ABSTRACT
The present study explored the correlation between the hydrodynamic size(i.e., hydrated particle size) and the surface component distribution of spray-dried powder based on the binary system model of berberine hydrochloride and dextran. A variety of mixture solutions containing substances of different proportions were prepared, and the hydrated particle sizes of the solutions were measured by laser light scattering technique. Then the effects of molecular weight and mixing proportion on the particle size were analyzed. After the solutions were spray-dried, the surface components of spray-dried powder were determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The changes of hydrated particle size of the two substances in different solutions were measured with the altered solution environments, and the distribution of surface components after spray-drying was observed. The results of particle size measurement showed that different solution environments would change the hydrodynamic size of substances. Specifically, the particle size of berberine hydrochloride increased with the increase in ionic strength and solution pH, while the particle size of dextran decreased with the increase in ionic strength and increased with the increase in solution pH. The results of surface components of the spray-dried powder indicated that berberine hydrochloride was prone to accumulate on the surface of particles during spray-drying because of its large hydrodynamic size. Therefore, hydrodynamic size is considered an important factor affecting the surface component distribution of spray-dried powder. As revealed by scanning electron microscopy of the particle morphology of spray-dried powder, the particles of berberine hydrochloride spray-dried powder were irregularly elliptic, and the particles of dextran and mixture spray-dried powders were irregularly spherical with the shrunken surface. Finally, the FT4 powder rheometer and DVS instrument were used to determine the stability, adhesion, and hygroscopicity of the powder. The results showed that when berberine hydrochloride was enriched on the surface, the adhesion of the mixture increased and the fluidity became worse, but the hygroscopicity was improved to a certain extent. In addition, as found by hygroscopic kinetic curve fitting of spray-dried powder, the hygroscopic behaviors of all spray-dried powder conformed to the double exponential function.
