Antifouling Marine Coatings with a Potentially Safer and Sustainable Synthetic Polyphenolic Derivative

The development of harmless substances to replace biocide-based coatings used to prevent or manage marine biofouling and its unwanted consequences is urgent. The formation of biofilms on submerged marine surfaces is one of the first steps in the marine biofouling process, which facilitates the further settlement of macrofoulers. Anti-biofilm properties of a synthetic polyphenolic compound, with previously described anti-settlement activity against macrofoulers, were explored in this work. In ...

Development and validation of a Medication Adherence Universal Questionnaire: the MAUQ

Abstract Background Different questionnaires assess self-reported medication adherence and others quantify aspects of patients attitudes towards medication, but not together in a single instrument. Gathering these two aspects in a single instrument could reduce patients survey burden. Aim The aim of this study was to develop the Medication Adherence Universa...

Pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences embrace a series of different disciplines. Pharmacy practice has been defined as the scientific discipline that studies the different aspects of the practice of pharmacy and its impact on health care systems, medicine use, and patient care. Thus, pharmacy practice studies embrace both clinical pharmacy and social pharmacy elements. Like any other scientific discipline, clinical and social pharmacy practice disseminates research findings using scientific jo...
