Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia and is a major contributor to global morbidity and mortality. Although Mondia whitei has been traditionally used for its antidiabetic and antioxidant effects, scientific evidence supporting these claims remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Mondia whitei root extract in a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic Wistar rat model. Phytochemical screening of ...

Due to the multiple diseases in the same patients, and the multiple medications they were taking, it was necessary to formulate medications containing two or more pharmaceutical substances to reduce the patient’s dosage and, as a result, reduce side effects. In this study aspirin and clopidogrel were formulated together in a pharmaceutical dosage form that ensures the chemical and physical stability. By wet granulation method as a first layer for clopidogrel as eduragit L100 as a polymer, which ...

Montmorillonite, which consists essentially of clay minerals belonging to the smectite group, has a wide range of chemical and industrial uses. The chemical structure composition, the exchangeableion type, and the small crystal size of smectite are responsible for several properties, including a large chemical active surface area, a high cation exchanged capacity and interlamellar surface having usual hydratation characteristics. The present work aimed to develop an organic-clay based on montmor...

Infrared (IR) dyes, especially those within the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, hold significant promise for in vivo visualization, due to their ability to access biological tissues and significantly reduce background interference from autofluorescence. Nanoparticles integrated with IR dyes have undergone extensive investigation regarding their pharmacokinetic behavior, including biodistribution patterns and clearance mechanisms. These nanoparticles exhibit a remarkable ability to prefere...

The study investigated the protective and curative effects of unripe palm kernel seeds on monosodium glutamate-induced uterine fibroid in rats. The rats were in eight experimental groups according to the time of administration of the unripe palm kernel seeds: the first four groups investigated protective effects of UPK for 28 days and the last four groups investigated the curative effects of UPK after treatment with MSG for 28 days. MSG was administered to the animals by oral gavage at a dose of...

The bioactive compounds in
methanol extract of Xylopia aethiopica fruits were determined using a combination of gas chromatography and mass
spectrometry (GC-MS). The compound identification was based on the molecular
structure, molecular mass and calculated fragments. Interpretation on mass
spectrum of GC-MS analyzer (Hewlett Packard GC-MS system) was done using ...

Over several decades, poly
(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) have been widely used as Micro-and
Nano-carriers of therapeutic agents for drug delivery applications. However,
encapsulation process of therapeutic agents into PLGA Nanoparticles (NPs)
necessitates a defined step to understand the effects and interactions of
parameters involved in production process. In pharmaceutics formulations, compared
to ...
