Dabigatran Etexilate Mesylate was subjected to different ICH recommended stress conditions. Degradation of drug occurs almost in all conditions (hydrolytic, oxidative and photolytic) while mild degradation was seen with thermal stress. A validated stability-indicating HPLC method was developed for the analysis of drug in presence of its degradation products. The stressed samples of drug were an...

The determination of nimodipine in the presence of its degradation products, formed through photolysis, acidic and alkaline hydrolysis, and the drug degradation kinetics under these conditions, was investigated through a validated liquid chromatography method. Separation was achieved using a Phenomenex Luna C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-meth...

In this work, the role of comonomer content of 1-hexene-medium density polyethylene (MDPE) copolymer, synthesized using Phillips catalyst, on thermal behavior parameters such as: crystallization, melting temperature and thermal degradation was investigated in detail. The copolymer was fractionated to homogenous short-chain branching (SCB) fractions by "preparative temperature rising elution fra...

In this article, we investigate the thermal degradation of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). We find that under dry conditions, complete DNA degradation occurs at above 190°C. In addition, as the boiling temperature of water is pressure dependent, we have investigated the thermal degradation of the DNA in water for different applied partial pressures. This information is important for fundamental un...

some innovative solutions are proposed to the problem of the unavoidable physical migration of antioxidants from plastic films for packaging, in order to minimize the consequent undesirable effect of food contamination. in previous exploratory tests, phenolic antioxidant co-units were achieved and incorporated into polyethylene chain and now the work is extended to create new families of polyme...

Ocimum basilicum L. essential oil and its β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) complex have been investigated with respect to their stability against the degradative action of air/oxygen and temperature. This supramolecular system was obtained by a crystallization method in order to achieve the equilibrium of complexed-uncomplexed volatile compounds in an ethanol/water solution at 50 °C. Both the raw essentia...

An important polymer processing technique is additive manufacturing (AM), which enables shape-free design of complex final parts with limited waste during the development change, at least if impact molecular degradation reactions minimized. In present work, polystyrene (PS) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) have been processed via: (i) fused filament fabrication (FFF), separately accoun...

As an environmentally-green technology, thermal catalytic oxidation of octachloronaphthalene (CN-75) over anatase TiO2 nanomaterials was investigated at 300 °C. A wide range of oxidation intermediates, which were investigated using various techniques, could be of three types: naphthalene-ring, single-benzene-ring, and completely ring-opened products. Reactive oxygen species on anatase TiO2 surf...

In this work, the long glass fibre-reinforced poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) composites filled with 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO) were prepared by melt blending, and the influence of thermo-oxidative ageing on the static and dynamic mechanical properties, thermal behaviours and morphology of composites with different ageing time at 120 °C were investigated and an...
