Solubility and dissolution enhancement strategies-Current understanding and r...ajaykumarpa
dentification of lead compounds with higher molecular weight and lower aqueous solubility has become increasingly prevalent with the advent of high throughput screening. Poor aqueous solubility of these lipophilic compounds can drastically affect the dissolution rate and subsequently the drug absorbed in the systemic circulation, imposing a significant burden of time and money during drug development process. Various pre-formulation and formulation strategies have been applied in the past that can improve the aqueous solubility of lipophilic compounds by manipulating either the crystal lattice properties or the activity coefficient of a solute in solution or both, if possible. However, despite various strategies available in the armor of formulation scientist, solubility issue still remains an overriding problem in the drug development process. It is perhaps due to the insufficient conceptual understanding of solubility and dissolution phenomenon that hinders the judgment in selecting suitable strategy for improving aqueous solubility and/or dissolution rate. This article, therefore, focuses on (i) revisiting the theoretical and mathematical concepts associated with solubility and dissolution, (ii) their application in making rationale decision for selecting suitable pre- formulation and formulation strategies and (iii) the relevant research performed in this field in past decade.

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...Leonel Morgado
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
Signatures of wave erosion in Titan’s coastsSérgio Sacani
The shorelines of Titan’s hydrocarbon seas trace flooded erosional landforms such as river valleys; however, it isunclear whether coastal erosion has subsequently altered these shorelines. Spacecraft observations and theo-retical models suggest that wind may cause waves to form on Titan’s seas, potentially driving coastal erosion,but the observational evidence of waves is indirect, and the processes affecting shoreline evolution on Titanremain unknown. No widely accepted framework exists for using shoreline morphology to quantitatively dis-cern coastal erosion mechanisms, even on Earth, where the dominant mechanisms are known. We combinelandscape evolution models with measurements of shoreline shape on Earth to characterize how differentcoastal erosion mechanisms affect shoreline morphology. Applying this framework to Titan, we find that theshorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded bywaves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion, particularly if wave growth saturates atfetch lengths of tens of kilometers.
Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...Sérgio Sacani
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole⋆Sérgio Sacani
Context. The early-type galaxy SDSS J133519.91+072807.4 (hereafter SDSS1335+0728), which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream from December 2019 (as ZTF19acnskyy). This variability behaviour, coupled with the host-galaxy properties, suggests that SDSS1335+0728 hosts a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole (BH) that is currently in the process of ‘turning on’. Aims. We present a multi-wavelength photometric analysis and spectroscopic follow-up performed with the aim of better understanding the origin of the nuclear variations detected in SDSS1335+0728. Methods. We used archival photometry (from WISE, 2MASS, SDSS, GALEX, eROSITA) and spectroscopic data (from SDSS and LAMOST) to study the state of SDSS1335+0728 prior to December 2019, and new observations from Swift, SOAR/Goodman, VLT/X-shooter, and Keck/LRIS taken after its turn-on to characterise its current state. We analysed the variability of SDSS1335+0728 in the X-ray/UV/optical/mid-infrared range, modelled its spectral energy distribution prior to and after December 2019, and studied the evolution of its UV/optical spectra. Results. From our multi-wavelength photometric analysis, we find that: (a) since 2021, the UV flux (from Swift/UVOT observations) is four times brighter than the flux reported by GALEX in 2004; (b) since June 2022, the mid-infrared flux has risen more than two times, and the W1−W2 WISE colour has become redder; and (c) since February 2024, the source has begun showing X-ray emission. From our spectroscopic follow-up, we see that (i) the narrow emission line ratios are now consistent with a more energetic ionising continuum; (ii) broad emission lines are not detected; and (iii) the [OIII] line increased its flux ∼ 3.6 years after the first ZTF alert, which implies a relatively compact narrow-line-emitting region. Conclusions. We conclude that the variations observed in SDSS1335+0728 could be either explained by a ∼ 106M⊙ AGN that is just turning on or by an exotic tidal disruption event (TDE). If the former is true, SDSS1335+0728 is one of the strongest cases of an AGNobserved in the process of activating. If the latter were found to be the case, it would correspond to the longest and faintest TDE ever observed (or another class of still unknown nuclear transient). Future observations of SDSS1335+0728 are crucial to further understand its behaviour. Key words. galaxies: active– accretion, accretion discs– galaxies: individual: SDSS J133519.91+072807.4

1. Developing a Discriminating Dissolution
Procedure for a Dual Active Pharmaceutical
Product with Unique Solubility Characteristics
Lagace, M, Gravelle, L. , Di Maso,M. and McClintock, S.
Summary of article published in Dissolution Technologies, Feb 2004
Summarized by V.Maheswaran
2. Dissolution methods using slowest paddle speed (50 rpm) produce steepest drug release
profile which is frequently assumed to provide optimum discriminating power. Higher
paddle speeds which result in flatter drug release profiles can, in some cases, more
accurately reflect true formulation changes.
In general, mild agitation conditions should be maintained during dissolution testing to
allow maximum discriminatory power . In most cases, the dissolution apparatus tends to
become less discriminating when operated at faster speeds that result in a flatter
drug release profile. However, for certain tablet formulations, the increased paddle speed
results in a method with a higher discriminating power by reducing the variability
of the data. Use of a low rotation speed could result in a lack of robustness in the data due
to poor hydrodynamics in the dissolution vessel and can become more a reflection of
system artifacts such as coning rather than true formulation changes.
The above point is explained by developing a dissolution method for a compressed tablet
containing two active pharmaceutical ingredients (API).The selection of dissolution
medium for a tablet with two APIs having very different solubility properties is detailed.
