Micellization and Clouding Phenomenon of Phenothiazine Drug Promethazine Hydrochloride: Effect of NaCl and Urea Addition

Herein we report the micellization and clouding behavior of promethazine hydrochloride (PMT) in absence and presence of NaCl/ureas. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of PMT is measured by conductivity method and the values decrease with increasing the NaCl concentration. With increasing the temperature, the CMC first increases then decreases. At 25°C, the maximum CMC values were obtained (with or without NaCl). The thermodynamic parameters are evaluated which indicate more stability of the PMT solution in presence of NaCl. PMT shows phase separation also. The cloud point (CP) of PMT decreases with increase in pH due to deprotonation of the drug molecules. Ureas decreased the CP and the behavior is explained on the basis of removal of water from the head group region.     

Influence of Electrolytes on the Micellar Growth of Amphiphilic Drug Chlorpromazine Hydrochloride

The effect of electrolytes on the micellar behavior of an amphiphilic drug, chlorpromazine (CPZ) hydrochloride, was studied using cloud point (CP) and dye solubilization techniques. In the presence of KBr, increase in pH led to decrease in the CP of 50 mmol·L_-1 drug solution (prepared in 10 mmol·L_-1 sodium phosphate (SP) buffer) because of deprotonation of drug molecules at high pH. The visible absorbance increased (due to dye solubilization) with the increase in pH from 6.5 to 6.9, which indicated micellar growth. At fixed pH (6.7), addition of inorganic salts (KF, KCl, and KBr) to drug solutions (50 mmol·L_-1) caused an increase in the CP as well as in the visible absorbance, with effectiveness being in the order: F_- < Cl_- < Br_-. The results were discussed on the basis of counter-ion binding and their effect toward micellar growth. Cations (co-ions) also led to an increase in the CP (and also the visible absorbance), with their effectiveness order being Li₊ > Na₊ > K₊, which was explained by considering cognizance of their hydrated radii. Compared with anions, their effect was small. Increase in [CPZ] caused micellar growth and hence the CP as well as the visible absorbance increased. The overall behavior was discussed in terms of electrostatic interactions and micellar growth.

Study of the Cloud Point of the Phenothiazine Drug Chlorpromazine Hydrochloride: Effect of Surfactants and Polymers

Surfactants/polymers are used extensively in drug delivery as drug carriers. We herein report the effect of surfactants and polymers on the cloud point (CP) of amphiphilic drug chlorpromazine hydrochloride. At fixed drug concentration (50 mM) and pH (6.7) these additives affect the CP in accordance to their nature and structure: anionic surfactants show an increase followed by a decrease, whereas cationic (conventional as well as gemini) and nonionic surfactants show continous increase. The behavior with polymers is dictated by the number of units present in a particular polymer. Increase in drug concentration and pH, in presence of fixed amounts of CTAB, increases and decreases the CP, respectively. Variation of CP with pH at various fixed gemini concentrations shows that gemini surfactants are better candidates for drug delivery.

研究了染料曙红B与盐酸异丙嗪的结合反应.在pH=3.50的Walpole介质中,曙红B本身的共振光散射信号较弱,与盐酸异丙嗪结合形成离子缔合物后,体系的共振光散射明显增强,并且光散射增强强度与盐酸异丙嗪在一定浓度范围内成正比,据此建立了一种高灵敏测定盐酸异丙嗪的方法.在体系的最大散射波长363 nm处,测得盐酸异丙嗪的线性范围为7.5×10-8～4.5×10-6 g/mL,检测限为1.8×10-8 g/mL,用于盐酸异丙嗪片剂、针剂、人血清及尿样中盐酸异丙嗪的测定,结果令人满意.     

水溶液中两亲药物盐酸异丙嗪-表面活性剂体系的胶束化行为

The behavior of the mixed amphiphilic drug promethazine hydrochloride(PMT) and cationic as well as nonionic surfactants was studied by tensiometry.The cmc values of the PMT-surfactant systems decrease at a surfactant mole fraction of 0.1 and it then becomes constant.The critical micelle concentration(cmc) values are lower than the ideal cmc(cmc*) values for PMT/TX-100,PMT/TX-114,PMT/Tween 20,and PMT/Tween 60 systems.For the PMT/Tween 40,PMT/Tween 80,PMT/CPC,and PMT/CPB systems the cmc values are close to the cmc* values.This indicates that PMT forms mixed micelles with these surfactants by attractive interactions.The surface excess(Γmax) decreases in the presence of surfactants.The rigid structure of the drug makes adsorption easier and the contribution of the surfactant at the interface decreases.The interaction parameters βm(for the mixed micelles) and βσ(for the mixed monolayer) are negative indicating attraction among the mixed components.

