Objectives: The aim of this study was to ivnestigate the effect of simulated gastrointestinal viscosity, surface tension, and pH on the dissolution rate of two commercial candesartan cilexetil (CC) products.

Materials And Methods: dissolution of two commercial CC products and immediate release of 16 mg of CC were applied under two conditions: (1) the requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and (2) conditions physiologically related to the gastrointestinal tract mimicking viscous food intake. The solubility of CC in different simulation fluids was also measured. The dissolution media's viscosity, surface tension, and pH were also measured. The viscosity of the gel layer was measured during CC dissolution.

Results: The CC dissolution rate was highest in the USP medium. It was found that the media type affected CC dissolution. The non-USP media exhibited a slower dissolution rate than the USP specification. The highest viscosity media lowered the dissolution rate in one of the CC products. Acidic pH showed a significant decrease in dissolution for both CC products. The solubility of CC was affected by solvent type (p value < 0.001).

Conclusion: Higher viscosity media slow the dissolution rate of a product, where a gel layer forms on the tablet surface.The results show variation in the dissolution media. This may reveal differences in the dissolution rates of the same drug in different products and media. Considering, viscosity's effect on dissolution might improve patient outcomes when treated with different products.

LiNiMnO (LNMO), with its high operating voltage, is a favorable cathode material for lithium-ion batteries. However, Ni and Mn dissolution and the associated low cycle life limit their widespread adoption. In this work, we investigate titanium doping as a strategy to mitigate Mn and Ni dissolution from LNMO electrodes.

Background: Edible oils are susceptible to contamination with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) throughout production, storage, and transportation processes due to their lipophilic nature. The necessity of quantifying PAHs present in complex oil matrices at trace levels, which bind strongly to impurities in oil matrices, poses a major challenge to the accurate quantification of these contaminants. Therefore, the development of straightforward and effective methods for the separation and enrichment of PAHs in oil samples prior to instrumental analysis is paramount to guaranteeing food safety.

Chemical corrosion resistance mechanism of titanium alloy radiation rods with self-protected structure.

Ultrason Sonochem

State Key Laboratory of Precision Manufacturing for Extreme Service Performance, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China; Light Alloy Research Institute, Central South University, Changsha 410083, China.

The chemical corrosion of the TC4 radiation rod surface (TRRS) during the ultrasonic casting process has the potential to significantly impair the smooth conduction of ultrasonic waves. However, in the later stages of corrosion, a self-protected structure (TSPS) emerges under the ultrasonic cavitation effect, which serves to impede the chemical corrosion of the TRRS and markedly reduce the rate of mass loss of the radiation rod. This ensures the smooth ultrasonic conduction of the radiation rod during operation.

In cold environments, such as polar regions and high latitudes, the freezing of aqueous solutions plays a crucial role in releasing and transforming nutrients, organic compounds, and trace gases. Freezing processes typically affect biogeochemical cycles and environmental processes by reducing the rate of chemical reactions. However, substantial studies have found that some chemical reactions may accelerate unexpectedly under freezing conditions.
