Quantification of different levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine4 (5-HT4) receptor agonism expression across animal species as well as across organs within the same animal species offers substantial potential for the separation of desired gastrointestinal versus undesired cardiac pharmacological activity of compounds in development. Since a detailed investigation of such properties is lacking to date,...

Photoswitching and fluorescent properties of sulfone derivatives of 1,2-bis(2-alkyl-4-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene, 1-5, having methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, and i-butyl substituents at the reactive carbons (2- and 2'-positions) of the thiophene 1,1-dioxide rings were studied. Diarylethenes 1-5 underwent isomerization reactions between open-ring and closed-ring forms upo...

The overall objective of the present work was to develop an oral sustained-release (SR) Metformin tablet that is prepared by direct compression method using hydrophilic hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and Guar gum polymer alone as well in combination at different concentrations. a biguanide has relatively short plasma half-life. It low absolute bioavailability. All properties were evalu...

Ultraviolet-h igh performance liquid chromatographic (UV-HPLC) method was developed for the quantitation of carisoprodol and its impurities viz 2-methyl-2-propylpropane-1, 3-diyl d icarbamate (impurity-D) and N-isopropyl -2-methyl-2-propyl-3-hydroxy propyl carbamate (impurity-B) in active pharmaceutical ingredient. Validation of the method showed excellent sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy, pr...

objectives: mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) is extensively used in endodontics. however, mta is difficult to handle because of its granular consistency, low mechanical properties and initial looseness. the objective of this study was to assess the compressive strength (cs), diametral tensile strength (dts), and ph of set mta using methyl cellulose as liquid. materials and methods: white proroo...

Chromatographic separation of native DNA from DNA containing single-stranded regions has been used to determine the relative concentrations of structural intermediates generated during chemically induced DNA repair. Single doses of each of ten compounds were administered to rats. After periods ranging from 90 min to 13 days, hepatic DNA was isolated and analyzed by stepwise elution from benzoyl...

oil from the eucalyptus tree ( eucalyptus camaldulensis l.) is used today in many over the counter cough and cold products, to relieve congestion. eucalyptus oil is also used in creams and ointments to relieve muscle and joint pain, and in some mouthwashes. in this study eucalyptus camaldulensis leaves extracted with water and ethanol 96°and the antimicrobial effects of extracts were evaluated ...

METHYL N-PIqOPYL ETHER was first described by Chancel in 1869, but its valuable anaesthetm properties were not apprecmted unlal its inclusion in the long senes of ethers tested by Krantz and has co-workers m the United States. The clinical trials of methyl n-propyl ether fol/owing Krantz's original description of its anaesthetic properties and pharmacology m 1946 (1) showed that it might be sup...

In the title compound, C(14)H(15)IO(4)S, the O atom and the methyl group of the methyl-sulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran ring system. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-actions between an H atom of the propyl methyl-ene group closest to the carboxyl-ate O atom and the benzene ring of a neighbouring mol-ecule, and between an...
