Formation of natamycin:cyclodextrin inclusion complexes and their characterization.

TL;DR: Thenatamycin:CD inclusion complexes resulted in in vitro antifungal activity nearly equivalent to that of natamycin in its free state, and the water solubility was increased 16-fold, 73-fold and 152-fold with beta- CD, gamma-CD, and HP beta-cd, respectively.

Production of pure drug nanocrystals and nano co-crystals by confinement methods.

TL;DR: This review analyzes the processes for the preparation of nanocrystals and co‐crystals, divided by top‐down and bottom‐up approaches, together with their combinations and concludes that the combination of both strategies merges the favorable features of each process and avoids the disadvantages of single processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

When can cyclodextrins be considered for solubilization purposes

TL;DR: The cyclodextrin utility number, U(CD), a dimensionless number, is introduced to assess the feasibility of the use of CDs in dosage forms and was been extended to ionizable drugs that show synergistic increase in solubility due to ionization and complexation.

The effects of organic salts on the cyclodextrin solubilization of drugs

TL;DR: In this article, a β-cyclodextrin (βCD) solubilization of hydrocortisone is enhanced by including short-chain anionic and cationic species in the aqueous complexation medium.

pH-Dependent Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation of Highly Supersaturated Solutions of Weakly Basic Drugs.

TL;DR: In this work, the LLPS concentration of three weakly basic compounds-clotrimazole, nicardipine, and atazanavir-was determined as a function of pH using three different methods and was compared to the predicted amorphoussolubility, which was calculated from the pH-dependent crystalline solubility and by estimating the free energy difference between the amorphOUS and crystalline forms.

The Determination of Enzyme Dissociation Constants

TL;DR: On the basis of the assumed theory the rate of the observed reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the enzyme-substrate compound, where (E:l = (ES).
