    Abstract
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of treatment of a promising dry powder aerosol carrier (mannitol) on the aerosolization performance of salbutamol sulphate (SS) using a novel approach: treating excess commercial carrier particles in a saturated solution of the same carrier. Commercial mannitol (CM) particles were treated with aqueous mannitol supersaturated solutions (20% and 25% w/v), under stirring, (300 rpm) for either 24h or 48 h. The results showed that particle treatment did not alter the polymorphic form of mannitol (β-mannitol); however, all treated mannitol particles demonstrated smoother surface topography and improved aerosolization performance compared to CM in dry powder inhalations. Unlike the concentration of mannitol solution used during treatment, the time of treatment to collect mannitol crystals was an essential key to modify the physical properties of mannitol and its effect on the aerosolization performance. In comparison to mannitol particles treated for 48 h, mannitol particles treated for 24h demonstrated larger size, more elongated-less regular shape, and smoother surfaces. No apparent relationship was obtained between in vitro aerosolisation behavior of SS with either mannitol particle size or shape descriptors. However, despite their larger size and more irregular-less uniformed shape, treated mannitol particles with smoother surfaces generated drug particles with smaller aerodynamic size and are expected to deliver higher amounts of drug to lower airways. The results demonstrated the potential of treating mannitol particles in aqueous solutions of the same material under controlled conditions to produce mannitol particles promising for dry powder inhaler systems. The results suggested that mannitol particle surface texture properties dominate over both particle size and particle shape of mannitol in terms of determining the aerosolization performance of mannitol.
