Abstract
The invention relates to a method for dosing active agents in powder form onto a given surface. The method is characterised in that the active agent is transferred onto a roller in the form of an electrically charged powder, said roller having an opposite electric charge, in that the active agent transferred to the roller is then transferred onto a flat substrate with the opposite electric charge to the active agent and in that the active agent transferred onto the substrate is fixed by means of heat treatment.
Description
DVUDOJ ^UE] ΊΤ.1Π Ή'Ί-GTl "7 ID J1T1 K Π]Π UJ_r Ώ ^ η^ΠΠ DRY COPYING PROCESS FOR PRODUCING FLAT, SINGLE-DOSE ACTIVE INGREDIENT PREPARATIONS O Dry copying process for producing flat, single-dose active ingredient preparations Single-dose active ingredient preparations mean preparations which contain a predetermined amount of active substance in separate preparation units which can be handled individually.
An active ingredient for the purpose of this invention may be understood to be, for exam le, a medicinal substance, an insecticide, a pesticide, a reagent etc.
If an active substance means, for example, a medical active ingredient, such single-dose pharmaceutical forms are, for example, tablets, capsules, suppositories or transdermal therapeutic systems (TTS) .
Non-single-dose pharmaceutical forms would be, for example, sprays, syrups, ointments and drops, with which the actual dosage takes place only immediately before use.
In single-dose active ingredient preparations, the active ingredient is to be processed in an appropriate amount together with any excipients necessary to give the active ingredient preparations ready for use. This technology can be regarded as mature for the production of tablets and capsules. Modern tablet presses and capsule-filling machines guarantee a high"production rate and very accurate metering in the range 95-105% of the specification.
Transdermal therapeutic systems are still a relatively recent pharmaceutical form which is used externally in the form of a plaster 0:0. the skin and delivers the active ingredient through the skin to the body. Special metering techniques are used to produce these TTS, and further innovations in terms of new metering techniques are possible.
In one embodiment of these TTS, the active ingredient is contained directly in the adhesive and, during production, is metered together with the adhesive two-dimensionally onto a sheet.
This means that TTS are the only pharmaceutical form for which it is important to meter a medicinal active ingredient onto a predetermined area in a predetermined amount. Considering non-medicinal active ingredients such as, for example, insecticides, pesticides or reagents, two- dimensional preparations in the form of impregnated papers, sheets or boards have been known for a long time. However, the demands on the accuracy of metering in the area for . these applications are not great.
The present invention is based on the object of providing a method for metering active ingredients in powder form onto a predetermined are;-..
This object is achieved with use of the techniques known from the dry copying process by a method according to the features of main Claim 1.
It has emerged that this technique is capable of metering active ingredients in powder form onto an area with an accuracy sufficient for medicinal products. This is directly discernible with colour copying, in which each colour is metered separately, and major inaccuracies would result in wrong colours „ The dry copying process or- acerography functions in the manner described hereinafter.
A roll coated with a photoconductive material is provided with a positive electric charge and exposed through a suitable optical system to the original to be copied.
Through this procedure, the charge is at least partially removed wherever the conductivity of the photoconductive material increases due to the exposure.
In a next step, negatively charged coloured particles (toners) are applied to the roll, but these remain adherent only on the still charged areas of the roll in an amount depending on the size of the charge, and produce a visible image there.
Subsequently, the coloured particles (toners) are transferred to a positively charged paper or sheet and fixed there by a heat treatment.
A modern variant of the method is employed in so-called laser printers. In this case, the roll is directly exposed to a laser beam without original, and thus the image is traced under computer control directly on the roll.
Otherwise, the same technology is used for laser printers as for dry copiers .
The present invention is based on the use of these processes in order to transfer active ingredient particles, instead of the coloured pigments, to paper or, in general, sheets.
Experiments were carried out with a normal black/white copier to find the amounts of toner which can be transferred to sheet and the re x-oducibility thereof.
Coxrfmeroially available large polyester overhead sheets in the DIN A4 format are used as sheet. The original used was a dead-black sheet of paper, and the maximum degree of blackening was chosen for the copy. The results are recorded in the following table, Table 1 The results show that although only a comparatively small amount of toner was transferred, this was with an accuracy suitable for medicinal applications too.
In another experiment it was then found whether the amount can be increased by multiple metering.
The results are depicted in FIG. 1 and show that the transferred amount of toner is proportional to the number of copying procedures .
This result shows that although the amount transferred in one copying process is small, this disadvantage can, be overcome by multiple copying without the accuracy of metering suffering thereby.
The amount of toner or active ingredient transferred depends on the charged state of the copying roll and can be increased by applying a stronger charge than usual with copying machines.
If the active ingredient is metered without a special pattern it is possible to dispense entirely with the exposure step. In this case, the copying roll does not have to consist of photoconductive material.
If the metering is to take place in a pattern, the exposure step and the use of a copying roll coated with a photoconductive material, for example selenium, is necessary. The exposure can in this case take place via an original or else via a laser with computer control. The variability is, of course, greatest with computer- controlled laser exposure.
It is to be assumed that most active ingredients are colourless. From this viewpoint, it is worthwhile to admix an indicator dye to the active ingredient and excipient mixture in powder form. This dye then permits, after appropriate calibration, direct measurement by optical methods of the amount of active ingredient transferred, and automatic correction of any deviations from the specificatio .
The flat substrate onto which the active ingredient is transferred can moreover consist in principle of any materials as long as it is flexible and suitable for withstanding the fixing procedure. It is conceivable in this connection that the material will be employed in the form of sheets or will be supplied from a roll. This material is then cut into smaller pieces during further-processing and thus converted into the single-dose active ingredient preparation. An alternative possibility is for the material also to be perforated, in which case the dosage is predetermined by the perforation.
