Abstract

In the present study, microcapsules containing glibenclamide were prepared by solvent evaporation method and characterized by sieve analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The microcapsules were analyzed for % encapsulation efficiency, physical properties and in-vitro release pattern. Different batches of microcapsules were prepared by altering the drug:polymer ratio. The size of microcapsules were in the range of 180–250 μm they were spherical in shape as evidenced by photo micrographs and scanning electron microscopy. The % drug entrapment was in the range of 58–83% and showed sustained drug release over a period of 12 hour.
