Area of Science:

  • Pharmacology
  • Materials Science
  • Natural Products Chemistry

Background:

  • Myricetin (MYR) is a natural compound with demonstrated chemopreventative properties, particularly against UVB-induced skin damage.
  • Despite its therapeutic potential, limited data exists on MYR's physicochemical properties, hindering drug formulation development.
  • Understanding MYR's solid-state characteristics and solution stability is essential for its advancement as a pharmaceutical agent.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize the solid-state properties of Myricetin (MYR).
  • To investigate the solubility and stability of MYR in various solution conditions.
  • To provide data guiding the formulation development of MYR for therapeutic applications.

Main Methods:

  • Solid-state characterization using techniques to identify crystal forms.
  • Solubility studies in aqueous solutions.
  • Stability testing under different pH, oxidative, and UV radiation conditions.
  • Partitioning studies to determine log P.

Main Results:

  • Four distinct solid forms of MYR were identified: two hydrates (MYR I, MYR II) and two metastable forms (MYR IA, MYR IIA).
  • All MYR forms exhibited very low aqueous solubility (<5 μg/ml). MYR I was the most stable polymorph.
  • MYR degraded rapidly under basic pH and in oxidizing solutions, but showed good stability under UV radiation. Antioxidants improved solution stability.
  • MYR has a log P of 2.94, contributing to its poor water solubility.

Conclusions:

  • Myricetin's poor aqueous solubility and variable stability necessitate careful consideration during formulation development.
  • The identification of multiple solid forms and understanding degradation pathways are critical for creating stable and effective MYR-based drugs.
  • Further research into formulation strategies is required to overcome MYR's solubility and stability challenges for therapeutic use.
