Abstract
In this paper, the molecular dynamics at different thermodynamic conditions of hydrogen-bonded (H-bonded) active pharmaceutical ingredient-ticagrelor (TICA) have been investigated. Extensive high-pressure (HP) dielectric studies revealed surprising high sensitivity of the structural (α)-relaxation to compression. They also showed that unexpectedly the shape of the α-peak remains invariable at various temperature (T) and pressure (p) conditions at constant α-relaxation time. Further infrared measurements on the ordinary and pressure densified glasses of the examined compound indicated that the hydrogen-bonding pattern in TICA is unchanged by the applied experimental conditions. Such behavior was in contrast to that observed recently for ritonavir (where the organization of hydrogen bonds varied at high p) and explained the lack of changes in the width of α-dispersion with compression. Moreover, HP dielectric measurements performed in the glassy state of TICA revealed the high sensitivity of the slow secondary (β)-relaxation (Johari-Goldstein type) to pressure and fulfillment of the isochronal superpositioning of α- and JG-β-relaxation times. Additionally, it was found that the activation entropy for the β-process, estimated from the Eyring equation (a high positive value at 0.1 MPa) slightly increases with compression. We suggested that the reason for that are probably small conformational variations of TICA molecules at elevated p.

Physicochemical Characterization of a Co-Amorphous Atorvastatin-Irbesartan System with a Potential Application in Fixed-Dose Combination Therapy. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13010118. [PMID: 33477672 PMCID: PMC7831949 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13010118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2020] [Revised: 01/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to characterize a 1:1 molar ratio of a pharmacologically relevant co-amorphous atorvastatin-irbesartan (ATR-IRB) system obtained by quench cooling of the crystalline ATR/IRB physical mixture for potential use in the fixed-dose combination therapy. The system was characterized by employing standard differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and intrinsic dissolution rate studies. Quantum mechanical calculations were performed to obtain information regarding intermolecular interactions in the studied co-amorphous ATR-IRB system. The co-amorphous formulation showed a significant improvement in the intrinsic dissolution rate (IDR) of IRB over pure crystalline as well as its amorphous counterpart. An unusual behavior was observed for ATR, as the IDR of ATR in the co-amorphous formulation was slightly lower than that of amorphous ATR alone. Short-term physical aging studies of up to 8 h proved that the ATR-IRB co-amorphous system remained in the amorphous form. Furthermore, no physical aging occurred in the co-amorphous system. FT-IR, density functional theory calculations, and analysis of Tg value of co-amorphous system using the Couchman–Karasz equation revealed the presence of molecular interactions between APIs, which may contribute to the increased physical stability.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to characterise amorphous indapamide (IND) subjected to the physical ageing process by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The amorphous indapamide was annealed at different temperatures below the glass transition, i.e., 35, 40, 45, 65, 75 and 85 °C for different lengths of time, from 30 min up to a maximum of 32 h. DSC was used to characterise both the crystalline and the freshly prepared glass and to monitor the extent of relaxation at temperatures below the glass transition (Tg). No ageing occurred at 35, 40 and 45 °C at the measured lengths of times. Molecular relaxation time constants (τKWW) for samples aged at 65, 75 and 85 °C were determined by the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts (KWW) equation. The fragility parameter m (a measure of the stability below the glass transition) was determined from the Tg dependence from the cooling and heating rates, and IND was found to be relatively stable ("moderately fragile") in the amorphous state. Temperature-modulated DSC was used to separate reversing and nonreversing processes for unaged amorphous IND. The enthalpy relaxation peak was clearly observed as a part of the nonreversing signal. Heat capacities data for unaged and physically aged IND were fitted to Cp baselines of solid and liquid states of IND, were integrated and enthalpy was presented as a function of temperature.

Physicochemical Compatibility Investigation of Mesalazine and Folic Acid Using Chromatographic and Thermoanalytical Techniques. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2020; 13:ph13080187.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease is a common name for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. These inflammatory states cause damage in the sidewalls of the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in malabsorption of food and vitamins. Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is often associated with inflammatory bowel diseases since reduced overall folate concentration in the human body may lead to the development of colorectal cancer and megaloblastic anaemia. However, its deficiency is easily compensated by taking an additional folic acid pill during regular therapy. At the moment, there are no studies that have examined the compatibility of folic acid with 5-aminosalicylate drugs used in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. In this work, differential scanning calorimetry, forced degradation studies, isothermal stress testing and dissolution stability testing were used to determine the stability of folic acid and one of the most commonly used 5-aminosalicylates, mesalazine, when present in the same solution or blend. To monitor the assay of folic acid, mesalazine and nine of its related impurities, a single HPLC method was developed. Results of compatibility studies showed that no physicochemical interaction between mesalazine and folic acid occurs when combined, opening the path to the development of new formulations, such as a mesalazine/folic acid fixed-dose combination.

Compatibility study of rosmarinic acid with excipients used in pharmaceutical solid dosage forms using thermal and non-thermal techniques. Saudi Pharm J 2019; 27:1138-1145.

