Effect of bentonite and calcium chloride on apple wine

Yingying Han et al.

Summary: The study found that bentonite is an excellent methanol interrupter, both at 25 and 10 degrees C, and is able to maintain pectin content and defend wine quality. Calcium chloride, on the other hand, lowered pectin content, increased methanol content, and altered the profile of individual organic acids. Further research is needed to understand the impact of combining bentonite and calcium chloride on apple wine production.

Simultaneous and trace level quantification of two potential genotoxic impurities in valsartan drug substance using UPLC-MS/MS

Shuhong Li et al.

Summary: A sensitive and selective UPLC-MS/MS method was developed for the identification and quantification of two potential genotoxic impurities in valsartan. The method showed good linearity and accuracy, meeting the requirements of ICH guidelines. Expert knowledge rules and statistical evaluation systems were used to assess genotoxicity and set standard limits for the impurities.

Antispasmodic activity of the ethanol extract of Citrullus lanatus seeds: Justifying ethnomedicinal use in Pakistan to treat asthma and diarrhea

Muqeet Wahid et al.

Summary: In this study, the multi-target mechanisms of Citrullus lanatus seeds in treating asthma and diarrhea were elucidated. Pharmacological experiments, pharmacology network, and molecular docking predictions were used to verify the antispasmodic and bronchodilator properties of the seeds. LC ESI-MS/MS and HPLC were employed to identify and quantify the potentially active compounds in the seeds. In silico studies revealed that the bioactive compounds interfere with target genes related to calcium mediate signaling and smooth muscle contraction. The hydroethanolic extract of the seeds exhibited relaxant and spasmolytic effects on isolated tissues and showed anti peristalsis, antidiarrheal, and antisecretory response in animal models.

In silico assessment of genotoxicity. Combinations of sensitive structural alerts minimize false negative predictions for all genotoxicity endpoints and can single out chemicals for which experimentation can be avoided

Romualdo Benigni

Summary: The current focus is on using (Q)SAR methods and in vitro models to assess the genotoxicity of chemicals and gradually determine which ones do not require further testing. While there is hope to extend this approach to all genotoxicity endpoints, cautious follow-up of positive results is still recommended to avoid false positives.

Exploration of in vitro drug release testing methods for saquinavir microenvironmental pH modifying buccal films

Shaolong He et al.

Summary: This study examines two release testing methods to characterize buccal films and the relationship between microenvironmental pH (pHM) and saquinavir release. Results show that films containing HPMC K3 LV have faster saquinavir release compared to films with HPMC K100 LV, and an increase in malic acid content can accelerate saquinavir release. The combination of methods may have broad applications in buccal formulation development, with the imaging approach showing promise for characterizing pH modifying formulation principles.

Harmonized 3Rs-based non-mutagenic impurity qualification study designs developed using the results of an IQ consortium survey

Mayur S. Mitra et al.

Summary: Regulatory guidelines may require safety studies for impurities above a certain threshold in new drug substances, but lack specificity in species selection and study duration. The European Medicines Agency's encouragement to incorporate 3Rs principles led to a survey by the IQ DruSafe Impurity Working Group, aiming to reduce animal testing practices and harmonize study designs.
