Methods have been developed for the pilot-scale production of group A and group C meningococcal polysaccharide immunogens based on the meningococcal strains, the medium, and the basic processing procedures used by Gotschlich et al. Physical and chemical assays on the final products obtained on a pilot-scale level indicate that these purified polysaccharides are entirely comparable to the Gotschlich preparations which proved to be immunogenic in man.

Breeding of a new malting barley variety 'Satuiku 5 go' for Hokkaido exhibiting improved grain yield and malting quality.

Breed Sci

September 2024

Crop Research Laboratories, Sapporo Breweries Ltd., 37-1 Nittakizaki, Ota, Gunma 370-0321, Japan.

Hokkaido-specific malting barley varieties have been developed to improve the grain yield, disease resistance, malting quality, and brewing quality. In this report we describe the breeding and evaluation of brewing quality of a hulled two-row malting barley ( L.) variety 'Satuiku 5 go' lacking lipoxygenase-1 (LOX-1-less).

Pharmaceuticals and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent organic micropollutants (OMPs) posing environmental and health risks due to their bioaccumulative nature and potential toxicity. These OMPs spread to the environment due to the extensive use in today's society. Conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are not designed to effectively remove these contaminants, making WWTPs an important pathway, especially for pharmaceuticals, to the aquatic environment.

Formulation development and scale-up of dutasteride liquisolid tablets.

Drug Dev Ind Pharm

January 2025

Department of Pharmaceutical Technology and Biopharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jagiellonian University Medical College, ul. Medyczna 9, 30-688 Krakow, Poland.

Introduction: Liquisolid (LS) technology is particularly advantageous for poorly water-soluble drugs administered in very low doses because of the improved dissolution rate and superior content uniformity. However, there is a lack of research papers describing the application of this concept on an industrial scale. Thus, we present trials conducted to develop tablets containing 0.

This study presents the design, modeling, and validation of a mixing screw for energy-efficient single-screw extrusion. The screw features a short length-to-diameter (L/D) ratio of 8:1 and incorporates double flights with variable pitch and counter-rotating mixing slots. These features promote enhanced plastication by breaking up the solid bed and improving thermal homogeneity through backflow mechanisms relieving a 3.
