In this case, the following dispersion can be dried. The above-mentioned dispersion is separated from the hydrolysis reaction solution obtained by the hydrolysis treatment to separate the solid components including the hydrolyzed cellulose-based substance, and additionally make It is prepared by dispersing it in a suitable medium. In addition, glucose or sorbitol may be added to the cellulose dispersion so that the content of glucose and sorbitol in the cellulose composition falls within a specific range, and the cellulose dispersion may be mixed and dried. In addition, when the hydrolyzed solution is directly formed into a cellulose dispersion in this state, the dispersion may be directly dried.

The so-called natural cellulose-based substances can be plant or animal, for example, fibrous substances derived from natural substances containing cellulose such as wood, bamboo, cotton, ramie, sea squirt, bagasse, kenaf, and bacterial cellulose. It preferably has a cellulose I type crystal structure. As a raw material, one of the above-mentioned natural cellulose-based substances may be used, or a mixture of two or more may be used. In addition, it is preferable to use refined pulp. The method for refining the pulp is not particularly limited, and any pulp such as dissolving pulp, kraft pulp, and NBKP (Needle Bleached Kraft Pulp) pulp can be used.

In the above-mentioned production method, the medium used when dispersing the solid components containing natural cellulose-based substances in an appropriate medium is preferably water.

Examples of organic solvents include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, butanol, 2-methylbutanol, and benzyl alcohol; hydrocarbons such as pentane, hexane, heptane, and cyclohexane; acetone, Ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone. In particular, organic solvents are preferably used by users of pharmaceuticals, and examples of such organic solvents include those classified as solvents in the "Medicine Additives Reference 2016" (issued by Yakuji Daily Co., Ltd.). Water and organic solvent may be used alone, or two or more of them may be used in combination, or one medium may be temporarily used to disperse the medium and then the medium may be removed and dispersed in a different medium.

For example, pulp fibers with an average width of 2 μm or more and 30 μm or less, and an average thickness of 0.5 μm or more and 5 μm or less are put in hydrochloric acid of 0.01% by mass or more and 1.0% by mass or less under pressure at 70°C or more and 140°C or more. Under the temperature below ℃, while rotating the mixer, the hydrolysis is carried out. The progress of the hydrolysis can be controlled by adjusting the motor power (P: unit W) and the stirring capacity (L: unit L) of the mixer. For example, the average particle diameter of the finally obtained cellulose particles can be controlled to 200 μm or less by adjusting P/V expressed by the following formula.

P/V(W/L)=[Actual power of the blender motor (W)]/[Stirring capacity (L)]

The drying method when drying the cellulose aqueous dispersion to obtain a cellulose composition is not particularly limited.

The drying method of the granulated material can also use any method of hot air heating type (shed drying, vacuum drying, fluidized bed drying), thermal conductivity type (pan type, shelf box type, tumbler type) or freeze drying. In the hot air heating type, the hot air is in direct contact with the additives, and the evaporated moisture is removed at the same time. In the thermally conductive type, the additives are heated indirectly through the thermally conductive wall. In freeze-drying, the additives are previously frozen at -10°C or higher and 40°C or lower, and then ^{heated under high vacuum (1.3×10 -5} MPa or higher and 2.6×10 ^-4 MPa or lower) to sublimate water And remove it. [Example]

Hereinafter, the present embodiment will be described in detail with examples and comparative examples, but the present embodiment is not limited to this.

In addition, when the sample contains a large amount of water, the moisture content is pre-dried to about 3.5% by mass or more and 4.5% by mass or less, and then various physical properties are measured.

<Analysis method of cellulose composition composition> [Analysis 1] (Method for measuring the content of water soluble matter in cellulose composition) With reference to the method of Purity Test (2) of Crystalline Cellulose in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia of the 17th Revision, the content of water-soluble matter in the cellulose composition was determined in the following order. To 5.0 g of the cellulose composition, 80 mL of purified water was added, and the mixture was shaken and mixed for 10 minutes. After that, the cellulose composition-containing solution was suction filtered using filter paper for quantitative analysis (5 types C). After the filtrate was evaporated to dryness in a beaker of known mass in a non-scorching manner, it was dried at 105°C for 1 hour, and placed in a desiccator to cool to obtain a residue. After that, the mass of the obtained residue is weighed to obtain the mass of the residue. Each powder was measured twice, and the average value was adopted. In addition, the test performed using only 80 mL of purified water without adding 5.0 g of the cellulose composition in the above operation is set as a blank test, and the amount of water solubles detected in the blank test is obtained from the measured value minus the amount of water solubles detected in the blank test The value obtained. This value is rounded to the second decimal place and used as the measured value of the amount of water soluble matter. The amount of water soluble matter determined by this test method is the amount of water soluble matter contained in 5 g of the cellulose composition.

