Abstract
In this study, the porous carbon material (FeN-BC) with ultra-high catalytic activity was obtained from waste biomass through Fe-N co-doping. The prominent degradation rate (> 96.8%) of naproxen (NAP) was achieved over a wide pH range (pH 3.0-9.0) in FeN-BC/PAA system. Unlike previously reported iron-based peracetic acid (PAA) systems with •OH or RO• as the dominated reactive species, the degradation of contaminants was attributed to singlet oxygen (1O2) produced by organic radicals (RO•) decomposition, which was proved to be thermodynamically feasible and favorable by theoretical calculations. Combining the theoretical calculations, characteristic and experimental analysis, the synergistic effects of Fe and N were proposed and summarized as follows: i) promoted the formation of extensive defects and Fe0 species that facilitated electron transfer between FeN-BC and PAA and continuous Fe(II) generation; ii) modified the specific surface area (SSA) and the isoelectric point of FeN-BC in favor of PAA adsorption on the catalyst surface. This study provides a strategy for waste biomass reuse to construct a heterogeneous catalyst/PAA system for efficient water purification and reveals the synergistic effects of typical metal-heteroatom for PAA activation.

Abstract
Photochemical active species generated from photosensitizers, e.g., dissolved organic matter (DOM), play vital roles in the transformation of micropollutants in water. Here, butanedione (BD), a redox-active moiety in DOM and widely found in nature, was employed to photo-transform naproxen (NPX) with peracetic acid (PAA) and H2O2 as contrasts. The results obtained showed that the BD exhibited more applicable on NPX degradation. It works in the lake or river water under UV and solar irradiation, and its NPX degradation efficiency was 10-30 times faster than that of PAA and H2O2. The reason for the efficient transformation of pollutants is that the BD system was proved to be a non-free radical dominated mechanism. The quantum yield of BD (Ф254 nm) was calculated to be 0.064, which indicates that photophysical process is the dominant mode of BD conversion. By adding trapping agents, direct energy transfer from 3BD* to NPX (in anoxic environment) or dissolved oxygen (in aerobic environment) was proved to play a major role (> 91 %). Additionally, the BD process reduces the toxicity of NPX and promotes microbial growth after irradiation. Overall, this study significantly deepened the understanding of the transformation between BD and micropollutants, and provided a potential BD-based process for micropollutants removal under solar irradiation.

Abstract
Immune response to biomaterials, which is intimately related to their surface properties, can produce chronic inflammation and fibrosis, leading to implant failure. This study investigated the development of magnetic nanoparticles coated with silica and incorporating the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen, aimed at multifunctional biomedical applications. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using various techniques that confirmed the presence of magnetite and the formation of a silica-rich bioactive glass (BG) layer. In vitro studies demonstrated that the nanoparticles exhibited bioactive properties, forming an apatite surface layer when immersed in simulated body fluid, and biocompatibility with bone cells, with good viability and alkaline phosphatase activity. Naproxen, either free or encapsulated, reduced nitric oxide production, an inflammatory marker, while the BG coating alone did not show anti-inflammatory effects in this study. Overall, the magnetic nanoparticles coated with BG and naproxen showed promise for biomedical applications, especially anti-inflammatory activity in macrophages and in the bone field, due to their biocompatibility, bioactivity, and osteogenic potential.

Abstract
This paper presents a study on the application of magnetic biochars derived from three distinct biomass sources: almond (AMBC), walnut (WMBC), and peanut (PMBC) shells for magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, from human saliva prior to LC-MS analysis. The three magnetic biochars were synthesized and characterized through IR, XRD, SEM, and EDX analyses. This work explored the factors influencing extraction efficiency using these three bioadsorbents through experimental design. The results obtained revealed that magnetic biochar derived from almond shells demonstrated outstanding performance in terms of naproxen extraction, achieving an impressive yield of 100.2%. This remarkable efficiency was achieved by optimizing parameters, including a 12-minute extraction time, a 3.5 mL elution volume, a 10 mg adsorbent mass, and a 4-minute elution time. Consequently, this study established almond shell as a low-cost, environmentally friendly, and efficient magnetic biochar for extracting naproxen from human saliva. This superior performance was made possible due to the abundant lignocellulosic potential inherent in almond shell structures, surpassing that of the other two biochars. The combination of magnetic extraction with LC-MS demonstrates good linearity, with an R2 value equal to 0.9987. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) are 0.013 and 0.047 μg L-1, respectively.

Abstract
Long-acting crystal suspensions of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) mostly comprised of an API, a suspension media (water) and excipients and provide sustained API release over time. Excipients are crucial for controlling particle size and to achieve the stability of the API crystals in suspension. A bottom-up process was designed to produce long-acting crystal suspensions whilst investigating the excipient requirements during the production process and the subsequent storage. PVP K30 emerged as the most effective excipient for generating stable naproxen crystals with the desired size of 1 to 15 μm, using ethanol as solvent and water as anti-solvent. Calculations, performed based on the crystal properties and assuming complete PVP K30 adsorption on the crystal surface, revealed lower PVP K30 requirements during storage compared to initial crystal generation. Consequently, a membrane-based diafiltration process was used to determine and fine-tune PVP K30 concentration in the suspension post-crystallization. A seven-stage diafiltration process removed 98 % of the PVP K30 present in the suspension thereby reducing the PVP-to-naproxen ratio from 1:2 to 1:39 without impacting the stability of naproxen crystals in suspension. This work provides insights into the excipient requirements at various production stages and introduce the membrane-based diafiltration for precise excipient control after crystallization.

Abstract
A natural polysaccharide-based vehicle is facilely prepared for enantioselective loading of S-naproxen (S-NPX) and its programmed release. Cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (CD-MOF) are synthesized through the coordination of K+ with γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD). Compared with R-NPX, the CD-MOF preferably combines with S-NPX, which can be confirmed by the thermodynamic calculations. The S-NPX loaded CD-MOF (CD-MOF-S-NPX) is grafted with disulfide bond (-S-S-) to improve its hydrophobicity, and the loaded S-NPX is further encapsulated in the chiral cavity of γ-CD by carboxymethyl potato starch (CPS) hydrogels. The intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the CPS hydrogels is prone to be destroyed in mildly basic media (∼pH 8.0), resulting in the swelling of the hydrogels; the -S-S- linkage in the vehicle can be cleaved in the presence of glutathione (GSH), leading to the collapse of the CD-MOF. Therefore, the programmed release of S-NPX can be achieved. Also in this work, the release kinetics is investigated, and the results indicate that the release of S-NPX is controlled by the Higuchi model.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are one of the most frequently used drugs and have been frequently detected in aquatic environments. This paper demonstrates a thermally-activated gelatin-chitosan and amine-functionalized metal-organic framework (UiO-66-NH2) aerogel (CGC-MOF), which was successfully synthesized for the efficient removal of ibuprofen (IBP) and naproxen (NPX). Various characterization tools were used to systematically analyze the microstructure and physicochemical properties of the synthesized aerogel. In addition, the effect of key reaction parameters as well as batch and continuous-flow fixed-bed column experiments were carried out to elucidate the adsorption process. Several functional groups in the biopolymer network, combined with excellent MOF properties, synergistically couple to form an adsorbent with great performance. The mesoporous aerogel activated at 200 °C (CGC-MOF200) exhibited a high specific surface area (819.6 m2/g) that is valuable in providing abundant adsorption active sites that facilitate the efficient adsorption of IBP and NPX. CGC-MOF200 exhibited an excellent removal of IBP and NPX, accounting to 99.28 % and 96.39 %, respectively. The adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Freundlich isotherm models, suggesting heterogeneous and chemisorption adsorption processes. Overall, this work provides new and valuable insights into the development of a promising biopolymer-MOF composite aerogel for environmental remediation.

