AB  - Diabetic retinopathy is not cured efficiently and changes of lifestyle measures may delay early retinal injury in
diabetes. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of reduced daily light exposure on retinal vascular
changes in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced model of DM with emphasis on inflammation, Aqp4 expression, visual
cycle and cholesterol metabolism-related gene expression in rat retina and RPE. Male Wistar rats were divided
into the following groups: 1. control; 2. diabetic group (DM) treated with streptozotocin (100 mg/kg); 3. group
exposed to light/dark cycle 6/18 h (6/18); 4. diabetic group exposed to light/dark cycle 6/18 h (DM+6/18).
Retinal vascular abnormalities were estimated based on lectin staining, while the expression of genes involved in
the visual cycle, cholesterol metabolism, and inflammation was determined by qRT-PCR. Reduced light exposure
alleviated vasculopathy, gliosis and the expression of IL-1 and TNF-α in the retina with increased perivascular
Aqp4 expression. The expression of genes involved in visual cycle and cholesterol metabolism was significantly
up-regulated in RPE in DM+6/18 vs. DM group. In the retina only the expression of APOE was significantly
higher in DM+6/18 vs. DM group. Reduced light exposure mitigates vascular changes and gliosis in DM via its
anti-inflammatory effect, increased retinal cholesterol turnover and perivascular Aqp4 expression.

AB  - Reuse and/or recycling of spent adsorbents is taking a central role in modern thinking and catalyzed carbonization is the way forward. Herein we explore the carbonization of adsorbed acetamiprid, in an inert atmosphere, as a way of recycling and producing nitrogen-rich carbon material for potential use in supercapacitors. Added value material and the reuse of the adsorbent were achieved by carbonization at 700 °C under argon. The formation of a nitrogen-doped carbon layer as an active material on the adsorbent, bonded through a C-Si linkage, has been conclusively verified through elemental composition quantification using XPS and EDX measurements. Two-stage catalytic decomposition and condensation of the adsorbed pesticide is followed by TGA and TPD-MS. Attained carbon-based materials give stable Faradaic capacitance with a slight dependency on the number of adsorbing cycles. Capacitance calculated with respect to the adlayer carbon material reaches values as high as 610 F g−1. Galvanostatic Charge/Discharge measurement confirmed the stability of explored materials with a slight increase in capacitance over 1000 cycles. The presented results envisage electroactive materials preparation from environmental pollutants, adding value to spent adsorbents.

AB  - Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is characterized by amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation in the blood vessels and is associated with cognitive impairment in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The increased accumulation of Aβ is also present in the retinal blood vessels and a significant correlation between retinal and brain amyloid deposition was demonstrated in living patients and animal AD models. The Aβ accumulation in the retinal blood vessels can be the result of impaired transcytosis and/or the dysfunctional ocular glymphatic system in AD and during aging. We analyzed the changes in the mRNA and protein expression of major facilitator superfamily domain-containing protein2a (Mfsd2a), the major regulator of transcytosis, and of Aquaporin4 (Aqp4), the key player implicated in the functioning of the glymphatic system, in the retinas of 4- and 12-month-old WT and 5xFAD female mice. A strong decrease in the Mfsd2a mRNA and protein expression was observed in the 4 M and 12 M 5xFAD and 12 M WT retinas. The increase in the expression of srebp1-c could be at least partially responsible for the Mfsd2a decrease in the 4 M 5xFAD retinas. The decrease in the pericyte (CD13+) coverage of retinal blood vessels in the 4 M and 12 M 5xFAD retinas and in the 12 M WT retinas suggests that pericyte loss could be associated with the Mfsd2a downregulation in these experimental groups. The observed increase in Aqp4 expression in 4 M and 12 M 5xFAD and 12 M WT retinas accompanied by the decreased perivascular Aqp4 expression is indicative of the impaired glymphatic system. The findings in this study reveal the impaired Mfsd2a and Aqp4 expression and Aqp4 perivascular mislocalization in retinal blood vessels during physiological (WT) and pathological (5xFAD) aging, indicating their importance as putative targets for the development of new treatments that can improve the regulation of transcytosis or the function of the glymphatic system.

