Description

목시덱틴을 포함하는 마이크로 입자 및 이의 제조 방법Microcapsules containing Moxydetin and a method for producing the same
본 발명은 목시덱틴(Moxidectin)을 포함하는 마이크로 입자 및 이의 제조 방법에 관한 것으로, 보다 구체적으로 심장 사상충을 예방할 수 있는 목시덱틴 및 생분해성 고분자를 포함하는 마이크로 입자 및 이의 제조 방법에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to microcapsules containing moxidectin and a method for preparing the microcapsules, and more particularly, to microcapsules containing moxidectin and a biodegradable polymer capable of preventing heartworms, and a method for producing the same.
심장사상충(Heartworm Disease; HWD)은 모기에 의해 전염되는 Dirofilaria immitis라는 기생충으로 개, 고양이, 족제비에 감염된다. 이름에서 알 수 있듯이 심장사상충은 포유동물의 심장에 기생한다. Heartworm Disease (HWD) is a parasite called Dirofilaria immitis, which is transmitted by mosquitoes. It infects dogs, cats and weasels. As the name suggests, heartworms parasitize the heart of mammals.
심장사상충의 성충은 30cm까지 성장하며 주로 폐동맥과 우심실에 기생합니다. 성숙한 암컷, 수컷 심장사상충은 마이크로 필라리아(microfilariae, L1)라고 불리는 매우 작은 유충을 생산한다. 이러한 유충들이 감염된 동물의 혈액 속에 기생하며 모기를 통해 다른 동물에 감염된다. 모기의 몸 속으로 들어간 L1은 2주 후에는 감염능력을 가지게 되며, 감염 능력을 가진 유충은 다시 모기를 통해 다른 동물로 전해지게 된다. 다른 동물에 감염된 유충은 몇 단계 성장을 거쳐 3 내지 4달 후에는 폐동맥으로 이주하게 된다. 이렇게 성숙한 심장사상충 성충은 평균 5 내지 7년간 생존하며 암컷, 수컷 심장사상충은 생식을 통해 수 많은 유충을 생산한다.Adult adults of the heartworm grow up to 30 cm and are parasitized mainly in the pulmonary artery and right ventricle. Mature female, male heartworms produce very small larvae called microfilariae (L1). These larvae parasitize in the blood of infected animals and infect other animals through mosquitoes. L1 entering the body of the mosquito becomes infectious after 2 weeks, and the infecting larva is transmitted again to another animal through the mosquito. Larvae infected with other animals grow through several stages and migrate to the pulmonary arteries after 3 to 4 months. Adult adult heartworms survive for an average of 5 to 7 years, and female and male heartworms produce numerous larvae through reproduction.
감염된 동물의 심장과 폐동맥에는 심장사상충이 적게는 1마리부터 많게는 200마리까지 기생할 수 있다. 감염에 의해 폐동맥은 두꺼워지고 염증이 생겨 심장사상충을 피해 폐에 혈액을 보내기 위해 심장은 더 많은 일을 해야 한다. 또한 폐에도 염증이 발생한다. 감염된 심장사상충의 수가 적을 때는 특별한 증상이 없을 수 있지만 일반적으로 심장사상충에 감염된 동물은 초기 증상으로 운동 기피, 기침, 체중감소 등을 보일 수 있다. 감염이 심한 경우에는 심한 기침, 호흡 곤란, 심부전 등의 증상이 나타날 수 있다. 심장사상충에 감염된 동물이 이런 증상들을 보이면 심부전으로 인해 죽는 경우도 발생한다.In the heart and pulmonary arteries of an infected animal, less than one heartworm can parasitize from one to as many as 200. Infection causes the pulmonary artery to become thick and inflamed, and the heart needs to do more to send blood to the lungs from heartworms. It also causes inflammation in the lungs. When the number of infected heartworms is low, there may be no specific symptoms, but in general, animals infected with heartworms may exhibit early symptoms such as avoidance of movement, coughing, and weight loss. In severe infections, symptoms such as severe cough, dyspnea and heart failure may occur. An animal infected with heartworms can die from heart failure if these symptoms occur.
