Abstract
Solid-lipid beads were prepared to retard the release rate of enrofloxacin and to mask its bitter taste using carrageenan or sodium alginate as a shell material and either cacao butter or Witepsol W-35 as a solid lipid core. Sodium alginate was a better shell material than carrageenan and the highest loading efficiency was obtained using 2% sodium alginate. The alginate beads had a spherical morphology and a sturdy shell structure. The enrofloxacin release rate at room temperature was greatly reduced. Solid-lipid beads have the potential to mask the bitter taste of enrofloxacin and extend its release rate.
