Quantitative determination of CGS 18102A, a new anxiolytic, in human plasma using capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.

CGS 18102A is a novel hexahydrobenzopyranopyridine that has a mixed pharmacological profile of 5-HT-1A agonist and 5-HT-2 antagonist properties. Based upon these mechanisms, the compound is predicted to have anxiolytic efficacy with possible efficacy in depression. Preclinical studies in the rat have shown the drug to be well absorbed and extensively metabolized. Because of the anticipated low plasma levels in humans a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analytical method has been developed and validated to determine plasma concentrations of CGS 18102A in early clinical studies. The method utilizes CGS 18416A as the internal standard. Samples (1 mL) were extracted with pentane:ethyl acetate (75:25, v:v). Extracts were then concentrated and analysed directly by GC/MS. Separation was accomplished on a methylsilicone capillary column (30 m x 0.32 mm i.d.). GC/MS was carried out under positive ion ammonia CI conditions, with selected ion monitoring of the [M + H]+ ions (m/z = 262 and 248) for CGS 18102A and CGS 18416A, respectively. The method was successively applied to the analysis of clinical samples from an ascending multidose safety and tolerability study conducted in six normal healthy male volunteers.

A Note on Maximum Shear

The problem of the determination at any point P in a body of that pair of infinitesimal material line elements which suffers the maximum shear in a deformation has been solved [1]. Here that problem is revisited and a short proof, of geometrical type, of the result is presented. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

An efficient furan synthesis using heterogeneous catalysis

A wide variety of 3-alkyne-1,2-diols have been found to undergo exceptionally clean 5-endo-dig cyclisations followed by dehydration at ambient temperature to give the corresponding furans in essentially quantitative yields when exposed to 10 mol % of 10% w/w silver(I) nitrate absorbed on silica gel.     

Spin dynamics in conducting polymers studied by μSR

We report studies of spin dynamics in the conducting polymers polyaniline and polypyrrole using both μ⁺SR and μ^-SR techniques. These measurements reveal characteristic field dependences and cutoff frequencies for the muon spin relaxation which can be related to the spin diffusion process. Clear evidence is seen for increased spin localisation at low temperatures where a crossover occurs from two or three dimensional spin diffusion to a one dimensional diffusion regime. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Inhomogeneous electromagnetic plane waves in crystals

Summary The propagation of inhomogeneous, time harmonic, elliptically polarised, electromagnetic plane waves in non-absorbing, magnetically isotropic, but electrically anisotropic, crystals is considered. The electric displacement and the magnetic induction are assumed to have the forms D exp l(S · x–t) and B exp l(S · x–t), respectively, at the place x and time t, where D, S, B are Gibbs bivectors (complex vectors) and is real. The implications of Maxwell's equations for the various field quantities are interpreted simply and directly through the use of bivectors and their associated ellipses.The propagation of circularly polarised waves is considered in detail. For such waves the electric displacement bivector is isotropic: D · D = 0. In order that such waves may propagate it is found that either (i) D is parallel to the slowness bivector S, so that both D and S are isotropic and coplanar, or (ii) D is parallel to the magnetic induction bivector B, so that both D and B are isotropic and coplanar. It is shown that for type (ii) the secular equation must have a double root for the slowness and conversely if the secular equation has a double root then there exists an isotropic electric displacement right eigenbivector of the optical tensor.Both types of waves are possible in a biaxial crystal. They complement each other in the following way. For type (i) all but two great circles on the unit sphere are possible circles of polarisation for circularly polarised waves with D and S parallel. Each of the exceptional great circles is such that an optic axis is normal to the plane of the circle. These two exceptional circles are the only possible circles of polarisation for circularly polarised waves of type (ii) when D and B are parallel.The situation for uniaxial crystals is similar—the only essential difference being that for uniaxial crystals there is only one exceptional circle since there is only one optic axis.For isotropic crystals the situation is quite different. Circularly polarised waves of type (i) are not possible. All great circles on the unit sphere are possible circles of polarisation for circularly polarised waves of type (ii) with D and B parallel.     

Connexions between the moduli for anistropic elastic materials

Summary For homogeneous isotropic elastic materials there are simple interrelations connecting Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, the rigidity modulus and the modulus of compression. However for anisotropic materials the situation is quite different. Young's modulus is a function of direction and Poisson's ratio and the rigidity modulus are functions of pairs of orthogonal directions. Here some simple universal connexions between the moduli for various directions are simply derived for general anisotropic materials. No particular symmetry is assumed in the material.     

A study of two-dimensional dispersion in unconsolidated porous media

An experimental and numerical investigation into the magnitude of longitudinal and transverse dispersion in a two-dimensional flow field over a particle Peclet number range of 50–8500 is reported. Numerical modelling using a Galerkin finite element method is used to test various models, notably those of Fried and combarnous and Koch and Brady. Dispersion at low Peclet numbers (< 200) is found to be described adequately by either model, which at large Peclet, the degree of dispersion is significantly underestimated. An improved dispersion model for Peclet numbers greater than 200 is proposed. The transverse dispersion term and the choice of inlet boundary condition are found to have a negligible effect on the shape of the breakthrough curve.Nomenclature A (z) Polynomial in the z plane - B (z) Polynomial in the z plane - C Concentration - C _f Feed concentration - C _o Concentration at the entrance - D Dispersion tensor - D _f Molecular diffusion coefficient - D ₁ Longitudinal dispersion coefficient - D _p Particle diameter - D _t Transverse dispersion coefficient - k Permeability/viscosity - k Dimensionless permiability in the Koch and Brady model - P Pressure - Pe _k Modified Peclet number, Pe _p k - Pe _p Particle Peclet number vD _p /D _f - v Velocity - z Axial coordinate or complex variable Greek letters Solution domain - Boundary - Porosity