Cloud Point Extraction of Serum Albumin and Its Spectrophotometric Determination in Serum Samples

Abstract

A new method based on the cloud point extraction (CPE) separation and ultraviolet spectrometry determination was proposed for the determination of albumin. When the system temperature is higher than the cloud point extraction temperature (CPT) of the mixed surfactant of p‐octyl polyethyleneglycolphenyether (Triton X‐100) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), serum albumin could be extracted into surfactant‐rich phase. The main factors affecting the cloud point extraction were investigated systematically. Under the optimized conditions, the determination limit for serum albumin as low as 0.18 µg/mL was obtained by preconcentrating a 10 mL sample solution, and the relative standard deviation (n=10, c=40.0 µg/mL) was 3.77%. The proposed method was applied to the determination of albumin in serum samples. The results obtained by this method were in good agreement with coomassie brilliant blue (CBB).     

Influence of organic additives on the clouding phenomena of promethazine hydrochloride solutions

This paper reports the influence of organic additives (alcohols, amino acids, sugars) on the micellization and cloud point (CP) of a phenothiazine drug, promethazine hydrochloride (PMT). The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the drug, determined by surface tension measurements in the presence of a representative of each additive class (i.e., butanol, leucine, arabinose), are used to evaluate the maximum surface excess concentration (Γ _max) and the minimum area per surfactant molecule (A _min) at the air/water interface. Γ _max increases and CMC/A _min decreases with increasing concentration of the additives, which indicate mixed micelle formation. The intermicellar interaction coefficients in the mixed micelles (β ^m and β ^σ are also calculated, and their negative values imply attractive interactions. Effect of pH revealed CP decrease with increasing pH due to deprotonation of PMT molecules. Effect of amino acids depended upon their nature and polarity, whereas sugars caused a CP decreasing effect. Aliphatic alcohols as well as cycloalkanols and diols decreased the CP. In the presence of arabinose, increase in drug concentration resulted in the CP increase, while increase in pH showed an opposite trend. Results are interpreted on the basis of mixed micelle formation, hydrophobic interactions, and change in solvent structure.

Viscosity-Temperature Behavior of Hydroxypropyl Cellulose Solution in Presence of an Electrolyte or a Surfactant: A Convenient Method to Determine the Cloud Point of Polymer Solutions

The viscosity of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) solution with or without an additive has been measured continuously as a function of temperature with the help of a vibro-viscometer. The viscosity of the polymer solution showed a gradual decrease initially with increase in temperature until a particular point beyond which there was a sharp decrease in the viscosity, which coincided with the clouding of the solution. The cloud point temperature (CP) of the polymer solution was determined from the first derivative plot of viscosity vs. temperature. Effect of addition of an electrolyte or a surfactant on the CP of HPC solution has also been studied. While a decrease in CP of HPC solution in presence of fluoride, chloride, or bromide ions was observed, presence of iodide or thiocyanide ions led to an increase in the CP. However, presence of an ionic surfactant initially lowered the CP but beyond a particular surfactant concentration a sharp increase in cloud point was observed due to interaction of the surfactant with the polymer. The results suggest that surfactants with longer hydrophobic tail or more hydrophobic groups have more affinity for HPC.     

Speciation Determination of Chromium(VI) and Chromium(III) in Soil Samples after Cloud Point Extraction

Abstract

To measure the different activity of chromium(VI) and chromium(III) in soil samples, chromium(VI) and total chromium (CrVI + CrIII) was extracted by KCl extracting agent and alkali fusion, respectively. Cloud point extraction (CPE) for speciation determination of chromium with double-slotted quartz tube atom trap–flame atomic absorption spectrometry (STAT-FAAS) was developed. Preconcentration of chromium(VI) and total chromium in different pH solutions was achieved by CPE, with ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APDC) as the chelating agent and Triton X-114 as the cloud point extractant. The conditions of CPE and determination were studied. Under the optimal conditions, the enrichment factor was 50 for chromium from the initial 100-mL sample solution to the final 2-mL determined solution. Compared to the FAAS method, the sensitivity was improved seven-fold for chromium by the STAT-FAAS method. The limit of detection was 0.082 µg/L for chromium.
