Machine Learning Predicts Drug Metabolism and Bioaccumulation by Intestinal Microbiota
Over 150 drugs are currently recognised as being susceptible to metabolism or bioaccumulation (together described as depletion) by gastrointestinal microorganisms; however, the true number is likely higher.

Acrylamides with hydrolytically labile carbonate ester side chains as versatile building blocks for well-defined block copolymer micelles via RAFT polymerization [PDF]
En route towards improved delivery systems for targeted chemotherapy, we propose a straightforward approach for the hydrophobic modification of the acrylamide N-(2-Hydroxyethyl) acrylamide (HEAm).

Compressed Oxygen in Drug Stability Experiments
A drug stability experiment accelerated by compressed oxygen was established. The stability of 10% ascorbic acid solution as a model was studied and the kinetic parameters were obtained with the newly established experimental method. Because ascorbic acid degrades under both anaerobic and aerobic conditions, the total rate constant k(total) can be ...

Nanocrystals of Poorly Soluble Drugs: Drug Bioavailability and Physicochemical Stability [PDF]
Many approaches have been developed over time to counter the bioavailability limitations of poorly soluble drugs. With advances in nanotechnology in recent decades, science and industry have been approaching this issue through the formulation of drugs as nanocrystals, which consist of pure drugs and a minimum of surface active agents required for ...

Adaptive HIV-1 evolutionary trajectories are constrained by protein stability [PDF]
Despite the use of combination antiretroviral drugs for the treatment of HIV-1 infection, the emergence of drug resistance remains a problem. Resistance may be conferred either by a single mutation or a concerted set of mutations.
