[Methodology and application of process analytical technology (PAT) for traditional Chinese medicine manufacturing:a review].

Owing to the advancement in pharmaceutical technology, traditional Chinese medicine industry has seen rapid development. Preferring conventional manufacturing mode, pharmaceutical enterprises of traditional Chinese medicine have no effective process detection tools and process control methods. As a result, the quality of the final products mainly depends on testing and the quality is inconsistent in the same batch.

[Granulation of Yangxue Qingnao Granules in fluidized bed based on near-infrared spectroscopy].

To realize the real-time monitoring of the production process of Yangxue Qingnao Granules and improve the inter-batch consistency of granule quality in the granulation process, this study established a near-infrared quantitative prediction model of moisture, particle size, bulk density, and angle of repose in the fluidized bed granulation process of Yangxue Qingnao Granules based on near-infrared spectroscopy(NIRS). The near-infrared spectra were collected from 355 samples in 12 batches in the granulation process by integrating the sphere detection module of the near-infrared spectrometer. In combination with the pretreatment methods such as the first derivative, multiplicative scatter correction(MSC), and standard normal variate(SNV), the model was established by partial least squares(PLS) regression.

[Research on batch-to-batch quality control of compound Danshen extract based on physical characterization and multivariate statistical analysis].

Physical attributes of Chinese herbal extracts are determined by their chemical components, and the physical and chemical attributes jointly affect the preparation process performance and the final product quality. Therefore, in order to improve the quality control of Chinese herbal extracts, we should comprehensively study the batch-to-batch consistency of physical and chemical attributes as well as the correlations between them. This paper first explored the physical attributes affecting the preparation process performance of the compound Danshen extract and developed a method for characterizing the texture attributes.

Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of novel diaryl ureas possessing a 4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one group.

We herein disclose a series of novel diaryl urea derivatives possessing a 4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one group as novel potent anticancer compounds. The structures were confirmed by IR,(1)H-NMR, and MS. All the compounds were screened for their antiproliferative activity against the human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231).
