PG - 1032-1043 LID - 10.1007/s13346-020-00730-7 [doi] AB - The study focuses on the in vitro and in vivo evaluation of the developed gentamicin sulphate (GS)-loaded poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanoparticle (PNP)-based pullulan film (PNP-F). Sterilization being an essential pre-requisite for the dosage form was carried out using ethylene oxide. Post-sterilization, PNP-F was evaluated for mechanical properties, percentage drug loading, antimicrobial effectiveness study, test for sterility and in vitro dissolution study using Strat-M(R) membrane. In vitro dissolution study revealed that GS gradually released from PNP-F and the highest cumulative percentage drug release was found to be 86.76 +/- 0.03% at 192 h. Wound healing assay was performed to study the effect of PNP-F over migratory potential of dermal fibroblast cells (NIH-3T3) in the presence of micro-organisms, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) and Staphylococcus aureus (SA). PNP-F inhibited the growth of PA and SA, allowing the growth of fibroblast cells indicating its suitability for application. In vivo study of surgical site was performed by superficial incision model in Wistar rats. Measurement of in vivo incision healing confirmed faster wound healing in the incision which received PNP-F compared to marketed cream containing GS. Graphical abstract.
