The interactions between bendroflumethiazide (BFTZ) and human serum albumin (HSA) have been studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. Binding constants for drug attachment to the various binding sites of HSA have been measured at different temperatures in physiological buffer solution. The effect of metal ions on BFTZ interaction with HSA was also investigated. The thermodynamic parameters, DeltaH and DeltaS, have been calculated to be 49.28kJmol(-1)>0, and 258.83Jmol(-1)K(-1)>0, respectively. The distance between HSA and BFTZ, r, was determined to be 1.47nm based on Förster's non-radiative energy transfer theory. The experimental results reveal that BFTZ has a strong ability to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching mechanism. Furthermore, the binding constants between BFTZ and HSA are remarkably independent of temperature, and decrease in the presence of various ions, usually by about 30-55%. Hydrophobic interaction occurs between BFTZ and the sub-domain II A of HSA.

The physicochemical properties of co-spray dried bendroflumethiazide (BFMT)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000 composites were investigated. The co-spray dried composites produced from all BFMT/polymer solutions were amorphous. BFMT/PEG 4000 10 and 20% systems consisted of smooth spherical particles approximately 0.5-4mm in diameter. Spray drying resulted in no significant production of the main BFMT degradant, 5-trifluoromethyl-2,4-disulphamoylaniline (TFSA), and for composites consisting of 90% PEG 4000 by weight of total solids, spray drying appeared a superior method of production than the melt method which resulted in significant BFMT degradation. All BFMT/PEG compressed discs showed initial increased release of BFMT compared to discs of micronised BFMT alone, with the spray dried BFMT/PEG 4000 10% system showing initial rates two to three times that of BFMT alone. The physical stability of amorphous BFMT was reduced on inclusion of PEG 4000, recrystallisation occurring more quickly with increasing amount of PEG 4000 in the composites. PEG in the co-spray dried systems appeared to degrade on storage and recrystallised samples failed to show the presence of PEG by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) or GPC. DSC results were consistent with BFMT/PEG forming a eutectic combination rather than a monotectic system.
