Development of an in vitro release test for the oral delivery of simvastatin-loaded alginate-chitosan microspheres

Development of an in vitro release test for the oral delivery of simvastatin-loaded alginate-chitosan microspheres

Existing guidelines for drug release testing are mainly designed for conventional oral and transdermal dosage forms. While some attempts have been made to extend these guidelines to novel drug delivery systems (DDS), they often fail to consider the distinct characteristics that set these systems apa...
