Definitions

  • the present invention relates to slow-release vitreous systems particularly for the release of biologically active materials to an aqueous environment of use over a predetermined time period.
  • Slow-release systems are well known in the art but tend to be specialised becaused of their inherent expense.
  • Slow-release systems are for example used in the pharmaceutical industry for the administration of biologically active agents to a patient over a predetermined time span at a constant or varying rate depending upon the circumstances.
  • Other slow-release systems are known for other purposes, but all suffer from the inherent expense or lack of flexibility of the slow-release vehicle.
  • Glass is a relatively cheap material, and the glasses which are water soluble are known. Indeed phosphate glasses have been used to release inorganic substances which are thermostable since the softening point of
  • phosphate glasses is for example 400 - 500°C. These phosphate glasses have a widely varying dissolution rate depending upon the precise constitution of the watersoluble glass chosen and are hence able to transmit inorganic salts to an environment of use over a predetermined time period.
  • Low melting point water soluble glasses for example the acetate glasses have been described in The Journal of the American Ceramic Society Vol 52, No. 4 April 1969 Pages 224-225. Further nitrate glasses have been described, as such, in the Journal of The Chemical Society 1969 pages 2398 et seq. It has not however been appreciated that the combination of the low softening point of the acetate and other carboxylates and nitrate type glasses combined with their variable water solubility provides an excellent slow release vehicle for heat-sensitive substances, such as biologically active substances, to an aqueous environment of use.
  • GB-A-2,182,034 discloses a vitreous system in which organic materials are incorporated in a water soluble glass by forming a sintered porous body and filling the same with an organic material in liquid form. This disclosure teaches against incorporating organic materials directly into the glass.
  • a slow release vitreous system comprising a water soluble glass having a softening point of less
  • glass describes amorphous material derived for example from carboxylates and nitrates.
  • the active agents which can be biologically active or nonbiologically active, need be stable only to the temperature of the softening point of the glass (see Table 1) . This illustrates the advantages of these glasses: compounds with low decomposition temperatures can be safely entrapped or dissolved with little decomposition.
  • the water soluble glass is a carboxylate, nitrate, sulphate or bisulphate glass having a low softening point, e.g.
  • the glass may be selected from a compound of the formula
  • R 1 and R2 are the same or different and are selected from
  • x has a value of 1 - 3;
  • R 1 and M2 are the same or different and are selected from H, an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metals or a chemically appropriate metal such as lead or zinc.
  • R 1 and M2 are the same or different and are selected from H, an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metals or a chemically appropriate metal such as lead or zinc.
  • M 1 and M2 are lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium, lead or zinc.
  • the glass selected is made from either a single salt or a mixture of salts or a mixture of salts and acids having general formula
  • M 1 , M2, M3... are the same or different and are selected from H, alkali metals or alkaline earth metals or a chemically appropriate metal such as zinc
  • a 1, A , A3 ... are the same or different and are selected from carboxylates preferably chiral carboxylates, such as tartrates nitrate, sulphate or bisulphate; wherein a, b, c ...
  • the invention is further characterised by a method for the production of a slow-release system which method comprises;
  • the glass dissolves to release the active agent over a predetermined time period.
  • the glasses as just described may be coated with a coating material to further modify the slow-release rate of the active agent to the environment of use.
  • the shape and geometry of the water soluble glass may also be adjusted to alter the release rates.
  • the coating material as just described may be a phosphate glass or any selected polymeric material so chosen as to give a desired rate of agent release (see Table 2 below) .
  • the geometry of the system in accordance with the present invention is important. It will be appreciated that the larger the system particle, the smaller the total surface area and hence the slower the release rate in aqueous environment of use. Thus physically relatively large slow-release systems in accordance with the present invention will release the active agent to the environment of use slower than small particles. Thus the constant release rate to an environment of use can be achieved over a long time period by not only selecting the materials from which the release systems are made, but also by altering the relative particle sizes in a mixture applied to an environment of use.
  • the geometry of the slow-release system in accordance " with the present invention may be configured to adjust the output rate of the active agent to an environment of use by altering the rate at which readily soluble glass is exposed for dissolution.
  • the geometry of the slow-release system in accordance " with the present invention may be configured to adjust the output rate of the active agent to an environment of use by altering the rate at which readily soluble glass is exposed for dissolution.
  • a multi-layer system may be achieved by providing a central core of the water soluble glass in accordance with the present invention, overlaid by, for example, a coating of a phosphate glass.
  • the relative diameter of the central core which need not be uniform throughout its length, can be adjusted to provide a desired predetermined dissolution rate.
  • the active agents in accordance with the present invention may for example be pharmaceutically active agents such as hormones and amino-acids, for administration to agriculturally significant animals for example to ruminants.
  • the active agents may be any suitable pharmaceutical agent such as an antibiotic which can be administered to a patient for slow-release.
  • slow-release systems of the present invention can be provided with pheromones which can be utilized to attract specific insects to a specific site.
  • the pheromones can be specific to an insect which is a pest on a particular crop. Tomatoes for example can be cleared of insect pests in a closed tomato growing area without application of toxic materials to the plants themselves. Since pheromones are specific to insects of a particular sex as well as a particular type, it is also possible to separate males and females of a particular species by this method.
  • fertilizers are formed with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium for administration to a crop in a seed bed preferably in a single pass operation.
  • the slow-release systems in accordance with the present invention of this type may also include insecticides, fungicides, or other pesticides in general which act to protect the crop during its growing season, (about three or four months), without the necessity for regular spraying.
  • slow-release systems in accordance of this type will be incoporated into the seed bed at the same time as the seed are sown thereby providing long term protection from pest attack as well as fertilization throughout its growing period.
  • the invention is also suitable for the slow-release of descaling agents for pipes and boilers and for the slow-release of bactericidal agents to water storage systems for the prevention, for example, of Leqionella .
  • the systems in accordance with the present invention may also be utilized as wood preservatives for in situ applications.
  • Carboxylate glasses were formed by standard methods to have the following consitution as shown in Table 1.
  • a dissolution rate could be adjusted to be between 24 minutes and 70 days. Since the dissolution rate of the acetate glasses is faster than that of the phosphate glasses in general it will be noted that the slow-release system can be adjusted to release its bolus within any desired time frame. Further by altering the relative geometry of the coating and the core it is possible to release more or less active agent to the enviroment of use over a predetermined portion of the time frame.
  • the invention therefore comprehends not only a slow-release system and a method for the production thereof, but a method of administering an active agent to an environment of use, said enviroment of use being agricultural, veterinary, human or industrial.
