Influence of surfactant-treated starch on the disintegration and dissolution of sulphadiazine tablets.
The effects of treating cassava starch with sodium lauryl sulphate and Polysorbate 80 and the method of incorporating the treated and plain starch as disintegrant on the physical properties of sulphadiazine tablets were investigated. Disintegration and dissolution rates were faster with starch in which surfactant was incorporated in dry state than with starch treated with solution of surfactant. A direct correlation was observed between the Hardness-Friability Index and T90 values. Polysorbate 80-treated starch exhibited a better dissolution profile than SLS-treated starch.
