The aim of this study was to encapsulate an anti-diabetic drug (Metformin hydrochloride) within poly (lactic acid) microspheres, by using a double emulsion solvent evaporation method with different emulsifiers. Response surface methodology using Box-Behnken design was used to optimize the effects of fours factors (the amount of metformin in the inner aqueous phase (X-1), pH of the external aqueous phase (X-2), amount of polyvinyl alcohol as a surfactant in the external aqueous phase (X-3) and the stirring rate (X-4)) on the encapsulation efficiency, particle size and zeta potential. The optimized microspheres hada spherical shape and exhibited zeta potential of -20.8 mV, average diameter of 271.41 mu m and encapsulation efficiency of 78.05%. These values were reached by applying the following conditions: X-1 = 25 mg, X-2 = 4, X-3 = 1.5% and X-4 = 400 rpm. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction studies revealed that Metformin was present in an amorphous state in the microparticles. The study of the in-vitro drug release performed in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids showed that the drug release was more rapid with HPMC than with Span (R) 80 emulsifier.
