Full textAbstract:
In a long and distinguished career, A. H. Church FRS, professor of chemistry successively at the Royal Agricultural College in Cirencester and the Royal Academy of Arts in London, contributed original work to a wide range of chemical topics. As a talented painter he became an expert in the chemistry of paints and painting and was the obvious person, in 1894, to be entrusted with the conservation of the important frescoes in the Palace of Westminster, which had deteriorated with the passage of time and suffered severely in the unfavourable atmospheric conditions of Victorian London. Church identified airborne sulphuric acid as the chief destructive agent, and succeeded in halting further decay of the murals by judicious procedures, some of them of his own devising, and ensured at a critical juncture the eventual survival of these threatened art treasures. Church's 12 years’ activities in this area, being published exclusively as Parliamentary Papers, remained largely unknown except to the officials and Commissions directly concerned with the problem, but as a significant achievement in his life's work they merit due attention and credit.

Abstract Aim To investigate the employment, the desire to work, the work habits and preferences of the students from the pharmaceutical specialties in Bulgaria. Secondary objectives: To analyze the possibilities for employment, to assess its lawfulness, to analyze existing vicious practices, to establish the main problem in fitting together the academic learning process and the work activity. Materials and methods This was a pilot, retrospective-prospective, longitudinal survey in two centers. We developed a survey questionnaire containing 28 questions of both the open-ended and closed-ended types. The data collection was done using the “Direct individual poll” method. he target group consisted of 165 students from pharmaceutical specialties – pharmacy students from Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy, Sofia University “Sv. Kliment Ohridski”, and Bachelor-pharmacists from the Medical College, University “Prof. Dr. Assen Zlatarov”, Bourgas. The data were processed with the SPSS software. Results The results are presented in two parts: the first part refers to Bachelors of Pharmacy, and the second – to Masters of Pharmacy. In their majority, the pharmacy students work during their academic studies – 86.4%. The main stimulus for starting work is of financial origin. Of all students working, 56.8% were hired on an employment contract, while up to one-third worked without any contract at all. In the case of assistant pharmacists 4 45.3% of the respondents worked, and the majority of the respondents did it for financial reasons (66.7%). 86.2% had a signed employment contract, but 67.9% were insured on the basis of the minimum salary. Most commonly the students were working in the field of their future specialty in the pharmacy network. Conclusion The students indicated difficulties in the process of combining their work activity and their studies, a negative attitude to the legal framework and easily discernible negative attitude towards the main field of fulfillment also by the Masters of Pharmacy – working in a pharmacy.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract University of Georgia, College of Pharmacy, Department of Medicinal Chemistry, Athens, GA 30602 A flow-injection method is presented for the determination of propantheline bromide, based on electrochemical oxidation at the glassy carbon electrode. The amperometric method can determine propantheline bromide in the presence of phenobarbital, commonly found in its combination dosage forms. The procedure is stability-indicating for propantheline when an ether extraction of the dosage form is done before amperometric detection. At the electrode potential of + 1400 mV, the calibration curve is linear in the 2-16 p.g/mL concentration range, and minimum detectability is 20 ng (signal-to-noise ratio of 2). When applied to the analysis of propantheline bromide in selected pharmaceutical dosage forms, the method shows good accuracy and precision. Although automation was not used in this study, the method could readily be incorporated in automated systems because it uses the technique of continuous analysis in a flowing stream

Full textAbstract:
The main goal of this study was to examine the impact of blended learning on the academic achievement of undergraduate students in the general chemistry (CHE101) course. The participants' learners of the study were (326) learners, who were randomly split into two groups, one of which taught by using blended learning (empirical group A, n = 163) and the other which with taught by using the conventional method (control group B, n = 163). To accomplish the objectives of the study, the researchers prepared the study tool, which is an achievement test, after confirming its validity and reliability. Data analyses showed that there is a statistically significant difference among the mean scores of learners in the two study groups on the achievement test, for the benefit of empirical group learners, who taught through blended learning. Moreover, the results revealed that achievement varied according to the College of the learners in the empirical group (in favor of those students of Pharmacy and Health Sciences College). However, there is no statistically significant difference in students according to the students’ gender variable and, according to the Academic year variable. The study recommended that blended learning be used more widely to cover different sectors of education.

