Novel Use of Manganese Gluconate as a Marker for Visualization of Tablet Dissolution in the Fed Human Stomach Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (2024)
Journal Article
Akbar, T., Gershkovich, P., Stamatopoulos, K., Gowland, P., Stolnik, S., Butler, J., & Marciani, L. (2025). Novel Use of Manganese Gluconate as a Marker for Visualization of Tablet Dissolution in the Fed Human Stomach Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Molecular Pharmaceutics, 22(1), 594-598. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.molpharmaceut.4c00854

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of dry or solid materials in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract requires the use of contrast agents to enhance visualisation of the dosage forms. In this study, we explore the novel use of manganese gluconate added to ta...

Application of In Vivo MRI Imaging to Track a Coated Capsule and Its Disintegration in the Gastrointestinal Tract in Human Volunteers (2022)
Journal Article
Sulaiman, S., Gershkovich, P., Hoad, C. L., Calladine, M., Spiller, R. C., Stolnik, S., & Marciani, L. (2022). Application of In Vivo MRI Imaging to Track a Coated Capsule and Its Disintegration in the Gastrointestinal Tract in Human Volunteers. Pharmaceutics, 14(2), Article 270. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics14020270

Oral specially coated formulations have the potential to improve treatment outcomes of a range of diseases in distal intestinal tract whilst limiting systemic drug absorption and adverse effects. Their development is challenging, partly because of li...

Journal Article
Jewell, A., Williams, H., Hoad, C. L., Gellert, P. R., Ashford, M. B., Butler, J., Stolnik, S., Scurr, D., Stocks, M. J., Marciani, L., Gowland, P. A., & Gershkovich, P. (2021). Assessing lymphatic uptake of lipids using magnetic resonance imaging: A feasibility study in healthy human volunteers with potential application for tracking lymph node delivery of drugs and formulation excipients. Pharmaceutics, 13(9), Article 1343. https://doi.org/10.3390/pharmaceutics13091343

Dietary lipids and some pharmaceutical lipid excipients can facilitate the targeted delivery of drugs to the intestinal lymphatics. Here, the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for imaging lipid uptake into the intestinal lymphatics was...

A simple and efficient method for polymer coating of iron oxide nanoparticles (2019)
Journal Article
Abushrida, A., Elhuni, I., Taresco, V., Marciani, L., Stolnik, S., & Garnett, M. C. (2020). A simple and efficient method for polymer coating of iron oxide nanoparticles. Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology, 55, Article 101460. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jddst.2019.101460

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP) have many possible uses including as MRI contrast agents, for drug delivery and cell labelling, but need to be stabilised and to be rendered biocompatible through appropriate coatings. Many current coatings are subopti... Read More about A simple and efficient method for polymer coating of iron oxide nanoparticles.
