Penetration-enhancing solvents may modify diffusional routes through the stratum corneum and the partitioning of drugs into these pathways. To investigate the mechanisms of action of enhancers, steady-state fluxes were measured in vitro for polar methanol, nonpolar octanol, and an intermediate

The role of lipophilicity in drug discovery and design is a critical one. Lipophilicity is a key physicochemical property that plays a crucial role in determining ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) properties and the overall suitability of drug

Copper-62-pyruvaldehyde bis(N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) copper II (62Cu-PTSM) has been proposed as a generator-produced positron-emitting tracer for perfusion imaging. To evaluate the characteristics of 62Cu-PTSM as a cerebral perfusion tracer, brain PET images of 62Cu-PTSM were compared with cerebral blood flow (CBF). Following

Polyparameter linear free energy relationships (pp-LFERs) can predict partition coefficients for a multitude of environmental and biological phases with high accuracy. In this work, the pp-LFER substance descriptors of 40 established and alternative flame retardants (e.g., polybrominated diphenyl ethers, hexabromocyclododecane

The development of materials to support bone regeneration requires flexible fabrication technologies able to tailor chemistry and architecture for specific applications. In this work we describe the preparation of ceramic-based inks for robotic-assisted deposition (robocasting) using Pluronic F-127 solutions. This