AB  - Introduction: During fetal development, the proper development of neural and visual systems relies on the maternal supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids through placental transfer. Pregnant women are strongly advised to augment their diet with additional sources of omega-3, such as fish oil (FO). This supplementation has been linked to a reduced risk of preterm birth, pre-eclampsia, and perinatal depression. Recently, higher doses of omega-3 supplementation have been recommended for pregnant women. Considering that omega-3 fatty acids, particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), play a crucial role in maintaining the delicate homeostasis required for the proper functioning of the retina and photoreceptors the effects of high-dose fish oil (FO) supplementation during pregnancy and lactation on the retina and retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) in healthy offspring warrant better understanding. Methods: The fatty acid content and the changes in the expression of the genes regulating cholesterol homeostasis and DHA transport in the retina and RPE were evaluated following the high-dose FO supplementation. Results: Our study demonstrated that despite the high-dose FO treatment during pregnancy and lactation, the rigorous DHA homeostasis in the retina and RPE of the two-month-old offspring remained balanced. Another significant finding of this study is the increase in the expression levels of major facilitator superfamily domain-containing protein (Mfsd2a), a primary DHA transporter. Mfsd2a also serves as a major regulator of transcytosis during development, and a reduction in Mfsd2a levels poses a major risk for the development of leaky blood vessels. Conclusion: Impairment of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB) is associated with the development of numerous ocular diseases, and a better understanding of how to manipulate transcytosis in the BRB during development can enhance drug delivery through the BRB or contribute to the repair of central nervous system (CNS) barriers.

AB  - Zaleplon is a positive allosteric modulator of the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)A receptor approved for the short-term treatment of insomnia. Previous publications on zaleplon have not addressed the proteins involved in its mechanism of action but have mostly referred to behavioral or pharmacological studies. Since both GABAergic and glutamatergic signaling have been shown to regulate wakefulness and sleep, we examined the effects of prolonged zaleplon treatment (0.625 mg/kg for 5 days) on these systems in the hippocampus of male Wistar rats. Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses showed that the upregulated components of GABAergic signaling (glutamate decarboxylase, vesicular GABA transporter, GABA, and α1 subunit of the GABAA receptor) were accompanied by increased protein levels in the glutamatergic system (vesicular glutamate transporter 1 and NR1, NR2A, and NR2B subunits of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor). Our results, showing that zaleplon enhances GABA neurotransmission in the hippocampus, were not surprising. However, we found that treatment also increased glutamatergic signaling. This could be the result of the downregulation of adenosine A1 receptors, important modulators of the glutamatergic system. Further studies are needed to investigate the effects of the zaleplon-induced increase in hippocampal glutamatergic neurotransmission and the possible involvement of the adenosine system in zaleplon’s mechanism of action.

AB  - As an alternative to classical brachytherapy, intratumoral injection of radionuclide-labeled nanoparticles (nanobrachytherapy, NBT) has been investigated as a superior delivery method over an intravenous route for radionuclide therapy of solid tumors. We created superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) coated with meso-1,2-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and radiola- beled with Lutetium-177 (177Lu), generating 177Lu-DMSA@SPIONs as a potential antitumor agent for nanobrachytherapy. Efficient radiolabeling of DMSA@SPIONS by 177Lu resulted in a stable bond with minimal leakage in vitro. After an intratumoral injection to mouse colorectal CT-26 or breast 4T1 subcutaneous tumors, the nanoparticles remained well localized at the injection site for weeks, with limited leakage. The dose of 3.70 MBq/100 μg/50 μL of 177Lu-DMSA@SPIONs applied intratumorally resulted in a high therapeutic efficacy, without signs of general toxicity. A decreased dose of 1.85 MBq/100 μg/50 μL still retained therapeutic efficacy, while an increased dose of 9.25 MBq/100 μg/50 μL did not significantly benefit the therapy. Histopathology analysis revealed that the 177Lu-DMSA@SPIONs act within a limited range around the injection site, which explains the good therapeutic efficacy achieved by a single administration of a relatively low dose without the need for increased or repeated dosing. Overall, 177Lu-DMSA@SPIONs are safe and potent agents suitable for intra-tumoral administration for localized tumor radionuclide therapy.

