Adhesion

• Bond produced by contact between a pressure- sensitive adhesive and a surface. Ability tostick, adhere or hold

• Bioadhesion is defined as an ability of amaterial to adhere to a biological tissue for anextended period of time. Attachment ofsynthetic or biological macromolecules to abiological tissue.

Muco-adhesion

• In higher organisms epithelia are covered bya protective gel layer defined as mucus. Theterm muco-adhesion refers to the special caseof bio-adhesion where the biological tissue isan epithelium covered by mucus.

• Mucus is a thin blanket covering all epitheliathat are in contact with the externalenvironment

The mucosal routes • Buccal/oral route• Nasal route• Ocular route• Vaginal route• Gastrointestinal route

• Moreover the muco-adhesive material itself canalso be a therapeutic agent for tissue protection(e.g., gastric ulcers) or lubrication (in the eye orvagina).

Reason • Drug absorption is often limited by the residence time of

the drug at the site of absorption.– In ocular delivery, for example, a drug solution is

cleared by the lacrimal fluid within a few minutesafter application.

• Therefore muco-adhesion is an important strategy inorder to prolong the mucosal residence time of drugdelivery systems.

Mucus • The function of mucus is mainly the protection

and lubrication of the underlying epithelium, butit may have additional functions dependent onthe type of the covered epithelia

• Both systemic and local delivery can beoptimized with muco-adhesive dosage forms byretaining in intimate contact with the absorptionsite or the site of action, which results in highlocal drug concentrations and a high fluxthrough the absorbing tissue.

THEORIES OF MUCOADHESION:-

16

Summary Wetting and swelling of the polymer permit intimate contact with

the biological tissue. Interpenetration of bioadhesive polymer chains and entanglement

of polymer and mucin chains. Formation of weak chemical bonds. Sufficient polymer mobility to allow spreading. Water transport followed by mucosal dehydration . The bioadhesive coated system when comes in contact with the

mucus layer, various non-specific or specific interactions occursbetween the complimentary structures and these interactions lastonly until the turnover process of mucin

the drug delivery system should release its drug contents duringthis limited adhesion time, in order for a bioadhesive system to besuccessful.

Vaginal Films

Vaginal films are polymeric drug delivery systems shaped as thin sheets,usually ranging from 220 to 240 μ m in thickness.

These systems are often square (approximately 5 cm × 5 cm), colorless,and soft, presenting a homogenous surface.

Vaginal films are produced with polymers such as polyacrylates,polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, and cellulose derivatives.
