How to calculate percentage drug release?

Albert Hsieh  Follow

Formula for determination of percentage of release of drug  from in vitro dissolution testing 
  • Concentration of drug (µg/ml)= (slope × absorbance) ± intercept
  • Amount of drug = Concentration × Dissolution bath volume × dilution factor
released mg/ ml 1000
  • Cumulative percentage = Volume of sample withdrawn (ml) × P (t – 1) + Pt
release (%) Bath volume (v), 
Where Pt = Percentage release at time t
Where P (t – 1) = Percentage release previous to‘t’

Dear Mr. Ali,
What is m in the equation of amount of drug release?

Hazem Choukaife they changed from μg to mg, that's why.

Dose means how much mg we took for drug release?

  • Amount of drug = Concentration × Dissolution bath volume × dilution factor released mg/ ml 1000
for this equation, If I use impressed dried nanoparticles in release medium. in this situation, should I add dilution factor in the equation ??

second why you divided the equation to 1000 ??
thank you

Dose is strength of tablet (Total quantity of API).

Thanks all. I have really learnt. I am hoping the dose in Mr. Kailas equation means the theoretical total quantity of active ingredient in the tablet.

First Step
Determine concentration of drug released by using formula
Y =mX +/- C
Y is absorbance, m is slope, C is intercept, X is concentration (mcg/ml)
Second Step
Calculate amount of drug released
Amount of drug released (mg)= [Concentration X Dilution factor X Volume of Dissolution medium] / 1000
Final Step
% Drug release = Amt of drug released (mg) X 100 / Dose (mg)
