Novel Approaches for the Enhancement of Bioavailability of Drugs: An Updated Review.

In medicine, bioavailability is the percentage of a drug that enters the bloodstream and can be used to treat a patient. It has proven challenging throughout time to develop techniques that allow oral administration of most drugs, regardless of their properties, to achieve therapeutic systemic availability. This will be an impressive feat, considering that over 90% of pharmaceuticals are known to have limitations on their oral bioavailability.

N,N'-bicarbazole-benzothiadiazole-based conjugated porous organic polymer for reactive oxygen species generation in live cells.

A π-conjugated porous organic polymer (BCzBz) was fabricated employing N,N'-bicarbazole and benzothiadiazole as molecular building units exhibiting broad visible light absorption. The photostable, water-dispersible, and cytocompatible BCzBz was demonstrated as an efficient probe for intracellular reactive oxygen species generation under photoirradiation.

Evaluation of the antimicrobial potential of two flavonoids isolated from limnophila plants.

The antimicrobial potential of two bioflavonoids, i.e., 5,7-dihydroxy-4',6,8-trimethoxyflavone (1) and 5,6-dihydroxy-4',7,8-trimethoxyflavone (2), isolated from Limnophila heterophylla Benth.
