Crystal forms of a new 5-HT4 receptor agonist DA-6886

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of polymorphs and pseudopolymorphs of DA-6886 was investigated by recrystallization and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and powder X-ray diffractometry (PXRD).

Thermal behaviour of melt crystallized phenylbutazone

TL;DR: In this paper, it was suggested that the value of the area ratio is related to the energy supplied to the melt phenylbutazone in the first heat cycle, and that the energy level that the melt should reach to crystallize as the metastable Form C should be higher than the essential one to crystallise as the stable Form A.

Thermal and pharmacological characterization of some new bis-xanthine derivatives

TL;DR: In this paper, the 8-substituted bis-xanthine derivatives with various substituents have been synthesized taking in the view the previous results with xanthine derivative, exhibiting enhanced and multiplied pharmacological properties in respect with those of theophylline.

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.
