Rapid and sensitive ultra‐high‐pressure liquid chromatography method for quantification of antichagasic benznidazole in plasma: application in a preclinical pharmacokinetic study

Benznidazole (BNZ) and nifurtimox are the only drugs available for treating Chagas disease. In this work, we validated a bioanalytical method for the quantification of BNZ in plasma aimed at improving sensitivity and time of analysis compared with the assays already published. Furthermore, we demonstrated the application of the method in a preclinical pharmacokinetic study after administration of a single oral dose of BNZ in Wistar rats. A Waters® Acquity UHPLC system equipped with a UV–vis detector was employed. The method was established using an Acquity® UHPLC HSS SB C₁₈ protected by an Acquity® UHPLC HSS SB C₁₈ VanGuard guard column and detection at 324 nm_. The mobile phase consisted of ultrapure water–acetonitrile (65:35), and elution was isocratic. The mobile phase flow rate was 0.55 mL/min, the volume of injection was 1 μL, and the run time was just 2 min. The samples were kept at 25°C until injection and the column at 45°C for the chromatographic separation. The sample preparation was performed by a rapid protein precipitation with acetonitrile. The linear concentration range was 0.15–20 µg/mL. The pharmacokinetic parameters of BNZ in rats were determined and the method was considered sensitive, fast and suitable for application in pharmacokinetic studies.

Restricted Modules and Conjectures for Modules of Constant Jordan Type

We introduce the class of restricted k[A]-modules and p ^t -Jordan types for a finite abelian p-group A of exponent at least p ^t and a field k of characteristic p. For these modules, we generalize several theorems by Benson, verify a generalization of conjectures stated by Suslin and Rickard giving constraints on Jordan types for modules of constant Jordan type when t is 1. We state conjectures giving constraints on p ^t -Jordan types and show that many p ^t -Jordan types are realizable.
