    Buccal delivery is considered a convenient route for the administration of drugs intended for both local and systemic delivery. Buccal mucoadhesive drug delivery systems (BMDDS) are drug-loading carriers with the buccal bioadhesive function, which can persistently adhere to oral mucosa and thus continue to release drug to administration place. Buccal bioadhesive polymer is the crucial point for BMDDS to achieve sustained adherence and release. This paper
    illustrates the similarities and differences between buccal bioadhesive polymers and other bioadhesive polymers, lists the advantages of BMDDS, describes characteristics of oral mucosa and the basic situation of mucoadhesion, reviews the bioadhesive polymers commonly used in buccal mucoadhesive delivery and summaries some of the commercial buccal mucoadhesive formulations.

    To improve the anaerobic digestion efficiency of spiramycin fermentation wastewater, the stability and performance of a pilot-scale four-stage anaerobic system (FSAS) were studied at different organic loading rates (OLR) for 134 d. In the process of OLR lifting, indicators such as pH value, chemical oxygen demand (COD), and spiramycin concentration were observed. The results showed that when the average influent COD was 11 320 mg/L at the hydraulic
    retention time (HRT) of 12 d, the average effluent COD was 1 023 mg/L and COD removal efficiency reached 91%.In the anaerobic digestion, it was found that spiramycin was degraded from 41.8 mg/L to 11.3 mg/L and its antibacterial activity could not be detected through antimicrobial susceptibility testing after the treatment by FSAS. In the process of spiramycin wastewater treatment, FSAS had the advantage of high COD removal efficiency and residual spiramycin
    degradation, which could provide some guidance for the anaerobic treatment of antibiotic wastewater.

    Meloxicam (MLX) has been considered as one of the comparatively efficient antipyretic-antipyretics. However, its poor water solubility has limited the clinical applications. Recently, nanosuspension (NS) technology has been successfully used to tackle the formulation problem of poorly soluble drugs. To improve the dissolution velocity of MLX, the MLX nanosuspension was prepared by pH-dependent dissolving-precipitating/high speed shearing method. The process and formulation parameters were optimized by a single factor test with average particle size (PS), polydispersity index (PDI) and stability as the indexes. The optimal formulation and process were as follows: poloxamer 407(P407) and Tween-80 (T80) (1∶1, w/w) was used as the stabilizers for MLX nanosuspension and the ratio of the mixed stabilizers to MLX was 1∶2 (w/w); the speed and time of high speed shearing were 13 000 r/min and 2 min. The validation results of three batches of the optimal MLX nanosuspension showed that the particle size was within 200 nm and PDI was about 0.2, and the fluctuations of particle size and PDI were within 30 nm and 0.03 after storage for 7 d under room temperature. The results of scanning electron microscopy showed that MLX nanosuspension was irregular oval-shaped small particles with smooth surface. In pH 7.4 phosphate buffer, the dissolution at 5 min of the MLX nanosuspension was (91.68±3.26)%,whereas the coarse suspension of MLX was (50.45±3.13)% at 60 min. The dissolution of MLX nanosuspension
    was significantly higher and faster than the coarse suspension, which indicated that MLX nanosuspensions had a significant increase in the extent of dissolution.

    The nanoparticles loaded with docetaxel (1) were prepared with poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) as carriers by ultrasonic emulsification-solvent evaporation method, then coupled with pisum sativum agglutinin (PSA) after activated by glutaraldehyde to obtain the title nanoparticles (PSA-PHB-1-NPs). The modification efficiency of PSA was (50.58±0.15)% determined by gel permeation chromatography-high performance liquid chromatography (GPC-HPLC)
    method. To improve the storage stability of the PSA-PHB-1-NPs colloid solution, the freeze-drying process was carried out. The effects of type and concentration of cryoprotectant, temperature and time of pre-freezing process and total freezedrying time on the properties of the lyophilized product were investigated. The optimal parameters were as follows: 2% mannitol was used as the cryoprotectant and the colloid solution was pre-frozen for 12 h at -80 ℃, then dried for 48 h at -45 ℃ to obtain the lyophilized product. The results showed that the appearance, color and redispersibility of the lyophilized nanoparticles were satisfactory. There were no significant differences before and after lyophilization in terms of particle size and distribution, drug loading and entrapment efficiency. It showed that the lyophilized preparation of docetaxel-loaded PSA-anchored PHB nanoparticles would be reasonable and the freeze-drying process could be feasible,which was applicable for the freeze-drying of lectin-anchored drug-loading nanoparticles colloid solution and beneficial to
    solve the instability of liquid nanoparticles.