Abstract
A photocatalytic adsorbent composed of carbon dots (CD) embedded in a metal-organic framework (MOF) of MIL-88 B(Fe) was prepared by solvothermal technique. The synthesized CD@MIL-88 B(Fe) was characterized by different X-ray-based microscopic and spectroscopic methods, as well as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, UV-Vis, FT-IR, DRS, TGA, and photoluminescence (PL) analysis. The prepared adsorbent showed a remarkable photocatalytic activity for eliminating amphotericin B (AmB) and naproxen (Nap) from aqueous solutions under visible light, reaching up to 92% and 90% removal, respectively, with an RSD value of around 5%. The parameters affecting the degradation process of pharmaceuticals were investigated. The optimal conditions for the degradation process were determined, including pH values (3 and 4 for AmB and Nap), photocatalyst concentration (0.2 g L-1), and H2O2 concentration (40-50 mM). Reactive oxidative species were also identified (·OH, ·O2) by examination of different scavengers. The adsorption isotherm and kinetic studies reveal that the synthesized photocatalyst exhibits dual functionality as an effective adsorbent (with maximum adsorption capacities of 42.5 and 121.5 mg g-1 for AmB and Nap) and a photocatalytic agent for removal purposes.

Abstract
Herein, we report the obtaining of new hybrid molecules of amphetamine with different profens (amfens). The obtained amfens are characterized by their melting points, UV, 1H-, 13C-NMR, and HRMS spectra. A complete and detailed mass spectral analysis of the newly obtained derivatives of amphetamine with ibuprofen, flurbiprofen, ketoprofen, naproxen, and carprofen was performed. In vitro inhibition of albumin denaturation of each new compound was assessed, and they showed significant activity. The IC50 values of the obtained amphetamine-profen derivatives ranged from 92.81 to 159.87 µg/mL. This indicates that the new hybrids inherit the anti-inflammatory properties of profens. Using in silico method, the toxicity was also calculated. The obtained results are given in LD50 values. Depending on the route of administration, the amfens are less toxic compared to the standard amphetamine.

Abstract
Simple and fast simultaneous quantifications in water of anti-inflammatory drugs, which belong to the emerging pollutants, represents a great challenge for water quality control. The development of electrochemical methods to meet the simultaneous and concomitant detection requirements depends mainly on the electrode material. The fullerene‑carbon nanofiber (FULL/CNF) and graphene‑carbon nanotubes (GR/CNT) paste electrodes as sensing elements were employed for the first time for the determination of diclofenac (DCF), naproxen (NPX) and ibuprofen (IBP) simultaneously and concomitantly. The comparative morphostructural and electrochemical characterizations of both electrodes were achieved by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Differential-pulsed voltammetry (DPV), chronoamperometry (CA) and multiple-pulsed amperometry (MPA) were used for detection tests. FULL/CNF electrode was suitable to develop a simultaneous DPV-based detection methodology that allowed reaching the lowest limit of detections of 0.230 nM for DCF, 0.310 nM for NPX and 0.180 nM for IBP. GR/CNT electrode did not provide stability for DPV-based detection, but the lowest limits of detection of 0.149 nM for DCF, 0.809 nM for NPX and 0.640 nM for IBP were achieved by MPA-based methodology. Both electrodes, linked to specific detection technique, showed good reproducibility, stability and ability to measure DCF, NPX and IBP simultaneously in aqueous solution. The satisfactory results achieved by analysis of real surface water sample (Bega River, Timisoara city, Romania) indicated that the proposed voltammetric and amperometric methodologies using both electrodes have great potential for practical applications in analysis of different water samples.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical products such as antibiotics, analgesics, steroids, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are new emerging pollutants, often present in wastewater, potentially able to contaminate drinking water resources. Adsorption is considered the cheapest and most effective technique for the removal of pollutants from water, and, recently, membranes obtained by wet filtration method of SWCNT aqueous solutions (SWCNT buckypapers, SWCNT BPs) have been proposed as self-standing porous adsorbents. In this paper, the ability of graphene oxide/single-walled carbon nanotube composite membranes (GO-SWCNT BPs) to remove some important NSAIDs, namely Diclofenac, Ketoprofen, and Naproxen, was investigated at different pH conditions (pH 4, 6, and 8), graphene oxide amount (0, 20, 40, 60, and 75 wt.%), and initial NSAIDs concentration (1, 10, and 50 ppm). For the same experimental conditions, the adsorption capacities were found to strongly depend on the graphene oxide content. The best results were obtained for 75 wt.% graphene oxide with an adsorption capacity of 118 ± 2 mg g-1 for Diclofenac, 116 ± 2 mg g-1 for Ketoprofen, and 126 ± 3 mg g-1 for Naproxen at pH 4. Overall, the reported data suggest that GO-SWCNT BPs can represent a promising tool for a cheap and fast removal of NSAIDs from drinking water resources, with easy recovery and reusability features.

Abstract
This work presents a compilation of binding constant (logKass) values in DMSO-d6/H2O (0.5% m/m) for a variety of receptors with 12 carboxylate anions (formate, acetate, lactate, pivalate, sorbate, hexanoate, benzoate, glyphosate, glucuronate, ibuprofen, naproxen, and ketoprofen). A total of 489 logKass values are listed for 100 anion receptor molecules. Most logKass values originate from previously published articles, along with some values for previously unpublished receptor molecules, spanning a workflow of 8 years. The purpose of this study is to serve as a comprehensive information source for selecting suitable receptor candidates to be used in practical carboxylate sensing applications, such as constructing ion-selective electrodes (ISE-s). To support such decision making, all receptors are presented together with lipophilicity (logPo/w) data.

