大黃酚-羥丙基-β-環(huán)糊精包合物的制備及藥代動(dòng)力學(xué)研究

大黃酚—羥丙基-β-環(huán)糊精包合物的制備及藥代動(dòng)力學(xué)研究摘要：

目的：本研究旨在制備大黃酚—羥丙基-β-環(huán)糊精包合物，并探究其藥代動(dòng)力學(xué)特性。

方法：采用溶劑輔助熱力學(xué)法制備大黃酚—羥丙基-β-環(huán)糊精包合物，并通過(guò)XRD、FTIR、TG等手段對(duì)其進(jìn)行表征。將包合物與一般大黃酚進(jìn)行體外藥代動(dòng)力學(xué)研究，比較兩者在自然介質(zhì)中的溶解性、血清蛋白結(jié)合率、血漿半衰期等參數(shù)。

結(jié)果：制備的大黃酚—羥丙基-β-環(huán)糊精包合物具有明顯的結(jié)晶性和分散性。與一般大黃酚相比，其溶解性大幅提高，血清蛋白結(jié)合率顯著降低，血漿半衰期延長(zhǎng)。

結(jié)論：大黃酚—羥丙基-β-環(huán)糊精包合物能夠顯著提高大黃酚的溶解性，降低其蛋白結(jié)合率，具有良好的生物利用度和藥效，可作為一種潛在的疏通膽道藥物。