진단을 통해 심장사상충에 감염된 것으로 확인될 경우, 비소계 약물(caparsolate)로 심장사상충 성충을 죽이거나, melarsomine을 이용하여 치료를 진행할 수 있다. 다만, 상기 치료제 모두, 주사 부위에 자극이 심하고 간과 신장에 어느 정도 손상을 입히는 부작용이 있다. If the diagnosis is confirmed to be infecting the heartworm, the heartworm can be killed with capsolate, or melarsomine can be used to treat the disease. However, all of the above therapeutic agents have serious side effects such as irritation at the injection site and damage to the liver and kidney.
이에, 심장사상충의 감염 전에 예방하는 것이 경제적이며 안전하다. 예방은 생후 6 내지 8주에 시행한다. 심장사상충 예방약에는 매일 먹이는 디에틸카바마진(diethylcarbamazine, DEC) 또는 매달 먹이는 이버멕틴(ivermectin), 밀베마이신(milbemycin), 목시덱틴(moxidectin), 세라멕틴(selamectin) 등이 있다. 예방약들은 올바르게 투여 되면 모두 예방효과가 뛰어나지만, 매일 또는 매달 먹여야 하는 점에서, 실수로 몇 번 투여하는 것을 빼먹는 것만으로도 감염의 위험성에 노출될 수 있다. Therefore, it is economical and safe to prevent heartworm infection. Prevention is performed 6 to 8 weeks after birth. Heartworm antitussives include diethylcarbamazine (DEC) or monthly fed ivermectin, milbemycin, moxidectin, and selamectin, which are daily diets. Preventive medicines are all effective in preventing them when administered correctly, but they can be exposed to the risk of infection just by omitting several doses of mistakenly administered daily or monthly.
이에, 심장사상충을 예방할 수 있는 목시덱틴을 이용하여, 한번 투여로 인해 3개월 내지 6개월 동안 약효를 유지시켜 투여 편의성을 개선한 심장사상충 예방약의 개발이 시급한 실정이다.Therefore, it is urgent to develop a preventive drug for cardiac canker disease which improves the convenience of administration by maintaining the medicinal effect for 3 months to 6 months by once using moxidetine to prevent heartworms.

When the weight ratio of the biodegradable polymer and the moxidectin is less than 4: 1, that is, when the weight ratio of the biodegradable polymer is less than the above weight ratio, the weight ratio of the biodegradable polymer is smaller than that of the dendritic polymer, It is difficult to produce microparticles in which the moxidetin is evenly distributed in the polymer particles. When the weight ratio of the biodegradable polymer and the moxidectin exceeds 9: 1, that is, when the biodegradable polymer is mixed with the weight ratio The content of moxifloxacin in the microparticles may be low and a problem may arise in that a large amount of microparticles must be administered to administer a desired concentration of the drug.

