As a local delivery carrier of bone metabolic proteins, we have previously reported hydroxyapatite/chondroitin sulfate composite microparticles (HAp/ChS) and their formulation method using zinc cations (Zn), and the in vitro release properties of proteins from the microparticles. Herein, we report the release properties of model antibodies such as immunoglobulin (IgG), human IgG (hIgG), and denosumab (Dmab) from HAp/ChS using this formulation method. Adding Zn in the formulation of IgG loaded with HAp/ChS microparticles enhanced the release of antibodies from HAp/ChS in phosphate buffer saline. In addition, the biological activity of Dmab released from HAp/ChS formulated with Zn was significantly higher than that without Zn. These results suggest a possible beneficial effect on the treatment for local bone diseases. The sclerostin monoclonal antibody (Sclmab) promotes fracture healing. We prepared HAp/ChS microparticles loaded with Sclmab and locally administered the microparticles into a drilled hole in the distal femoral bone of young rats. After three weeks, the area of the newly formed osteoid around the drilled hole where HAp/ChS loaded with Sclmab and Zn was locally administered was significantly higher than that observed in the control group (normal saline). Thus, HAp/ChS microparticles and the formulation method of monoclonal antibodies using Zn could be useful in the treatment of local bone diseases.

School of Science, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, Bangkok, 10520, Thailand.
A nanoemulsion was fabricated from Cananga odorata essential oil (EO) and stabilized by incorporation of Tween 80 using ultrasonication. The major constituents of the EO were benzyl benzoate, linalool, and phenylmethyl ester. Differing sonication amplitude (20-60%) and time (2-10 min) were assessed for effects on nanoemulsion droplet size and polydispersity index (PI).

Carrying out carbon budget assessment and carbon compensation zoning research from inter-regional perspective can actively boost the formulation of green, low-carbon transformation strategies, guiding the flow of compensation credits, promoting regional equity and sustainable development, and realizing China's "dual-carbon" goal. Huai River Eco-economic Belt is considered to be a typical example of how land use affects carbon budget due to its more drastic land changes. The paper uses the carbon emission coefficient method to analyze the carbon revenue and expenditure of kinds of land-use patterns, and constructs the carbon compensation model with the help of the carbon budget concentration index and the dominant comparative advantage index, and puts forward the carbon compensation zoning program.

Objectives: Critically ill newborn infants often require simultaneous administration of multiple intravenous (IV) solutions through the same catheter lumen, making compatibility of these solutions crucial in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). This study aimed to investigate the physical compatibility of insulin aspart, lidocaine, alprostadil and vancomycin with individualised two-in-one parenteral nutrition (PN).
Methods: The study was conducted at the hospital pharmacy's drug compounding facility of the University Medical Centre Utrecht.