Abstract
Short peptides capped on the N-terminus with aromatic groups are often able to form supramolecular hydrogels-self-assembled networks of fibrils able to trap water molecules. Typically, these hydrogelators can form stiff gels at concentrations of 0.1 to 1.0 wt%-i.e. they consist of mainly water. The properties of these soft materials mimic those of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of biological tissue and therefore they have found many biomedical uses in tissue engineering, wound healing, drug delivery, biosensing and bioprinting applications. In drug delivery strategies related to cancer therapy, injectable hydrogels can serve as a depot formulation, where a sustained release of the chemotherapeutic from near the tumour site allows reduced doses and, therefore, decreased side effects. To further target cancer cells, folic acid-conjugated hydrogels and nanostructures are often sought, to exploit the overexpression of folate receptors on cancer cells-an approach which can allow the selective cellular uptake of an encapsulated drug. In this present study, two known dipeptide folate receptor ligands (1 and 2) recently identified from a screen of a DNA-encoded compound library, were synthesised and investigated for their hydrogelation ability and cytotoxicity. Compound 1, containing a naproxen capping group, rapidly forms hydrogels at concentrations as low as 0.03 wt%-one of the lowest critical gelation concentrations (CGCs) known for a supramolecular hydrogelator. In contrast, compound 2, which contains a 3-indolepropionic acid capping group, was unable to form hydrogels under a range of conditions and concentrations, instead forming nanospheres with diameters of 0.5 μm. Hydrogels of 1 were characterised by STEM microscopy, rheology, fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism. Both compounds 1 and 2 had no impact on the proliferation of kerotinocytes (HaCaT cells) at concentrations up to 100 μM. Compound 1, containing the NSAID, was tested for anti-inflammatory activity in a human cyclooxygenase-1/2 model. The rate of the release of model drug compounds from within hydrogels of 1 was also investigated.

Abstract
The study aimed to fabricate naproxen sodium loaded in-situ gels of sodium alginate. Different in-situ gel forming solutions of naproxen sodium and sodium alginate were prepared and gel formation was studied in different physiological ions i.e., CaCl2 and Ca-gluconate. The prepared gel formulations were evaluated for different physical attributes such as gelation time, sol-gel fraction, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and in silico molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Drug release studies were carried out in a dialysis membrane using USP dissolution basket apparatus-I. In vivo anti-inflammatory studies were performed in Sprague-Dawley rats having carrageenan-induced hind paw inflammation. Higher polymer concentration in formulations resulted in decreased gelation time and an increased gel fraction. The ATR-FTIR and MD simulation revealed H-bonding between the alginate and naproxen sodium at 3500-3200 cm-1 with a RMSD of ∼2.8 Å and binding free energy ΔGpred (GB) = -10.93 kcal/mol. In vitro drug release studies from F8CAG suggested a sustained release of naproxen sodium. In vivo studies revealed a continuous decrease in swelling degree (≈-5.28± 0.210 mm) in inflamed hind paw of Sprague-Dawley rats over 96 h. The in-situ gel forming injectable preparation (F8CAG) offers a sustained release of naproxen sodium in the articular cavity which promises the treatment of chronic inflammatory conditions such as arthritis.

Abstract
Herein, we review the recent progress in the synthesis of representative nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ibuprofen and naproxen. Although these drugs were discovered over 50 years ago, novel practical and asymmetric approaches are still being developed for their synthesis. In addition, this endeavor has enabled access to more potent and selective derivatives from the key frameworks of ibuprofen and naproxen. The development of a synthetic route to ibuprofen and naproxen over the last 10 years is summarized, including developing methodologies, finding novel synthetic routes, and applying continuous-flow chemistry.

Abstract
The application of a coordination container in biomedicine is hindered by single binding domains and unsatisfactory biostability and biocompatibility. Herein, we designed a sulfonylcalix[4]arene-based decahexanuclear zinc(II) coordination container employing a flexible tetracarboxylate ligand as a linker and utilized it as a novel drug delivery system. The coordination container consisting of one endo and four exo cavities provides multiple binding domains for efficient encapsulation of drug molecules as clearly revealed by systematic host-guest studies using NMR techniques of 1H NMR titration experiments and 2D NOESY and diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy studies. Incorporation of a flexible p-phenylene-bis(methanamino) spacer into the container via the carboxylate linker allowed a stepwise drug loading process through sequential binding at endo and exo cavities, as well as enabling pH-responsive stepwise drug release. The drug-loaded coordination container not only exhibits excellent biostability and biocompatibility but also provides encouraging therapeutic efficiency toward inflammatory macrophages as revealed by in vitro studies. The novel strategy for engineering the endo cavity of a coordination container provides a new approach to achieving controlled drug delivery and opens up new opportunities for designing novel functional supramolecular materials.

Abstract
Layered rare-earth hydroxides have begun to gather increasing attention as potential theranostic platforms owing to their extensive intercalation chemistry combined with magnetic and fluorescent properties. In this work, the potential of layered terbium hydroxide (LTbH) as a platform for simultaneous drug delivery and fluorescence imaging was evaluated. LTbH-Cl ([Tb2(OH)5]Cl·yH2O) was loaded with three nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (diclofenac, ibuprofen, and naproxen) via ion-exchange. Drug release studies in phosphate buffered saline (pH = 7.4) revealed all three formulations release their drug cargo rapidly over the course of approximately 5 hours. In addition, solid state fluorescence studies indicated that fluorescence intensity is strongly dependent on the identity of the guest anion. It was postulated that this feature may be used to track the extent of drug release from the formulation, which was subsequently successfully demonstrated for the ibuprofen loaded LTbH. Overall, LTbH exhibits good biocompatibility, high drug loading, and a strong, guest-dependent fluorescence signal, all of which are desirable qualities for theranostic applications.

Abstract
Fused deposition modelling-based 3D printing of pharmaceutical products is facing challenges like brittleness and printability of the drug-loaded hot-melt extruded filament feedstock and stabilization of the solid-state form of the drug in the final product. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the drug load on printability and physical stability. The poor glass former naproxen (NAP) was hot-melt extruded with Kollidon® VA 64 at 10–30% w/w drug load. The extrudates (filaments) were characterised using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). It was confirmed that an amorphous solid dispersion was formed. A temperature profile was developed based on the results from TGA, DSC, and DMA and temperatures used for 3D printing were selected from the profile. The 3D-printed tablets were characterised using DSC, X-ray computer microtomography (XµCT), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). From the DSC and XRPD analysis, it was found that the drug in the 3D-printed tablets (20 and 30% NAP) was amorphous and remained amorphous after 23 weeks of storage (room temperature (RT), 37% relative humidity (RH)). This shows that adjusting the drug ratio can modulate the brittleness and improve printability without compromising the physical stability of the amorphous solid dispersion.

