The aim of the present study was to evaluate the quality of the seawater in Alexandria, Egypt. Samples were collected in 6 different points: Kayet Bay, El Shatby, Camp Cesar, Sporting, Beir Massoud and El Max. In total, 24 samples were analyzed. For each point the analysis included estimation of the following parameters: Esherichia coli, total coliform and fecal streptococci, Yersinia, Shigella, Salmonella, bacteriophages and enteric viruses. Just one sample (El Max) was positive for the presence of Salmonella, neither Shigella or Yersinia were isolated from any of the analyzed points. E. coli was identified in 10 samples while the ratio between total coliform and fecal streptococci showed variable results with the exception of El Max that resulted constantly high. Three samples were positive for the presence of enteric viruses: El Shatby, Beir Massoud and Sporting. The analysis of phages showed a variable pollution values.

The FDA "Food and Drug Administration" recently approved a novel co-crystal formulation of Celecoxib (CEX) and Tramadol (TRM) for the treatment of adults suffering from moderate to severe pain in several conditions. This novel combination has advantages over co-administration of the two drugs individually as better patient compliance, synergism and lower therapeutic cost. This work presents the first "High performance Thin Layer Chromatographic" (HPTLC) quantitative analytical technique for CEX and TRM simultaneous assay in bulk, their new dosage form and plasma.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is primarily caused by oxidative stress, hyperphosphorylated τ-protein aggregation, and amyloid-β deposition. Changes in dopaminergic and serotoninergic neurotransmitter pathways are linked to certain symptoms of AD. Derivatives of bicyclic and tricyclic cyclohepta[b]thiophene were developed to identify new potential candidates as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors for the treatment of AD.