AB  - The phenolic composition and antioxidant activity of wine and fermented pomace (FP) from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested at three ripening stages were evaluated using LC-MS/MS and spectrophotometric analyses. An investigation of grey mold’s (Botrytis cinerea) influence on wine phenolic content modulation was conducted as well. Finally, the influence of the plant’s ripening stage on the dynamics of the phenolic compounds extracted from wine and FP obtained from fully ripe grapes was evaluated. In this study, the content of catechin, epicatechin, quercetin, and p-coumaric, gallic, and syringic acids was analyzed. Wine and FP were obtained after extended maceration during the spontaneous and inoculated fermentation of fully ripe grapes. When comparing the wine and FP obtained from véraison, fully ripe, and overripe grapes, catechin was the most abundant in wine (40.13 ± 3.25 mg/L) and quercetin in FP (10.96 ± 0.14 mg/kg). A decrease in analyzed phenolic compounds was noticed in wine produced from grapes affected by Botrytis cinerea, and the highest depletion was found for quercetin. The use of a winemaking technique that involved differing maceration periods and inoculation using yeasts as well as spontaneous fermentation significantly modulated the phenolic content of derived wines and FP. The dynamics of the phenolic compounds extracted into wine, evaluated using a principal component analysis (PCA), highlighted contents of catechin and epicatechin. After a decrease in maceration, the PCA revealed a notable content of gallic and syringic acids, as well as quercetin, in samples of FP. This study offers a perspective for future research and the development of functional food with a high content of phenolic compounds originating from red grape products, such as wine and fermented pomace.

AB  - More environment-friendly solvents in analytical chemistry are almost inevitable in both sample preparation and analysis to meet the high standards of sustainable chemistry and human welfare. In this review paper, a critical look at the advantages and still unsolved problems of most potential classes of green solvents is presented to give an overview of the current state-of-the-art in this field. Replacing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by ecofriendly and benign solvents in extractions/separations in sample preparation, as the most tedious and demanding step in analysis, is one of roads toward sustainable chemistry. Water under sub- and supercritical conditions, carbon-dioxide, ionic liquids (ILs), deep eutectic solvents (DESs), and those of natural origin (NADES) belong to the most promising classes of solvents in green analytical chemistry. Basic theory and mechanisms of their use illustrated by representative but not exhaustive list of examples related to complex matrices (environmental and natural food products) from analytical practice are presented in this review. Perspectives of QuEChERS, in line with GAC principles, are highlighted, in line with current trends of “going green” for quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe analytical methods. Compliance with green chemistry (GC), especially green analytical chemistry (GAC) principles, is not a fashionable issue but, more the trend toward a sustainable future with greener chemistry; thus, green metrics are an unavoidable tool to measure how green the applied method or procedure is. Herein, the most common tools will be presented and discussed, such as national environmental method index (NEMI), analytical ecoscale, green analytical procedure index (GAPI), analytical greenness calculator (AGREE), complementary green analytical procedure index (ComplexGAPI), and analytical greenness metric for sample preparation (AGREEprep). The future trends for research and development in this still expanding field are presented in a critical view of advantages and disadvantages as well as improvement of the validation of analytical procedures. The creation of new certified reference materials (CRMs) and validated methods for specified analytes in complex matrices is a demanding task in the coming years. Tailor-made solvents with physicochemical properties for intended use are required for the selective extraction and separation and open numerous possibilities and huge potential for future research and industrial applications.

AB  - Dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) and its active component oleuropein (OLE) were applied as reducing and stabilizing agents to prepare colloidal 20-25 nm silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The Ag NPs were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and absorption spectroscopy. The cytotoxic actions of coated Ag NPs, and their inorganic and organic components, were examined against trophoblast cells and human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria, and yeast. The genotoxic potential was evaluated in PBLs in vitro with the comet assay. Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE induced cytotoxic effects in both types of cells after 24 h exposure when silver concentrations were 0.025-0.2 mM. However, the most pronounced cytotoxicity exhibits Ag/OLE. Both colloids also caused reduced ROS production in both cell types at 0.1 mM and 0.2 mM, while bare Ag NPs did not alter ROS levels at any of the conditions. Functionalized Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE did not show genotoxic effects in PBLs, while bare AgNPs increased DNA damage significantly only at 0.2 mM. Regarding the antimicrobial effects, the Ag/OLE had MIC values for all evaluated microorganisms from 0.0625 to less than 0.0312 mM. Also, the antimicrobial effect of Ag/DOLE was significantly higher on Gram-negative bacteria and yeast than on Gram-positive bacteria. Obtained results indicate that Ag/OLE induced the most pronounced biological effects, beneficial for its application as an antimicrobial agent, but with potential risks from exposure to high concentrations that could induce cytotoxicity in healthy human cells.