Full textAbstract:
In this work are presented the results obtained during the application of the ludic activity on some chemical concepts. The ludic helps students to be motivated by learning during the teaching process. Thus, students are able to assimilate abstract chemical concepts more effectively using some differentiated activity of low cost and in the classroom itself. Not needing another physical space of the school for this activity. During the application of the same, colored styrofoam balls of different sizes were required to represent the different chemical elements present in the chemical structures presented to the students. This case study happened in the second half of 2014, that is, after the teacher of the discipline presented the programmatic contents in a traditional way for the students of the first high school series of the José Bonifácio State College, a school located in the municipality of Paranaguá, Paraná, Brazil. In the first class, before starting the ludic activity, a multiple-choice evaluation was applied to evaluate how much the students remembered the contents previously developed by the teacher of the discipline in a traditional way (Annex I). In the second class, the ludic activity was applied. In the third class, another evaluation was applied, with more difficulty in the questions, to detect the level of learning of the content worked in a ludic way (Annex II). From the results obtained, in the traditional teaching method, only 7.2% of the students evaluated were able to score above the average value of the questions. Already after the application of the ludic activity, 97.3% of the students surveyed achieved a set number above the average value of the questions. This fact demonstrated the methodological efficiency used, as well as the reality that differentiated activities really motivate learning, as well as allowing students to assimilate and store this knowledge for a longer period of time.

Full textAbstract:
When students learn a calculus construct, both a concept image as well as a concept definition is imprinted in their mind, and because of it, concrete and real-life examples become a prerequisite for a contextually rich learning environment for the abstractions inherently present in calculus. In the light of aforementioned propositions, the current study focusses on delving into several issues, few of the prominent ones include the epistemological nature of calculus curriculum in India’s senior-secondary schools, role of Indian calculus teachers in students’ cognition, possibility of enumeration of characteristics of a successful calculus teacher with regards to India’s socio-cultural milieu, challenges regarding complete immersion of calculus in manipulation of symbols that eventually give rise to cognitive obstacles, interrelationship between teachers’ calculus content knowledge and their pedagogical practices, effect of secondary school calculus on performance of Indian students’ college calculus, and the nature of effect on Indian learners having calculus in school on their procedural and conceptual performance. For this extensive study, data were collected from PGTs and Assistant/Associate Professors having more than 8 years of calculus teaching experience drawn from 76 different schools, colleges and universities belonging to 23 different states and union territories of India. A total of 323 teachers took part in this study. Multiple methods of data collection were used including naturalistic observation, structured interviews, classroom observations, focussed group interviews, and informal discussions, and these were done both before and after the classroom teaching. The researcher transcribed the interviews, identified emerging and repeated themes, and used NVivo and Concordance software to conduct content and classroom discourse analysis, with simple counting methods and applied grounded theory approach using which empirical data were thematically categorized and in the process of it, employed the induction approach. The researcher analyzed the transcripts using N5 (NUD*IST 5.0; QSR International, Melbourne) with the grounded theory approach. This research study is purely qualitative in nature and its framework lies within the interpretative paradigm. The current study was carried out between June 2016 and March 2019. Findings indicate that there are lots of cognitive obstacles in understanding the concepts inbuilt in calculus: two of the prominent ones that came out from the study include the one related to intuitions and the other related to linguistic/representational aspects.

Abstract Human history is also a chronicle of battling against diseases. Thanks to the rapid advancement of life science and biotechnologies such as gene editing and deep sequencing, recent decades have seen more and more untreatable illnesses on the verge of being conquered. However, an efficient drug-innovation system involves multiple driving forces—policy stimulation and commercial interests play important roles, besides advances in science and technology. Therefore, establishing the synergism among various driving forces is essential for new drug discovery and development. As the most populous country in the world, China has the largest population of a broad spectrum of diseases, offering a unique environment for research and development in biomedicine and disease therapies. Although most pharmaceutical companies in China have been focused on making generic drugs in the past, some efforts in developing first-in-class drugs are paying off, especially in the small-molecule drugs. What are the emerging trends in drug discovery? What does Artificial Intelligence (AI) bring to drug development and medical treatments? In the future, how will China take advantage of abundant resources and proactive policies to accelerate drug development? Recently, NSR organized a forum focusing on these issues, with the attendance of five distinguished domestic pharmaceutical scientists.