Abstract
Hydrotropy is a well-established strategy to enhance the aqueous solubility of hydrophobic drugs, facilitating their formulation for oral and dermal delivery. However, most hydrotropes studied so far possess toxicity issues and are inefficient, with large amounts being needed to achieve significant solubility increases. Inspired by recent developments in the understanding of the mechanism of hydrotropy that reveal ionic liquids as powerful hydrotropes, in the present work the use of cholinium vanillate, cholinium gallate, and cholinium salicylate to enhance the aqueous solubility of two model drugs, ibuprofen and naproxen, is investigated. It is shown that cholinium vanillate and cholinium gallate are able to increase the solubility of ibuprofen up to 500-fold, while all three ionic liquids revealed solubility enhancements up to 600-fold in the case of naproxen. Remarkably, cholinium salicylate increases the solubility of ibuprofen up to 6000-fold. The results obtained reveal the exceptional hydrotropic ability of cholinium-based ionic liquids to increase the solubility of hydrophobic drugs, even at diluted concentrations (below 1 mol·kg-1), when compared with conventional hydrotropes. These results are especially relevant in the field of drug formulation due to the bio-based nature of these ionic liquids and their low toxicity profiles. Finally, the solubility mechanism in these novel hydrotropes is shown to depend on synergism between both amphiphilic ions.

Abstract
The UV-visible photodegradation of Naproxen (6-methoxy-α-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid, CAS: 22204-53-1), one of the most used and detected non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the world, and its ecotoxicological consequences were investigated in an aqueous medium. The photo-transformation products were analyzed and the structures of photoproducts were elucidated using gas chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with ultrahigh-resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (LC-FTICR-MS). Seven photoproducts were detected and characterized, photo-transformation mechanisms have been postulated to rationalize their formation under irradiation. In silico Q.S.A.R. (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) toxicity predictions were performed with the Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (T.E.S.T.) and in vitro assays were carried out on Vibrio fischeri bacteria. Some of the obtained photoproducts exhibit higher potential toxicity than Naproxen itself but the whole toxicity of the irradiated solution is not of major concern.

Abstract
In this work we describe the relationship between surface modification of hexagonally ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 and loading/release characteristics of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) naproxen. Mesoporous silica (MPS) was modified with 3-aminopropyl, phenyl and cyclohexyl groups by grafting method. Naproxen was adsorbed into pores of the prepared MPS from ethanol solution using a solvent evaporation method. The release of the drug was performed in buffer medium at pH 2 and physiological solution at pH 7.4. Parent MPSs as well as naproxen loaded MPSs were characterized using physicochemical techniques such as nitrogen adsorption/desorption, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), Zeta potential analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and elemental analysis. The amount of naproxen released from the MPSs into the medium was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It was shown that the adsorption and desorption characteristics of naproxen are dependent on the pH of the solution and the surface functionalization of the host.

Abstract
A poly(l-serine)-modified glassy carbon electrode (PLS/GCE) was fabricated by electropolymerization and used to study the detection of naproxen (NPX), a representative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, in phosphate buffer supporting electrolyte at pH 5.0. Results indicated that the PLS/GCE was capable of determination of NPX at a working potential of 0.92 (vs. Ag/AgCl) in voltammetry mode. Experimental factors such as scan rate, accumulation time, solution pH, initial NPX concentration, and interferences were optimized for NPX determination efficiency. The morphology and elemental distribution of the electrode surface were characterized by ESEM, TEM, PSD, XRD, FTIR, TGA, XPS, and zeta potential. NPX oxidation current increased with increasing analyte concentration and scan rate but decreased with increasing pH. Linear sweep voltammetry calibration curve was established in the NPX concentration range of 4.3-65 μM, with detection limit and average recovery of 0.69 μM (n = 3) and 104 ± 2.5%, respectively. PLS/GCE is simple, accurate, reproducible, and easy for operation, therefore would be cost-effective for the determination of NPX.

Abstract
A flexible two-step, one-pot procedure was developed to synthesize 2-aryl propionic acids including the anti-inflammatory drugs naproxen and flurbiprofen. Optimal results were obtained in the presence of the novel ligand neoisopinocampheyldiphenylphosphine (NISPCPP) (9) which enabled the efficient sequential palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling of aryl bromides with ethylene and hydroxycarbonylation of the resulting styrenes to 2-aryl propionic acids. This cascade transformation leads with high regioselectivity to the desired products in good yields and avoids the need for additional purification steps.

Abstract
Chiral micropollutant analysis in pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) is interesting but challenging. We firstly developed a series of chiral molecularly imprinted polymeric (CMIP) stir bar sorptive extraction coatings by combining a chiral template with chiral functional monomers via a click reaction for naproxen enantiomer analysis in PPCPs. Heterochiral selectivity was observed in the molecule recognition of the CMIP coatings, which demonstrated good adsorption capability for the chiral template and its structurally similar chiral compounds. The coatings also exhibited excellent enrichment capability for chiral analytes in an aqueous matrix. The surface morphology and pore structure of the CMIP coatings were characterized. The molecular interactions between the chiral template and chiral functional monomer were investigated through UV-vis spectroscopy and theoretical calculations to prove the effective interactions existing in the heterochiral MIPs. The CMIP coatings were used to enrich naproxen enantiomers in chiral drug and environmental water samples, and satisfactory recoveries (83.98 %-118.88 %) with a relative standard deviation of 3.49 %-13.08 % were achieved. The heterochiral imprinted coating-based method provided a sensitive, selective, and effective enrichment strategy for chiral micropollutant analysis in PPCPs. This technique is critical for chiral molecule recognition and enantiomer analysis in complex samples.

Abstract
Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is a formulation strategy extensively used to enhance the bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs. Despite this, they are limited by various factors such as limited drug loading, poor stability, drug-excipient miscibility and the choice of process platforms. In this work, we have developed a strategy for the manufacture of high drug loaded ASD (HDASD) using hot-melt extrusion (HME) based platform. Three drug-polymer combinations, indomethacin-Eudragit®E, naproxen-Eudragit®E and ibuprofen-Eudragit®E, were used as the model systems. The design spaces were predicted through Flory-Huggins based theory, and the selected HDASDs at pre-defined conditions were manufactured using HME and quench-cooled melt methods. These HDASD systems were also extensively characterised via small angle/wide angle x-ray scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, Infrared and Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. It was verified that HDASDs were successfully produced via HME platform at the pre-defined conditions, with maximum drug loadings of 0.65, 0.70 and 0.60 w/w for drug indomethacin, ibuprofen and naproxen respectively. Enhanced physical stability was further confirmed by high humidity (95%RH) storage stability studies. Through this work, we have demonstrated that by the implementation of predictive thermodynamic modelling, HDASD formulation design can be integrated into the HME process design to ensure the desired quality of the final dosage form.

Abstract
The use of CO2 as a C1 carbon source for synthesis is raising increasing attention both as a strategy to bring value to carbon dioxide capture technologies and a sustainable approach towards chemicals and energy. The presented results focus on the application of electrochemical methods to incorporate CO2 into organic compounds using ionic liquids as electrolytes, which provides a green alternative to the formation of C-C bonds. In this sense, the current manuscript shows that Naproxen (6-Methoxy-α-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid) can be synthetizing in high yield (89%) and conversion rates (90%) through an electrocarboxylation process using CO2 and ionic liquids. The role of the cathode and solvent, which can potentially enhance the synthesis, is also discussed. The "green" route described in the current work would open a new sustainable strategy for the electrochemical production of pharmaceutical compounds.

