Determination of medroxyprogesterone acetate residues by CE immunoassay with chemiluminescence detection

A rapid and simple method is developed for the determination of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) by CE immunoassay with chemiluminescence (CL). This method is based on the competitive reactions between horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled MPA (MPA-HRP) and free MPA with anti-MPA antiserum. The influencing factors on the electrophoresis and CL detection were studied completely and the optimal conditions of separation and determination were obtained. The linear range was 2.0-50 nmol/L and the LOD for MPA was 0.9 nmol/L. The present method was applied to the analysis of pork tissues.

Endoglucanase Degradation and Enzyme-Aided Characterization of Cellulose Acetates

Endoglucanases were used as a selective tool to determine the substituent distribution along the chains of partially substituted cellulose acetates. Unsubstituted segments are intensively fragmented while highly substituted segments are only slightly degraded or not affected at all. Two different procedures were developed to perform a preparative separation of the fragments by size exclusion chromatography. One system is based on a direct separation of the fragmentation products using pyridine : water (9 : 1) as an eluent. The isolated fragments can be analysed regarding to their DS values by ATR/FTIR spectroscopy or by hydrolysis and HPLC. The second system is based on deutero-acetylation of endoglucanase fragmented samples. The complete acetylation of all OH groups enables a chromatographic separation in chloroform. Afterwards the isolated fragments can be analysed regarding to their partial DS values by ¹H-NMR spectroscopy.     

A Facile Approach for Synthesis of Benzofuro[2,3‐c]pyridines via Intramolecular Cascade Annulations

A facile synthesis of benzofuro[2,3‐c]pyridines has been achieved under mild conditions by using ammonium acetate as the nitrogen source through intramolecular cascade annulation. This reaction could efficiently construct pyridine ring and furan ring in one step. Moreover, the key annulation step was demonstrated through dihydrobenzofuran intermediates.     

Effect of Membrane Preparation Methods on the Release of Theophylline through CA Membranes at In-Vitro Conditions

In this study the effect of the membrane preparation methods on the release of theophylline through cellulose acetate (CA) membranes was studied at in vitro conditions. CA/acetone binary and CA/acetone/water ternary systems were used as casting solutions and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was used as the pore forming, plasticizing agent in the study. Membranes were characterized by FTIR, SEM, and DSC analysis. It was determined that pH, temperature and drug concentration affected the release of theophylline. A decrease in pH, increase in temperature and drug concentration increased the permeated amount of theophylline through the membranes. In addition, receiver solution circulation at a capillary blood rate increased the permeation of theophylline. As a result of the study, it was concluded that the release of theophylline could be controlled for a prolonged period of time and modified CA membranes prepared in the study could be as an advisable membrane material for potential release of theophylline at transdermal conditions.

Application of an adiabatic precision calorimeter in the field of organic reactions

Adiabatic calorimetry is a suitable method for investigations of reactions because the generated heat remains completely in the reactor. For the investigation of organic reactions, the adiabatic precision calorimeter ACTRON 5 is used. The alcoholyses of phenyl isocyanate and 1,2-butyleneoxide were investigated. The temperature-time course was estimated by means of the nonlinear program TA-kin. Inclusion of the concentration-time course in the estimation procedure led to an increase in the reliability of the parameters. Probes were taken during isoperibolic measurements and were analysed by means of HPLC.
