Abstract

In Slovakia chlorhexidine is available in dosage forms of solutions, creams and pastes but not in the form of hydrogels, though they are modern drug forms with many positive properties. Therefore, in this article possibilities of its formulation into hydrogels are studied. In particular, two research aims were followed. The first consisted in study of an influence of surface active agents on the release of chlorhexidine dihydrochloride from chitosan hydrogels and the second one was to design a formulation of hydrogels for local delivery of chlorhexidine to the oral cavity. To this end, surfactants from the group of alkyltrimethylammonium bromides with the length of alkyl chain C6–C18 which occupy a dominant position in the indication group of antiseptics and disinficients were analyzed with intention to use them in preparation of hydrogels. Hydrogels were prepared with 2.5% (w/w) gel-forming agent chitosan. Both the active agent and surfactants were used in 0.1% (w/w) concentration. It is shown that the surface active agents with short alkyl chain are suitable for development of chlorhexidine dihydrochloride hydrogels with controlled release.

Kurzfassung

Chlorhexidine ist in der Slowakei in Form von Lösungen, Cremes und Pasten erhältlich, aber nicht in Form von Hydrogelen, obgleich es sich um moderne Arzneimittel mit vielen positiven Eigenschaften handelt. Deshalb werden in dieser Arbeit die Möglichkeiten der Herstellung in Hydrogelen untersucht. Im Einzelnen wurden zwei Forschungsziele verfolgt. Zum ersten wurde der Einfluss oberflächenaktiver Stoffe auf die Abgabe von Chlorhexidindihydrochlorid aus Chitosanhydrogelen untersucht. Zweitens sollte eine Formulierung für Hydrogele gefunden werden, die eine lokale Abgabe von Chlorhexidine in die Mundhöhle erlaubt. Zu diesem Zweck wurden Alkyltrimethylammoniumbromide mit einer Alkylkettenlänge von C6–C18, die wichtige Positionen in der Gruppe von Antiseptika und Desinfektionsmitteln besetzen, mit der Absicht untersucht, diese für die Herstellung von Hydrogelen zu benutzen. Es wurden Hydrogele mit 2,5% (w/w) des gelbildenden Wirkstoffes Chitosan hergestellt. Sowohl der aktive Wirkstoff als auch die Tenside wurden in einer Konzentration von 0,1% eingesetzt. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass Tenside mit kurzen Alkylketten für die Entwicklung von Chlorhexidindihydrochloridhydrogelen mit kontrollierter Wirkstoffabgabe gut geeignet sind.
