Özet: Ionotropic gelation was used to entrap Ketoprofen in sodium alginate beads. Ketoprofen is NSAIDs category drug; it has a short half life (1.5-2 h) and side effects such as irritation and ulceration in GIT. Beads were characterized for possible sustained drug release .On the basis of differential scanning colorimetry and IR spectroscopy, XRD alginate were found to be compatible with Ketoprofen. SEM showed that the beads were spherical and small. Ketoprofen encapsulation efficiencies were high (>90%), also results showed that, release profile in 0.1M HCl (pH 1) was slow. In phosphate buffer complete drug release was shown for all formulations within 6 h. The mechanism of release depended on swelling of beads. The swelling behavior dependent on pH of the medium; such a pH sensitive swelling could be auspicious for orally administered drug vehicles especially for acid sensitive drugs.
