Drug discovery and toxicity prediction

Drug discovery, a pivotal aspect of pharmaceutical research, involves the identification and development of new therapeutic compounds. However, the process is hampered by challenges such as the labour- intensive nature of screening vast chemical libraries and the need to predict potential toxicity accurately. Common issues include limited labelled toxicity data, the complexity of molecular structures, and the time-consuming nature of experimental validation.

Evolution of phosphate binders in ckd patients on hemodialysis

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on hemodialysis often struggle with hyperphosphatemia, a condition that significantly increases cardiovascular disease risk and mortality. Phosphate binders, taken orally with dietary phosphate restrictions, are key in managing elevated serum phosphate levels. Traditional binders include calcium-based and aluminum-based options, while newer alternatives are non-calcium-based binders such as sevelamer, lanthanum, and iron-based agents like ferric citrate.

Prediction of gully erosion susceptibility mapping using xgboosting machine learning algorithm

Gully erosion presents a significant threat to the environment, putting agriculture, wildlife habitats, human safety, infrastructure, and soil health at risk. Mapping areas vulnerable to gully erosion accurately demands selecting the right machine learning model, given the varied environmental factors influencing gully formation.

A Validated RP-HPLC Method Development for the Estimation of Triamcinolone Acetonide Tablet and Injection

In the present work is to established simple, accurate, rapid and validated (as per ICH) RP-HPLC method developed for the quantification of Triamcinolone acetonide tablet and injection. In RP-HPLC method the column used was Phenomenex Luna C18, Column (250 mm x 4.6 mm id; 5 µm particle size) and the mobile phase was composed of Acetonitrile: 0.05M Phosphate buffer pH adjusted to 6.8 using NaOH with 0.1% of Triethylamine (55:45 v/v) with flow rate 1ml/min. Eluents were monitored by UV detector at 238 nm.

Enhancing functional properties of bioplastic films: solubility, degradability and antimicrobial efficacy

The ever-increasing demand of plastics in the world and their consequent disastrous effects on environment, a suitable environmental-friendly substitute like bioplastics/biodegradable plastics is the need time. Biobased plastics or bioplastics are made from renewable resources, such as corn, potatoes, soy, sugarcane, yam, wheat, and vegetable oil. With the price of oil rising and scarce resources of petroleum, tremendous efforts are being put by researchers to explore a proper and proven alternative to petroleum-based plastics (bio-waste, starch, cellulose, etc).

A review of current status of delnido cardioplegia and it’s variations in cardiac surgery

Del Nido cardioplegia is a favored choice in pediatric cardiac surgery, known for its unique composition with lidocaine to counteract potassium-induced depolarization, minimizing interruptions and enhancing surgical efficiency. Recent research extends its application to adult cardiac surgery, affirming its safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness. Limited availability of the standard base solution, Plasmalyte-A, in some regions hinders its use. An alternative approach with lactated Ringer's solution has been explored.