상기 2) 단계(S200)는 제2 혼합물을 제조하는 단계로, 계면활성제를 물에 용해시켜 제2 혼합물을 제조한다. 상기 계면활성제는 생분해성 고분자 용액이 안정한 에멀젼 형성을 도울 수 있는 것이라면 제한 없이 사용 가능하다. 구체적으로는 비이온성 계면활성제, 음이온성 계면활성제, 양이온성 계면활성제 및 이들의 혼합물로 이루어진 군으로부터 선택된 어느 하나 이상의 것이며, 더욱 구체적으로 메틸셀룰로오스, 폴리비닐피롤리돈, 레시틴, 젤라틴, 폴리비닐알코올, 폴리옥시에틸렌 소르비탄 지방산 에스테르, 폴리옥시에틸렌 피마자유 유도체, 라우릴 황산 나트륨, 스테아르산 나트륨, 에스테르 아민, 리니어 디아민, 패티 아민 및 이들의 혼합물로 이루어진 군으로부터 선택된 어느 하나 이상의 것이며, 바람직하게는 폴리비닐알코올이지만, 예시에 국한되지는 않는다.The 2) step (S200) is a step of preparing a second mixture, wherein the surfactant is dissolved in water to prepare a second mixture. The surfactant can be used without limitation as long as the biodegradable polymer solution can help form stable emulsion. Specifically, it is at least one selected from the group consisting of a nonionic surfactant, an anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, and a mixture thereof, and more specifically, methylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, lecithin, gelatin, polyvinyl alcohol , Polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid ester, polyoxyethylene castor oil derivative, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium stearate, ester amine, linear diamine, pattyamine, and mixtures thereof. Preferably, Polyvinyl alcohol, but are not limited to examples.
상기 3) 단계(S300) 및 4) 단계(S400)는 웨이퍼 상에 형성된 마이크로 채널로 제1 혼합물 및 제2 혼합물을 주입하여, 흐르게 하는 단계이다. The third step S300 and the fourth step S400 are the steps of injecting and flowing the first mixture and the second mixture into the microchannels formed on the wafer.
보다 구체적으로, 실리콘 웨이퍼에 e-beam evaporator를 이용하여 알루미늄을 증착하며, 포토리소그래피(photolithography) 기법을 이용하여 포토레지스트(photoresist)를 알루미늄 위에 패터닝한다. 이후, 포토레지스트를 마스크로 이용하여 알루미늄 식각(etching)하고, 포토레지스트를 제거한 후 알루미늄을 마스크로 하여 실리콘을 DRIE(deep ion reactive etching)로 에칭하고, 알루미늄 제거 후 웨이퍼 위에 유리를 양극 접합하여 밀봉하여, 상기의 마이크로 채널을 제조한다. More specifically, aluminum is deposited on a silicon wafer using an e-beam evaporator, and a photoresist is patterned on aluminum using a photolithography technique. Thereafter, aluminum is etched using a photoresist as a mask, the photoresist is removed, and the silicon is etched by DRIE (deep ion reactive etching) using aluminum as a mask. After the aluminum is removed, the glass is anodically bonded onto the wafer, Thereby manufacturing the above microchannel.
또한, 상기 마이크로 채널의 평균 직경은 60 내지 150㎛이며, 바람직하게는 80 내지 120㎛이며, 보다 바람직하게는 100㎛이지만, 예시에 국한되지 않는다. In addition, the average diameter of the microchannels is 60 to 150 占 퐉, preferably 80 to 120 占 퐉, more preferably 100 占 퐉, but is not limited to the example.
또한, 상기 마이크로 채널의 단면 폭(w) 및 단면의 높이(d)는 제조되는 마이크로 입자의 평균 직경(d')과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 도 8과 같이, 상기 마이크로 채널 단면의 폭(w)은 마이크로 입자의 평균 직경(d')에 대해 0.7 내지 1.3의 비율 범위이며, 마이크로 채널 단면의 높이(d)는 마이크로 입자의 평균 직경(d')에 대해 0.7 내지 1.3의 비율 범위이다.In addition, the cross-sectional width w and the cross-sectional height d of the microchannel are closely related to the average diameter d 'of the microparticles to be produced. 8, the width w of the cross-section of the microchannel is in the range of 0.7 to 1.3 with respect to the average diameter d 'of the microparticles, and the height d of the cross section of the microchannel is the average diameter d ') In the range of 0.7 to 1.3.
즉, 제조하고자 하는 마이크로 입자의 평균 직경(d')이 결정되면, 이에 따라, 마이크로 채널 단면의 폭(w) 및 높이(d)의 길이는 d'의 0.7 내지 1.3의 비율 범위로 설정해야만, 원하는 크기의 마이크로 입자 제조가 가능하다. That is, if the average diameter d 'of the microparticles to be manufactured is determined, the length of the width w and height d of the microchannel cross section should be set in the range of 0.7 to 1.3 of d' It is possible to manufacture microparticles of desired size.