3. MEDIUM SELECTION
In selecting a medium for dissolution testing of Compound A/B, the solubility
characteristics of the individual active ingredients must be considered.
Active A is freely soluble in water (>140 mg/ml solubility).
Both pH and ionic strength affect its solubility.
pH of a 1% solution of Active A is approximately 9.5.
The free acid precipitates when pH is less than 8.
Active B is a crystalline hydrophobic compound with practically no aqueous solubility
(0.0021 mg/mL).
Its solubility increases at low pH to 26.8 mg/ml in 0.1N HCl, due to the formation of the
protonated base.
It has a solubility of 0.0017 mg/ml in 0.1N NaOH
The addition of surfactants increases the aqueous solubility to 1.2 mg/ml in 0.5% SDS,
a 600-fold increase relative to that in water.
In 1% SDS, the equilibrium solubility of Active B is 2.8 mg/ml.
4. Screening of the following media was carried out using
USP Apparatus II at 50 rpm and 37 °C:
(a) water
(b) USP buffer pH 4.5
(c) USP buffer pH 6.5
(d) USP buffer pH 7.5
(e) 0.1 N HCl and
(f ) 0.5% SDS in water
5. Dissolution rate of (A) Active A and (B) Active B in various media using USP
Apparatus II at 50 rpm and 37°C
Active A is almost insoluble in the 3 USP buffers, 0.1N HCl and water.
Active B has very low solubility in water and the 3 USP buffers.
In 0.1N HCl, Active B is more soluble, but only 0.5% SDS provides adequate solubility
for both active ingredients.
6. APPARATUS AND PADDLE SPEED SELECTION
The apparatus and rotational speed selected must provide adequate mixing to disperse
the drug product in the media and to provide a homogeneous mixture for sampling,
while maintaining the discriminatory power of the dissolution procedure.
USP Apparatus II was chosen due to its acceptance as a standard procedure for tablet
formulations. Paddle speeds of 50 and 75 rpm were evaluated with samples taken after
10, 15, 20 and 30 minutes of paddle rotation.
In order to demonstrate method robustness, dissolutions were performed using paddle
speeds of 50 ± 5 rpm and 75 ± 5 rpm.
7. Dissolution of Active A at (A) 50 ± 5rpm and (B) 75 ± 5rpm
The dissolution at 50 rpm provides a steeper profile than at 75 rpm. However, the high
variability observed by varying the paddle speeds ± 5 rpm at 50 rpm demonstrates a lack
of method robustness.
At 75 ± 5 rpm, the profile is flatter, but more robust as shown by the lower variability in
the data.
8. In an attempt to understand the origin of the method variability at 50 rpm, a visual
observation of the tablet behavior in the dissolution vessel was performed at both 50
and 75 rpm.
At 50 rpm, the tablet collapses into a “cone” after disintegration, which traps the
drug in a pile of insoluble excipients in the bottom of the dissolution vessel. This
results in incomplete dissolution. “Cone” formation is a system artifact observed
when poor hydrodynamics, and thus poor solution mixing, exist in the dissolution
vessel. This “cone” formation explains the high variability in the dissolution data
observed at 50 ± 5 rpm.
9. 9
When the paddle speed is increased to 75 rpm, the increased turbulence in the vessel
disrupts the “cone” formation thus providing sufficient hydrodynamics to expose
all tablet granules to the dissolution medium. The dissolution profile subsequently
obtained more accurately reflects the dissolution of the tablet, not system
hydrodynamics, and demonstrates a more rugged test procedure.
To confirm these observations, dissolution testing was performed
at 50 rpm using PEAK™ vessels,
The use of PEAK™ vessels at 50 rpm gives low variability and a similar profile
to that obtained at 75 rpm in regular vessels.
10. 10
To challenge the ability of the dissolution procedure to demonstrate sufficient
discriminating power, tablets were purposely mis-manufactured with modified
excipient composition and tablet hardness and evaluated using both 50 and 75-rpm
paddle speeds. The resulting profiles were plotted along with the robustness profiles
obtained by varying the rotational speed by ± 5 rpm.
At 50 rpm, the dissolution profile of the mis-manufactured tablets cannot be
distinguished from that of properly manufactured tablets. The change in profile
attributable to mis-manufacture of the tablets is overwhelmed by the method variability
11. 11
At 75 rpm, the mis-manufactured tablets give a depressed dissolution
profile that is readily distinguished by the method.
The reduced power to detect manufacturing defects at 50rpm is due to the
compromised method robustness inherent in dissolution methods displaying
significant “coning”.
CONCLUSION:
Based on the visual observations, robustness evaluation and evaluation of sensitivity
to manufacturing and storage changes, the dissolution procedure at 75 rpm more
accurately reflects the dissolution profile of the product.
The procedure is more rugged and reliable than testing performed at 50 rpm.
Therefore, the rotational speed of 75 rpm was chosen for the dissolution procedure.
In general, use of the slowest calibrated paddle speed (50 rpm) results in a method
with a steeper drug release profile, typically leading to a higher discriminating power.
However, for this formulation the use of a slower rotation speed resulted in a lack of
robustness and the dissolution became more a reflection of system artifacts, such as
coning, than true formulation changes.
12. 12
Although the method using a paddle speed of 50 rpm produced a more
“classic” dissolution profile, its ability to discriminate between manufacturing
changes was overwhelmed by lack of method robustness. A paddle speed of 75 rpm
not only produced an expected increase in robustness but also provided a procedure
with superior discriminatory power.