    Palbociclib is an inhibitor of CDK4/6 which studied by Pfizer. It is used in the treatment of female patients with ER positive breast cancer clinically. Because of its outstanding effect in clinical trials, the FDA approved its listing only in United States. There are no relevant reports of its preparation yet. Based on the excipients of palbociclib capsules (Ibrance) from Pfizer, the formulation of generic palbociclib capsules was screened by orthogonal test, finally the optimal formulation was as follows: palbociclib 7.5 g, microcrystalline cellulose 11 g, lactose monohydrate 5.6 g,sodium carboxymethyl starch 1.59 g, colloidal silica 0.265 g, magnesium stearate 0.545 g for 100 capsules. During the preparation, 3% sodium carboxymethyl starch solution was used as adhesive for wet granulation, then the granules were dried at 60 ℃ and filled into the capsules. Meanwhile, a novel HPLC method for isolating and detecting five related
    substances of palbociclib was established. An InertSustain C18 column was used with ammonium acetate buffer (pH 5.7)∶acetonitrile as mobile phase by gradient elution. The detective wavelength was 225 nm. The method was validated with specificity, sensitivity, and durability. The results indicated that the novel HPLC method could be used for its related substances' analysis and quality control.

    Gouty arthritis (GA) is a disease characterized by joint pain, swelling, and deformity due to the crystallization of sodium urate. To explore the effect of Paederia scandens extract on gouty arthritis, the SD rats were divided into model (saline) group, low-, middle- and high-dose of Paederia scandens extract groups (50, 100, 200 mg/kg) and positive control (colchicine, 0.2 mg/kg) group. The acute gouty arthritis model was built by monosodium urate (MSU) crystal. Observations of the pathological changes of articular tissue and measurements of articular swelling degree as well as the expression of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin 1β (IL-1β) were carried out. Compared with the model group, different doses of Paederia scandens extract reduced the joint swelling induced by MSU in a timeand dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the effect of high-dose group of the extract was similar to that of the positive
    control, colchicine. The extract also reduced the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β, and improved the joint pathological damage. These results suggested that the Paederia scandens extract might be useful in the prevention and treatment of the acute gouty arthritis.

    An HPLC method was established for the determination of the related substances in betamethasone acetate (1) and the quantification was achieved by self-control method with correction factors. A Zorbax SB-C18 column was used, with the mobile phase of acetonitrile∶water (35∶65), at the detection wavelength of 254 nm. The relative correction factors (RCFs) of the related substances were calculated with the slop of the linear equations so as to quantitatively determine the related substances. The results obtained by the proposed method were compared with those obtained by using the impurities reference standards to verify the method accuracy. As a result, the relative retention time of related substances were 0.64 (betamethasone, 2), 0.73 (dexamethasone, 3), 1.13 (dexamethasone acetate, 4), 1.23 (betamethasone acetate epoxide, 5), 1.73 (betamethasone-11,21-diacetate, 6), with RCFs of 0.95, 0.95, 1.00, 1.09 and 1.10, respectively. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the results of RCF method and those of calibration curves method. In addition, 1 and its related substances were effectively separated. Their calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 0.1—10 μg/ml. Their recoveries for the related substances were 96.67%—99.68%, with RSDs of 0.37%—0.83%. This method was simple, efficient and accurate for the quantitation of the related substances in betamethasone acetate.

    The degradation products of gefitinib through stressing test were traced. Among them, the oxidative impurity (named as oxidative impurity A) was synthesized, and then qualitatively and quantitatively determined. Its structure was elucidated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS as 4-[(3-chloro-4-fluoro)phenylamino]-7-methoxy-6-[3-(morpholin-4-yl)propoxy] quinazolin-1-oxide. The HPLC method was optimized by changing the mobile phase ratio and pH value of aqueous phase. A Hypersil C18 column was used, with the mobile phase of acetonitrile∶1%ammonium acetate buffer (adjusted to pH 6.0 by acetate acid)(38∶62), at the detection wavelength of 253 nm. It was linear for oxidative impurity A in the range of 0.5—2.0 μg/ml, with LOQ of 0.15 μg/ml. It indicated that the oxidative
    impurity in gefitinib tablets could be effectively and accurately determined by the established HPLC method, which provided a reference for the establishment of the quality standard for gefitinib tablets.
