Nano-spray dryer is advanced instrument to produce a stable and spherical nanoparticles with high yield. In this study, econazole nitrate nanoparticles were formulated by nano-spray dryer using 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 weight ratios of drug to hydroxypropyl-betacyclodextrin and stabilizer. The prepared samples were sprayed through nozzle size of 7.0 μm using 95ºC and 45ºC as inlet temperature and outlet temperatures, respectively. The prepared nanoparticles were evaluated for process yield and percent drug loading. Furthermore, the drug nanoparticles were dispersed in isotonic buffer solution and examined for drug release and their stability at room temperature. The spray dried particles were in the nano-range (148 to 294 nm) and their yield values rang... view moreĀ»
