  • Patent number: 11484580
    Abstract: A composition of botulinum toxin is claimed which can penetrate into the ocular surface inclusive of a penetration through a conjunctiva, cornea, and other structures. This composition allows for a maximal penetration of a topical preparation of botulinum toxin which serves to reduce the need for frequent allergy drops for the treatment of ocular surface disease and other conditions causing ocular surface inflammation or deep ocular inflammation. No puncture of the needle is necessary for the administration. Herein describes a novel composition using several principles based on composition, method of application, which enhances the effectiveness of the penetration.

  • Patent number: 10981861
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a bromination method for m-diamide compounds comprising reacting a compound represented by formula I with a brominating reagent in the presence of an oxidant to obtain a brominated product represented by formula II. The method adopts a special design of brominating reagents and reaction conditions to introduce a bromine atom at a specific site of the m-diamide compound, with 87.9 to 99.5% yield of a brominated product obtained by the reaction and higher than 91.8% purity. Therefore, the bromination method has a simple route, mild reaction conditions, high efficiency, and does not require complicated and cumbersome post-treatment processes; furthermore, raw materials used for the bromination reaction are readily available, costs of the brominating reagent are low, and the brominated product finally obtained has high yield and high purity, thus the method is a novel one with a broad application prospect.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for labelling fluorine-18, which is a radioisotope, and more specifically, to a method for labelling a [18F]fluoride in a method for preparing an organic [18F]fluoro compound by reacting an alkyl halide or an alkyl sulfonate with a [18F]fluoride, wherein a [18F]fluoride supported on a quaternary alkyl ammonium polymer support is eluted using a solution containing a metal salt or a quaternary ammonium salt with an adjusted pH, and a base is not additionally used. The present invention enables a labeling reaction without an additional base after precisely reflecting the concentration of a base absolutely necessary for the nucleophilic substitution of a [18F]fluoride or eluting a [18F]fluoride using a [18F]fluoride eluent with an adjusted pH, thereby stably obtaining a [18F]fluoride-labelled compound in a high yield, and is thus useful for production of fluorine-18-labelled radioactive medical supplies.
