DENDRIMER: A NOVEL SYSTEM IN PHARMACEUTICALS

DENDRIMER: A NOVEL SYSTEM IN PHARMACEUTICALS Dendrimers are a new class of synthetic polymers which have a tree or star shape like structure, with a central core, interior branches and terminal groups which embellish the surface. It can be synthesized by a repetitive step-growth polymerization process. They are highly branched and monodisperse… read more: http://www.pharmatutor.org/articles/dendrimer-novel-system-in-pharmaceuticals Crystal… Continue reading DENDRIMER: A NOVEL SYSTEM IN PHARMACEUTICALS

L-citrulline, reduces muscle fatigue

The organic compound citrulline is an α-amino acid. Its name is derived from citrullus, theLatin word for watermelon, from which it was first isolated in 1914 by Koga & Odake. It was finally identified by Wada in 1930.[2] It has the idealized formulaH2NC(O)NH(CH2)3CH(NH2)CO2H. It is a key intermediate in the urea cycle, the pathway by which mammals excrete ammonia. Although human DNA does not code for citrulline… Continue reading L-citrulline, reduces muscle fatigue