abstract = "Dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) and its active component oleuropein (OLE) were applied as reducing and stabilizing agents to prepare colloidal 20-25 nm silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The Ag NPs were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and absorption spectroscopy. The cytotoxic actions of coated Ag NPs, and their inorganic and organic components, were examined against trophoblast cells and human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria, and yeast. The genotoxic potential was evaluated in PBLs in vitro with the comet assay. Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE induced cytotoxic effects in both types of cells after 24 h exposure when silver concentrations were 0.025-0.2 mM. However, the most pronounced cytotoxicity exhibits Ag/OLE. Both colloids also caused reduced ROS production in both cell types at 0.1 mM and 0.2 mM, while bare Ag NPs did not alter ROS levels at any of the conditions. Functionalized Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE did not show genotoxic effects in PBLs, while bare AgNPs increased DNA damage significantly only at 0.2 mM. Regarding the antimicrobial effects, the Ag/OLE had MIC values for all evaluated microorganisms from 0.0625 to less than 0.0312 mM. Also, the antimicrobial effect of Ag/DOLE was significantly higher on Gram-negative bacteria and yeast than on Gram-positive bacteria. Obtained results indicate that Ag/OLE induced the most pronounced biological effects, beneficial for its application as an antimicrobial agent, but with potential risks from exposure to high concentrations that could induce cytotoxicity in healthy human cells.",

AB  - Although sample preparation, as an unavoidable step of the analytical process should be simple, it is very often identified as a bottleneck. Simplicity of sample preparation based on cost-effective and non-hazardous materials is mandatory for any sustainable and environmental friendly approach. Aqueous biphasic systems (ABS), based on functionalized ionic liquids (FILs) are acceptable alternatives to classical extraction procedures, due to the replacement of organic solvent with diluted aqueous-soluble ionic liquids. In this work, two water soluble FILs based on 2-mercaptobenzothiazolate anion, [mbt]: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium [mbt] ([bmim][mbt]) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium [mbt] ([emim][mbt]), were designed and synthesized in order to selectively extract Cd(II) and Pb(II) from the river sediment. It was found that [mbt]– anion acts as the ligand and forms complexes with Cd(II) and Pb(II) which are responsible for their efficient extraction, while cation is more responsible for the formation of ABS. Partition coefficients of 408 and 180 for Cd(II) and Pb(II), respectively, were obtained using ABS based on [bmim][mbt]. Direct extraction of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from the river sediment has been investigated and obtained optimal conditions are: 60 min direct contact of the aqueous solution of [bmim][mbt] and the sediment sample at 90 °C, followed by formation of ABS upon addition of potassium citrate. Using AGRE and AGREEprep tools greenness of the proposed method for direct extraction of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from the sediment are calculated. Obtained values of 0.69 and 0.71 for Cd(II) and Pb(II) extraction, respectively, showed a high level of the greenness of the proposed method.

AB  - The recommended fish oil (FO) supplementation doses often yield low omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) tissue bioavailability, and higher doses (up to 10 g per day) have been increasingly recommended. However, the exact effects of such FO supplementation on the healthy retina and retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) are unknown. Our study showed that the high dose FO treatment did not imbalance the rigorous docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6n3) homeostasis in the retina and RPE in the three-month-old female B6/SLJ mice. Instead, we have found the significant increase in the expression of Mfsd2a, the main DHA transporter. Mfsd2a is also an essential regulator of blood vessel transcytosis and the decrease in Mfsd2a expression can be a risk factor for developing leaky blood vessels. Therefore, the high-dose FO supplementation emerges as the prophylactic fortifier of the retinal blood vessels.

AB  - The brain is the softest organ in the body, and any change in the mechanical properties of the tissue induces the activation of glial cells, astrocytes and microglia. Amyloid plaques, one of the main pathological features of Alzheimer's disease (AD), are substantially harder than the surrounding brain tissue and can activate astrocytes and microglia resulting in the glial engulfment of plaques. Durotaxis, a migratory preference towards stiffer tissue, is prompting microglia to form a mechanical barrier around plaques reducing amyloid β (Aβ) induced neurotoxicity. Mechanoreceptors are highly expressed in the brain, particularly in microglia. The large increase in the expression of the mechanoreceptor Piezo1 was observed in the brains from AD animal models and AD patients in plaque encompassing glia. Importantly, Piezo1 function is regulated via force-from–lipids through the lipid composition of the membrane and membranous incorporation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can affect the function of Piezo1 altering mechanosensitive properties of the cell. On the other hand, PUFAs dietary supplementation can alter microglial polarization, the envelopment of amyloid plaques, and immune response and Piezo1 activity was implicated in the similar modulations of microglia behavior. Finally, PUFAs treatment is currently in use in medical trials as the therapy for sickle cell anemia, a disease linked with the mutations in Piezo1. Further studies are needed to elucidate the connection between PUFAs, Piezo1 expression, and microglia behavior in the AD brain. These findings could open new possibilities in harnessing microglia in AD and in developing novel therapeutic strategies.

