Description
Summary:In periodontitis case, clinician struggles against anaerobic bacterial infection as well as progressive alveolar destruction. Topical application of drugs becomes intricate because of periodontal tissue anatomy. It is known from the previous research that carbonated apatite is a potential candidate for drug carrier. This aim of this research was to investigate the influence of CHA in gelatin-CHA to metronidazole loading capacity to further preparing dual function strip as a scaffold and delivery system. Gelatin-CHA was prepared in 7 different compositions and notified as CHA-gelatin film in the next text. Each films was then prepared in 10 mg weight. On the other hand, metronidazole in 0.1% (b/v) solution was used by dissolving metronidazole into PBS pH 7,4. The film was immersed into metronidazole solution for 24 hours in 37oC and taken out after certain periodes. The film loaded with metronidazole solution was diluted 200 times with PBS. Diluted solution was measured by UV-vis spectrophotometer in 319 nm. Loading percentage of each films was analyzed with one-way ANOVA, continued with Post Hoc LSD. The result showed that there is effeect of different gelatin-CHA compositions towards metronidazole loading percentage. Metronidazole loading percentage increased significantly (p>0.5) parallel with the increased concentration of CHA in the film. The CHA-6 film was found to have the highest metronidazole loading percentage. It is concluded that Gelatin-CHA film is potential for drug vehicle materials.
