Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of tablet anti-counterfeiting technology, in particular to a tablet anti-counterfeiting method based on afterglow effect. Background Art

[0002] Existing drug anti-counterfeiting methods mainly focus on drug packaging anti-counterfeiting, query system anti-counterfeiting, and drug appearance and shape anti-counterfeiting. These methods have the following problems: packaging anti-counterfeiting is easy to imitate, consumers are not aware of the query system and the system is easy to crack, and the anti-counterfeiting of drug appearance and properties is highly subjective and difficult to quantify, so it is not applicable to all drugs. The afterglow effect is that the material can continue to emit light after being excited and then stopped. Due to its unique optical properties, high recognition, difficulty in imitation, high safety, and good stability, it has received widespread attention. At present, the afterglow effect has been studied and applied in the field of materials science, but it has not been fully developed in drug anti-counterfeiting, and drug afterglow anti-counterfeiting still focuses on traditional drug anti-counterfeiting methods, such as drug packaging anti-counterfeiting is affected by the environment and storage, and the problem of unstable luminescence performance limits its large-scale promotion and application. The edible excipient sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na) has ultra-long organic phosphorescence characteristics and exhibits a strong afterglow effect. It exhibits an inherent stimulus response to excitation wavelength and moisture, and has a large signal-to-noise ratio, which can be used for non-destructive testing of tablets. The part of achieving anti-counterfeiting effect by combining the afterglow effect with the tablet itself is still vacant. It is urgent to develop an anti-counterfeiting method focusing on the drug itself. Therefore, we proposed a tablet anti-counterfeiting method based on the afterglow effect. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention aims to address the deficiencies in the prior art, and its main purpose is to provide a tablet anti-counterfeiting method based on the afterglow effect.

The afterglow video is taken using the camera function of a mobile phone during the detection process. In a dark environment, an ultraviolet lamp is set at a distance of 1-10 cm from the tablet with the anti-counterfeiting pattern. After irradiation with the ultraviolet lamp for 5-15 seconds, the afterglow image is recorded for 1-10 seconds. S4. Processing afterglow images: importing the captured afterglow video into video analysis software for frame-by-frame analysis, capturing afterglow images at different times, and representing the afterglow images at each time with the number of frames; dividing 1 second into 60 frames for processing, that is, the frame rate is 60 frames / second; capturing an afterglow image every 2 frames until the 30th frame, capturing an afterglow image every 5 frames from the 31st frame until the 70th frame, and capturing an afterglow image every 10 frames from the 71st frame until the afterglow phenomenon disappears.

[0044] Comparative Example 1: To further illustrate the beneficial effects of the present invention, first, the tablets with anti-counterfeiting patterns were irradiated with ultraviolet light to explore the afterglow effect of the anti-counterfeiting pattern. The afterglow shooting method in this comparative example is consistent with that in Examples 1 to 13. The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1 to 13 is that tablets without anti-counterfeiting patterns are used in this experiment.

[0045] Comparative Example 2: In order to further illustrate the beneficial effects of the present invention, the tablets with anti-counterfeiting patterns were first irradiated with ultraviolet light to explore the role of the adhesive in this study. The preparation method of the anti-counterfeiting pattern in this comparative example is consistent with that in Examples 1 to 13. The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1 to 13 is that povidone K30 is not added in this experiment, and the most suitable component ratio is explored.

[0046] The afterglow images of the anti-counterfeit tablets obtained from the results of Examples 1 to 13 were analyzed, and the results were as follows: Figure 1-Figure 13 Shown by: Figure 1-Figure 13It can be seen that Examples 1 to 13 all prepared tablet anti-counterfeiting images visible to the naked eye. The components of the anti-counterfeiting ink in Example 1 and Examples 2 to 13 are inconsistent. The mass ratios of CMC-Na:PVP K30 are 95:5 and 80:20, respectively, and the ethanol used is 75% ethanol and anhydrous ethanol, respectively. In the process of designing anti-counterfeiting ink, it is necessary to ensure the viscosity of the anti-counterfeiting ink and to ensure that it can be evenly sprayed on the surface of the tablet. PVP K30, as an adhesive, can increase the viscosity of the anti-counterfeiting ink, and CMC-Na, as a good phosphorescent material, has a highly sensitive humidity response. Therefore, ethanol is selected as the main solvent to disperse the anti-counterfeiting ink material into the solvent. The anti-counterfeiting ink prepared in Example 1 contains 0.95g CMC-Na and 0.05g PVP K30. The content of PVP K30 is relatively small and it is difficult to adhere directly to the surface of the tablet. Therefore, 75% ethanol is used to increase the wettability of the anti-counterfeiting ink, which sacrifices part of the phosphorescent effect while ensuring the adhesion of the anti-counterfeiting ink. The anti-counterfeiting inks prepared in other embodiments all contain 0.80g CMC-Na and 0.20g PVP K30. The PVP K30 content increases, the adhesion is enhanced, and the anti-counterfeiting ink can be dispersed into the solvent using anhydrous ethanol, so that the adhesion and phosphorescence properties of the anti-counterfeiting ink are maintained at a good level. The experimental results show that the Huangbai anti-counterfeiting tablets of Example 1 under 365nm wavelength irradiation have an afterglow effect visible to the naked eye, the duration is 1s, and the afterglow effects of Examples 3 and 5 are stronger than that of Example 1, and the afterglow image duration is 2s.

