Natural product extraction is a crucial process in the fields of chemistry, biology, and pharmaceuticals. It involves isolating bioactive compounds from plants, animals, and other natural sources to study their properties and potential applications in various industries. There are several methods used for natural product extraction, each with its advantages and limitations. One of the most ...
Transdermal drug delivery systems have gained considerable importance in the pharmaceutical industry due to their convenience, effectiveness, and ease of use. These systems rely on various excipients, which are inactive substances that aid in the delivery and absorption of active drug compounds through the skin. In this article, we will discuss eight important excipients commonly used in ...
Introduction to ANFDs Digitisation and integration are hallmarks of modern manufacturing. They enable greater productivity and more sustainable processes. Yet they often require significant investment. Transitioning to new, more interconnected systems can be tedious and time-consuming. But the long-term benefits can be extraordinary. Pharmaceutical manufacturing is not immune to this ...
Pharmaceutical excipients are substances formulated together with active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) of the drug, and excipients account for most of the drug composition. Excipients are designed to interact with and enhance the properties of APIs. Excipients have various functions. In addition to acting as carriers, and improving stability, pharmaceutical excipients are also conducive in ...
The manufacture of pharmaceutical products is a complex and multi-stage operation that can include processes such as blending, wet and dry granulation, milling, hot-melt extrusion, coating, andtablet pressing. Producing the exact formulation, release rate, consistency, and dosage form requires many chemical compounds and substances. Among the mare active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), the ...
Abstract Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) or e-cigarettes have emerged as a popular recreational tool among adolescents and adults. Although the use of ENDS is often promoted as a safer alternative to conventional cigarettes, few comprehensive studies have assessed the long-term effects of vaporized nicotine and its associated solvents, propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerin ...
Iron oxide nanostructures including nanoparticles and nanorods have been widely used for numerous in vivo and vitro applications such as magnetic resonance imaging contrast enhancement, tissue repair and drug delivery. All these biomedical and bioengineering applications require that these nanostructures have high magnetisation values and size smaller then 100 nm with overall narrow particle size ...
Introduction: Co-metabolism is one form of secondary substrate transformation in which enzymes produced for primary substrate oxidation are capable of degrading the secondary substrate fortuitously, even though the secondary substrates do not afford sufficient energy to sustain the microbial population. An emerging application involves the injection of water containing dissolved primary ...
