UCT Prague is a research university primarily focused on technical chemistry, chemical and biochemical technologies, material and chemical engineering, food science, and environmental science. Its cutting-edge facilities and equipment together, with an impressive scientific and research profile, make it an ideal training ground for the managerial, R&D, and public sector leaders of the future.
UCT Prague has four faculties. Its competitive edge lies in its unique “weaving together” of teaching activities with the highest-quality basic and applied research. Across UCT Prague, scientific teams are intensively involved in various national and international cooperative R&D efforts. The Project Centre provides methodological and administrative support to researchers submitting project applications and managing funded projects.
UCT Prague considers the commercialisation of applied research to be an important part of its mission. For that reason, UCT Prague’ss Research and Technology Transfer Office offers researchers support, contributing to extending valourisation of scientific outputs and pursuing the quest for new collaborative partners in applied settings. In 2015, UCT Prague opened Technopark Kralupy, a science and technology hub focused on chemistry for building construction applications, materials engineering, and related fields. The Technopark plays an essential role in UCT Prague’s technology transfer efforts and strategies.
The Research and Technology Transfer Office facilitates internal grants for researchers and students, offers opportunities to compete in prestigious research competitions, and promotes active engagement and participation in student conferences.
UCT Prague is an attractive institution for young scientists and early career researchers, and the Project Centre actively supports hosting and mentoring ECRs, e.g. as part of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. Here, ECRs can apply for a prestigious start-up grant, the Dagmar Procházková Fund, in order to create their own UCT Prague research groups. Postdoctoral fellows at UCT Prague receive extensive international mobility support for broadening their research horizons.
UCT Prague is actively involved in global scientific efforts and is continuously expanding and deepening its collaborations with partners around the world. The basic pillars of these activities include scientific research projects, inter-university cooperation memoranda, and Erasmus+ agreements. UCT Prague additionally creates and accredits joint study programmes with universities abroad.
Paving the way for the European Commission’s HR Excellence in Research Award, UCT Prague is committed to creating collegial working conditions, supporting continuous professional development, and transparent hiring procedures. The Personnel Department co-creates facilities for employees together with the Welcome Centre, which supports employees arriving from abroad, from assisting with the visa process to answering questions about everyday life in Prague. In its determination to be an attractive and welcoming institution for all employees and students, UCT Prague has created a Gender Equality Plan, an executive action initiative.

DATA
stdClass Object ( [nazev] => 3D mapping as an analytical tool for investigating drug particles [seo_title] => 3D mapping as an analytical tool for investigating drug particles [seo_desc] => [autor] => [autor_email] => [perex] =>A study conducted by researchers from the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague sheds light on the properties and performance of dry-coated paracetamol particles, utilizing carnauba wax as the coating agent. The study, which employed advanced Raman mapping techniques, provides valuable insights into the thickness, homogeneity, and dissolution characteristics of the coated particles.
[ikona] => [obrazek] => [ogobrazek] => [pozadi] => [obsah] =>Fig. 1. Graphical abstract
The research focused on utilizing carnauba wax as a dissolution retardant to improve the drug delivery properties of paracetamol. By employing non-destructive Raman mapping, the scientists were able to examine the coated particles without altering their structure. This unique application of Raman mapping technique applied for dry-coated particles revealed the presence of two distinct forms of wax on the surface of paracetamol particles, forming a porous coating layer.
The first form involved intact wax particles residing on the surface of paracetamol, adhering to other wax particles present. The second form consisted of deformed wax particles spread across the surface. This unique coating structure provided a porous layer, offering promising potential for controlled drug release.
Remarkably, the study found that the coating thickness exhibited significant variability in the range of few microns, regardless of the final particle size fraction. This finding highlights the need for precise analytical method to characterize the coating thickness in pharmaceutical products to ensure optimal drug release profiles.
Furthermore, the researchers confirmed the ability of carnauba wax to effectively decrease the dissolution rate of paracetamol through experiments with powder and tablet formulations. The dissolution rate was observed to be slower for larger coated particles, demonstrating the influence of particle size on drug release kinetics.
Importantly, the study emphasized the critical role of subsequent formulation processes, such as tableting, in further reducing the dissolution rate. These findings underscore the significant impact of formulation techniques on the final quality and performance of pharmaceutical products.
Dr. Georgia Koutentaki commented on the implications of the research, stating, "Our investigation highlights the potential of carnauba wax as a valuable coating agent for enhancing the performance of fast-dissolving drugs like paracetamol. By understanding the coating structure and its impact on dissolution rates, we can optimize drug delivery systems and develop more effective pharmaceutical formulations."
The findings of this research hold considerable promise for the pharmaceutical industry, providing a deeper understanding of dry-coated paracetamol particles and their potential applications for controlled drug release. The development of improved drug delivery systems has the potential to enhance patient experiences and optimize therapeutic outcomes.
