Bioequivalence decision for nanoparticular iron complex drugs for parenteral administration based on their disposition
2017
Although parenteral iron products have been established to medicinal use decades before, their structure and pharmacokinetic properties are not fully characterized yet. With its' second reflection paper on intravenous iron-based nano-colloidal products (EMA/CHMP/SWP/620008/2012) the European Medicine Agency provided an extensive catalogue of methods for quality, non-clinical and pharmacokinetic studies for the comparison of nano-sized iron products to an originator (EMA, 2015). For iron distribution studies, the reflection paper assumed the use of rodents. In our tests, we used a turkey fetus model to investigate time dependent tissue concentrations in pharmacological and toxicological rele…
Anticoagulant Activity of the Enantiomers of Acenocoumarol in Man
1978
For the mono-coumarin derivatives warfarin and phen-procoumon it was shown that in man and rats the S(−) enantiomer is several times more potent as anticoagulant than the R(+) enantiomer. These stereoselective differences in the anticoagulant potency reflect differences in the affinity for the receptor site rather than differences in the pharmacokinetics.
Photocatalytic conversion of glucose in aqueous suspensions of heteropolyacid-TiO2 composites.
2015
Commercial and home prepared TiO2 samples were functionalized with a commercial Keggin heteropolyacid (HPA) H 3PW12O 40 (PW12) or with a hydrothermally home prepared K 7PW11O 39 salt (PW11). All the materials were characterized by specific surface area measurements (BET), XRD analyses, Raman, DRS along with SEM observations and they have been used for glucose photocatalytic conversion in an aqueous suspension. Different reaction extents and distribution of intermediate oxidation products were observed depending on the photocatalyst. Gluconic acid, arabinose, erythrose and formic acid were observed as oxidation products when bare TiO2 or HPA/TiO2 composite materials were used. Glucose isomer…
Photocatalytic formation of H2 and value-added chemicals in aqueous glucose (Pt)-TiO2 suspension
2016
Abstract Commercial and home prepared bare and Pt-supported TiO2 samples were used as the photocatalysts for the aqueous photo-conversion of glucose at ambient pressure and temperature. Aerobic and anaerobic conditions were used to study the products of glucose degradation both in the liquid (arabinose, erythrose, gluconic acid, glucaric acid, fructose and formic acid) and gaseous (H2 and CO2) phases. The distribution of these molecules was different in the presence of the various powders, depending on the structural and physico-chemical properties of the materials, and Pt resulted essential for the anaerobic production of H2. The home prepared samples resulted more active than the commerci…
Performance of a Predictive Model for Long-Term Hemoglobin Response to Darbepoetin and Iron Administration in a Large Cohort of Hemodialysis Patients
2016
International audience; Anemia management, based on erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESA) and iron supplementation, has become an increasingly challenging problem in hemodialysis patients. Maintaining hemodialysis patients within narrow hemoglobin targets, preventing cycling outside target, and reducing ESA dosing to prevent adverse outcomes requires considerable attention from caregivers. Anticipation of the long-term response (i.e. at 3 months) to the ESA/iron therapy would be of fundamental importance for planning a successful treatment strategy. To this end, we developed a predictive model designed to support decision-making regarding anemia management in hemodialysis (HD) patients tr…
Comparative toxicity and cell-tissue distribution study on nanoparticular iron complexes using avian embryos and HepG2-cells
2007
In this study the toxicity and intracellular availability of iron from iron dextran (FeD), iron sucrose (FeS), and iron gluconate (FeG) was compared in organs of avian (turkey) embryos and in isolated cells (HepG2) in cell culture. Iron uptake was more pronounced in embryonic liver than in renal tissue. Cellular iron uptake in liver and kidney was more or less similar for the different compounds. Only some experiments showed slightly greater iron concentrations in liver and kidney with FeG compared with FeD and FeS. Significant differences were found in the survival ratios of the eggs and the embryo weights depending on the type of iron complex administered. The rank order of toxicities was…
