A kinetic-catalytic method for iodide based on the simultaneous addition of inhibitor and substrate
1987
Abstract A kinetic-catalytic method of analysis, based on the addition of a mixture of inhibitor and substrate, at a constant rate, over the catalyst in the presence of the other component of the indicator reaction is studied. The method is applied to the determination of iodide using the Ce(IV)As(III) catalytic reaction and Hg(II) as inhibitor. Under suitable experimental conditions the absorbance of the unconsumed Ce(IV) is inversely proportional to the initial iodide concentration.
Isocratic and gradient elution in micellar liquid chromatography with Brij-35
2015
Polyoxyethylene(23)lauryl ether (known as Brij-35) is a nonionic surfactant, which has been considered as an alternative to the extensively used in micellar liquid chromatography anionic surfactant sodium lauryl (dodecyl) sulfate, for the analysis of drugs and other types of compounds. Brij-35 is the most suitable nonionic surfactant for micellar liquid chromatography, owing to its commercial availability, low cost, low toxicity, high cloud temperature, and low background absorbance. However, it has had minor use. In this work, we gather and discuss some results obtained in our laboratory with several β-blockers, sulfonamides, and flavonoids, concerning the use of Brij-35 as mobile phase mo…
Viscosity-mediated negative food effect on oral absorption of poorly-permeable drugs with an absorption window in the proximal intestine: In vitro ex…
2014
Concomitant food intake can diminish oral absorption of drugs with limited permeability and an absorption window in the proximal intestine, due to viscosity-mediated decrease in dosage form disintegration time and drug dissolution rate. Three poorly-permeable drugs (atenolol, metformin hydrochloride, and furosemide) exhibiting negative food effect, and one highly-soluble and highly-permeable (metoprolol tartrate), serving as a negative control, were selected for the study. In vitro and in silico tools were used to evaluate the influence of media viscosity on drug bioperformance under fasted and fed conditions. The obtained results demonstrated that increased medium viscosity in the presence…
Micellar liquid chromatography for prediction of drug transport.
2000
Abstract The vast majority of well absorbed drugs are transported passively across the cell membranes. Physicochemical descriptors of drug molecules that are believed to influence transcellular transport are routinely used to predict drug absorption by means of complex mathematical models. In this paper, a new in vitro method, based on the retention data in micellar liquid chromatography (MLC), is validated for the prediction of passive drug absorption. The retention of a heterogeneous drugs set in MLC using Brij 35 as surfactant in the mobile phase is compared with the retention data reported in literature obtained in red cell membrane lipid liposomes, human red cell membranes vesicles (ve…
Influence of gamma-aminobutyric acid on baclofen intestinal absorption.
1994
Since previous studies suggested that baclofen absorption in the rat middle intestine was inhibited by beta-alanine and therefore mediated, at least in part, by the beta-aminoacid carrier, we focused our new studies on the analysis of the possible inhibition of the drug by a gamma-aminoacid model compound, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). A rat jejunum in situ study was undertaken in order to evaluate the effect of GABA on baclofen absorption and to establish the inhibition model. Assays using isotonic perfusion solutions of 0.5 mM baclofen with starting GABA concentrations ranging from 0 to 100 mM are reported. The results show that the absorption rate pseudoconstants of the drug decrease a…
Partially competitive inhibition of intestinal baclofen absorption by beta-alanine, a nonessential dietary aminoacid.
1991
In situ intestinal absorption of baclofen in the rat in the presence of beta-alanine has been investigated. Through the perfusion of 0.50 mM baclofen solutions containing variable concentrations of the aminoacid (from 5 to 100 mM), a partially competitive inhibition of baclofen absorption was characterized: absorption rate pseudoconstants of the spasmolytic drug decrease as beta-alanine concentration increases, until a limiting value is obtained (36.8 per cent of that found for baclofen alone). A computer method was developed in order to calculate parameters governing baclofen absorption in the presence of beta-aminoacid, with the following results: Vm = 11.22 mM h-1; Km = 7.42 mM; Ki = 2.4…
Digestion and absorption rates of [3H]-oleic acid and [14C]-triolein do not differ in rats fed heated (-) and (+) gossypol cottonseed and soybean flo…
1998
This study was conducted to compare in vivo the acute effects of heated (+) and (-) gossypol cottonseed flours with those of soybean flour on lipid digestion and absorption in growing rats. Rats were fed by gastric intubation mixed [ 3 H]-oleic acid and [ 14 C]-triolein with heated flours or without flour (control). Lipid digestion and absorption were determined for 6 h after meal intubation. Both radioactivities recovered in gastrointestinal tract were significantly higher in rats fed (+) gossypol cottonseed flour than in all other groups. The majority of both recovered radioactivities was found in stomach contents, then in stomach wall and finally in intestinal wall. The distribution of b…
Kinetics of the intestinal uptake of zinc acexamate in normal and zinc-depleted rats.
1990
Abstract The uptake of zinc as acexamic acid salt in the small intestine of the anaesthetized rat was shown to be a two-phase process in normal animals. The first phase is rapid mucosal binding which satisfies the Freundlich isotherm equation and which involves about 30 per cent of the initially perfused zinc. The second phase was characterized as an apparent absorption step which obeys Michaelis-Menten and first-order combined kinetics, with the following parameters: Vm = 6.51 mg h−1; Km = 2.96 mg; ka = 0.306 h−1. In largely non-saturated conditions, an apparent global rate constant of about 2.50 h−1 was calculated. No significant interference due to endogenous zinc excretion into the smal…
Intestinal absorption pathway of gamma-aminobutyric acid in rat small intestine.
1994
Intestinal absorption of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), as a model compound for gamma-aminoacids, has not been extensively studied from the kinetic viewpoint. Since data from our laboratory suggested that some competition arises between intestinal absorption of beta-alanine and GABA and since our intent was to maintain the aqueous stagnant diffusion layer in order to approach absorption tests to in vivo physiological conditions, a rat jejunum in situ study was undertaken in order to gain an insight into the mechanism of GABA absorption. In the present paper, results from assays using isotonic perfusion solutions with starting GABA concentrations ranging from 1 to 50 mM are reported. They s…
Quantitative analysis of the effect of controlled-release formulation on nonlinear gastrointestinal absorption of P-glycoprotein substrate talinolol …
2020
Abstract Oral absorption of talinolol, a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), from a sustained-release (SR) formulation was reportedly decreased compared to that from an immediate-release (IR) formulation. The aim of this study was to predict and understand the effect of controlled-release formulation on the oral absorption of P-gp substrates by developing a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) absorption model incorporating multiple kinetic parameters obtained from in vitro studies, using talinolol as a model substrate. Simulation analysis using the developed PBPK absorption model indicated that the clinically observed marked decrease in the plasma concentration of talinolol adminis…