[Analysis 2] (Determination of the content of sugars (glucose, sorbitol, cellobiose) in the cellulose composition) Add 10 mL of 50% (v/v) acetonitrile aqueous solution to the total amount of dry matter obtained in "Analysis 1" above to redissolve, and filter with a filter (0.20 μm) and use LC /MS measures the content of glucose, sorbitol and cellobiose. The measurement conditions of the LC/MS measurement are as follows. Use a precision balance for the preparation and dilution of the measurement solution, and use the weight to obtain the sample concentration and dilution rate. In addition, when measuring the content of glucose, sorbitol, and cellobiose, glucose, sorbitol, and cellobiose were analyzed by LC/MS on a solution of known concentration prepared using commercially available products, and the results The retention time corresponding to sugar and the peak area of the m/z ion chromatogram were used to create a calibration curve (sample concentration-peak area). Using this calibration curve, the content of each sugar in the water-soluble substance (5 g of the cellulose composition) was determined. Furthermore, the content of each sugar is recorded as the value obtained by rounding to the second decimal place.

Use the vertical axis: the square of the mass (g ² ), the horizontal axis: the measurement time (the elapsed time after the start of water absorption) (s) the linear area of the water absorption curve (the area between 1/3 to 2/3 of the saturation of water absorption) The water absorption curve is approximated by a straight line, and the slope of the approximate straight line is obtained as the coefficient of permeability (g ² /s).

[Properties 2] (The average particle size) Using a laser diffraction particle size distribution meter (LA-950 V2 (trade name), manufactured by Horiba Manufacturing Co., Ltd.), in dry measurement mode with compressed air pressure of 0.10 MPa, feeder speed 160, feeder initial velocity coefficient 1.2, and refractive index 1.51 is measured. The 50% cumulative volume of particles obtained by the measurement is taken as the average particle diameter (μm) of the cellulose composition.

[Properties 3] (Loose bulk density) For the measurement, a cellulose composition adjusted to a moisture content of 3.5% by mass or more and 4.5% by mass or less was used. When the moisture content of the cellulose composition is less than 3.5% by mass, the cellulose composition is adjusted to absorb moisture using a constant temperature and humidity machine or the like. When it exceeds 4.5% by mass, a hot air oven is used to uniformly supply hot air at 60° C. to the cellulose composition to adjust the moisture content within the range. The bulk density of the cellulosic composition was measured using Scott Volumeter (model ASTM B-329-85, manufactured by Tsutsui Rikaki Instruments), and the cellulosic composition was filled into a 25 mL cylinder through a screen (mesh 1 mm) In a metal container. Scrape the cellulose composition placed in a 25 mL cylindrical metal container, and divide the mass (g) of the cellulose composition placed in the container by 25 mL to obtain the bulk density (g/mL).

The moisture content of the cellulose composition is adjusted so that it falls within this range using the method described in "Properties 3". The compact bulk density (compact apparent specific gravity) (g/mL) was calculated using a powder physical property measuring machine (PT-R, manufactured by Hosokawa Micron). The mesh of the sieve used is 710 μm, and the funnel is made of metal (antistatic spray coating) with an inner diameter of 0.8 cm. Implemented under the condition that VIBRATION is 2.0 (power supply: AC100 V, 60 Hz).

[Properties 5] (Compression ratio) The compressibility of each cellulose composition was calculated by the formula shown below.

Compression rate (%)=([compact bulk density]－[loose bulk density])/[compact bulk density]×100

Use image processing analysis system software (Image HyperII, manufactured by DigiMo) to analyze the captured images in the following order to determine the aspect ratio of the particles (the ratio of the long diameter to the short diameter; L/D). Measure at least 50 particles and find the average value.

(1) Sequence 1: Binary processing The image taken by the microscope is input into the analysis software in monochrome, and the scale of the image is set using the distance between two points. Then, use the binarization process to select the "Otsu Method" to set the threshold. The optimal threshold value varies depending on the image. The threshold value is selected by comparing it with the original image and matching the shape of the original particle as much as possible.

(2) Sequence 2: Binary manual correction Compare with the original image taken, delete particles that overlap each other, particles that deviate from the screen, particles that are not clear and have blurred outlines, and other particles that cannot obtain proper measurement results, and exclude them from the measurement object.

(3) Sequence 3: Fill the hole In the "Hole Filling" mode, select "8" for "Nearby" to execute "Hole Filling". Then, again use the "two-value image manual correction" to compare with the original image to confirm whether it can be corrected normally. In the case of failure to correct normally, perform manual correction again.

