Production and application of microparticles generated from arrowroot starch

摘要

Production and application of microparticles generated from arrowroot starch.The present invention seeks to satisfy a need to develop a system with micrometric carreador of drugs of low cost.From arrowroot starch with the objective of application not only in the pharmaceutical area, but also, cosmetics, food, chemistry, among others.The polymer used to synthesize this system is of natural origin (arrowroot starch) being classified as a renewable, biodegradable matrices.The biocompatible and reduced to zero toxicity, these characteristics that favour the use of this material in relation to the synthetic.In this context, it also pursued innovation in the process of synthesis of micropartu00edcula by precipitation and has a simple preparation technique, low cost,Reduced power consumption and capable of industrial scale.This technique is advocated as a low cost by possessing the following parameters: a) the synthesis will occur at temperatures below 90 u00b0 C for crosslinking with organic acid.(b) under atmospheric pressure (low energy consumption), (c) the processing of homogenization, during the reaction.With system of mechanical agitation of relative simplicity, low cost and energy consumption), (d) methodology of single step.
