In this study, we screened surfactants and their combinations at low concentrations as potentially potent inhibitors of drug precipitation in an aqueous medium. Nine surfactants (including Pluronic F127, Pluronic F108, and Pluronic F68) were evaluated at concentrations below their critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) using an in vitro precipitation assay. A model compound used in this study showed a sharp pH-dependent solubility profile and was much more soluble in simulated gastric fluid (SGF) (pH 1.2) than in simulated intestinal fluid (SIF) (pH 7.4). The compound was first dissolved in SGF with each surfactant, and the solutions were dispensed into the wells of a 96-well microtiter plate by a TECAN robot and diluted 10-fold with SIF. After a preset incubation time at room temperature, the solutions were filtrated through a 96-well filter plate, and the compound concentration in the filtrate was measured using an HPLC method. At concentrations below their CMCs, Pluronic F127 and Pluronic F108, but not Pluronic F68, inhibited the compound precipitation in SIR Combinations of Pluronic F127 or Pluronic F108 with Vitamin E TPGS showed significantly stronger inhibition than the individual surfactants, indicating synergistic effects on inhibition of drug precipitation.
