Published: April 2024

Aim. To determine the factors affecting the level of loyalty of pharmacists and assess their importance.Materials and methods. Survey (questionnaire), methods of logical and graphic analysis, grouping and generalization, descriptive statistics were used.Results and discussion. Based on the results of a questionnaire survey of pharmacists working in pharmaceutical institutions of Ukraine, the factors affecting the increase in loyalty of pharmacy employees have been assessed. All factors of influence are divided into categories, each of which includes three factors related to direction and content. It has been found that financial incentives, stability, safety and working conditions have the greatest influence on the loyalty of pharmacists to the company where they work. It has been noted that in these categories, high wages, an adequate, fair and transparent system of bonuses, a convenient work schedule, stability and confidence in the future, and the availability of a social package have the greatest impact on loyalty. Categories, such as respect and recognition of achievements, corporate culture and development opportunities, have an average impact. Respondents believe that the categories of factors related to the organization of management, relationships in the team and the content of work have a lesser influence on their loyalty level. The “Pyramid of the staff loyalty” has also been developed. It reflects the importance of factors for creating and maintaining an employee’s sense of loyalty to the company. Its connection with the levels formulated in the Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs has been noted. Conclusions. Using the questionnaire survey method, the factors affecting the creation and increase of the employees’ loyalty in pharmaceutical organizations have been assessed according to the degree of their importance.

Published: April 2024

One of the most important pharmaceutical factors is excipients, their nature and quantity, which increase the pharmacological activity and safety of APIs by creating dosage forms that are optimal in composition, properties, and type, and/or by changing the chemical modification of the molecule responsible for the pharmacological effect of the active substance. Variability or variation in the number of excipients and the use of different excipients with the same intended functionality can complicate the release rate and bioavailability of drugs. The use of mathematical methods at the stage of the experiment planning reduces the total number of experiments and at the same time provides reliable results. Aim. To study the most used types of mathematical planning of the experiment, and select the most acceptable model for developing the optimal composition of a vaginal ointment with the thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) essential oil. Results and discussions. To develop the optimal composition of the ointment, 10 bases containing various excipients (factor A) and 6 excipients as an emulsifier (factor B) were used. The concentration of the thyme essential oil was 5 % in all samples. The degree of thymol release in the in vitro study using the equilibrium dialysis method was chosen as the criterion for choosing the optimal composition. The selection of excipients for the development of a soft dosage form was carried out using the method of the a priori ranking since both bases and emulsifiers were selected as the most widely used in the pharmaceutical technology, with known characteristics, safety profile, application experience. Conclusions. The degree of influence of each factor has been determined, and the series of Duncan’s test have been constructed for each factor – by factor a: а3 > а5 > а4 > а6 > а2 > а8 > а7 > а10 > а9> а1, and by factor b: b2 > b3 > b5 > b4 > b6 > b1. Based on the mathematical planning of the experiment, an ointment base and an emulsifier for developing the composition of a vaginal gel with the thyme oil have been determine.

Published: April 2024

The modern arsenal of drugs aimed at eliminating pathological processes of the anorectal zone, as a rule, consists of suppositories and soft drugs. When using suppositories, hemorrhoidal nodes may be injured, uneven distribution of the drug along the walls of the anal canal may be observed. In addition, with external and combined hemorrhoids, there is a need to apply the drug not only to the walls of the anal canal, but also to the perianal skin. Therefore, preference is given to the use of soft drugs since the process of their introduction is as easy as possible. Today, the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine has a wide range of products for the treatment of diseases of the anorectal zone, but the constant increase in the number of patients indicates that this problem has not been solved. Therefore, the study on the creation of a new rectal soft medicine that will have a complex effect on pathological processes and expand the range of domestic drugs for use in proctology is relevant.
Aim. To substantiate the type of base for a soft rectal medicine by studying the organoleptic and physicochemical properties of the experimental samples.
Materials and methods. The study objects were samples of a soft dosage form of various compositions and the reference drug “Procto-Glivenol Cream” (VAMPHARMA S.R.L., Italy). Samples on different carrier bases were examined by their organoleptic and textural properties; their colloidal and thermal stability, viscosity and pH were studied.
Results and discussion. It has been found that the use of a sample on a gel base with Aristoflex does not ensure the presence of an optimal adhesive layer between the mucous membrane of the anorectal zone and the dispersion medium of the drug. The proxanol-188 sample does not have satisfactory thermal and colloidal stability indicators. The use of an emulsion base provides the necessary ability to spread over the surface, adhesion and cohesion.
Conclusions. Therefore, for further research, it is advisable to use a sample of the rectal cream, which is an emulsion system.

