Objective: Intestinal inflammation with contradictory data on faecal calprotectin (fCP) levels is documented in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The aim of this study was to longitudinally evaluate fCP in a cohort of children with CF and their relationship with clinical variables.
Design: Prospective observational study to assess evolution of fCP levels, primary aimed at improving fat absorption.

The formation of pharmacobezoars from suspensions of spray-dried amorphous solid dispersions (SD-ASDs) of new chemical entities (NCEs) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMC-AS) represents a non-compound related adverse effect in preclinical oral toxicity studies in rodents. Whereas the contribution of the insolubility of the carrier polymer to this process taking place in the acidic environment of the rodent stomach is conclusive, unawareness of the extent of in vivo pharmacobezoar formation is adverse. In order to evaluate the risk of pharmacobezoar formation before in vivo administration, we subsequently introduce an in vitro model to assess the agglomeration potential of solid dispersions.

The aquatic environment receives a wide variety of contaminants that interact with each other, influencing their mutual toxicity. Therefore, studies of mixtures are needed to fully understand their deleterious effects on aquatic organisms. In the present experiment, we aimed to assess the effects of Cd and Zn mixtures in common carp during a one-week exposure.

In the aquatic environment, metals are present as mixtures, therefore studies on mixture toxicity are crucial to thoroughly understand their toxic effects on aquatic organisms. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) were used to assess the effects of short-term Cu(II) and Cd(II) mixtures, using a fixed concentration of one of the metals, representing 25 % of its individual 96h-LC (concentration lethal for 50 % of the population) combined with a variable concentration of the other metal corresponding to 10, 25 or 50 % of its 96h-LC, and vice versa. Our results showed a fast Cu and Cd bioaccumulation, with the percentage of increase in the order gill > liver > carcass.
