This document discusses specialized pharmaceutical emulsions. It defines emulsions as unstable systems where one liquid is dispersed as globules in another liquid stabilized by emulsifying agents. The two main types are oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions. Multiple emulsions contain both water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsions. Various methods are described for producing emulsions including mechanical and solvent evaporation techniques. Emulsifying agents lower the interfacial tension between the liquids to form stable emulsions. Potential applications include drug delivery, vaccines, and products for pulmonary, dermal, and oral administration.
The suspension dosage form has long been used for poorly soluble active ingredients for various therapeutic indications. Development of stable suspensions over the shelf life of the drug product continues to be a challenge on many fronts.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.
Normal Labour/ Stages of Labour/ Mechanism of LabourWasim Ak
Normal labor is also termed spontaneous labor, defined as the natural physiological process through which the fetus, placenta, and membranes are expelled from the uterus through the birth canal at term (37 to 42 weeks
2. INTRODUCTION
An emulsion is thermodynamically unstable
system in which one phase is uniformally
distributed as globules in other phase and is
stabilized by the addition of emulsifying
agents.
The emulsions can be divided up into:
1. Oil in water (O/W) emulsions and
2. Water in Oil (W/O) emulsions.
3. 2. W/O Emulsion:
By dispersion of water into oil the
water drops are the
Inner, dispersed phase. Oil is the outer,
continuous phase.
Oil phase
Aq phase
Oil phase
4. Methods of Preparation of Emulsions
1) Continental or Dry Gum Method:1) Continental or Dry Gum Method:
"4:2:1" Method
4 parts (volumes) of oil
2 parts of water
1 part of gum
Dry gum method is used to prepare
the initial or primary emulsion from
oil, water, and a hydrocolloid or
5. 2) Bottle or Forbes Bottle Method:
useful for extemporaneous preparation
of emulsion from volatile oils or
oleaginous substance of low viscosity.
powdered acacia
+ Dry
bottle
2 parts of oil
This method is not suitable for
6. 3) English or wet Gum Method:
4 parts (volumes) of oil
2 parts of water
1 part of gum
7. 4) Auxiliary4) Auxiliary method
An emulsion prepared by other
methods can also be improved by
passing it through a hand
homogenizer, which forces the
emulsion through a very small
orifice, reducing the dispersed droplet
size to about 5 microns or less.
8. In situ soap methodIn situ soap method
wCalcium Soap :
w/o emulsions contain oils such as
oleic acid , in combination with lime
water ( calcium hydroxide solution,
USP).
Prepared by mixing equal volumes of
oil and lime water.
/o emulsions contain oils such as
9. Stability Issues:
Emulsions are, by nature, physically
unstable; that is, they tend to separate
into two distinct phases or layers over
time.
Creaming occurs when dispersed oil
droplets merge and rise to the top of
an o/w emulsion or settle to the
bottom in w/o emulsions. In both
cases, the emulsion can be easily
redispersed by shaking.
10. Coalescence (breaking or cracking) is
the complete and irreversible
separation and fusion of the dispersed
phase.
Phase inversion or a change from w/o
to o/w (or vice versa) may occur.
11. Emulsion Type and Means of
Detection:
1) Dilution Test:
- o/w emulsion can be diluted with
water.
- w/o emulsion can be diluted with oil.
2) Conductivity Test:
Continuous phase water > Continuous
phase oil.
12. 3) Dye-Solubility Test:
- water soluble dye will dissolve in
the aqueous phase.
- oil soluble dye will dissolve in the
oil phase.
4)Cobalt Chloride test:
Cobalt Chloride solution is used for
identification of Emulsion. It is water
soluble so it changes colour when
13. 5:Fluorescence test:
Oils give fluorescence under UV light,
while water doesn’t.
Therefore, O/W emulsion shows spotty
pattern when observed under UV.
while W/O emulsion fluoresces.
14. MULTIPLE EMULSIONS:
Multiple emulsion are complex system
which consist of both w/o and o/w at
the same time.
There are potential matrices for the
encapsulation of biactive compounds
and for the controlled release
compounds
w/o/w multiple emulsion are system
where small water droplets are
entrapped within larger oil droplets and
15. This is made possible by double
emulsification hence the systems are
also called as “Double emulsions”.
These are also called as “Liquid
membrane systems” as the liquid film
which separates the liquid phases acts
as a thin semipermeable film through
which solute must diffuse in order to
transverse from one phase to another.
Multiple emulsions are
thermodynamically unstable.
They are often stabilized by using a
16. TYPES:
With optical microscopy method,
multiple emulsions are classified as,
1. coarse (>3 micrometer in diameter)
2. Fine (1-3 micrometer in
diameter)
3. Micro-multiple emulsions
(<1 micrometer in diameter)
20. Multiple emulsions can also be formulated by using eitherMultiple emulsions can also be formulated by using either
oo11/o/o22/o/o11 systems or osystems or o11/o/o22/w formulations are possible./w formulations are possible.
Examples of both are shown in FigureExamples of both are shown in Figure
21. Multiple emulsion w/o/w contain two
emulsifiers:
1 Low HLB surfactant
(Hydrophobic in nature)
2 High HLB surfactant
(Hydrophilic in nature)
Low HLB surfactant use in disperse
phase
High HLB surfactant use in
continuous phase.
22. EMULSIFYING AGENTS
Emulsifier or surface active agent
[SAA] is molecule which has two
parts, one is hydrophilic and the other
is hydrophobic. Upon the addition of
SAA, it tends to form monolayer film
at the oil/ water interface.
25. Mechanism of release of drug:
1. Primary interface lying between the
inner w/o phase contains the low
HLB surfactant.
2.Secondary interface lying between
droplets and continuous aqueous
phase. Low and high HLB
surfactant present in it. When
hydrophilic surfactant in the
continuous aqueous phase exceed its
26. METHOD OF PREPARATION
1) Solvent evaporation method
2) Two step emulsification.
3) Phase inversion technique.
30. APPLICATONS
Multiple emulsions finds wide range
of applications in controlled or
sustained drug delivery, targeted
delivery, taste masking,
bioavailability enhancement, enzyme
immobilization, etc.
It will be able to provide a novel
carrier system for drugs, cosmetics