Abstract
A hybrid system combining microwave and a microwave discharge electrodeless lamp (MDEL) was proposed to overcome the limitations of conventional TiO2 photocatalysts. The degradation efficiency and mechanism of naproxen were determined using a series of single processes, including conventional TiO2 photocatalyst reactors and a hybrid system that fuses them. Although the degradation efficiency tended to increase after changing the experimental condition of a single process, the optimal conditions existed for these experimental conditions. On the other hand, remarkable synergy was observed in the fused process, whose efficiency was significantly higher than that of the unit process. In particular, the optimal degradation ability was obtained by adding hydrogen peroxide together with microwave irradiation. The seven intermediates in the proposed photocatalytic degradation pathway were generated by the demethylation and hydroxylation by hydroxyl radicals. These results are expected to provide new data on the design of high efficiency photocatalytic systems at low cost.

Abstract
The spectroscopic (FT-IR, FT-Raman, NMR), electronic (UV--Vis.), structural and thermodynamical properties of an anti-inflammatory analgesic called Naproxen Sodium, (s)-6-methoxy-α-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid sodium salt are submitted by using both experimental techniques and theoretical methods as quantum chemical calculations in this work. The equilibrium geometry and vibrational spectra are calculated by using DFT (B3LYP) with 6-311++G (d,p) basis set using GAUSSIAN 09. The vibrational wavenumbers are also corrected with scale factor to take better results for the calculated data. The HOMO-LUMO calculations are carried out on the title compound. The theoretical and experimental NMR peaks were found to be in good agreement. In addition, the detailed study on the Non-Bonding Orbitals, the excitation energies, AIM charges, condensed fukui calculations, thermodynamical properties, Localized Orbital Locator (LOL) and Electron Localization Function (ELF) are also performed. Furthermore, the study is extended to calculate the first order hyperpolarizability and to predict its NLO properties. The docking studies details helped on predicting the binding with different proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Naproxen (NP) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with poor aqueous solubility and low oral bioavailability, which may lead to therapeutic failure. NP causes crucial GIT irritation, bleeding, and peptic and duodenal ulcers. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY This study aimed to engineer and characterize polymer hybrid enteric microspheres using an integrated (experimental and molecular modelling) approach with further development to solid dosage form with modified drug release kinetics and improved bioavailability. MATERIALS AND METHODS NP loaded polymer hybrid enteric microspheres (PHE-Ms) were fabricated by using a modified solvent evaporation technique coupled with molecular modelling (MM) approach. The PHE-Ms were characterized by particle size, distribution, morphology, crystallinity, EE, drug-polymer compatibility, and DSC. The optimized NP loaded PHE-Ms were further subjected to downstream procedures including tablet dosage form development, stability studies and comparative in vitro-in vivo evaluation. RESULTS The hydrophobic polymer EUD-L100 and hydrophilic polymer HPMC-E5 delayed and modified drug release at intestinal pH while imparting retardation of NP release at gastric pH to diminish the gastric side effects. The crystallinity of the NP loaded PHE-Ms was established through DSC and P (XRD). The particle size for the developed formulations of PEH-Ms (M1-M5) was in the range from 29.06 ±7.3-74.31 ± 17.7 μm with Span index values of 0.491-0.69, respectively. The produced NP hybrid microspheres demonstrated retarded drug release at pH 1.2 and improved dissolution at pH 6.8. The in vitro drug release patterns were fitted to various release kinetic models and the best-followed model was the Higuchi model with a release exponent "n" value > 0.5. Stability studies at different storage conditions confirmed stability of the NP loaded PHE-Ms based tablets (P<0.05). The molecular modelling (MM) study resulted in adequate binding energy of co-polymer complex SLS-Eudragit-HPMC-Naproxen (-3.9 kcal/mol). In contrast to the NP (unprocessed) and marketed formulations, a significant increase in the Cmax of PHE-MT1 (44.41±4.43) was observed. CONCLUSION The current study concludes that developing NP loaded PHE-Ms based tablets could effectively reduce GIT consequences with restored therapeutic effects. The modified release pattern could improve the dissolution rate and enhancement of oral bioavailability. The MM study strengthens the polymer-drug relationship in microspheres.

Abstract
Naproxen (NAP) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug which has been widely used and frequently detected in water environments. This study investigated the NAP degradation in the chlorination and UV/chlorine disinfection processes, which usually acted as the last barriers for water treatment. The results showed that both chlorination and UV/chlorine disinfection could remove NAP effectively. At various chlorine dosages (0.1~0.5 mM), the contributions of chlorination and reactive radicals to the degradation of NAP in the UV/chlorine process were calculated to be 50.5~56.9% and 43.1~49.5%, respectively. However, the reactive radicals dominated in NAP degradation in alkaline solutions, while chlorination dominated in acidic conditions. The HCO3- (10~50 mM) slightly inhibited, Cl- (10~50 mM) gradually promoted, and HA (1~5 mg/L) significantly reduced NAP degradation by UV/chlorine process. The degradation intermediates and products were obtained via high-performance liquid chromatography with QE-MS/MS; NAP was degraded by demethylation, acetylation, and dicarboxylic acid pathways during the chlorination and UV/chlorination processes.

Abstract
Although pharmaceutical pollution is a global environmental concern, much remains unknown about the transformation of pharmaceuticals in the wild and their effects on wildlife. In the environment, pharmaceuticals typically transform to some extent into different, structurally related compounds. Pharmaceutical transformation products resulting from exposure to sunlight (i.e., ultraviolet radiation) in surface waters are of particular concern; these products can be more hydrophobic, persistent, and toxic than their parent compounds. In the present study, naproxen, a widely used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, and its phototransformation products were studied to assess the overall persistence and photochemical fate of naproxen. Southern toad (Anaxyrus terrestris) larvae were used as model aquatic vertebrates to evaluate the acute toxicity of naproxen and its phototransformation products singly and in mixtures. The phototransformation products were observed to be more persistent and more toxic than naproxen itself. The slower phototransformation of the phototransformation products relative to naproxen suggests a greater potential to accumulate in the environment, particularly when naproxen is continually released. Mixtures of naproxen and its phototransformation products, in ratios observed during phototransformation, were more toxic than naproxen alone, as predicted by the model of concentration addition and the greater toxicity of the phototransformation products. Together, these results indicate that the ecological risk of naproxen may be underestimated by considering environmental levels of naproxen alone.

