## Abstract Chitosan hydrogels have been investigated as potential vehicles for targeted drug delivery. The gels were permanently crosslinked with conventional crosslinking agent, glutaraldehyde and the naturally occurring nonβtoxic crosslinking agent genipin in both the monomer and polymerised sta

Albendazole, a drug for the treatment of gastrointestinal nematode infection, is variably and erratically absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration. The present study was aimed at developing matrix tablets of albendazole using guar gum as carrier for colon targeting in order
The purpose of the study was to (i) prepare the chitosan/Kollicoat SR 30D film-coated pellets for colonic drug delivery, and (ii) evaluate the colonic delivery and efficacy of these coated pellets in the rat. The pellets were coated to different film thickness with chitosan/Kollicoat SR 30D formulat
The main aim of this research was to develop and evaluate a multiparticulate system of Ac-poly(amidoamine)(PAMAM)(G4)-chitosan (CS) hydrogels exploiting pH-sensitive and specific biodegradability properties for colon-targeted delivery of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA). All formulations were evaluated
