Thermodynamic study of polyethylene-glycols in micellar solutions water+sodium dodecylsulfate

Interactions of a series of polyethyleneglycols (PEG) in aqueous micellar solutions of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) were investigated through thermodynamic properties. Volumes, heat capacities and enthalpies of dilution were measured at 25°C. The resulting transfer properties of PEG are reflecting hydrophobic interactions which increase with the polymer length and the hydrophilic interactions occurring in the aqueous polar layer of the micelles. Typically heat capacities clearly evidence various structural changes taking place in the micellar solutions.     

Determination of Diazepam and associated compounds in pharmaceutical preparations

A method for determining Diazepam and its associated compounds in pharmaceutical products by micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is described. The separation was carried out at 30?°C and 25 kV, using a 25 mM borate buffer (pH 9.6) and 35 mM sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) water solution. Under these conditions the analysis was carried out within 12 min with acceptable limits of detection and quantification. The method has been applied for quantifying Diazepam in different commercial formulations when it is the active drug and when it is employed associated with other drugs (Nortriptyline, Pyridoxine hydrochloride and Sulpiride).     

Enthalpy of solution of phenoxyalcohols solubilized in aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide solutions

The enthalpy of solution of phenoxy 2-ethanol, 1 phenoxy,-3 propanol and benzylalcohol was determined at 25 °C in aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide solution, up to 0.2 mol/kg surfactant concentration. Using the pseudo-phase model, the standard enthalpy of transfer and the partition coefficient of the alcohols between micelle and water are calculated. The latter quantity is found to be systematically larger when derived from enthalpy than from free energy measurements. Using the so-called compensation plot, the solution thermodynamics of aromatic and aliphatic alcohols in aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate and in the octane+water systems are compared. Aromatic alcohols display an anomalous behavior in the octane+ water system but not in the micellar one.The standard enthalpy of solution of various alcohols presents, when plotted against hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide concentration, a shoulder in the region around 0.05 mol/kg; a discussion is presented on the evidence for alleged micellar structural changes in aqueous micellar systems.

Enhanced Fluorescence And Room Temperature Liquid Phosprorescence Detection In Pseudophase Liquid Chromatography (Plc)

Abstract

The effect of a micellar mobile phase on the fluorescence detection of a variety of polynucleararomatic hydrocarbons (PAH's) separated via HPLC is examined. It was found that the “fluorescence peaks” of the separated PAH's were enhanced up to ten times by the sodium dodecylsulfate micellar mobile phase. Furthermore, one can use room temperature liquid phosphorescence detection when the mobile phase consists of a deoxygenated aqueous solution of thallium and sodium dodecylsulfate micelles. The phosphorescence intensity was relatively weak and difficult to obtain compared to the fluorescence.     

Effect of Temperature on the Binding and Distribution Characteristics of Thionine in Sodium Dodecylsulfate Micelles

The interaction between thionine (a cationic thiazine dye) and anionic surfactant sodium dodecylsulfate in aqueous solution at different temperatures has been studied spectrophotometrically. The absorption spectra were used to quantify the dye/surfactant binding constants and surfactant/water partition coefficients of the dye by applying mathematical models that consider partitioning of the dye between the micellar and aqueous pseudo-phases. The Benesi-Hildebrand equation was applied to calculate the binding constants of thionine to sodium dodecylsulfate micelles over a temperature range of 293 to 333 K. To evaluate the thermodynamic aspects of the interaction of thionine with sodium dodecylsulfate micelles, Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy changes were determined. The effect of temperature on the critical micelle concentration of sodium dodecylsulfate in the presence of thionine was also studied and discussed. The binding affinity of thionine to the sodium dodecylsulfate micelles significantly decreased with increasing temperature because of the thermal agitation.     

Effective self-diffusion coefficients of ions in sodium dodecyl sulfate micellar solutions

The effective self-diffusion coefficients of ions in premicellar and micellar solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate are measured by the NMR self-diffusion method at 40°C. The obtained regularities are explained using a proposed model that takes into account the possible surface diffusion of counterions bound with micelles. This effect is shown to markedly influence the charge transfer in micellar solutions. Based on the results obtained, the self-diffusion coefficients of bound Na⁺ counterions are estimated and the causes and ranges of their variations are indicated.     

