The uterus of cattle is an organ of excellent absorptive properties, as has been demonstrated by the examples of a sulphonamide and of penicillin. This is true for all cyclic phases. Absorption was somewhat delayed, when animals were in di-oestrus or pro-oestrus. A comparison between rates of absorption by clinically intact and pathomorphologically altered uteri showed absorption of Solupront and Ursopen 40,000 to be much faster in cases of disease. Experimental results as well as knowledge so far obtained on protein binding capacity are likely to support the conclusion that in the pathologically altered uterus bacteriostatic effects of sulphonamides are low due to the high amount of p-aminobenzoic acid which is present as a direct antagonist in pus and cellular detritus.

Cannabidiol (CBD), a specialized metabolite (phytocannabinoid) abundant in Cannabis sativa, is attracting increasing attention for its alleged health-promoting properties. The present study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of CBD and its primary metabolite, 7-hydroxy-cannabidiol (7-OH-CBD), following a single oral dose of a CBD-rich Cannabis sativa extract, equivalent to 70 mg CBD, in healthy male (n=5) and female (n=6) participants. Using a randomized crossover design, the study evaluated the impact of a standardized high-fat meal compared to fasting on the oral bioavailability of CBD.

Plastic pollution and global warming are widespread issues that lead to several impacts on aquatic organisms. Despite harmful studies on both subjects, there are few studies on how temperature increases plastics' adverse effects on aquatic animals, mainly freshwater species. So, this study aims to clarify the potential impact of temperature increases on the toxicological properties of polyvinyl chloride nano-plastics (PVC-NPs) in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) by measuring biochemical and oxidative biomarkers.

As breath nitric oxide (NO) is a biomarker of respiratory inflammation, reliable techniques for the online detection of ppb-level NO in exhaled breath are essential for the noninvasive diagnosis of respiratory inflammation. Here, we report a breath NO sensor based on the multiperiodic spectral reconstruction neural network. First, a spectral reconstruction method that transforms a spectrum from the wavelength domain to the intensity domain is proposed to remove noise and interference signals from the spectrum.

It is desirable but remains challenging to develop high drug load amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) without compromising their quality attributes and bio-performance. In this work, we investigated the impacts of formulation variables, such as drug loading (DL) and polymer type, on dissolution behavior, diffusive flux, and in vitro drug absorption of ASDs of a high T compound, GDC-6893. ASDs with two polymers (HPMCAS and PVPVA) and various DLs (20 - 80%) were produced by spray drying and their drug-polymer miscibility was evaluated using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR).

Non-optically active water quality parameters (NAWQPs) are essential for surface water quality assessments, although automated monitoring methods are time-consuming, include labor-intensive chemical pretreatment, and pose challenges for high spatiotemporal resolution monitoring. Advancements in spectroscopic techniques and machine learning may address these issues. We integrated ultraviolet-visible-near infrared absorption spectroscopy with physical-chemical measurements to predict total nitrogen (TN), dissolved oxygen (DO), and total phosphorus (TP) in the Yangtze River Basin, China.
