the pharmacokinetic parameters of domestic and imported ranitidine hydrochloride tablets (ranitidine, formulated and manufactured by kharazmi pharmaceuticals, iran, and zantac ? manufactured by glaxo, uk) were measured in 14 healthy subjects following oral administration of a single 300-mg dose of each brand and compared for bioequivalence evaluation. the pharmaceutical equivalency of both form...

a major hurdle in pharmaceutical formulation is water insolubility of most of drugs affecting their stability and bioavailability. if the drug is also insoluble in organic medium, it is difficult to deliver it in a sufficiently bioavailable form and hence it is a great challenge to formulation researchers to overcome such difficulty. although some approaches are available for enhancing the diss...

The present study deals with sequential extraction of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) bound trace metals in an industrial area of Firozabad, India. During the study period, daily PM2.5 concentration ranged between 73.49 μg/m3 and 113.26 μg/m3 with poor air quality index of 196.37. In the present study, Ca recorded the highest while Co had the lowest concentration among all analysed metals. Mn, ...

In classical pharmacology, oral bioavailability of a toxicant is defined as that fraction of an orally administered dose reaching the systemic circulation of the animal. The present study estimates the bioavailability of methylmercury in channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) by comparing concentrations in the blood through time after oral and intra-arterial (IA) administration. Catfish were can...