상기 3) 단계(S300)는 제1 혼합물을 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널로 주입하여, 흐르게 하는 것이며, 상기 4) 단계(S400)는 제2 혼합물을 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널과 교차점을 형성하도록 형성된 양 측면 또는 일 측면의 마이크로 채널로 주입하여 흐르게 하는 것이다. In step S300, the first mixture is injected into the microchannel in the linear direction, and the fourth mixture is introduced into the microchannel in the linear direction. In step S400, Or into one side of the microchannel.
즉, 제1 혼합물은 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널을 따라 흐르며, 제2 혼합물은 상기 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널을 기준으로 양 측면 또는 일 측면에서 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널과 교차점을 형성하는 마이크로 채널을 따라 흘러, 제1 혼합물의 흐름과 만나게 된다. That is, the first mixture flows along the microchannel in the linear direction, and the second mixture flows along the microchannel forming the intersection with the microchannel in the linear direction on both sides or one side with respect to the linear microchannel, The flow of the first mixture is met.
이때, 제1 혼합물을 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널로 주입 시, 일정한 압력 조건으로 주입하여, 일정한 유속으로 흐르게 하며, 이때의 압력 조건은 1000 내지 1500mbar이며, 바람직하게는 1500mbar이지만 예시에 국한되지 않는다. 또한, 제2 혼합물을 양 측면 또는 일 측면의 마이크로 채널로 주입 시, 일정한 압력 조건으로 주입하여, 일정한 유속으로 흐르게 하며, 이때의 압력 조건은 1500 내지 2000mbar이며, 바람직하게는 2000mbar이지만 예시에 국한되지 않는다. At this time, when the first mixture is injected into the microchannel in the linear direction, it is injected under a constant pressure condition and flowed at a constant flow rate, the pressure condition being 1000 to 1500 mbar, preferably 1500 mbar, but not limited to the example. In addition, when the second mixture is injected into the microchannels on both sides or one side, it is injected under a constant pressure condition and flowed at a constant flow rate. The pressure condition is 1500 to 2000 mbar, preferably 2000 mbar, Do not.
즉, 직선 방향의 마이크로 채널로 주입되는 제1 혼합물보다 제1 혼합물의 흐름과 교차점을 형성하는 제2 혼합물의 흐름을 더 빠른 유속으로 흐르게 하기 위해, 더 높은 압력 조건 하에서 제2 혼합물을 흐르게 한다. That is, the second mixture flows under higher pressure conditions to flow the flow of the second mixture, which intersects the flow of the first mixture, at a faster flow rate than the first mixture injected into the microchannel in the linear direction.
상기와 같이, 제1 혼합물 및 제2 혼합물의 유속을 다르게 하고, 제2 혼합물의 유속을 제1 혼합물의 유속보다 빠르게 함으로써, 제1 혼합물의 흐름과 제2 혼합물의 흐름이 만나는 지점에서 상대적으로 더 빠른 유속을 가지는 제2 혼합물이 제1 혼합물을 압축하게 되고, 이때 제1 혼합물 및 제2 혼합물의 반발력으로 인해 제1 혼합물 내의 생분해성 고분자 및 목시덱틴이 구 형상의 마이크로 입자를 생성하게 되며, 보다 구체적으로, 구형의 생분해성 고분자에 목시덱틴이 고르게 분포되어 있는 형태의 마이크로 입자를 형성하게 된다.As described above, by making the flow rates of the first mixture and the second mixture different, and making the flow rate of the second mixture higher than the flow rate of the first mixture, the flow of the first mixture and the flow of the second mixture are relatively more The second mixture having a fast flow rate compresses the first mixture and the biodegradable polymer and the moxidectin in the first mixture form spherical microparticles due to the repulsive force of the first mixture and the second mixture, Specifically, microspheres in which moxidetin is uniformly distributed in a spherical biodegradable polymer are formed.
