Selection of the optimal gel base of the wound healing agent by evaluating the mucoadhesive properties

Abstract
When developing wound healing agents, it is necessary to take into account the strength of mucoadhesion and the time of their retention at the application site, since these properties determine the release time of the drug and the effectiveness of the drug. Goal. Selection of a gel base with high rates of mucoadhesion. Materials and methods. 5 model samples of gels made using potentially promising gelling agents with a high degree of mucoadhesion were selected as objects of research: chitosan, sodium alginate, carbopol, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose. To study mucoadhesion, the separation force of gel compositions and the retention time at the application site were determined. Results. As a result of the conducted research, a composition was selected that is able to maintain its structure longer and remain at the application site, ensuring a long-term release of the active component. Conclusion. In the course of the conducted research, the choice of a promising basis for creating a wound-healing gel was substantiated. Based on the data obtained, carbopol was selected as the optimal gel-forming agent.
