Theoretical calculations have shown that acidic candies may be potentially erosive upon consumption. However, little is known about the protective effect of adding calcium to potentially erosive candies and about the protective effects of saliva that cannot be fully accounted for by theoretical calculations. Therefore, the aims of this study were to (1) determine the erosive potential of acidic...

The selection of media in dissolution method development can sometimes be an arbitrary decision. The case studies in this article give a practical rationale that should help in selecting media, especially surfactants. Three cases were studied: (1) the role of surfactants versus compound stability in the dissolution medium during dissolution method development, (2) the selection of a surfactant ...

The development of a meaningful dissolution procedure for drug products with limited water solubility has been a challenge to both the pharmaceutical industry and the agencies that regulate them. These challenges include developing and validating the test methods, ensuring that methods are appropriately discriminatory, and addressing the potential for an in vivo–in vitro correlation (IVIVC). Di...

Abstract. People and organizations enter relationships, learn about them, adapt to them, and sometimes decide to leave them. This paper develops a learning model of relationship dissolution. The model also allows relationship quality to vary over time, following an AR(1) process. The model nests two possible assumptions about the causes of relationship dissolution. One is that relationships dis...

Married couples (N = 172) were observed as newlyweds and observed again 1 year later while engaging in 2 problem-solving and 2 personal support discussions. Microanalytic coding of these conversations was used to examine associations between problem-solving and social support behaviors for 1 year and their relative contributions to 10-year trajectories of self-reported relationship satisfaction...
