Oil soluble actives can be delivered in soft capsule but the costs involved are higher than in a tablet. Our goal is to use electrostatic spray drying as a new tool to create a solid dispersion of an oil soluble model drug (Vitamin D3) and to deliver it in a oral disintegrating tablet (ODT). PURPOSE Solid dispersions are an efficient means for improving the dissolution rate and hence the bioavailability of a large range of hydrophobic drugs. Oil soluble actives can be delivered in soft capsule but the costs involved are higher than in a tablet. Our goal is to use electrostatic spray drying as a new tool to create a solid dispersion of an oil soluble model drug (Vitamin D3) and to deliver it in a oral disintegrating tablet (ODT). METHODS Vitamin D3 ( Vit.D3) solubilized in corn oil at 1million IU/g and a viscosity of 50cp at 22°C (Rapid Visco Analyzer by Perten Instruments) was incorporated in an oil in water emulsion using a pea maltodextrin with a DE17 (Kleptose Linecaps ® ) as carrier and sodium octenyl succinate starch ( Cleargum CO01 ® ) as a surfactant. A stable o/w emulsion of Vitamin D3 / Kleptose Linecaps ® / Cleargum CO01 was prepared by high speed homogenization (using IKA mixer followed by high pressure homogenization. The resulting emulsion was atomized through the electrostatic spray nozzle with atomizing gas pressure at 25 psi into PolarDry’s chamber ( Figure 1). The electrostatic nozzle was loaded with 20 kilo-volt charge. Inside the drying chamber, drying gas (90°C) was delivered at 25 scfm to support water evaporation. In order to minimize oxidation ( keep oxygen level below 5%) the drying gas is a mixture of air and nitrogen gas (Table 1). CONCLUSIONS Vit D3 o/w emulsion (formulated with pea maltodextrin with a DE17 (Kleptose Linecaps®) as carrier and sodium octenyl succinate starch ( Cleargum CO01®) as a surfactant) was successfully converted by electrostatic spray drying in a solid dispersion with excellent flowability and compressibility properties. ODT with very good tabletability properties were made at 100IU and 10000 IU Vid D3.

1.Using electrostatic spray drying we got a solid dispersion of 212,000IU/g Vitamin D3 with a narrow particle size distribution of the primaryparticles and a very good flow of the agglomerated powder in order tocompress it ( Table 2) .2.Powder characterization of Vit. D3 electrostatic spray dried soliddispersion parameters ( Bulk and tapped density, Carr’s index , water content) are depicted in Table 2. 2.Primary particle size distribution was measured dynamic lightscattering Malvern Mastersizer 2000 ) as depicted in Table 2. 3. The agglomerated primary particle morphology was analyzed by SEM(scanning electron microscopy) as in Figure 2.4. DSC (differential scanning calorimetry evaluation was carried out on2950 TA instrument, Delaware USA) using Universal analysis 2000 software is demonstrating that Vit D3 is fully encapsulated in the primary particles of solid dispersion by electrostatic spray dried (Figure 3)
