Avaliação da remoção de interferentes endócrinos, ativos farmacêuticos e cafeína em água para abastecimento público do estado de São Paulo

Alguns compostos orgânicos como interferentes endócrinos e ativos farmacêuticos estão sendo encontrados em águas superficiais e vêm chamando a atenção de orgãos públicos e da comunidade científica. Dentre esses compostos, foram enfatizados nesse trabalho, o hormônio sintético 17α-etinilestr...

An increasing of the efficiency of microbiological synthesis of 1, 3-propanediol from crude glycerol by the concentration of biomass

Electron. j. biotechnol; 17 (2), 2014
Background 1,3-Propanodiol (1,3-PD), is used in the production of polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT), an aromatic polyester that exhibits high elastic recoveries. It is also employed as a supplement with low solidification properties, a solvent and a lubricant in the formof propylene glycol. 1,3-PD is ...

Development of fast dispersing tablets of nebivolol: experimental and computational approaches to study formulation characteristics

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 50 (4), 2014
Formulation of FDT (fast dispersing tablets) of nebivolol was optimized and evaluated using simplex lattice design (SLD). The influence of type and concentration of three disintegrants viz., Ac-Di-Sol, Primojel and Polyplasdone XL on hardness, friability and disintegration time of tablet was studied. Res...

Comparison of the antioxidant potential of antiparkinsonian drugs in different in vitro models

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 50 (4), 2014
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Furthermore, oxidative stress plays a role in PD, causing or contributing to the neurodegenerative process. Currently PD has only symptomatic treatment and still nothing ca...

Target-directed catalytic metallodrugs

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 46 (6), 2013
Most drugs function by binding reversibly to specific biological targets, and therapeutic effects generally require saturation of these targets. One means of decreasing required drug concentrations is incorporation of reactive metal centers that elicit irreversible modification of targets. A common appro...

Síntesis y evaluación preliminar de la posible actividad antimalárica y antineoplásica de derivados 7-cloroquinolina-4-sustituidos

En el presente trabajo se describe la síntesis y la evaluación de la posible actividad Antimalárica y Antineoplásica de una serie de derivados 7-cloroquinolina-4-sustituidos. La estrategia empleada para la síntesis comienza con las obtención de los intermediarios clave 1-(3 ó 4-(7-cloroquinolin-4-...

Synthesis and characterization of a cysteine xyloglucan conjugate as mucoadhesive polymer

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 49 (2), 2013
The aim of this study was to improve the mucoadhesive potential of xyloglucan polymer by the covalent attachment of cysteine as thiol moiety. The parent polymer xyloglucan was chemically modified by introducing sulphydryl bearing compound L-cysteine HCl. Different batches of xyloglucan-cysteine conjugate...

Formulation and evaluation of carvedilol microcapsules using Eudragit NE30D and sodium alginate

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 49 (4), 2013
Inclusion complexes of carvedilol(CR) with hydroxyl propyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPBCD) was prepared using co-grinding technique. Then, the inclusion complex was microencapsulated using combinations of Eudragit NE30D (EU) and sodium alginate (SA) utilizing orifice gelation technique. The formulations were a...
