Spray Freeze-drying – The Process of Choice for Low Water Soluble Drugs?

Most of the novel highly potent drugs, developed on the basis of modern molecular medicine, taking into account cell surface recognition techniques, show poor water solubility. A chemical modification of the drug substance enhancing the solubility often decreases the pharmacological activity. Thus, as an alternative an increase of the solubility can be obtained by the reduction of the size of the drug particles. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to obtain micro or nanosized drug particles by classical or more advanced crystallization using supercritical gases or by milling techniques. In addition, nanosized particles are often not physically stable and need to be stabilized in an appropriate matrix. Thus, it may be of interest to manufacture directly nanosized drug particles stabilized in an inert hydrophilic matrix, i.e. nanostructured and nanocomposite systems. Solid solutions and solid dispersions represent nanostructured and nanocomposite systems. In this context, the use of the vacuum-fluidized-bed technique for the spray-drying of a low water soluble drug cosolubilized with a hydrophilic excipient in a polar organic solvent is discussed. In order to avoid the use of organic solvents, a special spray-freeze-drying technique working at atmospheric pressure is presented. This process is very suitable for temperature and otherwise sensitive drugs such as pharmaproteins.

Anisotropic charge transport in flavonoids as organic semiconductors

A quantum mechanical approach has been used to investigate on the potential for using two naturally occurring flavonoids: quercetin and luteolin as candidates for organic semiconductor. Selection of flavonoids enables to evaluate the effects of hydroxyl group structural features. The relationship between molecular packing and charge transport in flavonoids is presented. The calculated results indicate that quercetin should be an ideal candidate as high-performance p-type organic semiconductor material, while luteolin is predicted as n-type organic semiconductor material. The predicted maximum electron mobility value of quercetin is 0.075 cm² V^?1 s^?1, which appears at the orientation angle near 91°/271° of conducting channel on the reference planes b–c. Theoretical investigation of natural semiconductors is helpful for designing higher performance electronic materials used in biochemical and industrial field to replace expensive and rare organic materials.

垃圾填埋渗滤液溶解性有机物组分的光谱学特性研究

选取3个不同填埋年限的渗滤液样品,以Leenheer的分组方法为基础,采用XAD-8树脂将渗滤液中的溶解性有机物(DOM)按极性和电荷特性分为结构较为均一的不同组分,用荧光光谱和紫外光谱对其中3个组分进行分析。荧光光谱分析表明,填埋初期,疏水酸性组分(HOA)、疏水中性组分(HON)和亲水性组分(HIM)均以类蛋白物质为主,随着填埋年限增加,其分子复杂化程度增强;其中HOA组分分子量最大、复杂程度最高,同时芳烃化合物的含量也最高,HON居中,HIM组分最小。紫外光谱分析表明,HOA和HON组分芳香环上的取代基均以羰基、羧基、羟基为主;而HIM组分则以脂肪链为主,同时芳香烃化合物含量较低。研究结果表明,随着填埋年限的增加,三种组分的复杂化程度均呈上升趋势。     

Luminescence properties of anodic aluminum oxide films with organic luminophores embedded into pores

Luminescence properties of porous anodic aluminum oxide films formed in a 0.6 M solution of citric acid and luminescence of paraterphenyl, perylene, coumarin 7, and rhodamine 6G dyes adsorbed by the films are investigated. The nature of emitting centers in anodic aluminum oxide is revealed. Intense photoluminescence of all tested dyes embedded into pores of anodic aluminum oxide has been found. A redshift of fluorescence spectra of dyes adsorbed by the matrix and emergence of an additional longwave band have been detected. Data obtained can be used in developing new thin-film luminescent coatings for future applications in optoelectronics and molecular electronics.

Dipolar cycloadditions in solid-phase organic synthesis (SPOS)

Summary We present a concise review of polymer-supported 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Nitrile oxide and azomethine ylides constitute the two types of 1,3-dipoles which have been used in conjunction with solid-phase organic synthesis. These cycloaddition reactions on solid phase are generally of equal or greater efficiency than the analogous solution-phase reactions.
