General description
Ethyl cellulose is a lipophilic polymer that possesses excellent membrane-forming ability and durability. It facilitates the formation of free films and is utilized in studying the dynamic interaction of polymer films with water.
Application
Ethyl cellulose has been used in the preparation of biostructures such as matrices, microspheres, microparticles, pellets and tablets for use in drug delivery. It has also been used in making chemically modified ethyl cellulose-based membrane for the purification of IgG.

Loratadine-loaded microspheres were prepared by spray-drying of dispersions, emulsions and suspensions differing in polymeric composition and solvents used. Conventional microspheres were obtained by spray-drying of dispersions composed of chitosan (CM) as only polymer, while composed microspheres were obtained by spray-drying

Drug release from oral pharmaceutical formulations can be modified by applying a polymeric coating film with controlled mass transport properties. Interaction of the coating film with water may crucially influence its composition and permeability to both water and drug. Understanding

Chitosan has become a focus of major interest in recent years due to its excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and non-toxicity. Although this material has already been extensively investigated in the design of different types of drug delivery systems, it is still
