FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a matrix carrier composition for use in a pharmaceutical delivery system for oral administration, which is a suspension consisting of particles of a material in a continuous oil phase. The material consisting of particles comprises a first solid phase comprising silicon dioxide nanoparticles having hydrophobic surface, with particle size of 5-1000 nm, and a second solid phase comprising a biopolymer having hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts, said biopolymer containing polysaccharide. Said continuous oil phase is associated with the first and second solid phases, and the weight of the biopolymer is double that of the silicon dioxide nanoparticles. The invention also relates to a method of producing a matrix carrier composition, which includes mixing a first solid phase comprising silicon dioxide nanoparticles with oil, activating a second solid phase containing polysaccharide, wherein activation includes grinding, vacuum treatment, chemical treatment or ultrasonic treatment, adding said activated second solid phase to the oil and mixing the oil containing the first solid phase and oil containing the activated second solid phase.
EFFECT: improved efficiency and bioavailability of a medicinal agent encapsulated in a matrix carrier.
