Medicines in Breast Milk and Estimated Infant Exposure

The MedMilk (Medication concentrations in human Milk) study investigates how selected medicines taken by breastfeeding women are transferred into human milk and whether this may affect the breastfed child. The study includes breastfeeding women who are already using prescription or over-the-counter medicines as part of their usual care. Participants provide samples of breast milk and urine and complete a questionnaire about maternal and infant health. The collected data will be used to quantify medicine concentrations in milk and estimate the relative infant dose. The study aims to contribute new data to support safer prescribing and more informed counselling during breastfeeding

A Clinical Trial to Assess the Pharmacokinetic Profile of Three Coenzyme Q10 Formulations in Healthy Adults

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of three Coenzyme Q10 formulations in healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the difference in the bioavailability of three Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) formulations as assessed by the incremental area-under-the-curve (AUC) from time 0 to the last measured timepoint (AUC0-72hr)? Participants will be asked to consume three formulations of CoQ10 and will be evaluated for CoQ10 levels in blood, over a 71-day period.

The Microalga Phaeodactylum Tricornutum a Potential Fish Substitute?- Pharmacokinetic Study

In a cross-over design, pestos enriched with different levels of the microalgae Phaeodactylumtricornutum (2-3-4%) will be tested. The bioavailability of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, in particular EPA and carotenoids, will be analysed in blood plasma postprandially within two days after a single dose. Pharmacokinetic parameters will be calculated from the measured data. The aim of the study is to gain insight into the bioavailability of selected microalgae constituents and the acceptance of microalgae pesto.
