Quantitative rate measurement of the hydroxide driven dissolution of an enteric drug coating using atomic force microscopy
The hydroxide-driven dissolution of the polymer hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (HPMCP) in aqueous solution is studied using atomic force microscopy. The novel technique of employing the surface-averaged z-piezo voltage as a direct measure of the mean absolute surface height is described, so...
