Self-assembled latanoprost loaded soluplus nanomicelles as an ophthalmic drug delivery system for the management of glaucoma.

Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness due to elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), is managed with medications like latanoprost (LAT), a prostaglandin analogue, to enhance aqueous outflow. Despite the challenge posed by eye anatomy and tear dynamics, effective ocular bioavailability via topical administration remains elusive. This study aims to optimize self-assembled nanomicelles incorporating LAT, an anti-glaucoma drug, belonging to BCS Class II (low solubility and high permeability) via a two-level, two-factor full factorial design, the nanomicelles were formulated via direct dissolution method and validated using design of expert.

Eggshell membrane as a novel and green platform for the preparation of highly efficient and reversible curcumin-based colorimetric sensor for the monitoring of chicken freshness.

Herein, for the very first time, we report a paper-like biomass, eggshell membrane (ESM), as a suitable platform for the fabrication of a colorimetric sensor (E-Cot). Green ethanolic extract, curcumin (CUR), was used as a sensing material to coat with the ESM. The present E-Cot effectively changed its color (yellow to red) in the real-time monitoring for chicken spoilage.

Comparative pharmacokinetic evaluation of glimepiride orodispersable and conventional tablets in rabbits.

Objectives: Glimepiride Orodispersable Tablets (ODT) were prepared with the goal to have rapid onset of action and higher bioavailability with ease administration to individuals with swallowing difficulty to ameliorate patient compliance.

Significance: Glimepiride is a contemporary hypoglycemic medication that belongs to the family of sulfonylurea derivatives. It is used in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Antibacterial Activity of Molybdenum Oxide-Polyacrylonitrile Composite Membrane with Fast Silver Ion Reduction.

The development of hybrid composite antibacterial agents for wound dressing has garnered significant attention due to their remarkable antibacterial efficacy and their potential to mitigate microbial resistance. In this study, we present an approach to designing and fabricating wound dressing membranes, utilizing molybdenum oxide-polyacrylonitrile (MoO/PAN) hybrid composites through electrospinning. Subsequently, we enhanced the membrane's effectiveness by introducing silver (Ag@MoO/PAN) into the matrix via a rapid (within one min) green synthesis method under UV irradiation.
