Electrospray drying for producing Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) nanoparticles / Noor Fitrah Abu Bakar … [et al.]

Nanoparticles preparation of Mefenamic acid (MA) form I by using an electrospray drying method was conducted in this study. Mefenamic Acid (MA) is an anthranilic acid derivative and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It is widely used in minor to moderate pain including headache, dental pain, p...