AB  - This study aimed to investigate the effect of 150 mg/L sodium fluoride (NaF) on redox status parameters and essential metals [copper (Cu), iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn)] in the blood, liver, kidney, brain, and spleen of Wistar rats and to determine the protective potential of selenium (Se) against fluoride (F-) toxicity. Male Wistar rats were randomly distributed in groups of five (n=5) receiving tap water (control) or water with NaF 150 mg/L, NaF 150 mg/L + Se 1.5 mg/L, and Se 1.5 mg/L solutions ad libitum for 28 days. Fluorides caused an imbalance in the redox and biometal (Cu, Fe, and Zn) status, leading to high superoxide anion (O2 .-) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the blood and brain and a drop in superoxide dismutase (SOD1) activity in the liver and its increase in the brain and kidneys. Se given with NaF improved MDA, SOD1, and O2 .- in the blood, brain, and kidneys, while alone it decreased SH group levels in the liver and kidney. Biometals both reduced and increased F- toxicity. Further research is needed before Se should be considered as a promising strategy for mitigating F- toxicity. © 2022 Jelena Radovanović, Biljana Antonijević, Katarina Baralić, Marijana Ćurčić, Danijela Đukić-Ćosić, Zorica Bulat, Dragana Javorac, Aleksandra Buha Đorđević, Jelena Kotur-Stevuljević, Emina Sudar-Milovanović, Evica Antonijević Miljaković, Miloš Beloica, and Zoran Mandinić, published by Sciendo.

AB  - Excessive fluoride (F−) levels in the environment could induce different pathological changes, including comorbidities in reproductive functions. Hence, the aim of the present in vivo study was to explore F− subacute toxicity mechanisms via Benchmark dose (BMD) methodology on rat's testicles. The experiment was conducted on thirty male Wistar rats for 28 days, divided into six groups (n = 5): 1) Control (tap water); 2) 10 mg/L F−; 3) 25 mg/L F−; 4) 50 mg/L F−; 5) 100 mg/L F−; 6) 150 mg/L F−. Testicles were dissected out and processed for the determination of F− tissue concentrations, redox status parameters, essential elements level, and DNA damage. PROASTweb 70.1 software was used for determination of external and internal dose-response relationship. The results confirmed a significant increase in superoxide anion (O2.-), total oxidative status (TOS), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), DNA damage levels, and decrease in superoxide dismutase activity (SOD1) and total thiol (SH) groups. The dose-dependent changes were confirmed for SOD1 activity and DNA damage. The most sensitive parameters were SOD1 activity and DNA damage with the lowest BMDLs 0.1 μg F−/kg b. w. Since human and animal populations are daily and frequently unconsciously exposed to F−, this dose-response study is valuable for further research regarding the F− health risk assessment.

AB  - The antibacterial performance and cytotoxic examination of in situ prepared silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), on inorganic-organic hybrid nanopowder consisting of zirconium dioxide nanoparticles (ZrO2 NPs) and dihydroquercetin (DHQ), was performed against Gram (−) bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram (+) bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, as well as against human cervical cancer cells HeLa and healthy MRC-5 human cells. The surface modification of ZrO2 NPs, synthesized by the sol-gel method, with DHQ leads to the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation indicated by the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral range. The prepared samples were thoroughly characterized (TEM, XRD, reflection spectroscopy), and, in addition, the spectroscopic observations are supported by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations using a cluster model. The concentration- and time-dependent antibacterial tests indicated a complete reduction of bacterial species, E. coli and S. aureus, for all investigated concentrations of silver (0.10, 0.25, and 0.50 mg/mL) after 24 h of contact. On the other side, the functionalized ZrO2 NPs with DHQ, before and after deposition of Ag NPs, do not display a significant decrease in the viability of HeLa MRC-5 cells in any of the used concentrations compared to the control