(4) Sequence 4: Image measurement Set the number of deleted pixels to "100", select "8" for "Nearby" and execute "Image measurement". Display the measurement results of "Long Diameter" and "Short Diameter" on the computer for each measured particle. The value obtained by dividing the "long diameter" by the "short diameter" is used as the aspect ratio.

＜Evaluation method of tablets＞ Orally disintegrating tablets (OD tablets) and tablets were prepared using the methods shown below, and various evaluations were performed.

[Production of OD Ingot] Put the formula powder shown below into a polyethylene bag and shake and mix for 1 minute. Next, the mixed powder was sieved with a sieve of 710 μm, and then a lubricant (sodium stearyl fumarate) was added so as to be 1% by mass relative to the total mass of the OD ingot, and mixed for 30 seconds. Then, the mixed powder was tableted using a rotary tableting machine (manufactured by Kikusui Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Clean Press Collect 12HUK, 12 pestles, turntable 54 rpm) to obtain a Φ8 mm-12R 200 mg tablet. The tableting pressure is appropriately set so that the tablet hardness becomes 80 N or more and 90 N or less.

(formula) Mannitol for direct hitting (Mannogem EZ, manufactured by Asahi Kasei): 70% by mass Partially gelatinized starch (PCS, PC-10, manufactured by Asahi Kasei): 10% by mass Croscarmellose sodium (Kiccolate ND-200, manufactured by Asahi Kasei): 5 mass% Cellulose composition: 15% by mass

Furthermore, the content of each component in the above formula is the ratio of the above component to the total mass.

[Evaluation 1] (hardness) For each OD tablet, the hardness was measured with a hardness meter (DR. SCHLEUNIGER Tablet Tester 8M) after 20 hours or more and 48 hours or less immediately after the tablet was punched. The average value of each pressed 5 tablets is taken as the hardness (N) of the tablets.

[Evaluation 2] (Time to disintegrate in the mouth) The oral disintegration time was measured using an oral disintegration tablet tester (manufactured by Toyama Industrial Co., Ltd., model ODT-101). Under the conditions of test solution: water (37±1℃), hammer diameter: ϕ20 mm, hammer mass: 20 g, rotation speed: 140 rpm, OD ingot thickness: 4.0 mm, place the OD ingot close to the center of the sample fixing frame Set the left end of the hole, and measure the disintegration time. The average value of 6 tablets was taken as the oral disintegration time of OD tablets.

[Evaluation 3] (Core residue) The core residue of OD tablets was evaluated using an oral disintegration tablet testing machine. First, the oral cavity disintegration time described in "Evaluation 2" was measured, and the oral cavity disintegration time was obtained. Then, in order to evaluate the core residue of the OD tablet, stop the disintegration test machine within "75% of the obtained intraoral disintegration time" after the start of the disintegration time of the OD tablet, and confirm whether there is residue There are hard pieces of OD ingots. The core residue was evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria. The test was carried out 3 times, and the (+) judgement was set as (+) if there were 2 or more times.

(Evaluation criteria) (+) Those with hard fragments of OD ingots (-) No hard fragments of OD ingots remain

[Preparation of tablets for storage stability test] Use a static pressure tableting machine (pressing 7 kN, holding time 10 seconds) to tablet the powder mixed with cellulose composition: aminophylline = 1:1 (parts by mass) in a polyethylene bag, Ingots ϕ 11.3 mm, 500 mg flat tablets.

[Evaluation 4] (Storage stability) The reactivity of the cellulose composition with the drug was confirmed according to the whiteness change of the tablet immediately after the tablet and the tablet after storage. For the tablets obtained by the above-mentioned production method, immediately after the tablets are shot, use a spectrophotometer (SE-2000, manufactured by Nippon Denshoku Industry Co., Ltd.) to determine the brightness (L) and chroma (green to red) (a) , Saturation (blue to yellow) (b) value. Then, the whiteness was calculated using the following formula.

Whiteness=100－[(100－L) ² ＋a ² ＋b ² ] ^0.5

In addition, the tablets obtained from the tableting were put into a glass bottle and sealed, and stored in a constant temperature and humidity machine set at a temperature of 40°C and a humidity of 75%RH for 1 month. After storage, a spectrophotometer was also used. Measure the values of L, a, and b, and use the above formula to calculate the whiteness after the storage stability test.

The whiteness change of the tablets immediately after the tableting (before storage) and after the storage stability test (after storage) is calculated using the following formula.

Whiteness change = whiteness (before storage)-whiteness (after storage)

Furthermore, if the absolute value of the whiteness change exceeds 10%, the degree of the color change can be visually recognized. Therefore, the absolute value of the whiteness change is 10% or less as having good storage stability.
