A Study of the Comparability of the Pharmacodynamic, Toxicological, and Pharmacokinetic Properties of the Reference Drug Pulmozyme® and the Biosimilar Drug Tigerase®.

The article presents the results of studies of the drug Tigerase® (inhalation solution manufactured by JSC GENERIUM, Russia), conducted to obtain evidence of its similarity (comparability) to the reference drug Pulmozyme® (inhalation solution, manufactured by Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Switzerland). Both drugs contain human recombinant deoxyribonuclease I (dornase alfa) as an active substance and are intended for the treatment of cystic fibrosis with pulmonary manifestations (mucoviscidosis).

[Activity of purine enzyme metabolism in rat thymocytes after irradiation and after administration of riboxine].

It has been established, that the total X-ray irradiation of animals takes influence upon the functional activity of key enzymes of adenine nucleotides metabolism: adenylatekinase, AMP deaminase, 5'-nucleotidase, adenosine deaminase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase in rat's thymocytes. The increase of activity of the investigated enzymes is observed in our experiment, except 5'-nucleotidase, which activity is authentically decreasing after irradiation (1.0 and 7.

Cellulose materials modified by antiseptics and their antimicrobial properties.

Adsorption properties of dressing cellulose materials with respect to surfactant antiseptics were studied. These antiseptics are a complex of the copolymer of N-vinylpyrrolidone and crotonic acid with dimethylbenzylalkylammonium chloride (a synthetic polymer with a wide spectrum of antimicrobial effect) and its low molecular weight analogue (dimethylbenzylalkylammonium chloride). It was established that cellulose materials reversibly adsorb mentioned surfactant antiseptics depending on their concentration in the initial solutions.
