Marcinek, Tomáš ; Ondrejček, Pavel (advisor) ; Jirásková, Johana (referee)
Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradci Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Technology Consultant: Mgr. Pavel Ondrejček, Ph.D. Student: Tomáš Marcinek Title of Thesis: The influence of the tableting speed on the compaction process The main aim of this thesis was to determine the influence of tableting speed on the compaction process of four substances. The compaction process was evaluated by three- exponential equation. The parameters of this equation describe the individual phases of compression, the precompression phase, the phase of elastic deformation and the phase of plastic deformation. Furthermore, the effect of tableting speed on the compressibility of the material was studied using the force-displacement record. Finally, the influence of tableting speed on tensile strength of the prepared tablets was evaluated. Four materials were used for the evaluation. Microcrystalline cellulose Avicel PH-102 and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate DI-CAFOS were used as model fillers. Theophylline and paracetamol were used as model drugs. The course of the compaction process was evaluated at five compaction speeds. The results of this evaluation revealed different behavior of used materials. Furthermore different influence on the compaction process by changing compaction speed was...

Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of: Pharmaceutical technology Consultant: Doc. PharmDr. Zdeňka Šklubalová, Ph.D. Student: Ondřej Damborský Title of Thesis: Flow equation of sorbitol granules with addition of magnesium stearate. The aim of this thesis is to study particulate built and consolidation properties of the granulate prepared by wet granulation of sorbitol and it's size fractions in the range of 0,2 - 0,8 mm and it's influence of adding lubricate magnesium stearate 0.5% and 1.0%. The properties were studied by the angle of repose, the three kinds of bulk density, tap density, the Hausner ratio. The granules showed adequate to good flow properties. The addition of magnesium stearate flow increases the rate through the granulate sorbitol. Mass flow rate through the orifice the conical hopper of the test depending on the particle size and hole diameter were monitored. With increasing particle size the rate of pouring decreases, while the diameter of the hole had the opposite effect. Dependence of the flow rate to the average of the opening of the hopper was modeled by a power equation Jones-Pilpel. When using the current parameters with accuracy reverse estimate of the flow rate ranged between approximately 2 - 4%.

Le, Thanh Tra ; Svačinová, Petra (advisor) ; Ondrejček, Pavel (referee)
Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of: Pharmaceutical technology Consultant: Mgr. Petra Svačinová, PhD. Student: Le Thanh Tra Title of Thesis: Evaluation of stress relaxation of mixtures of lactosum and calcii hydrogenphosphate for preparation tablets with theophylline This thesis studies viscoelastic behavior of fillers and tensile strength of tablets with theophylline. Used material are described in theoretical part: Laktosum SpheroLac 100, microcrystalline cellulose Comprecel 102, calcium hydrogenophosphate anhydrate Di-Cafos A150, calcium hydrogenophosphate dihydrate Di-Cafos D160, theophylline and magnesium stearate. Thesis also describes the stress relaxation test, methods of evaluation and it's application. Experimental part evaluates viscoelastic behavior and tensile strength through the test of stress relaxation with maximal compression force 10 kN and dwell time 180 s. The tensile strength of tablets is also evaluated. Experimental part evaluates parameters of elasticity Ai and plasticity Pi, which were obtained from the test of stress relaxation. It evaluates effect of different fillers on these parameters. The highest values were measured at mixtures E (Spherolac 100 a Comprecel 102), further at mixtures D (Spherolac 100 a Di-Cafos A150) and...
