The application of powder or granule formed bioactive glasses in the defect area with the help of a liquid carrier to fill the defects is a subject of interest and is still open to development. In this study, it was aimed to prepare biocomposites of bioactive glasses incorporating different co-dopants with a carrier biopolymer and to create a fluidic material (Sr and Zn co-doped 45S5 bioactive glassessodium hyaluronate). All biocomposite samples were pseudoplastic fluid type, which may be suitable for defect filling and had excellent bioactivity behaviors confirmed by FTIR, SEM-EDS and XRD.

Objectives: Amaryllidaceae alkaloids are well known for their wide range of pharmacological activities. Galanthamine, an Amaryllidaceae alkaloid, is an effective, selective, reversible, and competitive cholinesterase inhibitor marketed under different commercial names in several countries for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The aim of this work was to study the alkaloid profiles of the aerial parts and bulbs of both flowering and fruiting periods of Baker (Amaryllidaceae), as well as analyzing their inhibitory activities on both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) for the first time.
