objective(s): a box-behnken design was used for evaluation of eudragit coated diclofenac pellets. the purpose of this work was to optimize diclofenac pellets to improve the physicochemical properties using experimental design. materials and methods: diclofenac was loaded onto the non-pareil beads using conventional coating pan. film coating of pellets was done at the same pan. the effect of pla...

mycobacterium tuberculosis, the main cause of tuberculosis (tb), has still remained a global health crisis especially in developing countries. tuberculosis treatment is a laborious and lengthy process with high risk of non compliance, cytotoxicity adverse events and drug resistance in patient. recently, there has been an alarming rise of drug resistant in tb. in this regard, it is an unmet need...

A series of structurally related 2,4-dioxopyrimidine-1-carboxamide derivatives as highly potent inhibitors against acid ceramidase were subjected to hologram quantitative structure-activity relationship (HQSAR) analysis. A training set containing 24 compounds served to establish the HQSAR model. The best HQSAR model was generated using atoms, bond, connectivity, donor and acceptor as fragment d...
