Predictive in vitro Methods for Characterizing Product Performance, Case Study: Furosemide (U01)
Funding Opportunity RFA-FD-14-080 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This project follows after earlier CDER research projects in which in vitro furosemide dissolution and/or solubility data were collected in various dissolution media such as simulated gastric and intestinal fluids.In two different studies with different approaches and dissolution testing apparatus, furosemide dissolution was higher in medium containing milk and baby formula than that in standard buffer medium. This research project will explore additional methodology to characterize dissolution of furosemide (the model drug) in media con...
