"Amedra's business may be to corner a niche market for a pharmaceutical agent," Kesselheim and colleagues wrote.
Though Salvinorin A, because of its debilitating effects, is unlikely to become a pharmaceutical agent itself, its chemistry may enable the discovery of valuable derivatives.
The selectivity of a pharmaceutical agent is crucial for its application as a drug.
Release of the pharmaceutical agent is affected by the degradation characteristics and/or by the swelling of the polymer.
Alcohol was the commonest toxin involved (26%), but paracetamol (acetaminophen) was the most common pharmaceutical agent (33%).
Understanding these physiological and evolutionary dynamics, it was feasible to develop a strategy for a new pharmaceutical agent and its molecular target.
The guanidyl derivative of Neu5Ac, zanamivir, has been chemically synthesized as a novel pharmaceutical agent to produce neuraminidase inhibitors which are used to treat influenza infections.
This study reports the feasibility of using supercritical fluid technology to process in one step a porous matrix loaded with a pharmaceutical agent for tissue engineering purposes.
A quality assurance professional with an analytical chemistry background might be challenged by the reality that medium formulations do not exhibit potency analogous to a pharmaceutical agent.
Recently, gene therapy, the use of DNA as a pharmaceutical agent, has been extensively studied in a broad range of diseases including tumors, which can achieve a relative long-term stable expression of therapeutic proteins [13 16].
Due to the potential for pharmaceutical agent hosting shown by Bein and co-workers [84], Orellana-Tavra et al. have utilised amorphous UiO-66(Zr) as a host for the model drug molecule, calcein [85].
