摘要:
A microparticle dispersion liquid manufacturing apparatus 10 includes a controller 11, a light source 12, an irradiation optical system 13, and a container 14. A solid object 1 is contained in and a solvent 2 is injected into an interior of the container 14 to enable attainment of a state where the solid object 1 is in contact with the solvent 2. The light source 12 repeatedly outputs pulsed light. By repeatedly irradiating the solvent 2 with the pulsed light from the light source 12, expansion and contraction of the solvent 2 is made to occur repeatedly at the irradiated portion, thereby generating a pressure wave in the solvent 2, and the pressure wave is made to act on the solid object 1 to finely pulverize the solid object 1 and thereby manufacture a microparticle dispersion liquid in which microparticles are dispersed in the solvent. A microparticle dispersion liquid manufacturing method and manufacturing apparatus are thereby realized by which both suppression of impurity formation and an increase in efficiency of microparticle formation can be achieved readily.

A method and an apparatus enabling manufacture of a microparticle dispersion liquid at high efficiency in a short time while suppressing drug degradation, etc., are provided. In a dissolving step, a poorly soluble drug and a dispersion stabilizer are dissolved in a volatile organic solvent in a container 13. In a fixing step following the dissolving step, the organic solvent, contained in a solution, is eliminated by evaporation, a pellet-form residue 1 is obtained by the organic solvent elimination, and the residue 1 is fixed on an inner wall of the container 13. In a water injecting step following the fixing step, water 2 is injected into an interior of the container 13. In an irradiating step following the water injecting step, laser light 1, emitted from a laser light source 11, is irradiated on the residue 1 fixed on the inner wall of the container 13, and the residue 1 is thereby pulverized and made into microparticles and a microparticle dispersion liquid, constituted of the microparticles being dispersed in the water 2, is manufactured. The microparticles contain the poorly soluble drug and the dispersion stabilizer.

In a dissolving step, in a container 13, a poorly soluble drug and a dispersion stabilizer (polyvinylpyrrolidone and sodium lauryl sulfate) are dissolved in a volatile organic solvent. In a solid composition forming step following the dissolving step, the organic solvent contained in the solution is removed by evaporation, and by the organic solvent removal, a solid composition 1 is obtained as a residue, and the solid composition 1 becomes fixed on the inner wall of the container 13. In a water injecting step following the solid composition forming step, water 2 is injected into the interior of the container 13. In a microparticle dispersion liquid preparing step following the water injecting step, laser light L emitted from a laser light source 11 is irradiated on the solid composition 1 fixed on the inner wall of the container 13 and optical energy is thereby applied to the solid composition 1.

摘要:
A to-be-treated body, which contains raw material particles 5 of a substance and with which a solvent 4 of a to-be-treated liquid 2 is made solid, is used, and a laser light source 10, which supplies a laser light of a predetermined wavelength to a treatment chamber 3 that contains the to-be-treated body, is provided to arrange a production apparatus 1A. The laser light from the laser light source 10 is illuminated onto the to-be-treated body to microparticulate the substance in solvent 4. As the to-be-treated body of solid form, a solidified body 6, with which water 4 is solidified by a cooling device 50 and the solidified state is maintained by a thermally insulating layer 30, may be used. Or, as the to-be-treated body, a gel body, with which the solvent is gelled, may be used. The substance can thereby microparticulated efficiently by photo-pulverization.
