The goal of this study was to increase the aqueous solubility and dissolution rate sinapic acid (SA) by formulating binary inclusion complex (BIC) SA with hydroxypropyl-?-cyclodextrin (HP?CD) using solvent evaporation (SE) technology. phase studies were conducted determine in vitro release SA. In addition, prepared characterized for solid state characterization techniques such as DSC, PXRD, SEM...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the byproducts of the incomplete combustion of carbon-based fuels, and have high affinity towards DNA strands, ultimately exerting their carcinogenic effects. They are ubiquitousenvironmental contaminants,and can accumulate on tissues due to their lipophilic nature. In this article, we describe a novel concept for PAH removal from aqueous solutions us...

2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) microfibres with diameters ranging between 3 and 7 µm were prepared by aqueous solution based high-speed electrospinning (HSES) technique then used as carbonising agent at wt% loading besides 15 ammonium polyphosphate (APP) to obtain flame-retarded poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites. The high specific surface area of the microfibrous HP-β-CD was found ha...

Nateglinide(NTG), Repaglinide(RPG), and Glimepiride(GMP) are antidiabetic drugs. These antidiabetic drugs are poorly soluble in water, which affect the bioavailability. In the present work, complex formation of all the three drugs with b-cyclodextrin (b-CD) and Hydroxy propyl bcyclodextrin (HPb-CD) and then the possibility of improving the solubility of NTG, RPG and GMP by complexation with b-C...

The treatment of onychomycosis is a challenging task because of unique barrier properties of the nail plate which hampers the passage of antifungal drugs in a concentration required to eradicate the deeply seated causative fungi in the nail bed. In present investigation, application of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) was established as an effective and nail friendly transungual drug perm...

BACKGROUND Evodiamine has gained wide interests recently because of its antitumor activities. However, a superior bioavailability is required to achieve better efficacy due to its poor water solubility. The aim of this study was to enhance the evodiamine's aqueous solubility by preparing evodiamine/hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (EVO/HP-β-CD) inclusion complex, which is incorporated evodiamine in...

Alveolar epithelial type II (AT2) cells secrete pulmonary surfactant via lamellar bodies (LBs). Abnormalities in LBs are associated with disorders, including fibrosis. However, high-content screening (HCS) for LB abnormalities is limited by the lack of understanding AT2 cell functions. In present study, we have developed harboring LB-like organelles that proteins. These were more similar to tha...

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Probing the dynamics of complexed local anesthetics via neutron scattering spectroscopy and DFT calculations (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2017.03.051)" (Martins et al., 2017) [1]. This work shows the molecular and structural behavior of the local anesthetics (LAs) bupivacaine (BVC, C18H28N2O) and ropivacain...

2-Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) is a chemically modified cyclic oligosaccharide produced from starch that is commonly used as an excipient. Although HP-β-CD has been suggested as a potential adjuvant for vaccines, its immunological properties and mechanism of action have yet to be characterized. In the present study, we investigated the maturation and activation of human dendritic cell...
