Thermodynamic Balance vs. Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach for the Outlet Temperature Estimation of a Benchtop Spray Dryer.

The use of design space (DS) is a key milestone in the quality by design (QbD) of pharmaceutical processes. It should be considered from early laboratory development to industrial production, in order to support scientists with making decisions at each step of the product's development life. Presently, there are no available data or methodologies for developing models for the implementation of design space (DS) on laboratory-scale spray dryers.

What's next in the use of opacifiers for cosmetic coatings of solid dosage forms? Insights on current titanium dioxide alternatives.

The consolidated use of coatings containing E171 (i.e. titanium dioxide, TiO) as an opacifier has made the white color of the resulting dosage forms a quality standard in the pharmaceutical and dietary supplement fields.

Sequential Use of CO Laser Prior to Nd:YAG and Dye Laser in the Management of Non-Facial Warts: A Retrospective Study.

: Warts are benign lesions of viral etiology characterized by a hyperkeratotic appearance tending to spread across the skin surface. Various treatments have been proposed to manage this condition, such as acids, imiquimod, photodynamic therapy, cryotherapy, and various lasers. In this paper, we describe a combination protocol using CO laser prior to Nd:YAG laser for lesions interesting the palmoplantar areas or dye laser for lesions on other skin surfaces in the management of non-facial warts resistant to traditional therapies.

A novel vehicle for the treatment of psoriasis.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of the topical use of an aerosol foam combination of calcipotriol 50 μg/g plus betamethasone dipropionate 0.5 mg/g (Cal/BD foam, Enstilar®) in adults with moderate plaque psoriasis. A total of 120 male and female adult psoriasis patients (53.
