Buffer compatibility with media

Deliverables:

• Define media shelf life time with the new buffers

• Project write up in the project report

pH, ST, BC, PCS

• Consider the following properties
• pH
• ST
• BC
• PCS
• UV
• Evaluate the condition of the equipment needed for the experiments

Plan the media shelf life assessment

• Investigate the Lukas paper
• Time: 48H stored + 2h usage as a maximum storage and use time

Formulate buffers

Deliverables:

• Update the buffer database with the accurate formulations
• Develop SOP's for the preparation of the buffers
• Write up the results in the Project report

Define buffer formulations

Buffer compatibility with media (precipitation only)

• Assess if there is any issue when mixing the buffer with the appropriate biorelevant media

Buffer compatibility with solvents

• Compatibility with common solvetns
• Acetonitrile
• Methanol
• THF

• Check for precipitation issues
• At which ratio do the salts from the buffers start to precipitate?

UV absorption

• Using the spectophotometer perform a UV spectrum measurement
• Define the UV cutoff of each buffer
• Quickly investigate the degradation under increased temperature and the effect it has on the UV absortion of the different buffers
• Do an accelarated stability study to "kill" maleate b uffer

Adjust and reformulate

Assess temperature and media variation

• Investigate the temperature effect over the pH value
• Evaluate temperature at 22C and 37C
• Aim for the perfect pH at 37C

Test pH, Buffer capacity

• Starting with the buffer database formulations prepare the buffers and test the relevant properties

Define tests to validate buffer system

Solubility studies:

• We will perform these to assess the effect the different buffers have in a partially water soluble drug at that particular pH
• These tests can be done in all the buffers listed
• Equilibrium solubility from USP literature as a starter. We can adjust this method according to our needs.

USP 1236

Dissolution studies

• We will run these tests to evaluate the effect the different buffer versions have on a specific product dissolution.
• Monstly to compare the original V2 versions against the Biorelevant V2 versions
• In house method - 1-step method

USP 1092

List needed analytical techniques

List THE ANLYTICAL TECHNIQUES

make sure we have SOP's

• Buffer capacity
• Surface Tension
• Particle Size and Polydispersity Index
• pH

Check in house system suitability

• Will we be able to prepare and manufacture a concentrate?

• What is the price of the individual components?

• Is there any available market forms?

Define buffer standard properties

Priority properties

Given the main objective is to swap the current V2 buffers with new ones that allow us to prepare and sell a concentrate as part of a kit, the following points are to be taken in account:

• Maintain the salt content the same as the original buffer version. For example, for FaSSIF V2 is 4.01g/l and for our new version it should the 4.01g/l as well

• Maintain the buffer capacity the same. E.g. for FaSSIF V2 is 10 mmol/(pH.L)

• Osmolarity around the same value as the original buffers or isotonicity (280 - 290 mOsm/L). Given this property is 3rd priority we will need the check and evaluate. It will probably be slightly different between versions

Decide which buffers we need

• Buffer database in place

• Mayu work will be limited to the pH's of 5.8 and 6.5
• FESSIF V2
• FESSIF V2 Biorelevant (Citrate version)
• FeSSIF V2 Biorelevant (Phosphate version)
• FaSSIF V2
• FaSSIF V2 Biorelevant (Phosphate version)

• This will include the original buffers, the adjusted Biorelevant buffers and the USP version at the same pH

• Investigate buffer species properties:
• Physico chemical properties
• UV response
• Temperature stability
• Oxidation potential

• On the point above, do a proper theoretical search about these buffers
