Assessing the particle size of a broadly dispersed powder by complementary techniques
1998
The experimental determination of reliable particle size distribution curves and statistical parameters of broad distributions is known to be a difficult task. This problem is addressed here in an attempt to characterize the granularity of three distinct batches of a pharmaceutical powder (fenofibrate from Fournier Laboratories). The methodology consists in comparing the results, expressed in terms of surface based mean diameter, as obtained by three complementary techniques, namely optical microscopy image analysis, laser light low angle diffraction and surface area measurement by krypton physisorption. These techniques are applied in parallel to the material of interest and to a certified…
Induction of Human P-Glycoprotein in Caco-2 cells: Development of a Highly Sensitive Assay System for P-Glycoprotein-Mediated Drug Transport
2006
The aim of this work is to develop a highly sensitive assay system for P-gp-mediated transport by using two methods, induction of P-gp and short-term culture of Caco-2 cells. To induce P-gp in Caco-2 cells, cells were cultured in vinblastine-containing medium. The mRNA level of P-gp was approximately 7-fold higher in Caco-2 cells cultured with vinblastine (P-gp-induced Caco-2 cells) than in control cells. Western blot analysis showed a significant increase in P-gp expression. After cell differentiation, the mRNA level of P-gp was downregulated, however, P-gp-induced Caco-2 cells still possessed a 5.6-fold higher mRNA level of P-gp compared to control cells. Polarized transport of substrate …
Herbizide, 3. Mitt. Synthese von 4,6-Dialkyl-2-cyanaminopyrimidinen und Untersuchungen ihrer Struktur durch13C-NMR-Spektroskopie
1985
Die Kondensation von Dicyandiamid (1) mit den β-Diketonen 2a–c fuhrt zu den 2,4-unsymmetrisch substituierten 2-Cyanaminopyrimidinen 3a–c, fur deren Struktur sich aus den13C-NMR-spektroskopischen Untersuchungen das Vorliegen eines Gleichgewichts mit den tautomeren Formen 7 und 8 der 2-Cyaniminopyrimidine ableitet. Das 2-Cyanamino-4,6-diethylpyrimidin hat sich als herbizid wirksam erwiesen. Herbicides, III: Synthesis of 4,6-Dialkyl-2-(cyanoamino)pyrimidines and Investigations of Their Structures by 13C-NMR Spectroscopy Condensation of dicyandiamide (1) with the β-diketones 2a–c leads to the 2,4-unsymmetrically substituted 2-(cyanoamino)pyrimidines 3a–c. According to investigations by 13C-NMR …

Compounds with Potentially Positive Inotropic Activity, II: Synthesis of 3,4-Dihydro-2-[(3-oxo-1-cyclopenten-1-yl)amino]-1(2H)-phenanthrone and 3-(1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-1-hydroxy-2-phenanthrylamino)-2-cyclopentenone The synthesis of the title compounds from 1,3-cyclopentanedione and 2-amino-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-phenanthrone and 2-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-phenanthrole is described.
A new ecdysteroid and other constituents from two Dioscorea species
2008
Phytochemical investigation of the rhizome of Dioscorea dumetorum has led to the isolation by several chromatographic steps on normal and reversed phase silica gel of a new ecdysteroid, (20R)-5β,11α,20-trihydroxyecdysone (1), and two known ecdysteroids, ajugasterone C (2) and herkesterone (3). Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods including 1D- and 2D-NMR (COSY, TOCSY, HSQC and HMBC). This is the first report on the occurrence of phytoecdysteroids in the Dioscoreaceae family. These compounds were devoid of antifungal activity against three Candida species (Candida albicans, Candida glabrata and Candida tropicalis, MIC > 200 μg/ml).
Study of Reactivity in the 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition Reactions Leading to New Triazolopyrrolopyrazine Ring Systems
2010
The influence of the structural symmetry of the 2-pi double-reactive-sites component in the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions, involving nitrilimines as dipoles, was investigated. the experimental data showed that the loss of the symmetry leads to the formation of the monocycloadduct in good yields.
Sample Preparation to Determine Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Products in an All-Water Matrix: Solid Phase Extraction
2020
© 2020 by the authors. Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are abundantly used by people, and some of them are excreted unaltered or as metabolites through urine, with the sewage being the most important source to their release to the environment. These compounds are in almost all types of water (wastewater, surface water, groundwater, etc.) at concentrations ranging from ng/L to µg/L. The isolation and concentration of the PPCPs from water achieves the appropriate sensitivity. This step is mostly based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) but also includes other approaches (dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME), buckypaper, SPE using multicartridges, etc.). In this rev…
The ethnobotany, phytochemistry, and biological properties of Nigella damascena – A review
2022
This review is a systematic scientific work on medicinal and traditional use, on the chemical composition of specialized metabolites, volatile and non-volatile, on aspects related to toxicology and phytotherapy of Nigella damascena L. The genus Nigella (Ranunculaceae) is distributed throughout the Mediterranean basin, extending to northern India, and has been divided into three sections. Nigella damanscena L. is traditionally used as an ingredient in food, for example, as flavouring agents in bread and cheese, but is also known in folk medicine, used to regulate menstruation; for catarrhal affections and amenorrhea; as a diuretic and sternutatory; as an analgesic, anti-oedematous, and antip…