상기 5) 단계(S500)는, 마이크로 입자를 수집하는 단계로 제2 혼합물이 담긴 수조 내에서 마이크로 입자를 수집하여, 초기 생성된 마이크로 입자들 간의 뭉치는 현상(aggregation)을 방지한다. The step 5) (S500) collects the microparticles in the water tank containing the second mixture to prevent aggregation of the initially formed microparticles.
상기 5) 단계(S500)는 상기 2) 단계(S200)에서 제조한 제2 혼합물, 즉 계면활성제 및 물의 혼합 용액을 이용하는 것으로, 제2 혼합물을 상기 2) 단계(S200)에서 제조한 이후, 일부는 마이크로 채널로 주입시키고, 다른 일부는 5) 단계(S500)의 수조로 이동시켜, 수집된 마이크로 입자들간의 뭉치는 현상을 방지하는데 이용된다. The fifth step S500 uses a second mixture prepared in the step S200, that is, a mixed solution of a surfactant and water. After the second mixture is prepared in the step S200, Is injected into the microchannel, and the other part is moved to the water tank of step S500, and a bundle between the collected micro particles is used to prevent the phenomenon.
상기 6) 단계(S600)는, 수조 내에서 수집된 마이크로 입자를 교반하는 단계로, 마이크로 입자를 일정한 온도 조건 및 교반 속도로 교반하여, 마이크로 입자의 표면에 존재하는 유기 용매를 증발시켜 제거한다. 이때, 교반 조건은 15 내지 20℃에서 1 내지 2 시간 동안 200 내지 400 rpm의 속도로 1차 교반하는 단계; 상기 1차 교반 단계 이후, 20 내지 30℃에서 1 내지 2시간 동안 300 내지 500 rpm의 속도로 2차 교반하는 단계; 및 상기 2차 교반 단계 이후, 40 내지 50℃에서 3 내지 5시간 동안 400 내지 600 rpm의 속도로 3차 교반하는 단계의 순서로 진행한다.The step 6) S600 is a step of stirring the microparticles collected in the water tank. The microparticles are stirred at a constant temperature and stirring speed to evaporate the organic solvent present on the surface of the microparticles. At this time, the stirring conditions include a primary stirring at a speed of 200 to 400 rpm at 15 to 20 ° C for 1 to 2 hours; After the primary stirring step, the secondary stirring is performed at a speed of 300 to 500 rpm for 1 to 2 hours at 20 to 30 캜. And the third stirring step at a speed of 400 to 600 rpm for 3 to 5 hours at 40 to 50 DEG C after the secondary stirring step.
마이크로 입자를 교반하는 교반속도와 온도는 1, 2, 3차 교반 시기에 따라 각각 교반속도와 온도를 서서히 증가시키며 교반시키는 것을 특징으로 하며, 온도를 단계적으로 상승시킴에 따라, 마이크로 입자의 표면에 존재하는 유기 용매의 증발 속도를 조절할 수 있다. 즉, 마이크로 입자의 표면에 존재하는 유기 용매를 서서히 증발시켜, 매끄러운 표면을 가지는 마이크로 입자를 제조할 수 있다. The stirring speed and temperature for stirring the microparticles are characterized by gradually increasing the stirring speed and the temperature, respectively, according to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd stirring periods. As the temperature is raised stepwise, The rate of evaporation of the organic solvent present can be controlled. That is, the organic solvent present on the surface of the microparticles can be gradually evaporated to produce microparticles having a smooth surface.
