Tailoring Vanadium-Based Magnetic Catalyst by In Situ Encapsulation of Tungsten Disulfide and Applications in Abatement of Multiple Pollutants.

A magnetic nanocomposite of tungsten and vanadium was employed as a catalyst for the mitigation of water contaminants, including a carcinogenic dye (Congo red, CR), a widely used pesticide (glyphosate), and the bacterial strain . Additionally, it was subjected to several characterization techniques. X-ray diffraction spectroscopy examination validated the synthesized nanoparticles' crystalline nature, and scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis were employed to examine the morphology and elemental composition of the catalyst.

Unintentional Cannabis Ingestions and Supervisory Neglect.

Unintentional pediatric ingestions of substances can lead to serious and even fatal consequences in children1 and raises concern for supervisory neglect. Supervisory neglect occurs when a caregiver's supervisory decisions or behaviors place a child in their care at significant risk for physical, emotional or psychological harm.2 A caregiver who is taking prescription medication or who uses recreational or therapeutic substances, such as cannabis, must protect children in their care from accessing these potentially harmful drugs.

Synthesis and characterization of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) modified polymeric composite for effective treatment of wound healing by transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS).

The present study aimed to fabricate a novel polymeric spongy composite to enhance skin regeneration composed of Nystatin (antifungal agent) and Silver Nanoparticles (AgNps). Different formulations (F1-F8) were developed & characterized by using various analytical techniques. AgNps synthesized by chemical reduction method showed spherical morphology 2 µm in size showed by SEM and XRD.

Green Synthesis and Evaluation of Lepidium didymum-mediated Silver Nanoparticles for in vitro Antibacterial Activity and Wound Healing in the Animal Model.

Wounds serve as an appropriate medium for the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and bacterial resistance to already available antibiotics demands new and safe approaches in the field of medicine. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibited a wide range of applications in biomedicine and emerged as promising nano-antibiotics. The biological preparation of AgNPs by utilizing aqueous plant extract has become an encouraging alternative to traditional chemical methodologies, owing to a viable eco-friendly approach.

Molecularly imprinted ormosil as a sorbent for targeted dispersive solid phase micro extraction of pyriproxyfen from strawberry samples.

Novel molecularly imprinted organically modified silica was prepared by reacting acrylamide and 3-(tri-methoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate followed by condensation and hydrolysis with tetraethyl ortho-silicate for the determination of pyriproxyfen. The sorbent proved to be highly selective for the template molecule, pyriproxyfen. The characterization of sorbent was carried out using SEM, BET and TGA.

Experimental design by response surface methodology for efficient cefixime uptake from hospital effluents using anion exchange membrane.

The excessive use of antibiotics and their ultimate routes to the environment have prompted the drug resistance, which is becoming a major ecological issue. In this work, we have evaluated the performance of quaternary ammonium poly (2, 6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) and polyvinyl alcohol (QPPO/PVA) based anion exchange membrane against cefixime (a third generation cephalosporin antibiotic) present in hospital effluents. The membrane's surface morphology was studied through scanning electron microscopy.

Polyaniline-coated nanoparticles of zinc oxide and copper oxide as antifungal agents against .

is known for producing aflatoxins and is a major threat to the food industry. Green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) is a cost-effective and environment-friendly approach. A variety of NPs have been explored as antifungal agents; however, their antifungal characteristics need to be further enhanced to compete with traditional fungicides.

Traumatic head injury due to child maltreatment: epidemiology, cost analysis, and impact of prevention.

Background: Traumatic head injury due to child maltreatment (THI-CM), also known as abusive head trauma (AHT), is a significant public health problem due to the wide array of consequences affecting multiple domains of a child's health and development. Several studies have evaluated its cost on healthcare systems, families, and societies. Many jurisdictions have implemented caregiver education programs to prevent THI-CM.

DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF FAST REVERSED-PHASE HPLC METHOD FOR ANALYSIS OF ESOMEPRAZOLE IN RABBIT PLASMA.

The present study focused to develop rapid, accurate and sensitive reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography method for the quantification of esomeprazole (ESO) magnesium in rabbit plasma. Chromatographic separation was achieved isocratically on a reversed-phase C,, column using simple mobile phase consisting of of methanol : acetonitrile: 0.05 M phosphate buffer, pH 7 adjusted with potassium hydroxide (45 : 10 : 45, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 1.

APPLICATION OF VARIOUS POLYMERS AND POLYMERS BASED TECHNIQUES USED TO IMPROVE SOLUBILITY OF POORLY WATER SOLUBLE DRUGS: A REVIEW.

Solubility is concerned with solute and solvent to form a homogenous mixture. If solubility of a drug is low, then usually it is difficult to achieve desired therapeutic level of drug. Most of the newly developed entities have solubility problems and encounter difficulty in dissolution.

PREPARATION AND EVALUATION OF pH RESPONSIVE POLY(2-HYDROXYETHYL METHACRYLATE-CO-ITACONIC ACID) MICROGELS FOR CONTROLLED DRUG DELIVERY.

In this study, a series of pH sensitive microgels (MGs) were prepared by modified free radical suspension polymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and itaconic acid (IA), using ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as crosslinker. Equilibrium swelling technique was employed for esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate (EMT) loading. Prepared microgels were characterized through Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic light scattering technique (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), equilibrium swelling and in vitro drug release kinetics.
