Life Threatening

Background: Malaria is one of the life threatening diseases which is caused by Plasmodium sp. of protozoa and uses Anopheles mosquitos as vector. Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum are common form of malaria parasite. Artemisinin is reported for its antimalarial activities and Artemether which is a methyl ether derivative of Artemisinin, has been found effective against P. falciparum. Methods: In the present study, bioconversion of Artemisinin into Artemether was carried out experimentally and the statistical tools like experimental factorial design and Response Surface Methodology were used to find optimal conditions (concentration of Artemisinin, age of inoculum, temperature & pH) using Cunninghamella echinulata var. elegans. Experimental conditions for maximum product recovery from culture broth were also optimized using various polar and non-polar solvents for extraction. Artemether purity was analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC. Experimental data was fitted in a quadratic model and effect of various parameters was analyzed. Results: It was found that bioconversion of Artemisinin into Artemether is growth associated process. It was observed that molasses used as carbon source supported production of Artemether to 3.4g/L. The biomass and oxygen are key element affecting of bioconversion of Artemisinin into Artemether such as higher dissolved oxygen reduced the Artemether bioconversion. The highest bioconversion of Artemisinin into Artemether was obtained at temperature 25.5oC, 5g/L concentration of Artemisinin, at age of inoculum of 44.5 h and at pH 6.0. Model suggested the highest bioconversion of Artemisinin into Artemether was 54% at shake flask level which was near about experimental finding. An optimal condition for bioconversion was also analyzed and 64% bioconversion was obtained in 5L bioreactor. Conclusion: The outcomes of the study provided optimum conditions for bioconversion of Artemisinin into Artemether.

Pleural mesothelioma is a lung diffuse tumor, whose complete resection is unlikely. Consequently, metastases reappear where the primary tumor was removed. This paper illustrates the orphan medicine designation procedure of an intracavitary cisplatin film and related pharmaceutical development aspects requested by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in its Scientific Advice. Since cisplatin pharmacokinetics from the implanted film in sheep resulted substantially modified compared to intravenous administration, the formation of a cisplatin/hyaluronan complex had been hypothesized. Here, the interaction between sodium hyaluronate (NaHA) and cisplatin (CisPt) was demonstrated. Size exclusion chromatography qualitatively evidenced the complex in the film-forming mixture, only showing the NaHA peak. Atomic absorption spectroscopy of the corresponding fraction revealed platinum, confirming the interaction. Reverse phase HPLC quantified about 5% free cisplatin in the film-forming mixture, indirectly meaning that 95% was complexed. Finally, a study of CisPt release from the film assessed how CisPt/NaHA complex affected drug availability. In water, a medium without chloride ions, there was no release and the film remained intact for 48 h and longer, whereas the placebo film dissolved in 15 min. In 0.9% NaCl medium, the film became more soluble, dissolving within 3–4 h. However, cisplatin release was still controlled by the existing complex in solution until chloride ions displaced it. While the film modified its dissolution with aging, CisPt release remained unaffected (90% released in 48 h).

Abstract Explants of equine full-term placenta have been shown to synthesize 19-norandrogens from labelled androgens. Steroid metabolites were purified by silica-gel column chromatography then analysed and quantified by C18-reverse-phase HPLC coupled to a radioactive flow detector. 19-Norandrostenedione was subsequently recrystallized to constant specific activity, providing unequivocal evidence of its synthesis by the equine placenta. 19-Norandrostenedione synthesis appeared to be localized in the microsomal fraction. Regardless of the substrate used, formation of 19-norandrogens was far weaker than that of oestrogens; moreover, the yield of 17-oxosteroids produced was much greater than that of 17β-hydroxysteroids, suggesting the presence of a dehydrogenase with predominant oxidative activity. Sulphoconjugated steroids formed were less than 0·5% of total steroids. Although 19-nortestosterone could not be generated by equine purified aromatase incubated with labelled testosterone, the synthesis of 19-norandrogens and oestrogens by equine placental explants was blocked by two specific aromatase inhibitors, 4-hydroxyandrostenedione and fadrozole. Our results provide evidence for a placental origin of at least a part of the 19-norandrogens previously identified in the blood of the pregnant mare. Furthermore, it is suggested that 19-norandrogen biosynthesis would involve the enzymatic metabolism of 19-oxygenated androgens formed by equine aromatase.

A reverse phase HPLC method is developed for the determination of Raloxifene in pharmaceutical dosage forms. Chromatography was carried out on an inertsil C18 column using a mixture of acetonitrile and phosphate buffer (30:70 v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. Detection was carried out at 290 nm .The retention time of the drug was 10.609 min. The method produced linear responses in the concentration range of 0.5-200 µg/mL of Raloxifene. The method was found to be applicable for determination of the drug in tablets.

Abstract Objectives In the clinical setting, the analysis and quantification of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) poses several challenges including analyte instability and poor retention by reverse phase HPLC systems. In this article we describe a rapid hydrophilic interaction chromatography ultraviolet method for the measurement of total vitamin C in plasma which overcomes these issues. Methods Ascorbic acid and the internal standard were separated under isocratic conditions using a Waters BEH-Amide column and a mobile phase containing 0.005 M potassium phosphate in 80% acetonitrile. Results The proposed method was validated and showed good precision (coefficient of variation <5%), accuracy (>99%), and analyte stability after extraction (>24 h). Conclusions The simple sample preparation allows full automation and rapid analytical run times of the assay and is therefore suitable for a high-throughput clinical chromatography laboratory.
