Abstract
The objective of the present study was to prepare a novel mixed functional cationic exchange copolymer microsphere containing methyl methacrylic acid and sulfonated styrene crosslinked with divinylbenzene. The emulsion polymerization was used to prepare the cationic exchange copolymer microsphere which was characterized by the scanning electron micrograph (SEM) and the fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The release characteristic of the loaded drug i.e. dextromethorphan hydrobromide from the copolymer microsphere was studied under both simulated gastric (pH 1.2) and intestinal (pH 6.8) conditions. The result showed that the drug released from the novel copolymer microsphere depended on the pH of the release media.
