New disease challenges, societal demands and better or novel types of data, drive innovations in the structure, formulation and analysis of epidemic models. Innovations in modelling can lead to new insights into epidemic processes and better use of available data, yielding improved disease control and stimulating collection of better data and new data types. Here we identify key challenges for the structure, formulation, analysis and use of mathematical models of pathogen transmission relevant to current and future pandemics.

Characterization of Amorphous Ibrutinib Thermal Stability.

Org Process Res Dev

January 2025

Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Chemistry and Technology, Technická 3, Prague 6, Dejvice 166 28, Czech Republic.

The choice of method for drug amorphization depends on various factors, including the physicochemical properties of the active pharmaceutical ingredients, the desired formulation, and scalability requirements. It is often important to consider a combination of methods or the use of excipients to further enhance the stability and performance of the amorphous drug. This study presents a comparison of techniques including melt quench, hot melt extrusion, solvent evaporation, ball milling, and lyophilization used for the preparation of amorphous ibrutinib.

Electronic address:

This study investigated the effects of oil addition on the physical and chemical properties of high-moisture texturized proteins (HMTPs), focusing on soy protein isolate (SPI) and pea protein isolate (PPI). Rheological analysis revealed contrasting behaviors: SPI exhibited decreased rheological parameters at low oil concentrations (1, 3 %), followed by a significant increase at higher concentrations (5, 10 %), whereas PPI showed a consistent decline across all oil concentrations. The superior emulsifying and gelling abilities of SPI resulted in stronger protein-protein interactions and greater hardness at higher oil concentrations.

Loading drug-maleimide (MAL) conjugates into liposomes preloaded with glutathione (GSH) can prepare the liposome encapsulating GSH-conjugated prodrugs, which serve as a feasible way to construct liposomal formulation. However, the effects ofthelinker on the development of this liposomal system remained unclear. Herein, docetaxel (DTX)-MAL conjugates linked by various linkers were used for such studies.
