A quantitative assay of neutrophil degranulation was developed using flow cytometry. Dog neutrophils were purified to greater than 95% purity and viability by isopyknic density centrifugation in an isosmotic medium. These cells concentrated the fluorochrome acridine orange (AO) in their azurophilic granules, but not in specific granules. Also contained in the azurophilic granules are elastase, myeloperoxidase, and approximately 50% of the lysozyme activity. The fluorochrome was released concomitantly with elastase activity, as shown by flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy, and biochemical assay in response to the ionophore A23187. By flow cytometry, unstimulated cells are distributed in a single broad peak of high fluorescence intensity. With increasing concentrations of A23187 (0.48-4.80 microM), a greater proportion of the cells shifted to a single peak of low fluorescence intensity. Few cells with intermediate fluorescence were observed. These analyses revealed that the neutrophils degranulated in a quantal, all-or-none response.

Abstract Quinone-based fluorophores and enhanced native fluorescence techniques were applied for a fast quantitative analysis of gemifloxacin mesylate (GEM) and linezolid (LIN) in pharmaceutical formulations. For this purpose, three sensitive, accurate and precise spectrofluorimetric methods were developed. GEM, as an n-electron donor, reacts with 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (method A) and 2,5-dichloro-3,6-dihydroxy-p-benzoquinone (method B) as п-electron acceptors, forming charge transfer complexes that exhibit high fluorescence intensity at 441 and 390 nm upon excitation at 260 and 339 nm, respectively. Method C depends on measurement of enhanced native fluorescence of LIN in phosphate buffer (pH 5) at 380 nm upon excitation at 260 nm. Experimental factors affecting fluorescence intensity were optimized. Linearity was obtained over concentration ranges 50-500, 10-60 and 20-400 ng mL-1 for methods A, B and C, respectively. The developed methods were validated and successfully applied for determination of the cited drugs in tablets.
