Synthesis of ester-linked ursolic acid-based hybrid compounds: Potential antibacterial and anticancer agents
(Wiley, 2023)
The molecular hybridization of two or more drugs into a single molecule is an effective drug design approach
to reduce pill burden and improve patient treatment adherence. Ursolic acid-based hybrid compounds were
synthesized ...
New palladium (II) complexes from halogen substituted Schiff base ligands: Synthesis, spectroscopic, biological activity, density functional theory, and molecular docking investigations
(Inorganica Chimica Acta, 2023)
Two novel palladium (II) complexes Pd(L1)2 and Pd(L2)2 derived from ON donor bidentate ligands: 2-(((2-bromo-4-chlorophenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (HL1) and 2-(((-bromo-4-methylphenyl)imino)methyl)phenol (HL2) are reported. ...
Zinc(II) complex of (Z)-4-((4-nitrophenyl)amino)pent-3-en-2-one, a potential antimicrobial agent: synthesis, characterization, antimicrobial screening, DFT calculation and docking study
(Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Ethiopia, 2023)
Herein, the synthesis and characterizations of (Z)-4-((4-nitrophenyl)amino)pent-3-en-2-one (HL) ligand and its Zn(II) complex are reported. The compounds were characterized using elemental and thermogravimetric (TGA) ...
Tandem lc-ms identification of antitubercular compounds in zones of growth inhibition produced by South African filamentous actinobacteria
(MDPI, 2023)
Novel antitubercular compounds are urgently needed to combat drug-resistant Mycobacterium
tuberculosis (Mtb). Filamentous actinobacteria have historically been an excellent source of
antitubercular drugs. Despite this, ...
Preparation and evaluation of pralidoxime-loaded plga nanoparticles as potential carriers of the drug across the blood brain barrier
(Hindawi, 2015)
Pralidoxime is an organophosphate antidote with poor central nervous system distribution due to a high polarity. In the present
study, pralidoxime-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles were prepared and ...
The In vitro biological activity of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles produced using mangifera indica stem bark extract and properties of Its pharmaceutical gel formulation
(Springer, 2023)
This study reports the production of silver nanoparticles using Mangifera indica stem bark (aqueous and methanol) extracts as capping agents and formulation of pharmaceutical gel loaded with the nanoparticles. The extracts ...
Comparative study on the topical and transdermal delivery of diclofenac incorporated in nano-emulsions, nano-emulgels, and a colloidal suspension
(Springer, 2022)
Transdermal delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can be challenging, since the skin possesses a rate-limiting barrier, which may be overcome when APIs possess certain ideal physicochemical properties. The ...
Phytochemical components and GC–MS analysis of Petiveria alliaceae L. fractions and volatile oils
(De Gruyter, 2023)
Phytochemical constituents are important in the determination of plant activities. Their presence in medicinal plants gives their therapeutic values. These phytoconstituents possesses pharmacological activities that include ...
The domestication of the African union model law on medical products regulation: perceived benefits, enabling factors, and challenges
(Frontiers Media, 2023)
Introduction: In 2016, the African Union (AU) Model Law on Medical Products Regulation was endorsed by AU Heads of State and Government. The aims of the legislation include harmonisation of regulatory systems, increasing ...
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 genetic screening using the vervet (Chlorocebus aethiops) model
(Journal of Medical Primatology, 2022)
Background: The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene has come to prominence due to its reported function in the clearance of low-density li-poprotein cholesterol. The vervet monkey (Chlorocebus ...
