Utilization of biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic principles in the development of veterinary controlled release drug delivery systems

TL;DR: The aim of this chapter is to provide an overview of biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic principles that are essential in meeting the challenges facing innovative producers of veterinary controlled release products on two major veterinary markets: livestock and companion animals.

High-pressure Nucleation of Low-Density Polymorphs*.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that bis-3-nitrophenyl disulphide is less dense than the ambient-pressure polymorph α and β, and that pressure compensates the high entropy and temperature product, substantiated in varied conformers and increased chemical potential.

Solid state modifications of drospirenone

TL;DR: In this article, structural, thermal and spectroscopic characterization of two different solid state forms of drospirenone (C24 H30 O3), a crystalline phase and an amorphous one were presented.

Reliable Characterization of Organic & Pharmaceutical Compounds with High Resolution Monochromated EEL Spectroscopy.

TL;DR: Electron energy loss spectroscopy at high energy resolution by transmission electron microscope (TEM) is expected to be a promising technique to screen and identify the different (organic) compounds used in a typical pharmaceutical or biological system and to detect any impurities present, if any, during the synthesis or formulation process.

Mechanism of sustained‐action medication. Theoretical analysis of rate of release of solid drugs dispersed in solid matrices

TL;DR: The analyses suggest that for the latter system the time required to release 50% of the drug would normally be expected to be approximately 10 per cent of that required to dissolve the last trace of the solid drug phase in the center of the pellet.

The united states pharmacopeia.

Robert A. Hatcher
- 04 Jan 1908 - 
TL;DR: The Pharmacopeia was called into being by physicians in 1820, and in 1850 pharmacists were admitted to the convention; since then physicians have gradually relinquished control to pharmacists, and to-day the authors are confronted with an anomalous condition.
