Organically modified xerogels as supports for solid-phase chemistry

Organically modified xerogels (OMX_NH2) can be used as an easy to handle and chemically stable support in solid-phase chemistry and are compatible with enzymatic transformations.     

Further studies on the bioconversion of penicillin G into deacetoxycephalosporin G by resting cells of Streptomyces clavuligerus NP-1

Resting cells of Streptomyces clavuligerus NP-1, which posses deacetoxy-cephalosporin C synthase activity, have been shown previously to perform oxidative ring expansion of penicillin G in the presence of iron, ascorbic acid, and α-ketoglutaric acid to form deacetoxycephalosporin G. Further studies on this bioconversion indicated that use of MOPS or HEPES buffer at pH 6.5 more than doubled the extent of the reaction observed with the previously used Tris-HCl at pH 7.4. Levels of bioconversion as high as 16.5% were achieved at low penicillin G concentrations. Previously, conversion yields were <1%.     

Novel approaches to the purification of penicillin acylase

Penicillin acylase ofE. coli NCIM 2400 has been purified to homogeneity using a combination of hydrophobic interaction chromatography and DEAE-cellulose treatment. A variety of substituted matrices were synthesized using D- or DL-phenylglycine, norleucine, ampicillin, or amoxycillin as ligands, all of which retained penicillin acylase at high concentrations of ammonium sulfate or sodium sulfate. The enzyme could be eluted nonbiospecifically by buffer of lower ionic strength with over 95% recovery of the activity. Ammonium chloride, ammonium nitrate, sodium chloride, sodium nitrate, and potassium chloride were ineffective in either adsorption or elution of the enzyme on these columns. Further purification of this partially pure enzyme with DEAE-cellulose at pH 7.0–7.2 yielded an enzyme preparation of very high purity according to electrophoretic and ultracentrifugal analyses, its specific activity being as high as 37 U/mg protein. The purifiedf enzyme has a molecular weight of 67,000 a sedimentation coefficient of 4.0S, and resolves into two forms upon isoelectric focusing. Overall recoveries ranged between 75 and 85%. Ease of operation, high recoveries, high purity of the enzyme and prolonged reuse of the conjugates make the process economically feasible and possibly of great commercial importance.

Organically modified xerogels as novel tailor-made supports for covalent immobilisation of enzymes (penicillin G acylase)

A novel application of organically modified silicates for covalent immobilisation of penicillin G acylase is reported. The immobilisation is efficient and the enzymatic preparation shows high specific activity and thermal stability. The technique opens new perspectives for the preparation of innovative tailor-made supports matching specific requirements of enzymatic processes.     

Immobilization of penicillin acylase in porous beads of polyacrylamide gel

A procedure is described for the immobilization of benzylpenicillin acylase from Escherichia coli within uniformly spherical, porous polyacrylamide gel beads. Aqueous solutions of the enzyme and sodium alginate and of acrylamide monomer, N,N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide, N,N,N,N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TEMED) and sodium alginate are cooled separately, mixed, and dropped immediately into ice-cold, buffered calcium formate solution, pH 8.5, to give calcium alginate-coated beads. The beads are left for 30-60 min in the cold calcium formate solution for polyacrylamide gel formation. The beads are then treated with a solution of glutaraldehyde and the calcium alginate subsequently leached out with a solution of potassium phosphate. Modification of the native enzyme with glutaraldehyde results in a slight enhancement in the rate of hydrolysis of benzylpenicillin at pH 7.8 and 0.05M substrate concentration. The enzyme entrapped in porous polyacrylamide gel beads shows no measurable diffusional limitation in stirred reactors, catalyzing the hydrolysis of the substrate at a rate comparable to that of the glutaraldehyde-modified native enzyme. The immobilized enzyme preparation has been used in batch mode over 90 cycles without any apparent loss in hydrolytic activity.

Development of quantitative HPTLC-densitometry methods following a model approach for transfer of TLC screening methods for pharmaceutical products of atenolol,chloramphenicol, furosemide,glibenclamide, penicillin V potassium,and praziquantel

Transfer of six thin-layer chromatography (TLC) Global Pharma Health Fund E.V. Minilab manual protocols for detecting fake drugs in pharmaceutical products to quantitative high-performance TLC (HPTLC)-densitometry methods was performed following a previously published model process. The developed and validated methods for tablets or capsules containing atenolol, chloramphenicol, furosemide, glibenclamide, penicillin V potassium, and praziquantel involved use of a limited list of inexpensive, relatively nontoxic, readily available solvents and other reagents; silica gel 60?F₂₅₄ plates; automated bandwise sample and standard solution application; ascending mobile phase development of plates in a chamber; and automated slit scanning densitometry for detection, identification, and quantification. Validation data for methods developed in an early version of the transfer model process that did not include standard addition validation are reported for pharmaceutical products containing amitriptyline HCl, amodiaquine, diphenhydramine HCl, and mebendazole.     

A kinetic study of synthesis of amoxicillin using penicillin G acylase immobilized on agarose

We presenta kinetic model for the synthesis of amoxicillin from p-hydroxyphenylglycine methyl ester and 6-aminopenicillanic acid, catalyzed by penicillin G acylase immobilized on agarose, at 25°C. Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters (with and without inhibition) were obtained from initial velocity data (pH 7.5 and 6.5). Amoxicillin synthesis reactions were used to validate the kinetic model after checking mass transport effects. A reasonable representation of this system was achieved under some operational conditions, but the model failed under others. Nevertheless, it will be useful whenever a simplified model is required, e.g., in model-based control algorithms for the enzymatic reactor.