Thermodynamics of micellization of ionic surfactant/alkoxyethanol mixed micelles as a function of temperature

Estimates of the thermodynamic parameters of micellization ((_micG°, (_micH°, and (_micS°) have been determined for a series of mixed micelles consisting of ionic surfactants (sodium dodecylsulfate and dodecyltrimethylamonium bromide) and medium chain length alkoxyethanols as the co surfactant. The enthalpies of micellization have been measured directly for the above systems using isoperibol solution calorimetry; the Gibbs energies and entropies of micellization are obtained by application of the mass-action model to the critical micelle concentration values from the calorimetric titration experiments. The thermodynamic properties of mixed micelle formation with alcohol concentration and temperature are in excellent agreement with our previous results. However, there does appear to be some dependence of the thermodynamic properties of mixed micelle formation on the charge of the ionic surfactant. These dependencies are discussed in terms of the manner in which the ethylene oxide group of the alcohol interacts with the ionic head groups and the location of the solubilizates in the micellar interior.     

Determination of ticagrelol in rat plasma and tablets by micellar electrokinetic chromatography coupled with large volume sample stacking: Application to a pharmacokinetic study

A method using micellar electrokinetic chromatography coupled with large-volume sample stacking for the determination of ticagrelol was developed and validated. The analysis was performed in a fused silica capillary (41.5 cm effective length, 50 μm diameter) with ultraviolet detection at 195 nm. The background electrolytes were 30 mM phosphate buffer of pH 3.0 with 120 mM sodium dodecylsulfate and 10 % (v/v) acetonitrile (120 s X 50 mbar; 20°C; -18 kV) and 30 mM borate buffer of pH 8.5 with 75 mM sodium dodecylsulfate (120 s X 50 mbar; 20°C; 25 kV); under acidic and alkaline conditions, respectively. The method was found to be reliable with respect to specificity, linearity of the calibration line (R² > 0.99), repeatability (relative standard deviation 2.56%–3.34%), and accuracy (recovery in the range 101.21%–102.67%). The limits of detection and quantitation were 0.032, 0.071, and 0.087, 0.188 μg/mL, respectively. The method was successfully applied for the determination of ticagrelol concentrations in rat plasma and tablets with good recoveries and reproducibility. The presented method proved to be suitable for monitoring ticagrelor in rat plasma.     

Coupled tracer diffusion coefficients of solubilizates in ionic micelle solutions from liquid chromatography

The peak-broadening (Taylor dispersion) method is used to measure the diffusion of traces of alcohols (ethanol, n-butanol, n-hexanol, n-octanol, n-decanol) in aqueous solutions of sodium dodecylsulfate micelles at 25°C. A small quantity of each alcohol is injected into a long capillary tube containing a laminar stream of the micelle solution. The tracer diffusion coefficient is calculated from the broadened distribution of the eluted alcohol which is measured by differential refractometry. The fraction of each alcohol that is solubilized by the micelles is estimated from the drop in the diffusion coefficient relative to the value for the free alcohol molecules in pure water. The refractive index profiles across the dispersed samples are analyzed to obtain the cross-diffusion coefficient which gives the coupled flow of sodium dodecylsulfate produced by the tracer diffusion of each alcohol.     

Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography as an alternative method for determination of hydrocortisone and its most important associated compounds in local pharmaceutical preparations

Summary A new, simple, and accurate micellar electrokinetic chromatographic (MEKC) method is described for quantification of hydrocortisone, hydrocortisone hemisuccinate, hydrocortisone acetate, mystatin, oxytetracycline, Zn-bacitracin, polymyxin B, and lidocaine in ocular and cutaneous pharmaceutical products. The separation was performed at 25°C and 25 kV, with 15mm phosphate +15mm borate buffer, pH 8.2, and 60mm sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) in 10∶1 (%,v/v) methanol-water as background electrolyte. Under these conditions the analysis time is approximately 23 min. The method has been used for quantification of these compounds in different commercial pharmaceutical products and gave good results when compared with reference spectrophotometric and HPLC methods.     

Determination of ibuprofen and tetrazepam in human urine by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography

A new micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography method (MEKC) is proposed for the determination of ibuprofen and tetrazepam in human urine samples over a concentration range of therapeutic interest. A fused silica capillary (60 cm × 75 μm) is used. Ibuprofen and tetrazepam are detected via UV detection at 220 and 228 nm, respectively. Separation is performed at 25 °C and at a separation voltage of 30 kV, with 15 mM borate buffer (pH 10.2) containing 40 mM sodium dodecylsulfate as the electrolyte solution. Under these conditions the analytes were separated in <11 min. Sulfamethazine is used as an internal standard. Prior to determination, the samples are purified and enriched by means of an extraction–preconcentration step with a preconditioned C₁₈ cartridge and by eluting the compounds with methanol. Good linearity, accuracy, precision, robustness and solution stability were achieved for the technique. Detection limits of 200 μg L⁻¹ for ibuprofen and 300 μg L⁻¹ for tetrazepam were obtained. These analytes were then determined in real urine using the technique.     

