RESUMEN

The present study compared the contents of inorganic elements in the pulp of purple, red, and yellow Prunus cerasifera with its cultivars. A method was established for the analysis of 17 kinds of trace elements (K, Ca, Mg, Na, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Be, Li, Se, Sr, Cr, Pb, Cd, As and Hg) in the flesh of Prunus cerasifera by microwave digestion-ICP-MS. The detection method is simple and quick, yet shoes high precision and high sensitivity. The recovery rate of 17 elements ranged, from 93.5% to 110.4%. The analysis results showed that the contents of 17 elements in the flesh of purple, red, and yellow Prunus cerasifera and its cultivars are similar, containing extremely rich K elements (as high as 1 per thousand) and higher contents of Ca, Mg, Na, Fe and Mn. The contents of Cu, Zn, Li, Se, Sr and Cr are also present. The contents of Pb, Cd, As, Hg and other harmful element are either very low or not detectable. The experimental results for the study of trace elements in pulp of Prunus cerasifera and its cultivars provide empirical data for. future research in this area.

RESUMEN

A method for on-line monitoring the dissolution of Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide tablets assisted by mathematical separation model of linear equations was established. UV spectrums of valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide were overlapping completely at the maximum absorption wavelength respectively. According to the Beer-Lambert principle of absorbance additivity, the absorptivity of Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide was determined at the maximum absorption wavelength, and the dissolubility of Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide tablets was detected by fiber-optic dissolution test (FODT) assisted by the mathematical separation model of linear equations and compared with the HPLC method. Results show that two ingredients were real-time determined simultaneously in given medium. There was no significant difference for FODT compared with HPLC (p > 0.05). Due to the dissolution behavior consistency, the preparation process of different batches was stable and with good uniformity. The dissolution curves of valsartan were faster and higher than hydrochlorothiazide. The dissolutions at 30 min of Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide were concordant with US Pharmacopoeia. It was concluded that fiber-optic dissolution test system assisted by the mathematical separation model of linear equations that can detect the dissolubility of Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide simultaneously, and get dissolution profiles and overall data, which can directly reflect the dissolution speed at each time. It can provide the basis for establishing standards of the drug. Compared to HPLC method with one-point data, there are obvious advantages to evaluate and analyze quality of sampling drug by FODT.

RESUMEN

The polysaccharide extract (PE) of Uyghur medicinal preparation Alhagi-honey was prepared by water extraction and alcohol precipitation method. The purified polysaccharide AP1-1 was obtained from PE by macroporous adsorption resin chromatography, DEAE cellulose chromatography, and Sephadex gel chromatography; the homogeneity and the molecular weight of AP1-1 were determined by gel filtration; and the acid hydrolysis, periodate oxidation, Smith degradation, and NMR analysis were used to analyze the chemical structure of AP1-1. The result showed that AP1-1 was a homogeneous polysaccharide, whose relative molecular weight was 9.97 × 10(4). Through high-performance capillary electrophoresis analysis, we found that its molecular structure was composed of mannose, glucose, galactose, and galacturonic acid with a molar ratio of about 1.1:1.9:3.9:2.1. The main chain of AP1-1 was mainly made up of → 4)ß-d-GalpA-(1 → 4)ß-d-GalpA-(1 → 4)-ß-d-Galp-(1 → 4)-ß-d-Galp-(1 → 6)α-d-Glcp-(1 → 4)α-d-Glcp(1 → , while the side chain is composed of → 6)-α-d-Glcp and 2-CH3-α-d-Man.

RESUMEN

This paper reported room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) behaviors of meso-tetra-(4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin palladium (Pd-TSPP) and meso-tetra-(4-trimethylaminophenyl) porphyrin palladium (Pd-TAPP) in bovine serum albumin (BSA) medium. It was found that Pd-TSPP self-aggregated with its increasing concentration and hetero-aggregated with Pd-TAPP when they were mixed together. The self-aggregation of Pd-TSPP resulted in the remarkably splitting of excitation spectra because of the strongly excitonic coupling and phosphorescence quenching excited by Soret band, while Q band always kept the increase in intensity. The hetero-aggregation was out of the ground-state interaction stronger than the former one owing to its electrostatic-interaction nature. It was also indicated that inorganic salts like KCl would be an aid to hetero-aggregation. The equilibrium constants of both kinds of aggregation were estimated, namely, K(hom)=1.9 x 10(5) l/mol (homo-aggregation), and K(het)=1.06 x 10(7) l/mol (hetero-aggregation).

RESUMEN

Oxygen is the most effective dynamic quencher in liquid room temperature phosphorimetry (LRTP). Using oxygen scavenger to achieve significant or more sensitive RTP signals may bring about kinds of trouble in many cases and is apparently not very convenient in procedures. To date a few examples on LRTP without deoxygenation have been reported. Herein, we present a new named anti-oxygen-quenching RTP system using deoxycholate as a rigid medium. It can induce both lipophilic alpha-bromonaphthalene or 1-bromo-2-methylnaphthalene (BrMeN) and strongly water-soluble meso-tetrakis-(4-trimethylaminophenyl)porphyrin palladium (Pd-TAPP) to produce strong RTP emission under sodium deoxycholate of 4 mmol l(-1) and incubation time of half an hour. The maximum excitation and emission wavelengths respectively lie at 408 and 680 nm, with phosphorescence lifetime of 0.39 ms for Pd-TAPP, and at 285 and 515 nm, with lifetime of 4.9 ms for BrMeN. It is supposed that the hydrophobic and oxyphobic sandwich structure formed by two deoxycholate molecules with a phosphor in the case of deoxycholate or the interdiction fully of oxygen molecule diffusion into the microenvironment where the phosphor exists in the case of cyclodextrin is a key factor in inducing anti-oxygen-quenching RTP.

RESUMEN

Applications of phosphorimetry including solid substrate phosphorescence, liquid medium phosphorescence, low temperature phosphorescence and phosphorescence sensors were reviewed in pharmaceutical analysis. The drugs involved here included the varieties of alkaloid, Chinese traditional medicine, tetracyclines, quinolone, riboflavin, anticancer medicine, naphazoline, naproxen, nafronyl dipyridamole and so on. Solid surface phosphorimetry is characterized by sample volume of microliter grade, simple and fast operation procedures in pharmaceutical analysis. The combination of liquid phosphorescence with flow injection analysis and chemosensing technique has good advantages in fast, continuous and on-line monitoring of medicines. Modified low temperature phosphorimetry still remains its high sensitivity and overcomes some disadvantages in the procedures. Phosphorimetry will be more widely applied to pharmaceutical analysis as the development of sensitive and quenching, energy transfer, derivative and immunization luminescence.