Aim. To study the pharmacological activity of a dry extract of clary sage (DECS) growing in Tajikistan and its pharmacotechnological properties as basic stages in the development of the composition and technology of hard gelatin capsules with its content.
Materials and methods. For the studies, we used DECS standardized by the content of the total amount of flavonoids and hydroxycinnamic acids. The quantitative content of the total amount of flavonoids was not less than 13.0 % calculated with reference to apigenin, and the quantitative content of the total amount of hydroxycinnamic acids was not less than 1.2 % calculated with reference to rosmarinic acid. The pharmacotechnological properties of DECS were studied according to methods of the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine (SPhU).
Results and discussion. During screening, all doses of DECS studied showed a moderate diuretic activity. Thus, when using DECS in the dose of 100 mg/kg, the relative volume of the urine excreted by rats for 5 hours increased by 1.9 times, in the dose of 200 mg/kg – by 2.0 times, in the dose of 300 mg/kg – by 1.8 times compared to the same indicator in the negative control group (p˂0.05). When studying the complex of pharmacotechnological properties, it was found that DECS was a finely dispersed amorphous powder with particles of isodiametric form. DECS had an average bulk weight of 0.515 ± 0.002 g/mL, and the fluidity assessment showed that DECS had a very poor flowability, which value in the vibration mode of the device was 2.8 ± 0.1 g/s. According to the study of the fractional composition, DECS had a clearly expressed fine fraction with a particle size of less than 0.25-0.09 mm 84.68 %.
Conclusions. Taking into account the results of the study of the diuretic activity and scientific literature data on the spectrum of the pharmacological activity of Salvia sclarea L, it is rational to consider DECS as a potential combined agent for enhancing the diuretic effect or in diseases of the urinary system accompanied by edema and inflammatory processes. The study of the pharmacotechnological indicators of DECS allows predicting the need to use certain groups of excipients to develop the composition and technology of capsules with its content, namely antifriction substances to improve fluidity and disintegrants to improve capsule disintegration, as well as substances that contribute to the compaction of bulk mass and moisture-regulating agents.

Published: April 2024

In recent times, a new understanding of the concept of probiotics has emerged – the use of their metabolites instead of living cells of microorganisms. They can both inhibit the development of pathogenic bacteria and effectively stimulate the reproduction of indigenous microflora. It is possible that metabiotics will be more effective than traditional live probiotics. Taking into account the prospects of new-generation probiotic drugs and the rapid growth of interest of pharmaceutical market entities in such a new dosage form as lozenges, we have proposed to create chewable lozenges containing Lactobacillus exometabolites, which pharmacological action is aimed at preventing and treating an imbalance of the oral cavity microflora.Aim. To theoretically and experimentally substantiate the choice of the exometabolite complex of lactobacilli as the active substance of a medicinal product with probiotic properties in the form of chewable lozenges.Materials and methods. The exometabolite complex of the Lactobacillus plantarum UCM-2693 strain was used as the study object. Acidity, the lactic acid content, the optical density of a microbial suspension, as well as the quantitative count of lactobacilli were determined in accordance with the generally accepted methods specified in the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine (SPhU).Results and discussion. The bacteriotropic effect of the exometabolite complex of L. plantarum UCM-2693 was detected on lactobacilli of the probiotic drug “Lactobacterin-Biopharma” when cultured on a medium with exometabolites compared to the control sample. This technique has a stimulating effect on the acid formation, proliferation of probiotic microorganisms, changes the characteristics of their growth phases, namely reduces the lag phase, accelerates the exponential phase, which can accelerate the onset of the therapeutic effect, and is the proof of the feasibility of using this active substance in the composition of chewable lozenges with probiotic properties.Conclusions. The choice of the exometabolite complex of lactobacilli as the active substance of a new drug from the group of metabiotics in the form of chewable lozenges has been substantiated. The exometabolite complex of lactobacilli has been obtained, and its bacteriotropic effect has been studied.

