3D printing has emerged as a powerful tool demonstrating effectiveness in early screening and targeted delivery for various types of tumors. Although the applications of additive manufacturing for cancer are widespread, the issues of scaling up, quality control and specificity remain. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of the current landscape of use of additive manufacturing in cancer diagnostics and treatment.

Article Synopsis
  • A novel bionanocomposite, chitosan-coated activated natural bentonite clay (CCANBC), was developed from waste biomass to effectively remove nickel (Ni) and Eosin Y from wastewater.
  • The bionanosorbents exhibited impressive properties, including high crystallinity and thermal stability, and demonstrated significant adsorption capabilities, achieving 186.42 mg/g for Ni and 238.37 mg/g for Eosin Y, while being thoroughly characterized using various analytical techniques.

The aim of this study was to develop a composite thermosensitive hydrogel for bone regeneration applications. This hydrogel consisted of chitosan, alginate and hydroxyapatite, and was loaded with zoledronic acid as a model drug. The feasibility of three-dimensional (3D) printing of the thermosensitive hydrogel using the extrusion based technique was investigated.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the traditional use of "Choi Jhal" in Bangladesh, focusing on the extraction and quantification of piperine, the plant's key bioactive compound.
  • Using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with methanol as the extraction solvent, results revealed the highest piperine concentration in the root (1.75%) and stem (1.59%).
  • The method demonstrated high precision and accuracy with a recovery rate of 99.16%, making it suitable for analyzing piperine in pharmaceutical and marketed samples.

Article Synopsis
  • This study focuses on improving the solubility and permeability of a BCS Class IV drug by developing self-emulsifying solid lipid matrices as a new form of drug delivery system.
  • Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems (SEDDS) are helpful for poorly soluble drugs but face manufacturing challenges like low drug loading and stability issues.
  • The research explores using a single-step extrusion process to create solid self-emulsifying granules with higher drug loading, which demonstrated significantly improved solubility and permeability, enhancing the potential for effective drug delivery.
