In this work, reduced graphene oxide (RGO)–HKUST-1 mechanical mixtures were studied in order to reveal the effect of RGO content on the pressure tolerance of the texture and heat conductivity. HKUST-1 was obtained by two different synthesis routes. Air-dried MOF and RGO were thoroughly mixed prior to the compression. Powder XRD and Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize the response of the crystal structure, while low-temperature nitrogen adsorption was used the follow the adsorption properties of the pellets. Finally, the "flash" heat pulse method was used to assess the thermal properties. The gas adsorption isotherms revealed that the adsorption capacity decreases when RGO is added. Based on Raman and XRD results, we found that the synthesis route has an effect on multiple scales. We experimentally confirmed that evaluation of the thermal diffusivity requires a model more complex than the simple Fourier equation, due to the inherent heterogeneous structure of the material. A good approximation of the Fourier coefficient of thermal diffusivity was obtained using the parameters of the Guyer–Krumhansl equation. The heat pulse experiments also revealed possible size-dependent behavior.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1572-8943}, orcid-numbers = {Fehér, Anna Éva/0000-0002-2366-6388; Farkas, Attila/0000-0002-8877-2587; Kovács, Róbert Sándor/0000-0001-5822-6035; Nagyné László, Krisztina/0000-0003-4499-3983} } @article{MTMT:34771157, title = {Machine vision-based non-destructive dissolution prediction of meloxicam-containing tablets}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34771157}, author = {Mészáros, Lilla Alexandra and Madarász, Lajos and Kádár, Szabina and Ficzere, Máté and Farkas, Attila and Nagy, Zsombor Kristóf}, doi = {10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124013}, journal-iso = {INT J PHARM}, journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICS}, volume = {655}, unique-id = {34771157}, issn = {0378-5173}, abstract = {Machine vision systems have emerged for quality assessment of solid dosage forms in the pharmaceutical industry. These can offer a versatile tool for continuous manufacturing while supporting the framework of process analytical technology, quality-by-design, and real-time release testing. The aim of this work is to develop a digital UV/VIS imaging-based system for predicting the in vitro dissolution of meloxicam-containing tablets. The alteration of the dissolution profiles of the samples required different levels of the critical process parameters, including compression force, particle size and content of the API. These process parameters were predicted non-destructively by multivariate analysis of UV/VIS images taken from the tablets. The dissolution profile prediction was also executed using solely the image data and applying artificial neural networks. The prediction error (RMSE) of the dissolution profile points was less than 5%. The alteration of the API content directly affected the maximum concentrations observed at the end of the dissolution tests. This parameter was predicted with a relative error of less than 10% by PLS models that are based on the color components of UV and VIS images. In conclusion, this paper presents a modern, non-destructive PAT solution for real-time testing of the dissolution of tablets. © 2024 The Author(s)}, keywords = {meloxicam; Quality assessment; artificial neural network; Machine vision; Dissolution testing; Dissolution prediction}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1873-3476}, orcid-numbers = {Farkas, Attila/0000-0002-8877-2587} } @article{MTMT:34759117, title = {UV–VIS imaging-based investigation of API concentration fluctuation caused by the sticking behaviour of pharmaceutical powder blends}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34759117}, author = {Péterfi, Orsolya and Mészáros, Lilla Alexandra and Szabó-Szőcs, Bence and Ficzere, Máté and Sipos, Emese and Farkas, Attila and Galata, Dorián László and Nagy, Zsombor Kristóf}, doi = {10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124010}, journal-iso = {INT J PHARM}, journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICS}, volume = {655}, unique-id = {34759117}, issn = {0378-5173}, abstract = {Surface powder sticking in pharmaceutical mixing vessels poses a risk to the uniformity and quality of drug formulations. This study explores methods for evaluating the amount of pharmaceutical powder mixtures adhering to the metallic surfaces. Binary powder blends consisting of amlodipine and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) were used to investigate the effect of the mixing order on the adherence to the vessel wall. Elevated API concentrations were measured on the wall and within the dislodged material from the surface, regardless of the mixing order of the components. UV imaging was used to determine the particle size and the distribution of the API on the metallic surface. The results were compared to chemical maps obtained by Raman chemical imaging. The combination of UV and VIS imaging enabled the rapid acquisition of chemical maps, covering a substantially large area representative of the analysed sample. UV imaging was also applied in tablet inspection to detect tablets that fail to meet the content uniformity criteria.

Its thermal dehydration at 100 °C resulted in phase-pure [Co(NH3)4CO3]MnO4 (compound 1). Compounds 1 and 2 (i.e., the hydrated form) were studied with IR, far-IR, and low-temperature Raman spectroscopies, and their vibrational modes were assigned. The lattice parameters were determined by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and single crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD) methods for the triclinic and orthorhombic compounds 1 and 2, respectively. The detailed structure of compound 2 was determined, and the role of hydrogen bonds in the structural motifs was clarified. UV studies on compounds 1 and 2 showed the distortion of the octahedral geometry of the complex cation during dehydration because of the partial loss of the hydrogen bonds between the crystal water and the ligands of the complex cation. The thermal decomposition consists of a solid phase quasi-intramolecular redox reaction between the ammonia ligands and permanganate anions with the formation of ammonia oxidation products (H2O, NO, N2O, and CO2). The solid phase reaction product is amorphous cobalt manganese oxide containing ammonium, carbonate (and nitrate) anions. The temperature-controlled thermal decomposition of compound 2 in toluene at 110 °C showed that one of the decomposition intermediates is ammonium nitrate. The decomposition intermediates are transformed into Co1.5Mn1.5O4 spinel with MnCo2O4 structure upon further heating. Solid compound 2 gave the spinel at 500 °C both in an inert and air atmosphere, whereas the sample pre-treated in toluene at 110 °C without and with the removal of ammonium nitrate by aqueous washing, gave the spinel already at 300 and 400 °C, respectively. The molten NH4NO3 is a medium to start spinel crystallization, but its decomposition stops further crystal growth of the spinel phase. By this procedure, the particle size of the spinel product as low as ~4.0 nm could be achieved for the treatments at 300 and 400 °C, and it increased only to 5.7 nm at 500 °C.