Full textAbstract:
The history of the Dunham family goes back to the researches of Kingsley Dunham's grandfather, Rev. Charles Dunham (1848–1942), a Methodist Minister and diarist who, at the age of 72, brought together facts and recollections of the Dunham family. Apparently the family migrated from East Anglia and settled in the Bedford area for 200 years, centred on the village of Shillington. By the middle of the nineteenth century the family were bootmakers and shoemakers and moved to north London. Kingsley Dunham's father, Ernest Pedder Dunham, was trained in estate management at the Duke of Bedford's office in Trafalgar Square, and in 1904 he was given a position in the Pitt-Rivers estate office at Hinton St Mary, Dorset. To here he brought his bride, Edith Agnes Humphreys, to live at Newton House, Sturminster Newton. The first child, Kingsley Charles Dunham, was born on 2 January 1910. The family's time in Dorset was short, because Ernest Dunham's post came to an end in 1913 and be obtained a new appointment at Lord Boyne's estate office at Brancepeth near Durham. Although this estate was later sold to the Duke of Westminster, Ernest Dunham stayed on as agent throughout his career. Kingsley Dunham's mother Edith was a trained schoolteacher and chapel organist, and she gave him the foundations of his education and an introduction to music. Aged seven years he joined the school on the estate, Brancepeth Village School. Here he was well prepared to sit for a County Scholarship in the spring of 1921, when he was 11 years old. Dunham won the scholarship and entrance to the Durham Johnston School, a notable secondary school in the district. The teaching at the Johnston School was extremely efficient and he flourished, developing a particular interest in physical science and mathematics. His hobby was music and he was taught the organ at Durham Cathedral by the Canon Precentor, A.D. Culley. He was also a chorister at St Brandon's Church, Brancepeth, for five years, where, despite his Methodist background, the liturgy of the Anglican prayerbook made a deep and lasting impression. He was head of school in 1927 and sat for a Durham University Open Foundation Scholarship, winning a junior award. Thus, early in October 1927, aged 171/2, Dunham went up to Hatfield College, University of Durham, a scholar and later organ scholar. He was advised to read honours in chemistry with two auxiliary subjects, for which he chose physics and geology. The chemistry course was enjoyable, but the real joy was the geology course, with lectures on physical fundamentals given by Professor Arthur Holmes (FRS 1942) and practical work and fieldwork with Dr William Hopkins. The geology course and particularly the fieldwork proved to be life changing. At the end of the first year, Dunham was encouraged to continue with geology and found himself the only honours candidate in geology in his year, with almost individual attention from Professor Holmes and Dr Hopkins.

Full textAbstract:
The objective of this study was to point out multi-dimensional role of a pharmacist with a special emphasis on the hospital pharmacist. Apharmacist is a person who is involved in designing, creating or manufacturing of a drug product, dispensing of a drug, managing and planning ofa pharmaceutical care. They are experts on the action and uses of drugs, including their chemistry, pharmacology and formulation. Theprofessional life of a hospital pharmacist might seem insignificant as compared to that of doctors, but actually they are highly trained healthprofessionals who plays important role in patient safety, patient compliance, therapeutic monitoring and even in direct patient care. With thepassage of time and advancements in health care services and pharmaceuticals, the role of a hospital pharmacist has become more diversified. Toa career, a hospital pharmacist must possess a diploma/degree in pharmacy from an accredited pharmacy college and must be registered with thestate pharmacy council of their respective region. In this study, we have assessed the behavior, communication skills, qualifications of thepharmacist, prescription handling ability and other factors to evaluate the diversified role of hospital pharmacist and their comparison withpharmacists practicing in rural and urban areas. Current surveys show that the pharmacists are not practicing as per the standard due to lack ofproper guidelines and watch over their practicing sense. The rules and guidelines prescribed by the Food and drug administration (FDA) andIndian pharmacopeia commission (IPC) were not followed by the pharmacist.

