Zusammenfassung
Assessing the physical state of a low-dose active compound in a solid lipid or polymer matrix is analytically challenging, especially if the matrix exhibits some crystallinity. The aim of this study was first to compare the ability of current methods to detect the presence of a crystalline model compound in lipid matrices. Subsequently, a new technique was introduced and evaluated because of sensitivity issues that were encountered with current methods. The new technique is a flow-through version of cross-polarized imaging in transmission mode. The tested lipid-based solid dispersions (SDs) consisted of β-carotene (BC) as a model compound, and of Gelucire 50/13 or Geleol mono- and diglycerides as lipid matrices. The solid dispersions were analyzed by (hyper) differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), and microscopic techniques including atomic force microscopy (AFM). DSC and XRPD could analyze crystalline BC at concentrations as low as 3% (w/w) in the formulations. However, with microscopic techniques crystalline particles were detected at significantly lower concentrations of even 0.5% (w/w) BC. A flow-through cross-polarized imaging technique was introduced that combines the advantage of analyzing a larger sample size with high sensitivity of microscopy. Crystals were detected easily in samples containing even less than 0.2% (w/w) BC. Moreover, the new tool enabled approximation of the kinetic BC solubility in the crystalline lipid matrices. As a conclusion, the flow-through cross-polarized imaging technique has the potential to become an indispensable tool for characterizing low-dose crystalline compounds in a lipid or polymer matrix of solid dispersions.
