Simvastatin (SIM), is an inactive lactone, anti-hyperlipidemic drug. The drug belongs to the class II group according to the biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) with low bioavailability due to its low solubility. Adsorption technique is an effective technique for improving the solubility and dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs by using the mesoporous silica. The present study aims to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate of SIM using such technique. Soluplus® and poloxamer 407 were used as surfactants besides magnesium aluminum silicate (MAS) as adsorbent. All the MAS loading SIM formulations were prepared by the solvent evaporation method in different drug: adsorbent: surfactant weight ratios, then evaluated for their percentage yield, drug content, water solubility, dissolution, crystal lattice using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) studies and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) for determination the drug- excipient interaction. All the prepared formula showed improvement of drug solubility. The best result was obtained with formula F8(SIM: MAS: SOLU 1:6:3) that showed, 91.3% yield, 85.5±0.19 % drug content,178.3 -fold increase in solubility compared to solubility of pure drug and 1.6-fold as compared to F6(without soluplus®) and 85.5 % of drug released within 30 minutes with reduced crystallinity of the drug and compatibility between the drug and the additives. Therefore, the adsorption technique can be considered as an efficient method for enhancing the solubility and dissolution rate of SIM.
Local news is an important topic of the press because of its importance to readers. It touches their daily life in one way or another, which makes them interested in and followers of them. Hence the importance of local news, as it interests a wide segment of readers.
There are many sources of newspapers for obtaining local news, as these sources are distributed to the newspaper's own sources and external sources.
Self-sources are the newspaper's own sources, through which it is possible to obtain this news, such as the representatives of the newspaper and its correspondents and the journalists working in it. This is the example in this way.
The external sources are distributed to local and international news agencies and sa
This study aimed to study the inhibition activity of purified bacteriocin produced from the local isolation Lactococcuslactis ssp. lactis against pathogenic bacteria species isolated from clinical samples in some hospitals Baghdad city. Screening of L. lactis ssp. Lactis and isolated from the intestines fish and raw milk was performed in well diffusion method. The results showed that L. lactis ssp. lactis (Lc4) was the most efficient isolate in producing the bacteriocin as well observed inhibitory activity the increased that companied with the concentration, the concentration of the twice filtrate was better in obtaining higher inhibition diameters compared to the one-fold concentration. The concentrate
