In vitro destruction of carboxymethylcephades (CMC) polymer, its based polymer isoniazid produced, and the in vivo remedial and long effect of the latter on a tuberculous process were studied. It was found that a polymer isoniazid in blood plasma gradually degraded by 80% within 5-6 days. The experiments on animals demonstrated a minimum reactive action of CMC capable of gradually biodegrading in the tissues. A possible treatment of tuberculosis with a polymer isoniazid administered once every week is shown.

Department of Physical Pharmacy and Pharmacokinetics, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poland.
Article Synopsis
- Mycobacterium tuberculosis's unique cell wall composition makes it resistant to antibiotics, prompting the need for new treatment strategies and drug monitoring.
- Key anti-tuberculosis drugs like rifampicin and isoniazid can degrade during storage and handling, necessitating careful analysis to separate these drugs from their breakdown products.
- The review highlights recent stability studies of anti-mycobacterial drugs, discusses degradation pathways especially for rifampicin, and provides guidelines for proper sample collection and storage to preserve drug integrity.

Article Synopsis
- Research has focused on coordination polymers for their diverse structures and stability, leading to the synthesis of a unique ionic neodymium coordination polymer.
- This polymer features a one-dimensional anionic structure linked to a three-dimensional cationic polymer, utilizing ligands like 4-sulfobenzoate and isoniazid, an antibiotic.
- The crystallization occurs in a monoclinic space group, stabilized primarily by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions, forming a specific tetragonal net structure.

Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS-TB) is a severe form of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis with high mortality and morbidity rates. The standard treatment regimen for CNS-TB parallels that of pulmonary TB, despite the challenge posed by the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which limits the efficacy of first-line anti-TB drugs (ATDs). Nose-to-brain (N2B) drug delivery offers a promising solution for achieving high ATD concentrations directly at infection sites in the brain while bypassing the BBB.

In this study, the adsorption of a mixture of high-consumed drugs onto virgin and aged PET microplastics has been studied for the time ever. The target mixture comprised two anti-inflammatory drugs, diclofenac and ketoprofen, one anti-hypertensive, valsartan, and four common antibiotics, indomethacin, trimethoprim, isoniazid, and metronidazole. Two types of PET MPs (virgin and UV-aged) were used in the experimental procedure.

Article Synopsis
- Antibiotic resistance is a global issue, highlighting the need for new antibiotics or improved delivery systems, leading to the development of OnG6 MOFs as multi-drug carriers for treating bacterial infections.* -
- OnG6 MOFs are created using the pro-drug 4,4'-azodisalicylic acid (AZDH), which produces aminosalicylic acid (ASA), and are characterized as mesoporous structures with unique metal configurations (Zn, Mg, Cu, Co) and 25 Å pores.* -
- These MOFs can absorb specific antibiotics like isoniazid and ciprofloxacin, with results showing that OnG6-Mg has the best drug absorption, and those containing cip
