Abstract
To assess the salt solubilities of six alkali halides in aqueous systems, we proposed a thermodynamic cycle and an efficient molecular modeling methodology. The Gibbs free energy changes for vaporization, dissociation, and dissolution were calculated using the experimental data of ionic thermodynamic properties obtained from the NBS tables. Additionally, the Marcus' and Tissandier's solvation free energy data for Li+, Na+, K+, Cl-, and Br- ions were compared with the conventional solvation free energies by substituting into our self-consistent thermodynamic cycle. Furthermore, Tissandier's absolute solvation free energy data were used as the training set to refit the Lennard-Jones parameters of OPLS-AA force field for ions. To predict salt solubilities, an assumption of a pseudo-solvent was proposed to characterize the coupling work of a solute with its environment from infinitely diluted to saturated solutions, indicating that the Gibbs energy change of solvation process is a function of ionic strength. Following the self-consistency of the cycle, the newly derived formulas were used to determine the salt solubilities by interpolating the intersection of Gibbs free energy of dissolution and the zero free energy line. The refined ion parameters can also predict the structure and thermodynamic properties of aqueous electrolyte solutions, such as densities, pair correlation functions, hydration numbers, mean activity coefficients, vapor pressures, and the radial dependences of the net charge at 298.15 K and 1 bar. Our method can be used to characterize the solid-liquid equilibria of ions or charged particles in aqueous systems. Furthermore, for highly concentrated strong electrolyte systems, it is essential to introduce accurate water models and polarizable force fields.

Abstract
In this study, the applicability of the perturbed chain statistical associating fluid theory (PC-SAFT) was evaluated for pharmaceutical compounds. For this purpose, the parameters of the PC-SAFT equation of state (EOS) were regressed by applying the experimental solubility data of 54 pharmaceuticals in pure solvents. The reported errors for train and test data show the suitability of the PC-SAFT EOS. The applicability of the PC-SAFT EOS was explored by its prediction accuracy for the ternary system of medicine in solvent mixtures. The model errors were 23 and 26% for two ternary systems of salicylic acid and lidocaine HCl in solvent mixtures of ethanol and water, respectively. The co-crystal formation of salicylic acid-sulfamethazine in methanol was investigated by the PC-SAFT EOS. Finally, the reaction and crystallization sections for acetaminophen production from p-aminophenol were simulated by accompanying the PC-SAFT EOS and equilibrium assumption. The purification efficiencies for acetaminophen were obtained to be 93-98% for different temperatures.

Int J Pharm 2019; 569:118608.

Abstract
With respect to all biopharmaceuticals marketed to date, monoclonal antibodies represent the largest fraction with more than 48% market share (2012). However, the development of biopharmaceutical formulations is a challenging task, and time-consuming and cost-intensive high-throughput screenings are still state-of-the-art in formulation design. These screening techniques are almost exclusively based on heuristic decisions thus the benefit in terms of mechanistic understanding is often unclear. It requires novel, physical-sound methods to enhance/optimize future formulation development, ideally by understanding molecular interactions in these complex solutions. A suitable and evaluated measure-of-choice to characterize protein-protein interactions in aqueous protein solutions is the second osmotic virial coefficient B22 which can be measured using static light scattering techniques. Furthermore B22 can be modeled/predicted via the extended mxDLVO model for protein-protein interactions in the presence of single excipients and excipient-mixtures. Building up on this approach, giving an additional insight into water-water and water-excipient interactions, the thermodynamic equation-of-state ePC-SAFT is used to calculate water activity coefficients in the presence of excipient-mixtures. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) was chosen as a model protein to predict B22-values for IgG in the presence of model excipient-mixtures (trehalose-NaCl, l-histidine-trehalose, l-histidine-NaCl). The combination of water activity coefficients and B22 allows to quickly identify a first guess on suitable formulation conditions that then can be further evaluated with existing methods/knowledge.