AB  - Recent studies show that lanthanides (Ln) are becoming emerging pollutants due to their wide application in new technologies,but their environmental fate, transport, and possible accumulation are still relatively unknown. This study aims to determinemajor and trace elements including Ln in the Danube River sediment which either belong or close to the Iron Gate Reservoir. TheIron Gate Reservoir is characterized by accumulation of sediments as an effect of building hydropower dam Iron Gate I. Thesurface sediments were collected on the Danube River—1141 to 864 km and three tributaries along this waterway. Two samplesof deep sediments were used for comparison. The results indicate the significant upward enrichment of Zn, Sb, Cr, Nd, and Dy insediments belongs to the Iron Gate Reservoir. The sample 4-Smed is labelled as a hot spot of contamination with Zn, Cr, As, Sb,Nd, and Dy. Also, a trend of increasing concentration in the time period from 1995 to 2016 was found for elements Zn, Cr, and Niin sediment samples in the Iron Gate Reservoir. Chemometric analysis shows the grouping of sample sites into clusters charac-terized by the following properties: (i) increased concentration of all measured elements (samples within the Iron Gate Reservoir);(ii) increased Cu concentration (11-Pek); and (iii) lower concentrations of the measured elements (deep sediments). The datapresented hereby contribute to the monitoring of pollution of the River Danube sediments and give the first view of Ln profile inthe studied sediments.

AB  - Liquisolid systems are emerging formulation approach for poorly soluble drugs, based on adsorption/absorption of drug dispersion and obtaining free-flowing powder with good compressibility. SeDeM Expert System represents a powder processability evaluation method. It may provide additional insight into liquisolid systems critical quality attributes, but the contribution of this approach remains to be explored. The aims of this study were: pellet preparation by combination of liquisolid technology and water granulation/extrusion, evaluation of liquisolid based systems (pellets/admixtures) and investigation into the applicability of SeDeM Expert System in liquisolid systems characterization. Pellets/admixtures were prepared with microcrystalline cellulose as carrier and crospovidone/silicon dioxide as coating agent. Ibuprofen solution in polyethylene glycol 400 was used as liquid phase. After comprehensive sample characterization, experimentally obtained parameters were mathematically transformed and evaluated in the SeDeM Expert System framework. Pellets exhibited low aspect ratio and excellent flowability, despite liquid load up to 52.2%. The investigated liquisolid admixtures exhibited good flowability and faster drug dissolution than pellets. Single pellet crushing test results exhibited strong correlation with compact indentation hardness and may be used as indentation hardness predictor. SeDeM Expert System provides useful insight into liquisolid system processability and comparative evaluation and it may facilitate final solid dosage form development.

AB  - This study aimed to evaluate, in vitro, the antioxidative potential of fruit wines produced from berry fruits (i.e., black chokeberry, blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry), cherry, and apple by different technological processes. For this purpose, the activities of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and superoxide dismutase (SOD)) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content as a marker of membrane damage were determined in wine-treated synaptosomes with hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress. All studied wines induced increased antioxidant enzyme activities and decreased MDA levels compared to hydrogen peroxide-treated synaptosomes (i.e., control). The highest SOD activity was observed in synaptosomes treated with blackberry wine (6.81 U/mg), whereas blueberry wine induced the highest catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities (0.058 U/mg and 0.017 U/mg, respectively). Black chokeberry proved to be the best in lipid peroxidation protection with the lowest MDA value (1.42 nmol/mg). Finally, principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis additionally highlighted a higher antioxidant capacity of wines produced from dark-skinned fruits (i.e., blackberry, black chokeberry, and blueberry). The results suggest protective effects of the fruit wines against oxidative damage, and, accordingly, their promising application as functional food.

abstract = "This study aimed to evaluate, in vitro, the antioxidative potential of fruit wines produced from berry fruits (i.e., black chokeberry, blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry), cherry, and apple by different technological processes. For this purpose, the activities of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and superoxide dismutase (SOD)) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content as a marker of membrane damage were determined in wine-treated synaptosomes with hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress. All studied wines induced increased antioxidant enzyme activities and decreased MDA levels compared to hydrogen peroxide-treated synaptosomes (i.e., control). The highest SOD activity was observed in synaptosomes treated with blackberry wine (6.81 U/mg), whereas blueberry wine induced the highest catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities (0.058 U/mg and 0.017 U/mg, respectively). Black chokeberry proved to be the best in lipid peroxidation protection with the lowest MDA value (1.42 nmol/mg). Finally, principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis additionally highlighted a higher antioxidant capacity of wines produced from dark-skinned fruits (i.e., blackberry, black chokeberry, and blueberry). The results suggest protective effects of the fruit wines against oxidative damage, and, accordingly, their promising application as functional food.",
