Emulsions and nanosuspensions for the formulation of poorly soluble drugs (paper)

Poorly soluble drugs are a challenge to drug formulation work. This book reviews the possibilities, limitations and future perspectives of o/w-emulsions. It also presents technology of nanosuspensions (DissoCubes™), explains their special dissolution properties and covers their possible applications. For dispersion techniques, it presents the theory of high pressure homogeneization and high pressure extrusion including examples of applications and size measurements in concentrated dispersions.