Aggregation number of aqueous sodium cholate micelles from mutual diffusion measurements

With reported values ranging from about 3 to 16, the aggregation number of aqueous sodium cholate micelles is not well established. To provide new information on the aggregation of a bile salt, Taylor dispersion is used to measure the binary mutual diffusion coefficientD of aqueous sodium cholate at concentrations from 0.001 to 0.100 mol-dm^-3 at 25°C. The results are compared with calculatedD values based on the association equilibrium nCholate^- + βnNa⁺ ⇋ (NaβCholate) _n ^(β-1)n wheren is the aggregation number and β is the degree of sodium counterion binding. Fitting the association model to the diffusion data givesn = 3.9±0.6 and β = 0.21 ±0.08. In contrast to the drop inD with increasing concentration of sodium cholate, the diffusion coefficients of sodium dodecylsulfate and other long-chain ionic surfactants increase above the critical micelle region. The ent diffusion behavior of the surfactants is related to changes in the driving forces and mobilities caused by ion association.     

Analysis of clindamycin by micellar electrokinetic chromatography with a mixed micellar system.

This study details the development and validation of an optimized method with micellar electrokinetic chromatography for the analysis of clindamycin. The method uses a mixed micellar phase containing anionic sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and non ionic Brij 35 on an untreated fused-silica capillary. The influences of buffer concentration, pH, SDS, Brij 35 and organic modifier were investigated. Special attention was given to the role of the non ionic Brij 35 in the mixed micellar system. Optimization with a central composite design resulted in optimal separation conditions: background electrolyte containing 25 mM sodium tetraborate pH 7.75, 90 mM SDS, 14 mM Brij 35 and 21% acetonitrile. The applied voltage was 15 kV and the capillary temperature 15 degrees C. The method was robust and gave good linearity and repeatability. The limits of detection and quantitation were 0.05 and 0.15%, respectively, relative to a 2.5 mg/ml clindamycin solution. Two commercial bulk products were analysed with this system.     

Effect of manganese(III) Schiff base complexes on the hydrolysis of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-nitrophenyl picolinate

Two mono-Schiff base Mn(III) complexes were used to catalyze the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl picolinate (PNPP) in micellar solutions of n-lauroylsarcosine sodium (LSS) and polyoxyethylene(23) lauryl ether (Brij35). The results show that both catalysts enhance the hydrolysis of PNPP by over two orders of magnitude relative to the spontaneous rate at 25 °C. Moreover, Mn(III)-promoted hydrolysis of PNPP was faster in LSS micellar solution than in both Brij35 micellar solution and pure buffer.

Use of Micelles in the TLC Separation of Polynuclear Aromatic Compounds and Amino Acids

Abstract

The polynuclear aromatic compounds (PNA): anthracene, napthalene, phenanthrene, pyrene, pyrenecarboxaldehyde, benzo (a) pyrene, benzo (e) pyrene, perylene and fluorene can be chromatographed on polyamide TLC sheets using an aqueous micellar solution cf sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) as the mobile phase. Reversed micellar solutions (of sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate) were used in a reverse phase chromatographic separation of amino acids. Some amino acids tended to streak slightly rather than move as discrete spots. Conditions could be adjusted, however, so that most of the amino acids and all PNA's would move as spots.     

STUDIES ON THERMOKINETICS(XVI) THE KINETICS OF THE POLYMERIZATION OF ACRYLAMIDE IN MICELLAR SOLUTION

The kinetics of the polymerization of acrylamide in aqueous solution and CTAB micellar solution initiated by sodium sulfite has been investigated with the theory and method of thermokinetics for n order reactions with equal concentration in this paper. The influence of initiator and CTAB concetrations on molecular weight of polyacrylamide has been discussed.The second—order rate constants of this reaction at 30 and 40°C in aqueous solution are 0. 112and 0. 0262dm³ mol^-1s^_1, respectively. The activation energy,based on measurements at these two temperatures,is 66. -4kJ mol^-1. The ratio k2√n in CTAB micellar solution is smaller than that in aqueous solution. The rate of forming radical in micellar solution has been decreased.