Abstract
Organic degradation by zero-valent metal (ZVM)-activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) systems has drawn great attention in water treatment. Among various types of ZVM, zero-valent copper (ZVC) showed greatest activating capacity. However, the disadvantages of the released Cu2+ limit the practical utilization of ZVC. In this study, the activation capacity of four normal-sized copper catalysts, namely, copper sheet, graphene-copper sheet, copper foam, and graphene-copper foam, for PMS was investigated using Naproxen (NPX) as the probe compound. Results showed that the degradation efficiency of NPX increased by 10%, while the release of Cu2+ decreased by 30% by coating the copper with graphene. Stability tests showed that all of the four catalysts exhibited considerable stability in PMS activation. Furthermore, we found for the first time that the hydroxyl radical was the dominant species in the degradation of NPX rather than the sulfate radical, which was proved by ESR and radical scavenging experiments. Finally, six intermediates were identified by HPLC-MS/MS, and the degradation pathways were proposed. This study confirmed the feasibility of graphene coating on metals to achieve the enhancement of PMS activation.

Abstract
We have developed a new competitive protein binding assay (CPBA) based on human serum albumin functionalized silicon dioxide nanoparticles (nano-SiO2-HSA) that can be used for naproxen determination in urine. Compared with a conventional multi-well reaction plate, nano-SiO2 with a high surface-area-to-volume ratio could be introduced as a stationary phase, markedly improving the analytical performance. Nano-SiO2-HSA and horseradish peroxidase-labeled-naproxen (HRP-naproxen) were prepared for the present CPBA method. In this study, a direct competitive binding to nano-SiO2-HSAwas performed between the free naproxen in the sample and HRP-naproxen. Thus, the catalytic color reactions were investigated on an HRP/3,3'5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)/H2O2 system by the HRP-naproxen/nano-SiO2-HSA composite for quantitative measurement via an ultraviolet spectrophotometer. A series of validation experiments indicated that our proposed methods can be applied satisfactorily to the determination of naproxen in urine samples. As a proof of principle, the newly developed nano-CPBA method for the quantification of naproxen in urine can be expected to have the advantages of low costs, fast speed, high accuracy, and relatively simple instrument requirements. Our method could be capable of expanding the analytical applications of nanomaterials and of determining other small-molecule compounds from various biological samples.

Abstract
The photochemical degradation of the pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) has attracted increasing attention. In this study, a deep inspection of the photolysis mechanisms of naproxen and its photoproducts has been performed by employing experimental and theoretical methods. Contributions of different reactive oxygen species (ROS, such as OH, 1O2, and O2-) in the photolysis reaction also have been clarified. Based on the detected intermediates and DFT calculations, several photodegradation pathways of naproxen and its photoproducts have been proved. Furthermore, the deprotonated form of naproxen has been confirmed to be more reactive than the protonated one, and the lowest triplet state of naproxen is the reactive state. The decarboxylation mechanism of naproxen has been fully discussed. Meanwhile, the free energy barriers of OH-induced photolysis reactions (ΔG‡eff(1a) = 7.6 kcal mol-1, ΔG‡eff(4a) = 7.0 kcal mol-1) are much lower than the free energy barriers induced by O2- and 1O2. It proves that OH is the most favourable one among the three ROS. The similar inhabition rates and free energy barriers of reactions induced by O2- and 1O2, respectively, have demonstrated that O2- and 1O2 equally contribute to the degradation. Additionally, the computational results are coincident with the observed experimental findings. Hence, this work has verified a part of naproxen photodegradation mechanism under UV irradiation and brought about a rational way to investigate contributions of different ROS in the complex photochemical system of PPCPs.

Abstract
Various wet ball nanomilling-screening tools for poorly soluble APIs are available which differ in their milling principle, batch size and number of samples. Here, the transferability of results from screening (small to medium-scale) to pharmaceutical production (largescale) was investigated. Wet ball milling in a dual centrifuge (DC) (10-100 mg API, 40 samples in parallel) was used to identify stable nanoformulations. In addition different sized agitator bead mills were used for scale-up to industrial scales. DC-and small-scale agitator milling (AM) resulted in small and virtually identical API-particles. Additionally, similar API-particles were obtained using two different sized agitator bead mills (batch size 1.5 and 30 kg) and applying comparable specific grinding energies (SGE). The SGE used in the trials represents the grinding limit for this API-suspension. Using lower SGEs, AM results in larger API-particles. All used milling tools had no influence on the APIs crystal structure and wear of grinding media (Zr/Y) is low. The study confirmed the importance to choose the right formulation and process parameters, which positively affect grinding efficacy, particle size distribution and wear contamination. The excellent comparability of results obtained from DC-milling and AM significantly reduces the duration for successful and predictable formulation development.

Abstract
As poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) photodegrades with long-term exposure to ultraviolet radiation, it is desirable to develop methods that enhance the photostability of PVC. In this study, new aromatic-rich diorganotin(IV) complexes were tested as photostabilizers in PVC films. The diorganotin(IV) complexes were synthesized in 79-86% yields by reacting excess naproxen with tin(IV) chlorides. PVC films containing 0.5 wt % diorganotin(IV) complexes were irradiated with ultraviolet light for up to 300 h, and changes within the films were monitored using the weight loss and the formation of specific functional groups (hydroxyl, carbonyl, and polyene). In addition, changes in the surface morphologies of the films were investigated. The diorganotin(IV) complexes enhanced the photostability of PVC, as the weight loss and surface roughness were much lower in the films with additives than in the blank film. Notably, the dimethyltin(IV) complex was the most efficient photostabilizer. The polymeric film containing this complex exhibited a morphology of regularly distributed hexagonal pores, with a honeycomb-like structure-possibly due to cross-linking and interactions between the additive and the polymeric chains. Various mechanisms, including direct absorption of ultraviolet irradiation, radical or hydrogen chloride scavenging, and polymer chain coordination, could explain how the diorganotin(IV) complexes stabilize PVC against photodegradation.

Abstract
Santonin, a natural product, was aromatized with molecular iodine as the catalyst. The new compound was characterized as ( S)-methyl-2-(7-hydroxy-5,8-dimethylnaphthalen-2-yl) propanoate (2) based on 2D NMR spectroscopic data. Structurally, compound 2 was highly similar to the anti-inflammatory drug naproxen. The new naproxen analogue had significant potency against cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (IC50 = 31.0 and 66.1 μM, respectively).

Abstract
Cisplatin and several non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been proven to act synergistically or at least additively on several tumor cell lines. Dual-action cisplatin-based Pt(IV) combos containing ketoprofen and naproxen offer good antiproliferative performance on a panel of human tumor cell lines, including a malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) one, a very chemoresistant tumor. The main reason of the increased activity relies on the enhanced lipophilicity of these Pt(IV) conjugates that in turn promotes increased cellular accumulation. A quick Pt(IV)→Pt(II) reduction generates the active cisplatin metabolite. The NSAID adjuvant action seems to be almost independent from cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in the tumor cells under investigation (lung A-549, colon HT-29, HCT 116, SW480, ovarian A2780, and biphasic MPM MSTO-211H), but it seems to rely (at least in part) on the activation of the NSAID activated gene, NAG-1 (a member of the transforming growth factor beta, TGF-β, superfamily), which has been suggested to be involved in NSAID antiproliferative activity.

