[0078] The clear paste, the dissolved vanillin solution, and the citric acid solution are mixed in a mixing barrel and heated to 60 to 85℃.
[0079] Granulation:
[0080] The stevioside, mannitol, croscarmellose sodium, dried tangerine peel powder, and dried yam powder are poured into a trolley according to the production prescription amount, the trolley is pushed into a flow layer spray granulation dryer, the equipment is started, and spray granulation and drying are performed. The spray frequency is 8 to 30 HZ, the inlet air temperature is 70 to 80℃, the material temperature is 35 to 50℃, the outlet air temperature is 45 to 75℃, the slurry addition temperature is 60 to 85℃, the fan frequency is 30 to 50 HZ, and the feeding speed is:

[0137] Continuous stability: 1) Long-term monitoring of hygroscopicity (25°C / 60% RH, 12 months), 2) optimization of packaging: use of aluminum-plastic composite film bags (moisture permeability ≤0.5 g / m 2 ·day)
[0138] Example 7: Screening of clear paste relative density
[0139] The fluidized bed process parameters were set as follows: feed rate 2.2 ml / min, atomization pressure 0.4 bar, and inlet air temperature 60°C. The relative density (room temperature) of the clear paste was adjusted to 1.05, 1.11, 1.15, 1.20, 1.25, and 1.28, respectively. The air flow was adjusted to make the material in a boiling state, and the granulation effect was observed. The results are shown in Table 8.
[0140] Table 8 Screening results of the relative density of the clear paste
[0141]
[0142] The results show that when the relative density of the clear paste is 1.05 (room temperature), the granules are too wet and cannot be continuously sprayed. When the relative density of the clear paste is between 1.11 and 1.25 (room temperature), the granulation is smooth, and the granules are uniform in size and color. When the relative density of the clear paste is greater than or equal to 1.28, the nozzle is easily blocked. The thinner the clear paste, the longer the working time. To improve efficiency, the clear paste with a relative density of 1.20 (room temperature) is selected for granulation.
[0143] Example 8 Screening of the fluidized bed spray granulation process
[0144] Single factor screening of the feed rate of the fluidized bed spray granulation equipment:
[0145] The relative density of the clear paste was fixed at 1.20 (room temperature), the inlet air temperature was 80°C, and the atomization pressure was 0.4 bar. The feed rate was adjusted to 1.2 ml / min, 2.2 ml / min, 3.2 ml / min, and 4.2 ml / min, respectively. The air flow was adjusted to make the material in a boiling state, and the granulation effect was observed. The results are shown in Table 9.
[0146] Table 9 Screening results of the feed rate
[0147]
[0148] The results show that when the feed rate is greater than 3.2 ml / min, the material is too wet, and if not dried in time, it is easy to cause the granules to stick together, resulting in larger granules. Wet granules are easily adhered to the nozzle, causing blockage. According to the actual granulation situation, the feed rate of 1.2-2.2 ml / min is selected for further optimization.
[0149] Single factor screening of the atomization pressure of the fluidized bed spray granulation equipment:
[0150] The relative density of the clear paste was fixed at 1.22 (room temperature), the feed rate was 2.2 ml / min, and the inlet air temperature was 60°C. The atomization pressure was adjusted to 0.2 bar, 0.4 bar, and 0.6 bar, respectively. The air flow was adjusted to make the material in a boiling state, and the granulation effect was observed. The results are shown in Table 10.
[0151] Table 10 Screening results of the atomization pressure
[0152]
[0153] The results show that the atomization pressure of the clear paste is between 0.2-0.6 bar, and the atomization state is good. When the atomization pressure is greater than 0.6 bar, the formed mist droplets are too fine, and it is difficult to granulate.
[0154] Single factor screening of fluidized bed inlet air temperature:
[0155] The relative density of the fixed clear paste is 1.22 (room temperature), the feeding rate is 2.2 ml / min, the atomization pressure is 0.4 bar, the inlet air temperature is adjusted to 60°C, 70°C and 80°C, the air volume is adjusted to make the material in a boiling state, and the granulation condition is observed. The results are shown in Table 11.
[0156] Table 11 Screening results of inlet air temperature
[0157]
[0158] The results show that when the temperature is low, the particle humidity is large, which leads to wall sticking and is not easy to dry. When the temperature is greater than 70°C, loose and dry particles can be prepared, which is beneficial to dry compression.
[0159] Optimization of fluidized bed spray process parameters by orthogonal test:
[0160] Determination of molding rate:
[0161] The prepared particles are weighed and passed through 20 mesh and 80 mesh sieves in turn. The particles that can pass through the 20 mesh sieve but cannot pass through the 80 mesh sieve are collected as qualified particles. The molding rate is calculated according to the following formula.
[0162]
[0163] Determination of moisture content:
[0164] Determined by moisture rapid tester.
[0165] Orthogonal test results and analysis:
[0166] Based on the above single factor test results, the relative density of the clear paste is selected as 1.22 (room temperature), the feeding speed (A), the atomization pressure (B) and the inlet air temperature (C) are selected as the observation factors, and three levels are set respectively. The molding rate and moisture content of the prepared particles are determined in turn, and two indexes are evaluated respectively. Orthogonal design table L9(34) is used for experiment. The factor level and experimental results are shown in Table 12 and Table 13, and the variance analysis results of two indexes are shown in Table 14 and Table 15.