REAPING THE AFFORDANCES AND CONSTRAINTS OF CANVAS-DRIVEN ASYNCHRONOUS ONLINE DISCUSSION BOARDS (AODBs)
Authors: Sofarini Anisa , Salsabila Vina Aini
Published: April 2024

Abstract: Asynchronous online discussion board (AODB) has turned into a crucial tool for online and blended learning, as well as some in-class teaching contexts, in higher education (HE). Despite not being initially designed for teaching, it is now prominently featured as a learning autonomy promoter. This research is henceforth crucial due to the dearth of comprehensive assessments of how a technology enables lecturers to tote out the AODB-related activities. Employing technology affordance framework helped shape this study’s discoveries. Via the 16-week observations on the five lecturers’ AODBs in Canvas LMS, this study put together four supporting features, enabling this study to capture lecturers’ efforts to set up AODBs for pedagogical process. There are instruction pages, settings, search entries for authors, replies and likes. These features led this study to lump together the interview data from three lecturers into four affordances of Canvas-mediated AODB (consisting of collaboration, flexibility, knowledge record, and monitoring and assessment) and two constraints (mobile accessibility and usability for grading). The disclosure of Canvas-mediated AODBs’ affordances and constraints may introduce some brand-new details to the realm of discussion in education. Even so, further study scrutinizing various platforms and employing a variety of lecturer profiles is highly encouraged in order to result in a wider range of facts regarding AODB in HE.
READING STRATEGY IN FOCUS: NAVIGATING THE MEANING-MAKING PROCESSES IN READING MULTIMODAL TEXT
Authors: Nurviyani Vina
Published: April 2024

Indonesian EFL learners’ trouble comprehending multimodal texts was the main reason for this research. This study highlighted the reading strategy use in meaning reconstruction processes of multimodal reading. In this case, the meaning reconstruction process focused on the thinking processes of readers (EFL learners). This study applied a qualitative design (multiple case study) involving three readers studying at a private university in Indonesia. The triangulation data gained through verbal reports, non-participant observations, and interviews were analysed qualitatively. The findings show that all readers read the text while verbalizing their thoughts during the meaning reconstruction processes of the multimodal text. In the process, they segmented their verbal reports into many thought units. Each reader differently processed the thought units’ meanings through integrated reading strategies (i.e., monitoring comprehension, activating and connecting to background knowledge, questioning, inferring and visualizing meanings, determining the importance of text, summarizing and synthesizing). The use of the simultaneous integrated reading strategies is reflected in three stages of the meaning reconstruction process of reading print-based multimodal text, i.e., 1) Preparation, 2) Synchronization, and 3) Interpretation of the meaning. The complete meaning of each thought unit is reconstructed as a reader is able to implement the integrated reading strategies to find out the congruence of the multimodal information or knowledge of all reading elements (i.e., the reader’s prior knowledge, information of text, and context). Thus, reading strategies are crucial tools for reconstructing meanings of multimodal text.

Published: April 2024

Abstract: The introduction of the Merdeka curriculum has brought significant changes in the curriculum, particularly in terms of the autonomy and flexibility of teachers’ teaching especially regarding to digital literacy. The Merdeka curriculum is based on the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, which seeks to integrate subject expertise, pedagogical skills, and technological content. Despite extensive research on TPACK, there is a noticeable gap in qualitative studies that explore teacher experiences and perceptions, particularly in the context of Indonesia’s Merdeka curriculum. The novelty of this research lies in its methodological approach—using Narrative Inquiry to explore the experiences of English teachers. This approach provides a deeper, more nuanced understanding of how teachers perceive and implement TPACK in their classrooms. To gain a comprehensive understanding of this issue, we examined 50 teachers from various regions in West Java. Our findings indicate that a significant portion of teachers (55%) have successfully incorporated technology in their teaching practices. Furthermore, the majority of teachers (84%) feel confident utilizing efficient teaching strategies and delivering targeted content (80%). We note that a large percentage of teachers (76%) exhibit proficiency in integrating technology into the teaching-learning process, while also acknowledging their proficiency in technology, pedagogy, and content (79%).However, we also identified several obstacles such as internet connectivity issues, which were identified as a significant potential hindrance (68%), students' unfamiliarity with the application (20%), and data quota limitations (5%) as restrictions. A minor yet distinguished percentage illuminated issues such as school procedures (3%), lack of access to smartphones (2%), and indecision in using LCD facilities (2%) as pitching factors that hinder the smooth merging of technology into teaching and learning. Based on the available evidence, it can be inferred that despite facing several obstacles, a majority of teachers have demonstrated a high level of confidence in their ability to implement digital literacy TPACK-related skills. These skills are essential for promoting effective teaching and learning in a digital age. However, it is important to note that the challenges faced by teachers in this regard cannot be ignored. To ensure that teachers are adequately equipped to navigate these challenges, it is essential to provide them with appropriate training and support. Moreover, the result of this study could contribute to the field of English language teaching, educational technology, and policymaking in education.
