as can be seen from the above table, the sirolimus coated particles prepared by the process parameters of examples 23 and 24 have a better coating rate, wherein the coating rate of example 24 is the best, and reaches 74.1%.
Meanwhile, in order to obtain more preferable preparation process parameters, the applicant selects the effects of the "supercritical temperature", "supercritical pressure" and "concentration of the solution a" as orthogonal three factors on the coating rate of the sirolimus-coated particles, and performs an orthogonal experiment, and the preparation methods of the embodiments 25 to 33 are the same as the embodiment 1 except that the above 3 factors are different, and the three factor variables are as follows:
Figure BDA0002443822340000151
the specific experimental results are as follows:
Figure BDA0002443822340000152
from the above orthogonal experiments k 1-k 3, it was found that the solution A had the best coating effect at a concentration of 1mg/ml, and that the sirolimus-coated particles had the better coating rate at a supercritical state of 45 ℃ and 80 bar.
In addition, in order to more intuitively detect the sirolimus coated particles of the present application, the applicant performed electron microscope observation of the sirolimus coated particles prepared in example 1 and example 24 under a 5000-fold electron microscope, and the specific results are as follows:
FIG. 2 is an electron micrograph of sirolimus coated particles prepared in example 1 and lactose particle carriers of example 1 without sirolimus microparticles coating, wherein:
FIG. 2 (a) is an electron micrograph of sirolimus-coated particles prepared in example 1;
FIG. 2 (b) is an electron micrograph of a lactose particle carrier uncoated with sirolimus fine particles in example 1;
as can be seen from FIG. 2, crystalline sirolimus is uniformly coated on the surface of the carrier, and the particle size is about 1 μm.
FIG. 3 is an electron microscope comparison of sirolimus coated particles prepared in example 24 with microcrystalline cellulose particle carriers of example 24 in which the sirolimus particles are not coated, wherein:
FIG. 3 (c) is an electron micrograph of sirolimus-coated particles prepared in example 24;
FIG. 3 (d) is an electron micrograph of a carrier of microcrystalline cellulose particles in example 24, which carrier is not coated with sirolimus fine particles;
FIG. 4 is an electron micrograph of sirolimus coated particles prepared in example 13 compared to a sucrose particle carrier of example 13 that is not coated with sirolimus microparticles wherein:
FIG. 4 (e) is an electron micrograph of sirolimus-coated particles prepared in example 13;
FIG. 4 (f) is an electron micrograph of a sucrose particle carrier uncoated with sirolimus fine particles in example 13;
FIG. 5 is an electron microscope image of sirolimus prepared by a conventional media milling method.
As can be seen from fig. 3, 4 and 5, the bulk drug of sirolimus is a rhombohedral crystal with a large particle size, and the coated particles prepared by the SASFB technique have a significantly reduced particle size and a reduced crystallinity with only a small amount of microcrystals.
In conclusion, according to the method for preparing sirolimus coated particles based on the supercritical anti-solvent method, the sirolimus particles which are precipitated by the supercritical anti-solvent method and coated on the surface of the particle carrier have smaller particle size, so that the solubility of sirolimus in water is greatly improved, and meanwhile, the sirolimus coated particles prepared by the method have good coating rate. Therefore, the sirolimus coated particle prepared by the preparation method effectively improves the utilization rate of sirolimus, and solves the problems that the energy consumption is high and the grinding high temperature can cause the inactivation of the medicine when the sirolimus is prepared by the existing medium grinding method, and the problems that the subsequent treatment steps are complicated and the industrialized production is not facilitated when the existing method for improving the solubility of sirolimus is adopted.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and not to limit the same; while the invention has been described in detail and with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some or all of the technical features may be equivalently replaced; and the modifications or the substitutions do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions depart from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