[0047] Depend on Figure 2-Figure 12 It can be seen that the tablets containing anti-counterfeiting ink have a 2s afterglow effect after being irradiated by 254nm and 365nm ultraviolet lamps. This is due to the special photophysical properties of CMC-Na. Under ambient conditions, when excited by 254nm and 365nm ultraviolet light, CMC-Na emits different colors. As the excitation wavelength increases, the color of the anti-counterfeiting ink changes from blue to yellow, and obvious afterglow effects appear at both 254nm and 365nm wavelengths.

[0048] Depend on Figure 2-Figure 13 It can be seen that the experiment uses different types of tablets to prepare anti-counterfeiting patterns, including round tablets, flat tablets, and special-shaped curved tablets, all of which can achieve anti-counterfeiting ink spraying, and the afterglow effect visible to the naked eye can be observed, and the afterglow image duration is 2s. The anti-counterfeiting ink prepared by this patent is not affected by the tablet morphology, and can effectively adhere to the surface of different types of tablets to achieve tablet anti-counterfeiting.

[0049] Depend on Figure 2-Figure 13It can be seen that the experiment sprayed anti-counterfeiting images of different shapes on each tablet, including flower-shaped, heart-shaped, and moon-shaped patterns. The anti-counterfeiting ink prepared by this patent can be evenly coated on the surface of the tablet, ensuring that the brightness of the anti-counterfeiting image on the surface of the tablet is evenly distributed, with a visual and intuitive effect. The experimental results show that the anti-counterfeiting ink prepared by this patent is not affected by the shape of the anti-counterfeiting pattern, and can be observed by the naked eye, and the afterglow image duration is 2s.

[0050] The results of comparative example 1 are analyzed. Figure 14-18 As shown: Chinese medicine Huangbai tablets and Xiao Chaihu tablets have no afterglow effect, while the special-shaped curved tablets have a weak afterglow effect. By spraying the anti-counterfeiting ink on the surface of Chinese medicine tablets, the afterglow effect of the anti-counterfeiting pattern can be observed with the naked eye, and it can be clearly distinguished from the Chinese medicine special-shaped tablets with a weak response afterglow effect. The afterglow image duration of the anti-counterfeiting image is 2s. The results show that the anti-counterfeiting ink is not affected by the type of Chinese medicine. The anti-counterfeiting ink prepared by CMC-Na is suitable for anti-counterfeiting applications of various Chinese medicine tablets.

[0051] The results of Example 2 are analyzed, and the results are as follows Fig.19 As shown in the figure: The ratio of CMC-Na to PVP K30 has a significant effect on the preparation of anti-counterfeiting patterns. When the ratio of CMC-Na: PVP K30 is 8:2, the anti-counterfeiting pattern can be sprayed on the surface of various types of tablets. When the ratio of CMC-Na: PVP K30 is 10:0, due to the poor viscosity of the anti-counterfeiting ink, after the ethanol solution is evaporated in the oven, the anti-counterfeiting ink is difficult to adhere to the surface of the tablet, resulting in the phenomenon of the anti-counterfeiting pattern falling off, such as Fig.19 As shown in the figure, the anti-counterfeiting pattern without PVP K30 cannot be attached to the tablet and will fall off with a slight touch, while the anti-counterfeiting pattern with PVP K30 can be fixed on the tablet. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.19 As shown, the experimental results show that the anti-counterfeiting ink prepared with 0.95g CMC-Na and 0.05g PVP K30 has an afterglow image of 1s, the anti-counterfeiting ink prepared with 0.80g CMC-Na and 0.20g PVP K30 has an afterglow image of 2s, and the anti-counterfeiting ink prepared with pure CMC-Na and no PVP K30 is difficult to adhere to the tablet surface. Therefore, the optimal ratio of anti-counterfeiting ink, that is, CMC-Na: PVP K30 is 8:2.

[0052] The design focus of the present invention is that the anti-counterfeiting ink is a highly viscous solution, which is conducive to adhering to the surface of the tablet; the anti-counterfeiting ink has a good afterglow effect visible to the naked eye due to its special phosphorescent properties; the components of the anti-counterfeiting ink are all edible pharmaceutical excipients with no toxic effects; the unique optical properties of the afterglow effect, high recognition, difficulty in imitation, good safety and stability are utilized to enhance the reliability of drug anti-counterfeiting; this patent prepares an anti-counterfeiting ink and sprays the ink onto the surface of the tablet. This method is simple to operate and easy to implement, and is applicable to all types of Chinese medicine tablets and different tablet shapes, without being restricted by the type of drug and tablet shape. This method can prepare a variety of anti-counterfeiting patterns and effectively improve the anti-counterfeiting performance; this application can meet the anti-counterfeiting needs of pharmaceutical companies for different tablets.

[0053] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any slight modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
