Aqueous and cosolvent solubility data for drug-like organic compounds
Journal Title: The AAPS Journal - Year 2005, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Recently 2 QSPR-based in silico models were developed in our laboratories to predict the aqueous and non-aqueous solubility of drug-like organic compounds. For the intrinsic aqueous solubility model, a set of 321 structurally diverse drugs was collected from literature for the analysis. For the PEG 400 cosolvent model, experimental data for 122 drugs were obtained by a uniform experimental procedure at 4 volume fractions of PEG 400 in water, 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75%. The drugs used in both models represent a wide range of compounds, with log P values from −5 to 7.5, and molecular weights from 100 to >600 g/mol. Because of the standardized procedure used to collect the cosolvent data and the careful assessment of quality used in obtaining literature data, both data sets have potential value for the scientific community for use in building various models that require experimental solubility data.

Morphology and buoyancy of oil-entrapped calcium pectinate gel beads
A new emulsion-gelation method to prepare oil-entrapped calcium pectinate gel (CaPG) beads capable of floating in the gastric condition was designed and tested. The gel beads containing edible oil were prepared by either...
Vectors for airway gene delivery
Delivery of genes to the airway epithelium for therapeutic purposes seemed easy at first, because the epithelial cells interface with the environment and are therefore accessible. However, problems encountered were more...
Impact of Glycation on Antibody Clearance
Glycation of therapeutic proteins occurs during mammalian cell culture expression and upon administration to patients. Since the chemical attachment of mannose or other sugars via a chemical linker has been shown to incr...
