Factors affecting paclitaxel content in yew
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2000)The anti-cancer agent paclitaxel has been the subject of intense scientific evaluation since it was first isolated from the bark of the Pacific yew [T. brevifolia] in 1971. It is currently used extensively in the treatment ... -
Factors affecting the pharmacotherapeutic management of chronic non-malignant pain in ageing and elderly populations in Ireland
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2015)Chronic non-malignant pain (CNMP) has emerged as a global health priority due to the prevalence, complexity and presentation of the condition across all age- groups, social classes and ethnicities. There is a high prevalence ... -
Factors affecting the stability and performance of amorphous solid dispersions of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Pharmacy & Pharma. Sciences. Discipline of Pharmacy, 2020)This thesis focuses on factors affecting the stability and performance of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) of poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The poor aqueous solubility of pipeline drugs has ... -
Factors associated with the use of gastrointestinal medicines amoung older people with intellectual disabilities in Ireland
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Pharmacy & Pharma. Sciences. Discipline of Pharmacy, 2020)Background: People with intellectual disabilities (ID) experience multi-morbidity, multiple medication use and have complex health needs. Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders such as constipation and gastroesophageal reflux ... -
Flexible estrogen receptor modulators
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2005)Tamoxifen is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) with a triarylethylene structure, which has estrogenic activity in bone and endometrial tissue, yet antagonises the actions of estrogen in other tissues including ... -
Food supplement use in the community dwelling population aged 50 and over in the Republic of Ireland.
(2013)Summary Objective Use of food supplements in the developed world is increasing in all age groups. With older age, the prevalence of multimorbidity and pharmacotherapy increases. Aim was to explore the prevalence of food ... -
Formation and physicochemical properties of crystalline and amorphous salts with different stoichiometries formed between ciprofloxacin and succinic acid
(2013)Multi-ionisable compounds, such as dicarboxylic acids, offer the possibility of forming salts of drugs with multiple stoichiometries. Attempts to crystallise ciprofloxacin, a poorly water soluble, amphoteric ... -
Formation of low melting point binary systems comprising ketoprofen and an amide local anaesthetic
(2021)Liquid forms of active pharmaceutical ingredients, ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic mixtures (DEMs), offer several potential benefits in respect to advancing pharmaceutical formulations. The aim of this study was to ... -
Formation of stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric ionic liquid and cocrystal multicomponent phases of lidocaine with azelaic acid by changing counterion ratios
(2021)Tuning of physicochemical properties of ionic liquids and crystalline materials is a challenge that opens up unlimited possibilities for expanding applications and controlling biological activity of pharmaceutical ... -
Formulation and characterisation of polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles for the delivery of salmon calcitonin
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2013)The studies in this thesis explored the formulation of various polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles as potential carriers for the delivery of macromolecules. The complexes were formed between a polyanion (hyaluroninc acid, ... -
Formulation of protein and DNA microparticulate vaccine systems
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2003)This study involved investigation of protein and DNA-loaded microspheres manufactured with a range of polymers and under different manufacturing conditions. The polymers used during encapsulation were poly (lactide-co-glycolide) ... -
Formulation, production and biointeraction of micro and nano particulates with potential for use in drug delivery
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2009)The current study involved the preparation of a range of micro and nano particulates from known biocompatible pharmaceutical polymeric excipients: PLGA, chitosan and hyaluronic acid, using physical rather than chemical ... -
Freeze drying of polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles: Effect of nanoparticle composition and cryoprotectant selection
(2018)This work investigates the impact of nanoparticle (NP) composition and effectiveness of cryo-/lyo-protectants in a freeze drying process, which was employed to convert liquid dispersions of polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) ... -
