N-acetylsulfanilyl chloride is a white coloured powder, soluble in organic solvents and slightly soluble in water. It is a versatile chemical compound that has numerous applications in industries, such as Agro and Pharmaceuticals.
Targeted drug delivery revolutionises treatment by focusing medications on specific tissues, reducing the impact on healthy cells. Scientists enhance this precision with carriers like microspheres and nanoparticles, controlling release and absorption. Microspheres, made from biodegradable proteins or polymers, sustain drug release, making them ideal for targeted therapies, especially in oncology. Beyond drug delivery, microspheres open new possibilities across industries—from next-gen coatings to thermal insulation. With tailored sizes, shapes, and materials, they drive advancements in pharmaceuticals, advanced materials, and more.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has proposed a new rule to require standardized testing of talc-containing cosmetics for asbestos. The FDA noted that this move aims to protect consumers from potential harm posed by asbestos, a known carcinogen linked to serious illnesses such as lung and ovarian cancers.
