Title: Method for evaluating the solubility of a crystalline substance in a polymer
Inventor: ZHANG GEOFF G Z
IPC: G01N33/15
Filed: 2009-04-29
Abstract: A viable strategy to enhance the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs is to use amorphous solids in place of the more commonly used crystalline solids in pharmaceutical formulations. However, amorphous solids are physically meta-stable and tend to revert back to their crystalline counterpart. An effective approach to stabilizing an amorphous drug against crystallization is to disperse it in a polymer matrix. The drug's solubility in the chosen polymer defines the upper limit of drug loading without any risk of crystallization. Measuring the solubility of a drug in a polymer has been a scientific and technological challenge because the high viscosity of polymers makes achieving solubility equilibrium difficult and because pharmaceutically important drug/polymer dispersions are glasses, which undergo structural relaxation over time. The invention provides a method based on Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) for measuring the solubility of crystalline drugs in polymeric matrices. The method relies on the detection of the dissolution endpoint of a drug/polymer mixture prepared by cryomilling.

Abstract: Suspendable interrupts are described that allow a processor to remain in an idle state for a longer period of time. Each suspendable interrupt defines a maximum delay value that specifies the maximum delay software associated with the interrupt can wait between a receipt of an interrupt signal associated with the suspendable interrupt and raising the interrupt for servicing by the software. The delay value allows suspendable interrupts to be masked when a processor is placed in the idle state if they can be dealt with at a next scheduled wake time of the processor, allowing the processor to potentially remain in the idle state for a longer period of time.
