    Abstract:
    Binary systems of ketoprofen with native crystalline beta-cyclodextrin and amorphous statistically substituted methyl-beta-cyclodextrin were investigated for both solid phase characterization (Differential Scanning Calorimetry, powder X-ray diffraction, Infrared Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy) and dissolution properties (dispersed amount and rotating disc methods). Grinding, kneading, sealed-heating and colyophilization of equimolar combinations of ketoprofen with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, as well as colyophilization of analogous combinations with beta-cyclodextrin, led to amorphous products. Crystalline drug, instead, was still clearly detectable in coground, kneaded and sealed-heated products with beta-cyclodextrin. Both the preparation method, and even more the nature of the carrier, played an important role in the performance of the system. Colyophilized and sealed-heated products showed the best dissolution properties. However, independently of the preparation technique, all combinations with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin yield better performances than the corresponding ones with the beta-cyclodextrin. Moreover, intrinsic dissolution rate of ketoprofen from simple physical mixture with the beta-cyclodextrin derivative was even five-fold higher than that from the best product with the parent beta-cyclodextrin.