보다 구체적으로 상기 6) 단계(S600)는, 1차로 15 내지 20℃에서 1 내지 2 시간 동안 교반하며, 바람직하게는 17℃에서 1시간 동안 교반한다. 이후 2차로 20 내지 30℃에서 1 내지 2시간 동안 교반하며, 바람직하게는 25℃에서 1시간동안 교반한다. 이후 3차로 40 내지 50℃에서 3 내지 5시간 동안 교반하며, 바람직하게는 45℃에서 4시간 동안 교반을 진행한다.More specifically, the 6) step (S600) is firstly stirred at 15 to 20 ° C for 1 to 2 hours, preferably at 17 ° C for 1 hour. Then, the mixture is stirred at 20 to 30 ° C for 1 to 2 hours, preferably at 25 ° C for 1 hour. Then, the mixture is stirred at 40 to 50 ° C for 3 to 5 hours, preferably at 45 ° C for 4 hours.
제1 혼합물 및 제2 혼합물이 마이크로 채널을 흐를 때의 온도 또한 15 내지 20℃이며, 바람직하게는 17℃이다. 즉, 마이크로 채널을 흐르고, 교차점을 형성하여 마이크로 입자를 생성한 이후, 수집된 마이크로 입자를 1차 교반할 때 까지는 일정하게 15 내지 20℃로 저온을 유지한다. 마이크로 입자의 제조 과정에서 저온을 유지해야만, 구형의 입자를 제조 및 유지가 가능하다. 즉, 저온 조건이 아닌 경우에는 일정한 구 형상의 입자를 제조하기 어려운 문제가 발생한다. The temperature at which the first mixture and the second mixture flow through the microchannel is also 15 to 20 占 폚, preferably 17 占 폚. That is, after flowing microchannels and forming crossing points to generate microparticles, the collected microparticles are kept at a low temperature of 15 to 20 DEG C constantly until the primary agitation. It is possible to manufacture and maintain spherical particles only if the temperature of the microparticles is kept low during the manufacturing process. That is, when the temperature is not low, it is difficult to produce a uniform spherical particle.
마지막으로 상기 7) 단계(S700)는, 마이크로 입자를 세척 및 건조하는 단계로, 교반하여 표면의 유기 용매를 모두 제거한 마이크로 입자를 제균 여과된 정제수로 수 차례 세척하여 마이크로 입자에 잔존하는 계면활성제를 제거하고, 이후 동결 건조한다. Finally, the 7) step (S700) is a step of washing and drying the microparticles. The microparticles in which the organic solvent on the surface is completely removed by stirring are washed several times with the filtered, purified water to remove the surfactant remaining in the microparticles And then freeze-dried.
최종적으로 생성된 마이크로 입자는 구형의 생분해성 고분자 마이크로 입자에 목시덱틴 약물이 고르게 분포되어 있는 형태이며, 마이크로 입자의 입자 평균 직경은 80 내지 130㎛이고, 생분해성 고분자 및 목시덱틴을 4:1 내지 9:1의 중량 비율로 포함한다. 마이크로 입자 내에 포함된 생분해성 고분자 및 목시덱틴의 중량 비율은 제1 혼합물에서의 중량 비율과 동일한데, 이는 마이크로 입자를 제조하고, 유기 용매를 모두 증발시켜 제거함에 따라, 제1 혼합물 내에서의 중량 비율과 동일한 비율로 생분해성 고분자 및 목시덱틴을 함유한 마이크로 입자를 제조할 수 있다. Finally, the microparticles finally formed are spherical biodegradable polymer microparticles having a uniformly distributed moxidectin drug, the average particle diameter of the microparticles is 80 to 130 탆, the biodegradable polymer and moxidectin are used in a ratio of 4: 9: 1. The weight ratio of biodegradable polymer and moxidectin contained in the microparticles is equal to the weight ratio in the first mixture, which is obtained by preparing the microparticles and removing all of the organic solvent by evaporation, Microparticles containing the biodegradable polymer and moxidectin can be produced at the same ratio as the ratio of the biodegradable polymer and the moxidectin.
