چکیده

The solid state studies of pharmaceutical ingredients is essential for complete characterization of pharmaceutical products. The pharmaceutical industry utilizes a wide variety of techniques to research, develop, and manufacture compounds which possess high therapeutic value. Thermo microscopy or thermo-optical technique or hot stage microscopy (HSM) is quite extensively used to characterize the active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Apart from the basic morphological information about a compound, other characetristic solid state transformations, such as desolvation, phase transition, melting, incompatibilty, and decomposition, can also be identified. The combination of traditional hot-stage microscopy with new technologies such as greater resolution and rate for image caturing, novel means of achieving heating and cooling rates and more sophisticated softwares can allow more comprehensive understanding of the solid state propertis. The rapid interpretation of the results, small sample requirement to obtain valuable data and fairly an easy technique to master makes HSM an preferred choice for the pharmaceutical development industry. For the above mentioned reasons, thermomicroscopy finds its application in the pharmaceutical industry in a variety of ways.

Review: Current development on catalytic synthesis and pharmacological applications of 1,4-dihydropyridines

1,4-Dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs) are recognized as one of the most versatile pharmacophores present as central core in many pharmaceuticals. Low yield and harsh reaction conditions prompted the researchers for the development of new environmental- friendly methods for the synthesis of 1,4-DHPs. This review explored the development of various green chemistry approaches using new catalysts develop...

Voltammetric Determination of Sulfadoxine and Its Application in Pharmaceuticals and Urine Samples

The voltammetric behaviour of Sulfadoxine (SDN) was studied at a glassy carbon electrode in 0.2 M phosphate buffer solutions using cyclic, differential-pulse (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The dependence of the current on pH, concentration, and scan rate was investigated to optimize the experimental conditions for the determination of SDN. The oxidation process was shown to be diffusi...

Hazard assessment for a pharmaceutical mixture detected in the upper Tennessee River using Daphnia magna

Widespread use of pharmaceuticals has resulted in mixture concentrations ranging from mg/L in effluent to µg/L concentrations in surface water. In a 2008 study, 13 pharmaceuticals, ranging in amounts from 0.0028 to 0.1757 µg/l, were identified in the Tennessee River, USA and its tributaries. In order to address the need for risk assessment of environmentally relevant pharmaceutical mixtures, <e...
