Ethyl cellulose is a non-toxic, physiologicallyinert, and stable hydrophobic polymer. It is widely used in the preparation ofsustained release matrices for drug delivery systems.
Application
Ethyl cellulose can be used:
To prepare polymeric microcapsules of Alachlor and Metolachlor to study their controlled-release properties.
As a core matrix to synthesize biphasic drug release nanofibers.
To prepare wax-based solid dispersion pellets with excellent floating and sustained-release ability.
Novel hot electron-emitting working electrodes and conventional counter electrodes were created by screen printing. Thus, low-cost disposable electrode chips for bioaffinity assays were produced to replace our older expensive electrode chips manufactured by manufacturing techniques of electronics from silicon or

Ethanol ablation, the injection of ethanol to induce necrosis, was originally used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma, with survival rates comparable to surgery. However, efficacy is limited due to leakage into surrounding tissue. To reduce leakage, we previously reported incorporating ethyl
Production of drug nanoparticles is an effective strategy to enhance solubility and oral absorption of water-insoluble drugs. The handling of drug nanoparticles has been an important issue in drug formulation because nanoparticles easily aggregate each other and redispersion of these

Ethylcellulose (EC) based microencapsulated drug delivery systems are being extensively studied throughout the world for achieving extended drug release and protecting the core substance from degradation. The in vitro evaluation of EC microcapsules have elucidated that their particle characteristics are
