Summary: This study investigates the impact of auto-body refinishing processes on the environment in Pakistan. By analyzing affected sites and control sites in Karachi, it is found that the concentrations of metals, particularly Pb, Mn, and Fe, are higher in the affected sites compared to the control sites. These metals mainly come from the pigments used in auto-body refinishing processes and other sources.

Summary: This study examined the global burden of lower respiratory infections (LRIs) and related risk factors in children older than 5 years and adults. The study found variations in the incidence and mortality rates of LRIs across different age groups and genders. Targeted interventions have been successful in reducing the burden of LRIs in children, and similar interventions for other age groups could contribute to the achievement of multiple Sustainable Development Goals.

Summary: This study presents a method for simultaneous determination of cetirizine and quinolones, using diclofenac sodium as an internal standard. The method involves the use of a mobile phase consisting of methanol, acetonitrile, and water, with a pH of 3.1 and a flow rate of 1 mL/min, with UV detection at 225 nm. The method was found to be accurate, precise, linear (>0.999), and sensitive, with recovery values between 95 and 105%.

Summary: A simple RP-HPLC method was used to determine cetirizine, diltiazem, verapamil, and amlodipine in active and dosage formulations, with rosuvastatin used as an internal standard to improve selectivity. The mobile phase consisted of a mixture of methanol, acetonitrile, and water, with validation of accuracy, precision, and linearity according to ICH guidelines. The proposed method showed good specificity and could be used for routine quality control and biological sample analysis.

Summary: This research article provides a comprehensive characterization and toxicological assessment of a photoisomeric impurity of the antianemic drug Roxadustat. The impurity has a distinct structure compared to the drug and its formation due to light exposure is a concern. Through various experiments, including single crystal XRD, physicochemical characterization, and in vitro cytotoxicity assays, the researchers confirmed the structure of the impurity, evaluated its conversion with Roxadustat, and assessed its toxicological activity. These findings contribute to the understanding of drug stability, safety, and formulation development.

Summary: The solution casting method was used to produce a new type of nanocomposites made of chitosan, gelatin, and co-doped ZnO nanoparticles. The addition of 3.5% co-doped ZnO nanoparticles improved the physicochemical characteristics and antimicrobial effects of the nanocomposites, indicating their significant potential in food packaging and energy storage.

Summary: Drug combination therapy is commonly used for treating various skin disorders, but its effectiveness is often limited. In this study, researchers synthesized conjugates of anti-pigmenting drugs and hyaluronic acid (HA) to improve treatment efficacy. These HA-drug conjugates exhibited measurable drug release profiles and demonstrated superior depigmentation effects compared to control groups in a swine model.

Summary: In this paper, a combined experimental and theoretical study was conducted to synthesize and characterize new 2-quinolone-piperidine and -morpholine hybrids. The results from experiments were validated using computational calculations, and the affinity between these compounds and Acetylcholinesterase/Butyrylcholinesterase was estimated through molecular docking.

Summary: This study reports the synthesis and solid-state characterization of a new pharmaceutical cocrystal, PRO-BPE, which can enhance the solubility of the highly water-insoluble prodrug probenecid. The PRO-BPE cocrystals were found to have superior water solubility compared to pure PRO. This research provides valuable insights into improving the solubility of poorly soluble drugs.

Summary: Material modification with low surface energy can achieve lower surface free energy on micro-and nano-rough structures, which is crucial for developing superhydrophobic surfaces. In this study, attapulgite (APT) was modified with alkylamine, alkylammonium salt, and stearic acid, and the interaction between low surface materials and attapulgite was explained. The results showed that the hydrophobicity of APT was significantly modified by the modifiers, and the surface free energy of the composites first decreased and then increased with increasing molecular number of low surface energy monomers.

Summary: The main aim of this study was to prepare a drug-drug coamorphous system to improve the physiochemical properties, solubility and stability of Apremilast and Indomethacin. Various solid-state characterization techniques were used to characterize the prepared system. Molecular level interactions were studied using molecular modeling and ATR-FTIR and 1H NMR. Solubility and dissolution studies showed the benefits of the coamorphous system. The system was found to be stable for a period of five months. Permeation study also demonstrated improved flux for both drugs compared to their crystalline forms. The coamorphous system showed anti-psoriatic and anti-melanogenic activity based on molecular docking results. Overall, the developed CAM-based supersaturated system exhibited improved physicochemical properties and physical stability.
