To develop a flow-through cell method for the dissolution test of omega-3-acid ethyl ester 90 soft capsules and compare the dissolution behaviors from different manufacturers.
The medium (surfactant and its concentration, pH, dosage of pepsin), flow rate and system mode (closed versus open) were investigated. The samples were collected at the specified time and determined by HPLC. The similarity of the dissolution curves between generic drugs and reference listed drug was evaluated by similarity factor (f2).
A closed-loop mode of flow-through cell apparatus was employed, with 0.01 mol·L-1 hydrochloric acid solution containing 4.0% Triton X-100 as the dissolution medium, and the flow rate was 2.0 mL·min-1. The dissolution curves of the samples that have passed consistency evaluation are similar to those of the reference and the samples produced by enterprise in the declaration stage are partly similar. The method has effective distinguish ability for product quality and different prescriptions.
The newly established method can be used for the quality control of omega-3-acid ethyl ester 90 soft capsules, and can provide references for further consistency evaluation and the dissolution method development of lipid-filled soft gelatin capsule (SGC).
