A Comparative Study of Naproxen – Beta Cyclodextrin Complexes Prepared by Conventional Methods and Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Naproxen is a poorly soluble anti-inflammatorydrug, the solubility of which canbe enhanced by complexation withbeta-cyclodextrin. Besides that, the inclusioncomplex reduces the incidence of gastrointestinal side effects of the drug. The aim of this work was to compare the physicochemical characteristics of the solid complexes prepared by traditional methods (kneading, freeze-drying and spray-drying) and using a supercritical fluid technology. The unusual solvent properties of carbon dioxide above their critical temperature and pressure were exploited in order to prepare inclusion compounds. Complexes prepared using supercritical fluid technology showed similar properties to those of freeze-drying andspray-drying complexes as proved by DSC, FT-IRand UV.     

Structure-Activity Relationship of Insecticidal Steroids. V. 3β-Benzoyloxystigmastan-6-ones

The toxicity of steroid benzoates 4-10 for Colorado beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say.) larvae was studied by a contact-intestinal method. The most active growth and development regulator for this insect is 3-benzoyloxy-5-hydroxy-⁷-6-ketosteroid 9a.     

Structure and Photoelectric Characteristics of Functional Polymers and of Compositions Based on Them

The electronic processes in disordered organic solids were analyzed, classified, and summarized. They include the photogeneration of charge pairs, electron transport, geminal and bimolecular recombination, and the capture of charge carriers in local electronic states. General criteria were formulated for the targeted search for and the creation of new prospective polymers and their compositions with organic pigments and related compounds having specific photoelectric characteristics for electrographic and holographic media, photoelectric converters, and electroluminescent and photorefractive devices.

稀土元素在LD30铝合金真空钎焊中的作用

研究了添加La和Ce的Al-Si基钎料真空钎焊LD30铝合金接头的力学性能，微观组织形貌和EDS，并与未添加稀土元素的Al-Si基钎料真空钎焊接头进行对比。结果表明，添加稀土元素的LD30铝合金真空钎焊接头抗拉强度为288MPa，达母材抗拉强度的97．6％，明显高于未添加稀土的LD30合金真空钎焊接头。其机制在于La,Ce能够明显提高Al-Si基钎料与LD30铝合金的润湿性能，改善LD30铝合金真空钎焊接头焊缝及其基体中杂质元素的分布，促进钎料和母材中各元素的均匀扩散，从而提高真空钎焊接头的力学性能。     

Comparison of three methods for fractionation and enrichment of low molecular weight proteins for SELDI-TOF-MS differential analysis

In most diseases, the clinical need for serum/plasma markers has never been so crucial, not only for diagnosis, but also for the selection of the most efficient therapies, as well as exclusion of ineffective or toxic treatment. Due to the high sample complexity, prefractionation is essential for exploring the deep proteome and finding specific markers.In this study, three different sample preparation methods (i.e., highly abundant protein precipitation, restricted access materials (RAM) combined with IMAC chromatography and peptide ligand affinity beads) were investigated in order to select the best fractionation step for further differential proteomic experiments focusing on the LMW proteome (MW inferior to 40,000 Da). Indeed, the aim was not to cover the entire plasma/serum proteome, but to enrich potentially interesting tissue leakage proteins. These three methods were evaluated on their reproducibility, on the SELDI-TOF-MS peptide/protein peaks generated after fractionation and on the information supplied.The studied methods appeared to give complementary information and presented good reproducibility (below 20%). Peptide ligand affinity beads were found to provide efficient depletion of HMW proteins and peak enrichment in protein/peptide profiles.     

Zur Synthese von fungizid wirksamen Isocamphanderivaten: Synthesen in der Isocamphanreihe, 34. Mitt.

Summary Some esters of isocamphenilanic acid (4) have been prepared and tested for their fungicidal and insecticidal activity. Esters of various acids with isocamphanyl ethylalcohol (5) have also been synthesized and included in the fungicidal/acaricidal/insecticidal screening programme. All esters bear a geminal dimethyl group at C-3 of the bicyclus which is important because of its shielding effect.

     

Spectrophotometric determination of Fe(II) in milligram solid samples

The analytical procedure of determination of Fe(II) in the presence of Fe(III) in milligram samples is proposed. A solid sample is dissolved in hydrochloric acid in argon atmosphere. Subsequently, the pH-value of the solution is fixed and Fe(III) complexed by phosphoric buffer. At the next step Fe(II) is oxidized by -molybdosilicic acid. Finally, the intensity of colouring caused by the reduced form of the acid is measured at the wavelength 770 nm. The proper treatment of the sample during oxidation, and immediately before, is decisive for the accuracy of the analysis. The method was verified by means of the analysis of synthetic magnetite. The theoretical content of Fe(II) was 24.12%, the determined one was 24.02 ± 0.10%. The method was applied to the determination of the homogeneity of an iron catalyst for ammonia synthesis.     

稀土(Ⅲ)-冠醚配位反应的热力学性质

自1967年C.J.Pedersen首次合成冠醚并发现其配位特性以来,稀土冠醚配合物的研究工作发展迅速,特别是对固体配合物的合成及其性质的表征做了大量工作,但对其在溶液中热力学性质的研究却不多见,而且所用方法仅为电位法、NMR法、电导法等,用量热滴定法的报道很少。近来,国外已有人做了一些工作,国内也开始了这方面的研究,但研究     

ESR study of the reaction of decacarbonyidimanganese with thallium(i) 3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosendquinolate in solutions

The reaction of decacarbonyldimanganese Mu₂(CO)₁₀ (1) With thallium(t) 3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinolate (2) in solution was studied by ESR spectroscopy. Irradiation of solutions containing1 and2 in organic solvents with visible light at 220–280 K leads totrinuclear MnTlMn complex (3). An analysis of hyperfine structure parameters indicates that3 is a semiquinone complex of thallium. A possible mechanism of the formation of complex3 and its molecular structure was discussed.Translated fromIzveshya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 95–98, January, 1996.
