Study Notes
Effect of pH on Release Kinetics of Thiamethoxam from BA-CMC-Ts
- The study investigates the release kinetics of thiamethoxam from various BA-CMC-Ts formulations at different pH levels (4.0, 7.0, and 9.2).
- The release kinetics were analyzed using three models: Korsmeyer-Peppas, First Order, and Gallagher-Corrigan.
- The Korsmeyer-Peppas model (Eq.(7)) did not provide a good fit for the release data, suggesting that the release mechanism is not solely driven by Fickian diffusion.
- Similarly, the First Order kinetic model (Eq.(8)) did not fit the release data well, indicating that thiamethoxam is tightly encapsulated within the hydrogel matrix.
- The Gallagher-Corrigan equation (Eq.(9)) showed the best fit for the release data from BA-CMCs, exhibiting high R2 values and low SSR compared to the other two models.
- This suggests that the Gallagher-Corrigan model accurately describes the release kinetics of thiamethoxam from the BA-CMC-Ts formulations.
Release Profile at Different pH Conditions
- At pH 4.0, the maximum release of thiamethoxam on the 3rd day was observed in BA-CMC-5 (62.03%), followed by BA-CMC-6 (52.49%) and BA-CMC-7 (41.68%).
- At pH 7.0, BA-CMC-Ts showed a larger release of thiamethoxam, with the maximum release occurring on the 3rd day in BA-CMC-5 (79.69%), followed by BA-CMC-6 (72.91%) and BA-CMC-7 (51.61%).
- At pH 9.2, the release rate was significantly higher due to increased ion swelling pressure and possible erosion effects of the hydrogel matrix. The maximum release on the 3rd day was achieved by BA-CMC-5 (86.45%), followed by BA-CMC-6 (78.26%) and BA-CMC-7 (63.97%).
Role of BA in Release Kinetics
- Increasing the concentration of BA in the BA-CMCs matrix leads to reduced thiamethoxam release rates.
- This indicates that BA enhances the crosslinking density of the BA-CMCs, resulting in a tighter encapsulation of thiamethoxam within the matrix.
