The Ministry of Health is constantly emphasizing the quality, efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products to safeguard the Malaysians public1. The Drug Control Authority at its 92nd meeting has decided to review the registration of generic products to include bioequivelent studies requirement for certain categories of oral immediate release products2 Bioavailability testing of drug products ...

Ferulic acid is a natural compound that possesses multiple physiological and pharmaceutical functions. The chemical, physical, and pharmaceutical properties of this phenolic acid can be improved by derivatives with other active compounds. This sentence (Hence, such improvements can widen the applications of ferulic acid in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries.) has been deleted. Th...

An old proverb states "necessity is the mother of invention." This certainly holds true in science as one pursues research questions. Experimental techniques have evolved as scientists have asked more specific research questions. Indeed, techniques such as the Ussing chamber, the perfused renal tubule preparation, patch-clamp, polymerase chain reaction, and site-directed mutagenesis have been d...

This paper describes zeroand first-order derivative spectrophotometric methods for determination of estradiol valerate in pharmaceutical preparations. The solutions of the standard and pharmaceutical samples were prepared in methanol. Absorbances of estradiol valerate were measured at 280 nm for zero-order by measuring height of peak from zero, at 292 nm for first-order derivative spectrophotom...

In this study, simple, fast and reliable cyclic voltammetry (CV), linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), square wave voltammetry (SWV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) methods were developed and validated for determination of bosentan in pharmaceutical preparations. The proposed methods were based on electrochemical oxidation of bosentan at platinum electrode in acetonitrile solution containin...

Pharmaceutical preparations are medicines that the pharmacist makes for the special needs of the patients that the pharmaceutical industry cannot comply for economic and logistic reasons. Pharmacy compounding is still an important component of pharmacy practice and a valuable therapeutical service that is an integrant part of the modern health care system, but its legislation is not harmonized ...

The aim of this study was to assess applicative properties of the produced acc. to own prescription dental anti-inflammatory hydrogel with Carbopol 974P. Ketoprofen pharmaceutical availability was tested from hydrogel with Carbopol 974P and to compare - from hydrogels of similar prescription produced on the base of xanthan gum carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt. Very high pharmaceutical availab...

Electrospray ionization - ion mobility spectrometry - mass spectrometry (ESI-IMS-MS) allows the identification of protein polymorphic distribution of protein conformers and oligomers. We report the detailed identification of the species observed with commercially available pharmaceutical preparation of wild-type, regular human insulin.

Treatment of a pharmaceutical preparation of vitamin B(12) and tetracycline with an ion-exchange resin by the batch method differentially adsorbed tetracycline, making possible a statistically reproducible microbiological assay of vitamin B(12) by the standard Escherichia coli plate method.

Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a mass spectrometry based molecular ion imaging technique. It provides the means for ascertaining the spatial distribution of a large variety of analytes directly on tissue sample surfaces without any labeling or staining agents. These advantages make it an attractive molecular histology tool in medical, pharmaceutical, and biological research. Likewise, MSI h...
