Factors affecting drug stability include temperature, pH, buffering species, ionic strength, and dielectric constant. Temperature is an important factor because most reactions proceed faster at higher temperatures according to the Arrhenius equation. pH also affects stability, with most drugs being stable between pH 4-8, as hydrogen and hydroxide ions can catalyze degradation reactions. Buffering species like hydrogen and hydroxide ions participate in formation and breakdown of reaction intermediates. Ionic strength influences rates of reactions between ionic species, while dielectric constant affects rates of ion-dipole and ion-ion reactions. These physicochemical factors must be considered in stability testing and shelf life determination of pharmaceutical products.

DISSOLUTION
Dissolution is defined as a process in which a solid substance solubilises in a given solvent.
(i.e. mass transfer from the solid surface to the liquid phase.)
Three Theories:
Diffusion layer model / Film theory
Danckwert’s model / Penetration or Surface renewal theory
Interfacial barrier model / Double barrier or Limited solvation theory
Decomposition and stabilization of pharmaceutical productsArshad Khan
Drug stability:Stabilization of medicinal agents against common reactions like hydrolysis & oxidation. Accelerated stability testing in expiration dating of pharmaceutical dosage forms. Photolytic degradation and its prevention.
A co solvent system is one in which a water miscible or partially miscible organic solvent is mixed with water to form a modified aqueous solution. And the phenomenon called Cosolvency
cosolvents have some degree of hydrogen bond donating and or hydrogen bond accepting ability as well as small hydrocarbon regions.
The resulting solution will have physical properties that are intermediate to that of the pure organic solvent and water through the reduction of water–water interaction.
drug execipent compatibilty studies is of prime importance for the better formulation of the new drug and also for reducing cost by verfication of the data at the earlier atage.
this presentation will give the brief explanation of the goal, importance, dteps involve to studi the drug execient compatibility studies with different examples suitable accordiingly.

Mechanism of the Reaction of Plasma Albumin with Formaldehyde in Ethanol - Wa...IOSR Journals
The Spectrophotometric determination of the acid dissociation/ionisation constant (pKa) of plasma albumin-formaldehyde adduct in both water solution and Ethanol solutions was carried out in this study. The pKa values obtained in both media were used to establish the Bronsted-linear type constants from plots of pKa against logarithm of second order rate constants obtained at varying pHs in the study. The result of the pKa values obtained in both water solution and ethanol-water mixtures were found to be in the range of 5.0 - 8.0. This pointed to the fact that only lysine residue with pKa value 8.3 that might have possibly reacted with formaldehyde in this reaction of all the known amino acid residues in plasma albumin. The corresponding Brønsted-type plots proportionality constants (β) for the reaction in water and ethanol-water mixtures were found to be β = 0.059 and 0.0057 respectively. The reaction mechanisms that have low values for proportionality constants α or β are considered to have a transition state closely resembling the reactant with little proton transfer (Cox et al, 1988). Thus, one would suggest that the cross-linking of formaldehyde with plasma albumin in water and ethanol-water mixtures proceeds through little proton transfer

Various Physico-Chemical Properties are,
Solubility Partition Coefficient
Dissociation constant Hydrogen Bonding Ionization of Drug Redox Potential Complexation Surface activity Protein binding Isosterism
1. Solubility:
• The solubility of a substance at a given temperature is defined as the concentration of the dissolved solute, which is in equillibrium with the solid solute.
• Solubility depends on the nature of solute and solvent as well as temperature , pH & pressure.
• The solubility of drug may be expressed in terms of its affinity/philicity or repulsion/phobicity for either an aqueous or organic solvent.
The atoms and molecules of all organic substances are held together by various types of bonds (e.g. hydrogen bond, dipole –dipole, ionic bond etc.)
These forces are involved in solubility because it is the solvent-solvent, solute-solute, solvent-solute interactions that governs solubility.
