    1. Abstract need drastic improvement
    2. Table 2,3 and 4 can be combined
    3. Drug release mechanism is not discussed
    4. Only results are explained and discussion is required
    5. The influence  of various polymers on the release of the drug need explanations
    6. The figure 1 generally do not shows the significant difference in drug release, therefore a suitable statistical tests should be applied to indicate the significant effectiveness of the polymer(s) in retarding the release of the drug.
    7. Trials should be repeated using at least three batches and then results should be indicated as Mean ± SD etc.
    8. Results should then be explained in the light of statistical analysis.
    9. References are OK.