Abstract
Rosmarinic acid (RA) is a phenolic compound that presents well-documented anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antitumor activities, and based on its pharmacological potential and poor bioavailability, several solid dosage forms have been developed to RA delivery. Therefore, in literature, there are no reports about RA compatibility with excipients. In this regard, the aim of the present study was to evaluate, for the first time, the compatibility of RA with excipients commonly used in solid dosage forms at a 1:1 (RA:excipient) ratio using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry (TG), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR), and isothermal stress testing (IST) coupled with liquid chromatography (LC). The excipients selected were hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), lactose monohydrate (LAC), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), talc (TALC), croscarmellose sodium (CCS), and magnesium stearate (MgSTE). According to DSC results, physical interactions were found between RA and HPMC, LAC, CCS, and MgSTE. The TG analyses confirmed the physical interactions and suggested chemical incompatibility. FTIR revealed physical interaction of RA with TALC and MgSTE and the ssNMR confirmed the physical interaction showed by FTIR and excluded the presence of chemical incompatibility. By IST, the greatest loss of RA content was found to CCS and MgSTE (>15%), demonstrating chemical incompatibilities with RA. High temperatures used in DSC and TG analyses could be responsible for incompatibilities in binary mixtures (BMs) with HPMC and LAC, while temperature above 25 °C and presence of water were factors that promote incompatibilities in BMs with CCS and MgSTE. Overall results demonstrate that RA was compatible with MCC and PVP.

Abstract
Group III-nitride light-emitting diodes (LEDs) fabricated on sapphire substrates typically suffer from insufficient heat dissipation, largely due to the low thermal conductivities (TCs) of their epitaxial layers and substrates. In the current work, we significantly improved the heat-dissipation characteristics of an InGaN/GaN quantum-well (QW) green LED by using hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) as a heat-transfer medium. Multiple-layer hBN with an average thickness of 11 nm was attached to the back of an InGaN/GaN-QW LED (hBN-LED). As a reference, an LED without the hBN (Ref-LED) was also prepared. After injecting current, heat-transfer characteristics inside each LED were analyzed by measuring temperature distribution throughout the LED as a function of time. For both LED chips, the maximum temperature was measured on the edge n-type electrode brightly shining fabricated on an n-type GaN cladding layer and the minimum temperature was measured at the relatively dark-contrast top surface between the p-type electrodes. The hBN-LED took 6 s to reach its maximum temperature (136.1 °C), whereas the Ref-LED took considerably longer, specifically 11 s. After being switched off, the hBN-LED took 35 s to cool down to 37.5 °C and the Ref-LED took much longer, specifically 265 s. These results confirmed the considerable contribution of the attached hBN to the transfer and dissipation of heat in the LED. The spatial heat-transfer and distribution characteristics along the vertical direction of each LED were theoretically analyzed by carrying out simulations based on the TCs, thicknesses, and thermal resistances of the materials used in the chips. The results of these simulations agreed well with the experimental results.

Abstract
Aims After oral administration, naproxen generates several side-effects related to stomach malfunction. Undoubtedly, the enteric dosage forms with naproxen can be considered as safer. Moreover, since it has been evidenced that development and growth of colorectal cancer is related to the presence of cyclooxygenase, naproxen is investigated in terms of the tumor prevention. The aim of the present work was to formulate and evaluate the properties of novel naproxen-loaded macrobeads, made on the basis of low-acyl gellan gum and its blends with carrageenans, guar gum, cellulose sulfate, and dextran sulfates. Method Seven formulations were prepared by ionotropic gelation. The morphology of the dried beads was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. The next step focused on Raman spectroscopy and thermal analysis of naproxen, polymers, and the beads. Next, the swelling behavior was examined in three acceptor fluids at pH = 1.2; 4.5, and 7.4. The beads were evaluated regarding naproxen content and encapsulation efficiency. The last stage of the work concerned the drug release studies. Results Addition of any other polysaccharide than gellan resulted in flattening of the beads upon drying. Differential scanning calorimetry confirmed the crystalline form of naproxen. Raman spectra showed that no apparent interactions occurred. In the acidic environment, all the beads revealed the tendency to absorb water. The beads swelled to the greatest extent at pH = 4.5. Naproxen was released from the beads at a varied rate. At pH = 7.4, the most prolonged release was observed for the beads containing carrageenans. Conclusions We have proved that blending of gellan with various polysaccharides can change the pH-dependent properties of the beads loaded with naproxen. We believe that the information enclosed in the paper will be of particular importance regarding the development and characteristics of novel oral dosage forms based on natural polymers.

Abstract
The main goal of a novel drug development is to obtain it with optimal physiochemical, pharmaceutical and biological properties. Pharmaceutical companies and scientists modify active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), which often are cocrystals, salts or carefully selected polymorphs, to improve the properties of a parent drug. To find the best form of a drug, various advanced characterization methods should be used. In this review, we have described such analytical methods, dedicated to solid drug forms. Thus, diffraction, spectroscopic, thermal and also pharmaceutical characterization methods are discussed. They all are necessary to study a solid API in its intrinsic complexity from bulk down to the molecular level, gain information on its structure, properties, purity and possible transformations, and make the characterization efficient, comprehensive and complete. Furthermore, these methods can be used to monitor and investigate physical processes, involved in the drug development, in situ and in real time. The main aim of this paper is to gather information on the current advancements in the analytical methods and highlight their pharmaceutical relevance.

Abstract
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is frequently the thermal analysis technique of choice within preformulation and formulation sciences because of its ability to provide detailed information about both the physical and energetic properties of a substance and/or formulation. However, conventional DSC has shortcomings with respect to weak transitions and overlapping events, which could be solved by the use of the more sophisticated modulated DSC (mDSC). mDSC has multiple potential applications within the pharmaceutical field and the present review provides an up-to-date overview of these applications. It is aimed to serve as a broad introduction to newcomers, and also as a valuable reference for those already practising in the field. Complex mDSC was introduced more than two decades ago and has been an important tool for the quantification of amorphous materials and development of freeze-dried formulations. However, as discussed in the present review, a number of other potential applications could also be relevant for the pharmaceutical scientist.