The research work aims to develop a bioanalytical method using liquid chromatography and validated for the determination of canagliflozin by using an internal standard. Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Smt. Kishoritai Bhoyar College of Pharmacy, New Kamptee, Nagpur (MS). Isocratic chromatography separation was achieved on an LC system with PDA detector on an ACE C18 (150mm× 4.6mm × 5µm) column using a mobile phase composition of acetonitrile: ammonium acetate buffer in the ration of 50:50 v/v (pH 4.5), orthophosphoric acid is used to adjust pH of mobile phase and the flow rate at 1.0ml/ min. and estimation was carried out at 291 nm. The retention time of a drug was 4.633 minutes. The method was validated for several parameters (specificity, linearity, precision, and accuracy) and also successfully applied for the pharmacokinetic in female rats. Calibration plot was linear (r2 > 0.9973) over the concentration range of 5-30 µg/ml for canagliflozin. The high recovery and low relative standard deviation (%RSD) confirm the suitability of the method. The result of Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) were found to be 0.1099 μg/ml and 0.3331 μg/ml, respectively.

Full textAbstract:
Aim: The study sought to assess the quality of coconut oil extracted from fresh copra milk by Traditional fermentation(FWCE) and from dry copra balls by continuous processing using expellers(TDCE,DMCE) method with respect to moisture content (MC), free fatty acid (FFA) content, Acid value (AV) and Saponification value in comparison with Food safety and standards authority of India.
Methodology: Three samples of coconut oil were taken from major processing centers in east Godavari district (AMP, SML, KRG) for quality determination. Similarly three samples of coconut oil were prepared from fresh grated coconut milk in the Medicinal chemistry laboratory at Korangi College of pharmacy and three samples were prepared from dry coconut cups. Replicate titer values of each of the nine (09) oil samples obtained were compared with brand double refined oil and the averages were taken into consideration. The AOAC and AOCS methods were used in the analyses and the results compared with Standards provided by Food safety and standards authority of India, Coconut Development Board, Kochi.
Results: The results showed that 50% of the total fermented oil sample had high moisture content than standard and expected to undergo oxidative rancidity. According to the standards, 100% of the oil samples had free fatty acids and acid value within acceptable range indicating no signs of rancidity.
Conclusion: There was a significant difference in saponification value, free fatty acid profile and moisture content of Traditional fermented (FWCE) and dry copra balls by continuous processing expellers (TDCE, DMCE) method. The ANOVA (P<0.05) showed that there were significant differences in the MC, FFA, AV of oils produced among the processing centers and that produced in laboratory. The processes involved in all the extraction centers vary and might have accounted for that. The results indicate that the coconut oils produced in both the cases meet the standards however new technologies in processing should be adopted to improve the quality to meet the standards.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Menopause is a physiological phenomenon that can strongly affect the quality of life (QOL) of women.
Objectives: To analyzes the menopausal associated symptoms among contributors and their effect on quality of life. To also investigate sociodemographic factors affecting QOL.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 188 perimenopause and menopausal Yemeni women selected randomly from outpatient clinics of the main public hospitals in Sana'a, Yemen. Data was acquired using the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life (MENQOL) questionnaire.
Results: The mean age at menopause was found to be 47±3.4. The majority of participants were postmenopausal (71.27 %), and (71.80 %) were married. The most prevalent symptoms were aching muscles and joints (55%), dissatisfaction with personal life (37.7%), night sweat (35%) and avoidance of intimacy (30%). The total scores of menopausal quality of life for each MENQOL domain revealed that the maximum mean score was recorded for physical domain (42.81± 17.87), followed by psychosocial (14.11±5.72), then sexual (6.93±2.46), and finally vasomotor domain (4.78±3.10).
Conclusion: The physical and psychosocial domains had upper mean MENQOL scores than vasomotor and sexual domains. There is a need to educate women about menopause and its symptoms and the need to seek medical advice from specialists and find a center for that.

