal of alginate. Gelatification was carried out by dropping a solution of alginate, PVA, and glutaraldehyde into a calcium chloride solution to form calcium alginate. Calcium alginate gels were prepared at 20°C, 40°C, 60°C, and 80°C to study the effect of gelatification temperature on the formation of pores on the surface of G-PVA. The effect of the alginate content was studied. PVA and glutaraldehyde were cross-linked by immersion of the gels in a solution of H2SO4 and Na2SO4. The effect of sodium alginate and inorganic salts, such as MgSO4 and K2SO4, on the formation of pores on the surface of G-PVA was confirmed.
