Micronutrients play a central part in metabolism and in the maintenance of tissue function. An adequate intake therefore is necessary, but provision of excess supplements to people who do not need them may be harmful. Single micronutrient deficiency states are comparatively easily recognised and treated. Subclinical deficiency, often of multiple micronutrients, is more difficult to recognise, a…
Micronutrients, an umbrella term used to collectively describe vitamins and trace elements, are essential components of nutrition. Those requiring alternative forms of nutrition support are dependent on the prescribed nutrition regimen for their micronutrient provision. The purpose of this paper is to assist clinicians to bridge the gap between the available guidelines’ recommendations and th…
The process of drug absorption is a critical determinant in the pharmacokinetics of therapeutic agents. Among the various factors influencing drug absorption, the molecular size stands out as a key parameter. This article delves into how molecular size affects drug absorption, exploring the mechanisms involved, the challenges presented, and the strategies employed to optimize drug delivery for …
The stability of biologically produced pharmaceuticals is thelimiting factor to various applications, which can be improved by formulationin solid-state forms, mostly via lyophilization. Knowledge about the proteinstructure at the molecular level in the solid state and its transition uponrehydration is however scarce, and yet it most likely affects the physical andchemical stability of the biol…
Coating the solid dosage form, such as tablets, is considered common, but it is a critical process that provides different characteristics to tablets. It increases the value of solid dosage form, administered orally, and thus meets diverse clinical requirements. As tablet coating is a process driven by technology, it relies on advancements in coating techniques, equipment used for the coating …
