About Aspen Solubility Modeler
Aspen Solubility Modeler allows easy calculation of drug solubility in many
common solvents and comparison of different solvents by regressing data for
various electrolyte and non-electrolyte drugs with these solvents using the
NRTL-SAC
[2,4]
and eNRTL-SAC
[1,3]
property methods in Aspen Properties.
Aspen Solubility Modeler consists of a set of Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and
Aspen Properties files configured to allow you to quickly and easily calculate
the solubility information you need using the power of the Aspen Properties
engine.
Each package is a set of Excel spreadsheets and an Aspen Properties file
which can be used to determine the NRTLSAC/eNRTLSAC parameters for a
drug through regression of experimental data and to predict its solubility
based on these parameters.
Both Aspen Properties (from the Process Modeling (Aspen Plus) module) and
Aspen Solubility Modeler (from the Process Development module) must be
installed in order to use Aspen Solubility Modeler. While it is running, Aspen
Solubility Modeler uses its own license as well as an Aspen Properties license.

Defining a Drug
Define a drug using the Regression.xls workbook of Aspen Solubility
Modeler. Select either Pure Solvents or Binary Solvents on the initial screen
to access the appropriate worksheet. The worksheets are similar, and they
allow you to begin using Aspen Solubility Modeler by defining a drug. Follow
these steps to define the drug:
1. Open the Aspen Properties file NRTL-
SAC_130_Solvents_43_Excipients.aprbkp to establish the link between
the Excel interface and Aspen Properties. To do so, click Execute Step 1,
and then browse to the location where the Aspen Properties files for Aspen
Solubility Modeler are found.
2. Enter the molecular weight (MW), the Melting Point temperature, and
either the Enthalpy of Fusion or Entropy of Fusion for the drug
component. Among these, the molecular weight is the most important and
should be input accurately. However, if you know the values of the melting
point temperature and the entropy/enthalpy of fusion for the drug, you
should overwrite the values of them.
Note: Only one of entropy and enthalpy of fusion can be entered. If the
value of entropy is entered, the value of enthalpy will be calculated
automatically and vice versa.
When this is done, click Execute Step 2.
3. Enter the parameters for NRTLSAC (X, Y-, Y+, and Z), and when
appropriate, the salt precipitation equilibrium constants Ksp A, Ksp B, and
Ksp C.
If you do not know these parameters, enter estimates. You will be able to
perform data regression to get better values. If you know all the
parameters, you can enter them and skip the data regression, and click
Execute Step 3 to generate results.
4. At the top of the Step 4 section, you can choose whether to REGRESS or
EXCLUDE each parameter. Values entered in step 3 will be used for
excluded parameters.
Then enter solubility data. The minimum number of solubility data points
recommended is the number of parameters being regressed, but you may
enter more, up to the limit of the rows in this section of the spreadsheet
(30 for pure solvents and 40 for binary solvents). You can enter the
standard deviation for each data point as well as indicate whether to
include it in the regression.
The standard deviation is entered as a number representing a percentage.
Typical values are 5 to 20 percent depending on the quality of the
measurement apparatus and the experience of the experimentalists.
Standard deviations from high throughput experiments can be higher, 20
to 50 percent, and for sparingly soluble drugs, the standard deviation can
be 100 percent or more.
When you complete entering this data, click Execute Step 4 to run the
data regression. When running a Pure Solvent System analysis, please
ensure that the PURE case is selected. When running a Binary Solvent
System analysis, please ensure the BINARY case is selected.
When the regression completes, the final values for model parameters and
equilibrium constants appear in the Data Regression Results section to
the right.