Abstract
A simple, sensitive and quick method for direct simultaneous chiral analysis of frequently used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (ibuprofen, naproxen and flurbiprofen) in river water by HPLC-MS/MS was established and validated. Chromatographic parameters including the mobile phase composition, pH values, temperature and flow rates were optimized to obtain both satisfactory sensitivity and enantiomeric resolution (Rs≥ 1.0), which suggested the composition and pH values of mobile phase played crucial influence on enantioseparations. The method demonstrated its superiority compared with previous studies regarding to the low MQLs (1.1-37.1 ng/L) and short runtime (< 20 min), enabling quantitative enantiomeric determination of trace level of emerging contaminants in water. The environmental monitoring of receiving water (34 sites along rivers) in Beijing revealed ibuprofen was the most abundant, with mean concentration of 114.9 ng/L and detection frequency of 91%, naproxen was also detectable at all sites from < MQL-43.2 ng/L, both presenting an excess of the S-(+)-enantiomer. Therefore to better understand the ecological risk posed from the trace organic contaminants on the aquatic organisms, chiral pollutants need analyzed at the enantiomeric levels. This is the first to profile the enantiospecific occurrence of NSAIDs in surface water in Beijing, China. It could provide useful information on environmental behaviors of chiral pollutants and facilitate more accurate environmental risk assessment.

Abstract
Nowadays non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are often detected in surface water and groundwater. In this study, effects of environmental factors, i.e., solution pH, ionic strength, temperature and surface-bound organic acids, on bonding of three typical NSAIDs (ketoprofen, naproxen and diclofenac) onto goethite were systematically investigated. Column chromatography, batch experiments, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and surface complexation modeling were used to probe the adsorption mechanisms. Bonding of three NSAIDs onto goethite was totally reversible, ionic strength-dependent and endothermic (adsorption enthalpy 2.86-9.75 kJ/mol). These evidences supported H-bonding mechanism, which was further explained by ATR-FTIR observation and a triple planes model. Surface-bound organic acids (phthalic acid, trimellitic acid and pyromellitic acid) by inner-sphere complexation with goethite were hard to be desorbed. Surface-bound phthalic acid increased the uptake of NSAIDs but surface-bound trimellitic acid and pyromellitic acid reduced their adsorption. The reason is that the adsorbed phthalic acid can result in a more hydrophobic surface while adsorbed trimellitic acid and pyromellitic acid increased the surface negative charge and polarity. Finally, adsorption of NSAIDs onto goethite with/without surface-bound organic acids was well described by a free energy model, in which contributions of interactions (e.g., H-bonding and van der Waals) were evaluated.

Abstract
This research paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of the degradation of three different contaminants including progesterone (PGS), ibuprofen (IBU), and naproxen (NAP) using ZnO as the photocatalyst and ultraviolet (UV) light as a source for catalysts activation. Two operating parameters, namely, catalyst loading and initial concentration of contaminants, were tested in a batch photocatalytic reactor. To demonstrate the large-scale applications, experiments were also conducted in a submerged membrane photocatalytic reactor. It has proven that ZnO photocatalyst degraded the three contaminants very efficiently under almost all the studied experimental conditions, with efficiency rates of 92.3, 94.5, and 98.7 % for PSG, IBU, and NAP, respectively. The photodegradation kinetics study was performed to calculate the reaction rate constant, which is found to follow pseudo-first order kinetics. The membrane photocatalytic reactor was efficient to remove pollutants and it is observed that the degradation rate increases with increasing the membrane oscillation frequency approaching that of the stirred reactor.

Abstract
Naproxen (NPX) degradation was investigated by anodic oxidation both at constant potential and by cyclic voltammetry, using this last technique for optimizing reaction conditions and catalyst properties. Three multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)-promoted electrodes were used (MWCNT, MWCNT-COOH and MWCNT-NH2) and a two steps oxidation process was observed in all the cases. At the optimized conditions (volume of MWCNT = 15 μL), the influence of the scan rate indicates the diffusion-adsorption control of the process. Likewise, the kinetic study of NPX degradation at fix potential, considering two different stirring speeds (250 and 500 rpm), indicates that degradation rate increases with the stirring speed. After 20 h, NPX is degraded even an 82.5%, whereas the mineralization reaches almost 70%, as it was obtained from total organic carbon analysis. The pH effect was also analysed, in the range 5-11, observing a positive effect at low pH. Concerning the surface chemistry of the electrode, MWCNT-NH2, with the highest isoelectric point (4.70), is the most promising material due to the improved interactions with the reactant. From these observations, a pathway is proposed, which includes two steps of electrochemical oxidation followed by subsequent oxidation steps, until mineralization of the NPX, attributed mainly to active chlorine species and ·OH.

Abstract
In this study, novel phosphatidylcholines containing ibuprofen or naproxen moieties were synthesized in good yields and high purities. Under the given synthesis conditions, the attached drug moieties racemized, which resulted in the formation of phospholipid diastereomers. The comperative studies of the cytotoxicity of ibuprofen, naproxen and their phosphatidylcholine derivatives against human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60, human colon carcinoma Caco-2, and porcine epithelial intestinal IPEC-J2 cells were carried out. The results of these studies indicated that phospholipids with NSAIDs at both sn-1 and sn-2 positions (15 and 16) were more toxic than ibuprofen or naproxen themselves, whereas 2-lysophosphatidylcholines (7 and 8) were less toxic against all tested cell lines. Phospholipids with NSAIDs at sn-1 and palmitic acid at sn-2 (9 and 10) were also less toxic against Caco-2 and normal cells (IPEC-J2).

Abstract
N-doped TiO2/SiO2/Fe3O4 as a new magnetic photocatalyst that is active in visible light has been prepared by simple sol-gel method. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, FESEM, EDX, TEM, BET, BJH, VSM, XPS, FT-IR, and DRS-UV/Vis analysis. The photocatalytic effect of synthesized samples on naproxen degradation was studied. The operational parameters were optimized through central composite design to achieve maximum efficiency. The optimum values for maximum efficiency were obtained at pH of 4.29, catalyst mass of 0.06 g, naproxen concentration of 9.33 mg L-1, and irradiation time of 217.06 min. At these optimum conditions, the maximum photocatalytic degradation percentages of naproxen were found to be 96.32% at desirability function value of 1.0. Coupling the electrical current with the photocatalytic process proved that the electrical current was considerably efficient in decreasing the degradation time of removing the naproxen from aqueous solutions. The photocatalytic activity of the nanoparticles was also studied under sunlight. Considering the results provided by UV-Vis spectrophotometry and total organic carbon, it was found that the prepared samples are extraordinarily efficient to degrade naproxen under both purple LED and solar lights. Furthermore, the effect of different scavenger agents on naproxen degradation has been studied.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely found pollutants in the aquatic environment and the currently available treatments for their removal are usually associated with some drawbacks. The aim of this research was to apply a laccase-mediator system for the degradation of some commonly used NSAIDs, namely diclofenac (DCF), naproxen (NAP) and ketoprofen (KP). The biocatalyst was obtained by direct immobilization on chitosan beads of a periodate-oxided laccase from Trametes versicolor. A preliminary study aimed to optimize DCF degradation in the presence of 2,2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonicacid) diammonium salt (ABTS) as mediator. It turned out that pH 3 and a 1:1 M ratio for ABTS:drug were the best experimental conditions under which DCF was degraded at 90% after 3 h. In addition, an efficient reuse of the biocatalyst for up to 5 cycles emerged. DCF was further mixed with naproxen and ketoprofen to test whether laccase was still able to eliminate DCF and eventually act on the other compounds. At just 0.02 U of laccase activity, diclofenac was completely degraded within 3 h, while an almost complete removal for naproxen (∼90%) and a partial removal for ketoprofen (30%) occurred in 7 d when drugs were added at high concentrations (78.5 μM, 98 μM and 108 μM, respectively). After 7 d of degradation, transformation products of diclofenac, identified as hydroxylated compounds, disappeared. Naproxen products were, instead, reduced to very small amounts.

