Ibuprofen is one of the most successful drugs used worldwide for the treatment of mild to moderate pain and various inflammatory conditions, even in a low-dose form for over-the-counter (OTC), non-prescription sale. Over the past 40 years, ibuprofen has been proven to be as safe or safer and just as effective as established non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or coxibs. This book reviews the pharmacology, clinical uses and adverse effects of ibuprofen. Its disposition and unique modes of action in relation to clinical effects are discussed as well as various formulations and the impact of food and other variables on its actions and gastro-intestinal safety. The use of combinations of ibuprofen with other drugs (e.g. paracetamol, codeine and caffeine) are critically assessed. There are already some indications of potential therapeutic benefits of the drug combinations in treating certain painful conditions, while still retaining the relative safety benefits of ibuprofen (at least at OTC dosages). The impact of natural products and Chinese Medicines on the safety of ibuprofen is also reviewed. The book is written in a more general style, including explanatory diagrams, for anyone interested in the properties, actions and uses of ibuprofen.

Water pollution from biorefractory pollutants and emerging contaminants is still a very relevant problem worldwide. Examples of these pollutants include disinfection by-products, pharmaceutical and personal care products, persistent organic chemicals, as well as their degradation products. The occurrence of these contaminants in water has raised increasing concern due to their accumulation and persistence in the environment and the threat they pose to the ecological system and human health. In this Special Issue, papers regarding the advancements in materials and processes for use in the electro- and photoelectrochemical removal of different pollutants from water are collected. The synthesis, characterization and application of materials for use in electrochemical or photoelectrochemical techniques are presented, as well as studies concerning catalytic processes and reaction kinetics.

Technology: general issues --- Chemical engineering --- Au-TiO2 --- antibiotics --- emergent contaminants --- nanocatalyst --- photocatalysis --- GFN-xTB --- ibuprofen --- advanced oxidation process --- TiO2 --- active glass --- heterojunction --- charge separation --- chlorpyrifos --- photodegradation --- nanoparticles --- gold --- cyclodextrins --- perfluorooctanoic acid --- emerging contaminant --- defluorination --- platinum --- electro-oxidation --- strontium carbonate (SrCO3) --- solvothermal method --- visible light --- diethyl phthalate --- photoelectrochemical degradation --- persistent organic pollutants --- chloride ions --- TiO2 nanotubes --- g-C3N4 --- response surface methodology --- wastewater treatment --- phenol --- crude oil --- sonolysis --- sonophotocatalysis --- FT-ICR/MS --- Kendrick plot --- van Krevelen diagram --- water --- pollution --- remediation --- Au-TiO2 --- antibiotics --- emergent contaminants --- nanocatalyst --- photocatalysis --- GFN-xTB --- ibuprofen --- advanced oxidation process --- TiO2 --- active glass --- heterojunction --- charge separation --- chlorpyrifos --- photodegradation --- nanoparticles --- gold --- cyclodextrins --- perfluorooctanoic acid --- emerging contaminant --- defluorination --- platinum --- electro-oxidation --- strontium carbonate (SrCO3) --- solvothermal method --- visible light --- diethyl phthalate --- photoelectrochemical degradation --- persistent organic pollutants --- chloride ions --- TiO2 nanotubes --- g-C3N4 --- response surface methodology --- wastewater treatment --- phenol --- crude oil --- sonolysis --- sonophotocatalysis --- FT-ICR/MS --- Kendrick plot --- van Krevelen diagram --- water --- pollution --- remediation
