Abstract

An environmentally sound method to produce microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) has been developed. Conditions have been adjusted that make it possible to produce top-quality MCC with a good yield. The produced MCC is highly competitive with commercial samples in its performance. By means of combined mechanical activation of piroxicam and MCC that was obtained following a new technology, compositions have been prepared that offer higher than usual speed of dissolving of a medicinal substance. It has been demonstrated that "graft complexes" are formed between MCC and piroxicam as a result of interaction of the ingredients to form hydrogen bonds.
