To investigate the in vitro release behavior of benzoyl peroxide gel using a diffusion cell method, and to obtain release profiles with subsequent kinetic model fitting.
The method was established with Franz diffusion cell. The PEG400-ethanol-water (25∶25∶50) is selected as receiving medium. The nylon membrane with 0.45 μm is used as the artificial membrane. The release amount was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The release data were fitted to zero-order, first-order, Korsmeyer-Peppas, and Higuchi models to identify the optimal release model.
An in vitro release testing method for benzoyl peroxide gel was successfully established. The release data of benzoyl peroxide were best fitted by the zero-order kinetic model, whereas the release data of benzoic acid were best described by the Higuchi model.
The established in vitro release method is suitable for evaluating the release characteristics of benzoyl peroxide gel and provides a useful reference for the quality assessment of topical formulations containing poorly soluble drugs.
