Carbon dioxide emulsion assisted loading of polymer microspheres toward sustained release materials

An organic solvent-free method for encapsulating progesterone at high loadings within micron-sized inert latex polymer beads is reported. This approach makes use of a polymeric surfactant to emulsify carbon dioxide into an aqueous latex suspension. In this way, preformed approximately 4 microm polystyrene (PS) microparticles surface-grafted with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) were plasticized and swollen followed by rapid partitioning of progesterone into the polymer matrix. The as-prepared polystyrene beads incorporated over 10% progesterone by weight while maintaining their initial size and morphological uniformity. Dissolution experiments were also carried out to obtain the release profile of progesterone entrapped within the PVP/PS particles.

Theoretical analysis of singlet and triplet excited states of nickel porphyrins

Local density and generalized gradient approximation time-dependent density functional methods have been used for calculation of the singlet and triplet excited states of nickel-porphine, Ni-tetraphenyloporphine, and Ni-octaethyloporphyrine. Special attention is paid to metal-ligand transitions and d-d transitions. It is shown that the lowest exited singlet states of the three compounds can be described as a transfer of an electron from the porphine ring to the d(x2-y2) orbital of the nickel atom. On the other hand, the lowest excited triplet state arises from promotion of an electron between two nickel d orbitals, an occupied d(z2) and an empty d(x2-y2). It is proposed that a rapid quenching of the excited singlet states is due to an ultrafast intersystem crossing between 1Eg)and 3Eg or 3B1g states.

Rapid and simple method for the determination of alpha 1-acid glycoprotein in serum by column liquid chromatography.

A rapid and simple method for the determination of alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) in serum was developed by using an anion-exchange column for clean-up of serum and a hydroxyapatite column for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A good correlation was observed between this HPLC method and the conventional radial immunodiffusion method. The method may also be used to determine the AAG concentration in the serum of experimental animals.     

Two-color resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization and zero-kinetic-energy photoelectron spectroscopy of jet-cooled indan

We report studies of supersonically cooled indan using two-color resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization and two-color zero-kinetic-energy photoelectron spectroscopy. With the aid of ab initio and density-functional calculations, vibrational modes of the first electronically excited state of the neutral species and those of the cation have been assigned, and the adiabatic ionization energy has been determined to be 68458 +/- 5 cm(-1). Similar to the ground state and the first electronically excited state of the neutral molecule, the ground state of the cation is also proven to be nonplanar, with an estimated barrier of 213 cm(-1) and a puckering angle of 15.0 degrees. These conclusions will be discussed in comparison with a previous study of an indan derivative 1,3-benzodioxole.

Selective spectrophotometric determination of thorium(IV) with 2-(5-Bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol

A spectrophotometric study of the Th(IV) complex of a new reagent 2-(5-Bromo-2- pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (5-Br-PADAP) is presented. A reddish brown complex is formed at pH 4.86, and shows maximal absorbance at 580 nm with molar absorptivity of 1.66 × 10⁵ mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹ liter. Beer's law is obeyed over the range 0.0 to 15 μg of thorium. Rare earths ions like La³⁺, Ce³⁺, and Y³⁺ do not interfere because they form complexes with 5-Br-PADAP at higher pH's (>9.94) (1). A new method for determining trace amounts of thorium is proposed, which possesses the advantages of high sensitivity and selectivity.
