Crystalline anhydrous active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can potentially transform to the hydrate form during manufacturing processes involving water. The ability to understand and manipulate these transformations is important to maintain control of the solid state form of the API. The influence of various polymeric excipients on the anhydrate to hydrate transformation of caffeine, carbamazepine, and sulfaguanidine was investigated in this study. The transformation of the APIs in aqueous slurries was monitored using in-line Raman measurements and the resultant kinetic profiles provided insight into the inhibitory ability of the polymers investigated. The results showed that cross-linked poly(acrylic acid) inhibited the caffeine transformation and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose inhibited the carbamazepine transformation. None of the polymers tested were able to inhibit the sulfaguanidine transformation although some polymers were able to reduce the rate of the transformation with poly(vinylpyrrolidone) showing the greatest effect. It was found that the inhibitory polymers were able to either reduce crystal growth rates and/or increase the induction time preceding the nucleation event.

Developing sensitive and reliable methods for detecting antibiotics in water solutions is essential for protecting public health and the environment. Here, we report a novel fluorescent film with superior mechanical properties and detection response to ciprofloxacin (CIP), achieved through the in-situ growth of europium-based metal-organic frameworks on TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNF). Firstly, Eu(III) and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (DPA) served as precursors, and a simple self-assembly strategy was employed to grow the composite film material (Eu-DPA@TOCNF) in situ on TOCNF, which exhibited characteristic emission peaks.

Integrating nanotechnology with tissue engineering has revolutionized biomedical sciences, enabling the development of advanced therapeutic strategies. Tissue engineering applications widely utilize alginate due to its biocompatibility, mild gelation conditions, and ease of modification. Combining different nanomaterials with alginate matrices enhances the resulting nanocomposites' physicochemical properties, such as mechanical, electrical, and biological properties, as well as their surface area-to-volume ratio, offering significant potential for tissue engineering applications.
