SOUZA, C.. Liquid crystalline systems formed by monoolein and water with antimicrobial agents to buccal release. 2013. 107 f. Dissertation (Master). Pharmaceutical Sciences School of Ribeirão Preto – University of São Paulo, Ribeirão Preto, 2013. Liquid crystals are systems which are in an intermediate state between solids and liquids. Monoolein is a polar lipid capable of forming different types of lyotropic liquid crystals in aqueous environment, which can be classified into lamellar, cubic and hexagonal mesophases. Due to its ability to control drug release and its mucoadhesive properties, these systems have been considerated as potential vehicle to control drug release on buccal mucosa. Based on the knowledge that the development of caries and periodontal disease is related to the biofilm formation, it is necessary their control and prevention to maintain the buccal health. Among the available chemical agents to prevent and/or reduce biofilm formation, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) and Triclosan have been widely used. Based on these facts, the objective of this study was to develop and characterize liquid-crystalline systems formed by monoolein and water, containing antimicrobial agents with buccal applicability. The systems were developed using monoolein and water, and the antimicrobial agents evaluated were CCP, PHMB and Triclosan. The liquid-crystalline phases with and without the presence of each drug was identified by polarized light microscopy. Furthermore, it was evaluated the swelling of the systems containing the drugs studied after contact with artificial saliva; the in vitro antimicrobial activity and its release profile, as well as the residence time and ex vivo mucoadhesion strength on pig cheek mucosa. It was possible to obtain liquid-crystalline phases for all drugs, and the swelling of all systems was characterized according to secondorder kinetics. The results of release profile and antimicrobial activity in vitro to PHMB and Triclosan were favorable for buccal application, however CCP is not suitable to be released from these systems. The drug release profile from these systems was influenced by the physicochemical properties and loading of the drugs, as well as by swelling. Furthermore, the lamellar phase showed greater residence time that the cubic phase and the mucoadhesion strength average of lamellar phase was 1.02 ± 0.50 N and for cubic phase was 0.45 ± 0.10 N. Thus, the liquid crystalline systems forming by monoolein and water are an interesting vehicle with potential to control release of the PHMB and Triclosan on the buccal mucosa in order to optimize the drug effectiveness.
