In the course of research and development of a new pharmaceutical formulation of azelaic acid in the liposomal form, we developed a rapid and accurate method for the detection of impurities using high-performance liquid chromatography. A chromatographic column from Merck (Purospher Star RP C18, 250-4 mm (5 μm) was used in the assay, and the mobile phase gradient consisted of three phases: A--methanol : water (5 : 95) + 1.5% (v/v) acetic acid; B--water : methanol (5 : 95) + 1.5% (v/v) acetic acid; and C--chloroform. Detection of the impurities and the active substance was performed by an evaporative light-scattering detector. The method was validated for selectivity, system precision, method precision, limit of detection, and response rates. The proposed method can be used to detect impurities in the liposomal formulation of azelaic acid. The method enables separation of azelaic acid from the identified and unidentified impurities and from the excipients used in the drug form.

Objectives: Cognitive function plays a pivotal role in assessing an individual's quality of life. This research aimed to investigate how azelaic acid (AzA), a natural dicarboxylic acid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, affects aluminium chloride (AlCl)-induced behavioural changes and biochemical alterations in the hippocampus of rats.
Methods: Thirty-two male Wistar rats divided into four groups received distilled water, AzA 50 mg/kg, AlCl 100 mg/kg and AzA plus AlCl, respectively, by oral gavage for 6 weeks.

Background: Precancerous lesions of gastric cancer (PLGC) represent critical stages in gastric cancer progression, with a high risk of malignancy. Current treatments, such as Helicobacter pylori eradication, show limited efficacy in reversing precancerous molecular changes. Zuojin Pill (ZJP), a traditional Chinese medicine, has demonstrated potential for treating digestive disorders and may offer a promising approach for PLGC intervention.

Since the boiling point of the TEG is as high as 289.4 °C, the synthesis temperature can be correspondingly increased to a higher temperature that is a bit lower than this one.

Background: Acne vulgaris is a common inflammatory skin condition affecting almost 85% of the adolescent and young adult population. The etiopathogenesis of this dermatosis involves an imbalance in the skin microbiome, leading to inflammation of both the skin and hair follicles.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to develop topical anti-acne formulations with increased therapeutic efficacy and reduced risk of developing antibiotic resistance.
