Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Kralove Department of Pharmaceutical Technology Author: Jakub Tisoň Title of thesis: Evaluation of rheological properties of nasal sprays Supervisor: PharmDr. Eva Šnejdrová, Ph.D. The aim of the submitted diploma thesis was to develop a comprehensive methodology for testing the rheological and especially thixotropic properties of nasal suspensions. Characterize the original preparation Avamys® and samples of a generic preparation at various stages of the formulation by selected tests. Within the theoretical part of the work, the nasal application of drugs, nasal preparations were discussed, the basics of rheometry were summarized and the principle of relevant rheological tests was described. Flow curves were measured on a Kinexus rotary rheometer using plate-to-plate geometry and analyzed by power law. The yield stress of nasal suspensions was determined. The thixotropic properties were evaluated by the area of the hysteresis loop, and especially by the three-step thixotropy test. The conformity of selected rheological characteristics of the tested samples with the original preparation was evaluated. Key words: nasal sprays, viscosity, yield stress, thixotropy.
