Marine endophytic fungi from under-explored locations are a promising source for the discovery of new bioactivities. Different were isolated plants and marine organisms collected Wadi El-Natrun saline lakes Red Sea near Hurghada, Egypt. The strains grown on three different media, their ethyl acetate crude extracts evaluated antimicrobial activity against panel pathogenic bacteria as well antioxidant properties. Results showed that most 32 fungal isolates initially obtained possessed...
Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged overall healthcare system. Healthcare workers are an essential workforce during a as they have been involved in treating patients with COVID-19. They exposed to detrimental effects such high infection and death rates, chronic stress, fear of uncertainty. Their adaptability providing care maintaining psychological equilibrium under unprecedented crises like is poorly understood. This study aimed explore lived experiences resilience hospital...
Background: The worldwide impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on healthcare system is evident. Primary facilities in Philippines face challenges due to lack unified local frameworks that outline strategies and implementation methods for sustaining maternal child health (MCH) services amid ongoing pandemic. This study aimed identify facilitators barriers accessing prenatal care among pregnant women primary during COVID-19
This study examined the association between healthcare access and quality of life (QOL) among senior citizens in Pampanga, Philippines. We conducted a cross-sectional 410 community-dwelling aged 60 above. Using validated scales, we assessed both QOL. Descriptive statistics were employed to characterize citizens, multiple linear regression was used examine Senior averaging 69 years old, predominantly women, single/widowed, with comorbidities. They reported high (mean = 120.13) moderate QOL...
Background: Argan oil has gained popularity in recent years due to its potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The present pre-formulation study sought investigate the suitability of using commercially available argan as a unique pharmaceutical emulsion formulation for oral consumption. This research aimed develop an efficient strategy oil-in-water containing optimize formulation's optimum stability dosage form. Methods: Various analytical physical characterization techniques...
Genome mining and metabolomics have become valuable tools in natural products research to evaluate identify potential new chemistry from bacteria. In the search for compounds deep-sea organism, Pseudomonas sp. SST3, South Shetland Trough, Antarctica, a co-cultivation with second zhaodongensis SST2, was undertaken isolate pseudomonassin, ribosomally synthesised post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP) that belongs class of RiPP called lasso peptides. Pseudomonassin identified using...
Cilostazol possesses pharmacological restrictions, such as its absorption being limited by dissolution rate, and formulation studies must be employed accordingly to generate an optimized formulation. A drug-excipient compatibility analysis is conducted determine any interactions that may affect the in order guarantee stability, bioavailability, manufacturability of solid dosage forms. To identify incompatibilities, cilostazol alone combination with individual excipients microcrystalline...
Telepharmacy is a method utilized in pharmacy practice that delivers pharmaceutical care services via telecommunication technology. In the Philippines, current process for patients to avail of telepharmacy utilizes variety existing applications or websites instead single application.
Background: COVID-19 vaccination is essential for public health, aiming to limit virus transmission and severity of illness. The motivation individuals get vaccinated can vary influenced by a combination factors. This study aimed identify the factors that motivated Filipino residents in Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, Quezon Province, or Calabarzon region with SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was utilized this study. Researcher-made survey questionnaires...
Background and Objective. Contraceptives are widely acknowledged for preventing unwanted pregnancies. However, there is a prevalent lack of awareness regarding contraceptives, leading to unaddressed misconceptions. This study aimed identify common contraceptive misconceptions among men women reproductive age explore how primary health workers address them. Methods. A qualitative was conducted in two phases within District 5, Manila City. Phase 1 comprised focused group discussions with...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a threatening global health challenge with an estimated annual death toll of 10 million by 2050 if unabated. Therefore, there mounting urgency to find new sources clinical candidates for the development drugs that are effective against drug-resistant infections and cancer. Hot springs volcanic environments represent valuable novel natural products (NPs) – including polyketides, alkaloids, peptides yet largely untapped understudied. Microbes from these niches...
Etoricoxib, although exhibiting superior and selective anti-inflammatory properties, exhibits poor aqueous solubility which precludes its formulation into parenteral preparations. This study aims to increase the of this drug by complexation with caffeine, an aromatic base known exhibit a pi-pi stacked complex drugs. The molar between caffeine etoricoxib was analyzed phase studies, Jacob’s continuous variation, Ardon’s plots. Solid-state analyses in vitro diffusion experiments were employed...
