    The goalThe objective is that student learns about: systems for controlled release, mass transfer in different systems and use of controlled release in different industries e.g. pharmaceutical, food, cosmetics. Student should learn about different ways of production of carriers for actives compounds.
    The outcomeStudent acquires basic knowledge about systems for controlled release. Student learns about advantages and weaknesses of new controlled delivery systems comparing to each other and to conventional systems.
    Contents
    Contents of lecturesPrinciples of controlled release. Molecular diffusion – steady and non-steady. Encapsulation of actives in the reservoir type of particles and mass transfer from these particles. Encapsulation of actives in the matrix particles and mass transfer from these particles. Diffusion in polymer systems and use of polymers for controlled release. Mechanism of actives release. Classification of controlled-release delivery systems according to mechanism of actives release. System design and controlled release mechanism from: Rate-preprogrammed delivery systems, Activation-modulated delivery systems and Feedback-regulated drug delivery systems.
