Many of the most promising new pharmaceuticals coming along in the drug development pathway are hydrophobic by nature—that is, they repel water, and are thus hard to dissolve in order to make them available to the body. ...
Pharmaceutical drug development relies heavily on the creation of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) to enhance the dissolution rate and stability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Developing ASDs with the desired ...
Plastics monopolize our household accessories due to their low cost and versatility. Unfortunately, the lack of proper disposal measures has led to widespread proliferation of these non-biodegradables into the natural environment. ...
The cosmetics industry is turning towards natural alternatives to chemical agents used in products to pave the way towards a more sustainable future.
Purdue Pharma is inextricably linked with the opioid crisis.
The scientists who received the 2017 Nobel Prize in chemistry were honored for their development of a technique called cryo-electron microscopy, or cryo-EM. The technology was revolutionary because it enabled scientists to ...
It's a skin disorder that makes life miserable for around 800 million teenagers and adults worldwide, but Australian scientists may have found an effective treatment for acne, delivered via tiny nanoparticles.
Medicinal plants and herbs have been used across the globe for thousands of years, and the use of them has risen substantially in a modern-day resurgence.
A team at Sandia National Laboratories has developed a molecule that helps change the way some materials react to temperature fluctuations, which makes them more durable. It's an application that could be used in everything ...
Following the global COVID-19 pandemic, the development and rapid deployment of mRNA vaccines highlighted the critical role of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) in the context of pharmaceuticals. Used as the essential delivery vehicles ...
