Physicochemical characterization of Remsima®

Physicochemical characterization of Remsima.

Remsima (infliximab) was recently approved as the world's first biosimilar monoclonal antibody (mAb) in both the European Union and Korea. To achieve this, extensive physicochemical characterization of Remsima in relation to Remicade was conducted in order to demonstrate the highly similar properties between the two molecules. A multitude of state-of-the-art analyses revealed that Remsima has i...

Physicochemical characterization of drug nanocarriers

Pharmaceutical design has enabled important advances in the prevention, treatment, and diagnosis of diseases. The use of nanotechnology to optimize the delivery of drugs and diagnostic molecules is increasingly receiving attention due to the enhanced efficiency provided by these systems. Understanding the structures of nanocarriers is crucial in elucidating their physical and chemical propertie...

Physicochemical Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity of Nanosilver Containing Hydrogels

Silver ion has been used for centuries to prevent and treat a variety of diseases and infections. In recent years, extensive studies have been undertaken on the use of antimicrobial properties of silver, incorporated within medical devices. The aim of this study was to prepare a formulation containing silver ion, which could be applied for wound dressing. The purity of nanosilver was measured b...

Design, Synthesis, Physicochemical and Immunological Characterization of Dendrimer-HBsAg Conjugate

Manufacturing new Hepatitis B virus vaccines, specifically by the use of nanoparticles, is of high global interest. In this paper, a new biocompatible and biodegradable structure of nano-sized hepatitis B virus’ surface antigen (HBsAg) was generated by conjugation with dendrimers, a low cost biodegradable and biocompatible polymer. The physicochemical properties of the conjugate were characteri...