Synthesis/preparation of Lamotrigine (LMN) complexes with β-CD, Caffeine, Nicotinamide, EDTA and
Development of a new reverse phase liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the investigation of Lamotrigine in rat plasma after oral administration and pharmacokinetic assessment of Lamotrigine.
Study Design: The present work describes the formation of LMN drug complexes with β-Cyclodextrin, Caffeine, Nicotinamide and Disodium EDTA. Physical mixture, kneading and solvent evaporation methods were used to prepare LMN complexes (In ratios 1:1, 1:2, 2:1). Further characterization was performed by UV, FTIR, PXRD, and DSC. A reverse phase HPLC method was developed for the investigation of LMN in rat plasma using internal standardization method after oral administration of LMN and its complexes.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Smt. Kishoritai Bhoyar College of Pharmacy, RTMN University, Nagpur, between July 2018 and June 2019.
Methodology: LMN complexes with β-CD, Caffeine, Nicotinamide, EDTA was prepared in three ratios i.e. 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 and characterized by UV, FTIR, PXRD, and DSC. In-vitro Solubility study was performed by saturation solubility study, further % practical yield, drug content, melting point was determined. In-vitro dissolution study of prepared complexes was performed in dissolution apparatus using the paddle method, according to USP Type II. Dissolution studies were carried out using 900 mL 0.1M HCl at 37± 0.5°C at 50 revmin−1 (US FDA guidelines).The interaction of LMN with these hydrophilic complexing agents was characterized by UV, FTIR, PXRD and DSC.
A reverse phase HPLC bioanalytical method was developed and validated as per ICH guidelines for the quantitative determination of LMN in rat plasma using internal standardization method (HTZ) after oral administration of LMN and its complexes. The method was successfully applied for the pharmacokinetic study in rat. The pharmacokinetic parameter like AUCt, AUCi, MRTi, Cmax, Tmax, t1/2, were calculated using pharmacokinetic software PK solver 2. The efficient separation was carried out for High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method on Eclipse XDB-C18 (150×4.6×5 µ) column using a mobile phase consisting of filtered and degassed mixture of potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and Methanol in the ratio 65:35 v/v at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min and UV detection at 307 nm.
Results: The LMN complexes were successfully prepared and characterized by UV, FTIR, PXRD, and DSC from which solvent evaporation method was found to be best as per result of in-vitro dissolution study. In-vitro dissolution study reveals that LMN-Caffeine (C1) and LMN-NTM (N1) complexes showed 100.14 and 100.01% drug release at 15 min and 20 min respectively as compared to pure drug (LMN) which shows only 50.56% drug release at 75 min.
LMN concentration in blood plasma reached (Cmax) was found to be 19.4732 µg/mL at Tmax of 5h, Whereas Cmax of LMN complexes were found to be 48.4876 (B1), 72.2160 (C1), 62.2739 (N1) and 49.3170 (E1) µg/mL at Tmax of 5h out of which complex C1 and N1 in the present study resulted in a sharp increase in Cmax. All complexes showed 4 to 5 time enhancement of Cmax as compared to LMN.. The results demonstrated that complexes of Lamotrigine were successful strategy to improve the solubility and dissolution behavior of Lamotrigine. The complex B1 shows maximum t1/2 and MRTi of 36.224 h and 52.441 h as compared to C1, N1 and E1 having t1/2 of 14.1575, 16.258 and 21.702 h and MRTi of 19.997, 22.994 and 30.883 h respectively. Hence B1 required lesser dosing frequency as compared to other complexes.
Conclusion: The Lamotrigine complexes were prepared and confirmation of prepared complexes was done by physical characterization (FTIR. DSC, PXRD and UV) and solubility determination by saturation solubility study. The bioanalytical method was developed for estimation of plasma drug concentration of LMN. The method was validated according to ICH guidelines to estimate the mean plasma concentration of LMN after oral administration using internal standardization method (HTZ). Method was reproducible and high recovery of LMN from its complexes was achieved. The method was found to be highly satisfactory sensitive, accurate, linear and specific.
