Chronic wounds tend to be suffered by people with diabetes mellitus and paralysis, which causes decubitus ulcers. The older the age, low the immunity and the risk of getting infected with the wound become higher. Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus have been reported as the common causes in this case. This has led to reduced quality of life and depression in some patients; even post-amputation surgery sites of the part still have the potential complication of infection. Rhoeo discolor, occurs in many tropical countries that are found to have antibacterial properties because of their phenolic contents.Therefore, an in-silico study has occurred using molecular docking to determine which compound potentially has an antibacterial agent in wound infection, which is seen by its binding affinity of each bacterial receptors.........

Drying is the most important process to maintain the stability of chemical compounds from plants. Chemical compounds from plants that have medicinal properties, one of them is flavonoids which are secondary metabolites. To get high levels of flavonoids, we must keep to how to drain any plants. The aim of this study was to investigate the best drying methods wich obtained higher levels of flavonoids. The study was such an experimental analytical research consisting of two groups. The herbs was dried by two different methods aerated and sun heating. Extraction was conducted by maceration with 70% ethanol solvent. Flavonoid levels were calculated using UV-Vis spectrofometry. The average flavonoid content in the aerated group and the sun heating group 2 mg/gram and 1.89 mg/gram respectively.

Nanopharmaceuticals represent an emerging field where the sizes of drug particles or a therapeutic delivery system work at the nanoscale. Nanotechnology can offer the advantages of increasing solubility and bioavailability of delivering drugs. Nearly 40% of drugs coming to the market nowadays are having poor solvency-related issues and 70% of molecules in the discovery are in effect fundamentally insoluble in water, a long-standing issue is the difficulty of delivering the appropriate dose of a particular active agent to the specific disease site. The poor solubility of many drugs along with a slow dissolution rate is a major research and industrial problem for pharmaceutical scientists and industries. Nanopharmaceuticals have enormous potential in addressing this failure of traditional therapeutics which offers site-specific targeting of active agents. Such precision targeting via nanopharmaceuticals reduces toxic systemic side effects, resulting in better patient compliance....

Background: Ketoprofen (KETO) is an example of drugs with limited solubility and high permeability that are classified as biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS) class II. Its poor water solubility can give rise to formulation problems and reduce its therapeutic efficiency and bioavailability. Materials and Methods: A simple solution mixing method was used to formulate KETO into solid dispersion with cationic hydrophilic polymers; Eudragit® E (EE) and chitosan (CH). These solid dispersions were prepared at various drug:polymer ratios; 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 by solvent evaporation methods. Physiochemical characteristics including %yield, %drug content, and in-vitro.....