Methods to improve solubility of drugs
1) Structural modification (alter the structure of molecules) 2) Use of Cosolvents (Ethanol, sorbitol,PPG,PEG)
3) Employing surfactants 4) Complexation
Importance of solubility
1. Solubility concept is important to pharmacist because it govern the preparation of liquid dosage form and the drug must be in solution before it is absorbed by the body to produce the biological activity.
2. Drug must be in solution form to interact with receptors.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
2. DRUG STABILITY
Definition:
Drug stability means the ability of pharmaceutical dosage
form to maintain the physical, chemical, therapeutic & microbial
properties during the time of storage & usage by patients.
3. Stability testing is used to:
• Provide evidence as to how the quality of the drug product
varies with time.
• Establish shelf life for the drug product.
• Determine recommended storage conditions.
• Determine container closure system suitability.
4. Factors Affecting Drug Stability
Temperature
pH
Buffering Species
Ionic Strength
Dielectric Constant
5. TEMPERATURE
Temperature is an important parameter because most reactions proceed faster at
elevated temperatures than at lower temperatures.
Arrhenius equation, k = Ae-Ea/RT
In Logarithm form, Log K= log A – (Ea/2.303 RT)
Where K = specific rate constant; A = frequency factor or Arrhenius factor; Ea =
energy of activation; R = Ideal gas constant; T = absolute temp.
According to Arrhenius, for every 10º rise in temperature, the speed of reaction
increases about 2-3 times.
Storage temperatures:
Room temperature: 30-25ºC
Cold temperature: 2-8ºC
Freeze temperature: -20ºC to -10ºC
6. High temperature can drive moisture out of a sample and render the material
apparently stable.
Example: Insulin is sensitive to temperatures that are too high or too low.
Epimerization of tetracycline:
In aqueous solutions, tetracyclines can undergo reversible isomerization in
which the three-dimensional structure is changed to form 4-epi-tetracycline. Epi-
tetracyclines have less antibacterial activity than the corresponding tetracyclines.
Heparin should be stored at controlled room temperature. It should be
protected from freezing and temperatures >40°C.
Temperature Continued….
7. pH
• Most of the drugs are stable at pH 4-8.
• Catalysis of hydrogen ion and hydroxyl ion occurs at lower pH range and higher
pH range respectively.
• The effect of pH on degradation rate can be explained by the catalytic effects that
hydronium or hydroxide ions can have on various chemical reactions.
• These reactions will also be pH dependent because the fraction of any species
present in its acid or base will dependent on dissociation constant.
• If the pH of a drug solution has to be adjusted to improve solubility and the
resultant pH leads to instability then a way out of this tricky problem is to introduce
a water miscible solvent into the product.
Example: 20% propylene glycol is placed in chlordiazepoxide injection for this
purpose.
• 1 unit change in pH can cause a change of ten fold in rate constant.
• Rate of decomposition is critically dependent upon pH. In the case of acid-base
catalyzed hydrolysis at minimum pH the drug stability is maximum.
8. pH Continued….
• The pH-stability profile is essential for understanding how the compound behaves
in different environments and informs formulation development, process
development, drug product stability and the route of administration of the molecule.
Example: Penicillin G is stable at pH range of 4.0–10.0 and temperature range of 0–
52°C.
Pencillin G Penicillonic acid
• Heparin injection B.P., adjusted to a pH between 7.0 and 8.0, preserved with 0.15%
chlorocresol, is a relatively stable biological product.
9. BUFFERING SPECIES
These buffer species, like H+ and OH-, participates in formation of break down of
activated complexes of various reaction and determine their reaction rate.
These catalytic species are referred to as general acid-base catalysts.
In addition to acting as proto donor or accepter, buffer species can also act as Lewis
acid and base through nucleophilic or electrophilic mechanisms.
Some buffers such as acetate, citrate, lactate, phosphate and ascorbate buffers are
utilized to prevent drastic change in pH.
Example: Studies with phosphate buffer indicates that it enhance the degradation of
various drug substances such as carbenicillin. Carbenicillin is bactericidal antibiotic.
Doripenem is a new parenteral carbapenem and it is antimicrobial agent. Doripenem
undergoes degradation in acetate buffer (pH 4.23–6.04). Doripenem demonstrates the
greatest stability at approximately in borate buffer pH 6.0.