[0174] Table 15 Analysis of variance of moisture
[0175]
[0176] Note: F 0.05 (2,2) = 19.00
[0177] From the results of intuitive analysis and analysis of variance, in terms of forming rate as an index, the influence degree of each factor on the experimental results is A (feed rate) > B (atomization pressure) > C (inlet air temperature), wherein A (feed rate) and B (atomization pressure) have significant difference; in terms of moisture as an index, each factor has no significant influence on the experimental results, and it can be known from the combination of the two that the best flow layer spray process condition is A2B1C2, i.e. when the relative density of the clear paste is 1.22 (at room temperature), the feed rate is 1.7 ml / min, the atomization pressure is 0.2 bar, and the inlet air temperature is 70°C.
[0178] Example 9 Screening of dry compression and crushing parameters
[0179] The purpose of crushing after dry compression is to make the flowability of the crushed powder better; in the packaging process, the loading amount is stable, and the dosage form is more accurate. The index for measuring the flowability of the powder is the angle of repose, and the lower the angle, the better the flowability, and vice versa, the worse the flowability.
[0180] The flowability of the powder is determined by the compactness of the particles, and the dry compression equipment mainly compresses the particles to be compact, and the parameter that determines whether the particles are compact is the oil pressure. Therefore, the oil pressure parameter is screened
[0181] Table 16 Screening results of atomization pressure
[0182]
[0183]
[0184] The results in Table 16 show that the flowability of the powder is good when the dry compression oil pressure is between 160-200 bar, the hardness is insufficient after dry compression when the oil pressure is less than 160 bar, and the flowability of the powder is not good, and the flowability of the powder is good when the oil pressure is greater than or equal to 160 bar.

[0193] First, three batches of pilot tests were performed, and the results in Table 18 show that the decoction pieces were extracted and concentrated, and the dry extract yield was 37.6%, and the pilot product yield was 75.5% to 80%. The process parameters of the three batches of tests were stable, and the process was reasonable and feasible. Subsequently, commercial batch production (50,000 bags / batch) was performed, and the batch numbers were: 200401, 200402, and 200403. The process parameters were stable and feasible, and the samples were used for subsequent research.

[0202] Dosage form Complete disintegration / dissolution time (seconds) Difference Tongkang oral dispersion 8.5±1.2 - Tongkang granules 128.6±15.3 ↑ 15 times
[0203] Conclusion:
[0204] The disintegration rate of Tongkang oral dissolving powder in the oral environment is significantly faster than the dissolution rate of granules in water (p < 0.001), which meets the technical requirements of "no need for water and instant melting upon entry".
[0205] Pharmacodynamic advantage demonstration: from dissolution speed to onset speed:
[0206] PK study (animal model) design: beagle dogs (n = 6) were given drugs in a cross-over manner.

[0212]
[0213] As shown in the results of Table 21, the peak time (Tmax) of Tongkang oral dissolving powder was significantly shortened, proving that rapid disintegration translates into earlier absorption, while the bioavailability (AUC) is not lost.
[0214] Example 12 Technical advantage of oral dissolving powder and equivalent incremental process verification research report
[0215] This study verified that, under the same prescription and extraction process:
[0216] Tongkang oral dissolving powder has a significant advantage in dissolution speed and bioavailability (T 50 68% shorter, C max 42% higher) compared to granules.
[0217] Adding aromatic mixed cream to the equivalent incremental method can improve the uniformity of volatile oil distribution (RSD ≤ 2.1%) and stability (retention rate of 91.5% for 6 months).

[0226]