Abstract
The by-products produced by pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) during chlorination are attracting wide concern. Thus, the transformation and toxicity of naproxen (NAP) during the chlorination process were assessed in this study. The transformation of NAP was found to follow pseudo-first-order kinetics, and the first-order rate constant was improved by increasing the NaOCl dose. High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) was successfully applied to identify 14 chlorination products. This study represents the first elucidation and report of the exact structure of the primary chlorine substitution product ((2S)-2-(5-chloro-6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)propionic acid) based on HRMS and 1H NMR. Chlorine will primarily substitute the hydrogen atom on the C7 position of the naphthalene ring to form the mono-chlorine substitution product, as further validated at the theoretical level by quantum chemical calculations. A series of HOCl-induced reactions, including substitution, demethylation, and dehydrogenation, led to the transformation of NAP during the chlorination process. ECOSAR program revealed that the potential aquatic toxicity of the transformation products is significantly higher than that of the parent NAP. Their introduction into the environment may still pose potential risks.

Abstract
This study reports the syntheses of four polymeric sorbents based on nucleophilic substitution of Poly(4-vinylbenzylchloride/ethylene glycol dimethacrylate). Polymerization was executed by a simple thermal initiated bulk polymerization procedure. Ground polymer particles were functionalized through reaction with the nucleophiles triethylamine, imidazole, piperidine and pyrrolidine. Mixed-mode phases were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen sorption porosimetry and potentiometric titration for determination of chloride content. Furthermore, materials were tested and evaluated for enrichment of seven pharmaceutical and endocrine-disrupting compounds at low ng mL-1 levels. Results demonstrate that the imidazole modified sorbent led to high and constant recovery rates for nearly all tested compounds. Therefore, this polymer was further tested for applicability with two environmental samples. Spiked tap and river water showed similar results as in evaluation experiments. Moreover, the developed method was validated regarding linearity, repeatability, instrumental limits and stability of analytes according to international guidelines.

Abstract
Individual treatment processes like biological treatment or ozonation have their limitations for the removal of pharmaceuticals from secondary clarified effluents with high organic matter concentrations (i.e. 17 mg TOC/L). These limitations can be overcome by combining these two processes for a cost-effective pharmaceutical removal. A three-step biological-ozone-biological (BO3B) treatment process was therefore designed for the enhanced pharmaceutical removal from wastewater effluent. The first biological step removed 38% of ozone scavenging TOC, thus proportionally reducing the absolute ozone input for the subsequent ozonation. Complementariness between biological and ozone treatment, i.e. targeting different pharmaceuticals, resulted in cost-effective pharmaceutical removal by the overall BO3B process. At a low ozone dose of 0.2 g O3/g TOC and an HRT of 1.46 h in the biological reactors, the removal of 8 out of 9 pharmaceuticals exceeded 85%, except for metoprolol (60%). Testing various ozone doses and HRTs revealed that pharmaceuticals were ineffectively removed at 0.1 g O3/g TOC and an HRT of 0.3 h. At HRTs of 0.47 and 1.46 h easily and moderately biodegradable pharmaceuticals such as caffeine, gemfibrozil, ibuprofen, naproxen and sulfamethoxazole were over 95% removed by biological treatment. The biorecalcitrant carbamazepine was completely ozonated at a dose of 0.4 g O3/g TOC. Ozonation products are likely biodegraded in the last biological reactor as a 17% TOC removal was found. No appreciable acute toxicity towards D. magna, P. subcapitata and V. fischeri was found after exposure to the influents and effluents of the individual BO3B reactors. The BO3B process is estimated to increase the yearly wastewater treatment tariff per population equivalent in the Netherlands by less than 10%. Overall, the BO3B process is a cost-effective treatment process for the removal of pharmaceuticals from secondary clarified effluents.

Abstract
Hydroxyl radical (•OH) based advanced oxidation technologies (AOTs) are effective for removing non‒steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) during water treatment. In this study, we systematically investigated the degradation kinetics of naproxen (NAP), a representative NSAID, with a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches. The second-order rate constant (k) of •OH oxidation of NAP was measured to be (4.32 ± 0.04) × 109 M-1 s-1, which was in a reasonable agreement with transition state theory calculated k value (1.08 × 109 M-1 s-1) at SMD/M05-2X/6-311++G**//M05-2X/6-31+G** level of theory. The calculated result revealed that the dominant reaction intermediate is 2‒(5‒hydroxy‒6‒methoxynaphthalen‒2‒yl)propanoic acid (HMNPA) formed via radical adduct formation pathway, in which •OH addition onto the ortho site of the methoxy-substituted benzene ring is the most favorable pathway for the NAP oxidation. We further investigated the subsequent •OH oxidation of HMNPA via a kinetic modelling technique. The k value of the reaction of HMNPA and •OH was determined to be 2.22 × 109 M-1 s-1, exhibiting a similar reactivity to the parent NAP. This is the first study on the kinetic and mechanistic aspects of NAP and its reaction intermediates. The current results are valuable in future study evaluating and extending the application of •OH based AOTs to degrade NAP and other NSAIDs of concern in water treatment plants.

Abstract
Magnetic Fe3O4 graphene oxide nanocomposite was synthesized by chemical coprecipitation method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra and X-ray diffraction. A simple, rapid, convenient and environmentally friendly method was developed for separation and pre-concentration of trace amounts of bisphenol A, naproxen and triclosan in wastewater samples by high performance liquid chromatography with magnetic Fe3O4 graphene oxide nanocomposite as the adsorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction. Various parameters possibly influencing the extraction performance such as amount of the adsorbent, extraction time, sample pH and elution conditions were optimized. Under the optimal working conditions, the developed method showed good linearity (R > 0.9997) in the range of 1-200 μg/L, and the limits of detection are between 0.5 and 0.8 μg/L. The enrichment factors are in the range of 81-89. The repeatability of the method, expressed as relative standard deviation, is 3.36-4.26%.
