Interaction of substituted benzoic acids with polysorbate 20 micelles.

Equilibrium solubilities of a series of substituted benzoic acids in different concentrations of polysorbate 20 at controlled pH were measured. The maintenance of pH was achieved using a pH-stat assembly. A linear relationship was found between the amount of benzoic acid solubilized and surfactant concentration. As solubilizate polarity increased, the amount solubilized also increased. Solubility data were analyzed, and the interaction between solubilizate molecules and micelles was calculated in terms of partition coefficients of ionized and unionized molecules between aqueous and micellar phases. A linear relationship between pi values (log partition coefficients) of functional groups and aqueous-micellar partition coefficient was found.

Some relations between dissolution rates and physical parameters of a drug in aqueous micellar solutions of a non-ionic surfactant.

Dissolution rates of salicylic acid from a constant surface area into a series of aqueous micellar polysorbate 20 solutions at pH 1-0 to 4-0 have been measured using two different methods; a stirred beaker and a rotating disc technique. The micellar molecular weight of polysorbate 20 has been obtained from light scattering and differential refractometry data and used with other independently determined physical data to calculate diffusion coefficients of the diffusing species. Linear multiple regression analysis was used to assess the dependence of drug dissolution rate on the diffusion coefficient and the viscosity of the dissolution medium.