10. IONIC STRENGTH
For drug degradation involving reactions with or between ionic species, the rate is
affected by the presence of other ionic species such as salts of NaCl.
Ionic strength µ is described by
𝝁 =
𝟏
𝟐
𝒊
𝑪𝒊𝒁𝒊
𝟐
Where, Ci = conc. of ionic species; Zi =electric change.
When an ionic species participates in a reaction as a reactant, the reactivity
coefficients(f), for that species is generally described by ɣ.
Log ɣ=QZ2 µ
Rate constant for a reaction between ionic species depends upon on ionic strength
Log K= log K0 + 2 ZAZBѴ µ
Where, ZA and ZB are the charges of A and B; K0 is constant.
11. Ionic Strength Continued….
As ionic strength increases, the rate of reaction between ions of opposite charge
decreases and the rate of reaction between ions of similar charges increases.
Example: An increase in ionic strength resulted in a decrease in the permeation rate of
tryptamine and an increase in the permeation rate of indoleacetic acid. The changes in
the permeation rate with changes in the ionic strength were correlated with the
membrane surface potential monitored by 1-anilino-8-naphthalenesulfonic acid (ANS),
a fluorescent probe. The compound that showed a relatively lower permeation rate was
given relatively stronger effect.
Norfloxacin is most stable in ionic strength of 0.2 if change is occurred then
degradation takes place.
12. DIELECTRIC CONSTANT
It is a measure of substance ability to insulate charges from each other, it is measure of
solvent polarity.
If dielectric constant of solvent is high then it is more polar.
If the reacting ions are of opposite charges then it will result in increased rate of
reaction. If ions of similar charges involve in reaction it will decrease rate of reaction.
Ion dipole reacting rate constant have been related to dielectric constant D.
Log K= log K D=∞
+ 𝒁𝑨 µ𝒄𝒐𝒔ɵ
𝑫𝒌𝑻𝒓𝟐
Where, K D=∞ is the rate constant at infinite dielectric constant; ZA, u and r are ion
charge, dipole moment and the shortest ion dipole distance, respectively; k is
boltzmann constant. The term ɵ represent the alignment of reactant and cosɵ is unity in
the case on alignment.
Thus as the dielectric constant decrease, the rates of anions - dipole reaction decrease
and the rates of cation dipole reaction increases.
13. Dielectric Constant Continued….
Example: Effect of change in solvent dielectric constant on the degradation rate of
chloramphenicol. The hydrolysis rate constant for chloramphenicol in water propyl
glycol mixture increase with decreasing dielectric constant, suggesting a hydronium ion
dipole reaction, whereas in alkali its anionic form is degraded by hydroxide ions.
The dependence of ion-ion reaction rate constants on dielectric constant of solvent
given by
Log K= log K D=∞
−𝒁𝑨 𝒁𝑩
𝑫𝒌𝑻𝒓
Where, r = ion-ion distance; ZA & ZB are charges of A & B
This equation indicates if dielectric constant decrease, the rate of reaction between ions
of similar charge decreases, the rates of reaction between ions of opposite charge
increases.
14. Dielectric Constant Continued….
Example: In its unionized form, morphine is almost insoluble in water (solubility is
about 0.2 mg/ml) but it is most often used in a salt form such as morphine
hydrochloride (solubility is about 40 mg/ml at room temperature). Morphine has two
pKa values: pKa1 8.2 (protonated amino group) and pKa2 9.9 (phenol) at room
temperature. The oxidative degradation pathway of morphine is rather complex in
which the phenol group and the amino group play important roles When only the
protonization of the amino group is considered, then the equation for kobs is (for pH
levels from 2 to 7).
L-Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is a water-soluble compound frequently used as an
antioxidant in food products due to its mild reducing properties. Ascorbic acid has two
pKa values: pKa1 4.2 and pKa2 11.6 at room temperature. The rate of oxidative
degradation of ascorbic acid is at its maximum pKa value.
