Multivariate optimization approach for chiral resolution of drugs using human serum albumin in affinity electrokinetic chromatography-partial filling…
2005
The enantiomeric resolution of chiral compounds using HSA by means of affinity EKC (AEKC)-partial filling technique is the result of a delicate balance between different experimental variables such as protein concentration, running pH (background electrophoretic buffer, protein and compound solutions) and protein solution plug length. In this paper multivariate optimization approaches for chiral separation of four basic drugs (alprenolol, oxprenolol, promethazine and propranolol) using HSA as chiral selector in AEKC-partial filling technique are studied. The experimental conditions to achieve maximum resolution are optimized using the Box-Behnken experimental design. Partial least squares a…
Electron microscopic demonstration of intracelluar promethazine accumulation sites by a precipitation technique: application to the cerebellar cortex…
1996
A method is described that allows electron microscopic identification of the phenothiazine neuroleptic promethazine after supravital intracardiac injection of high drug concentrations (greater than or equal to 3 %). The cerebellar cortex of the mouse was used for the investigation. This procedure is based on simultaneous fixation of drug and tissue by immersion in a paraformaldehyde-glutaraldehyde solution with the addition of phosphomolybdic acid. The electron microscopic investigation revealed that the drug could easily be identified as an electron-dense precipitate. Subpopulations of neurons exhibited a higher affinity for the drug than others, but no preference for any nerve cell type …
Photochemical Derivatization and Fluorimetric Determination of Promethazine in a FIA Assembly
1992
Abstract The flow injection fluorimetric determination of promethazine is carried out by on-line photoderivatization. The PTFE tubing is helically coiled around the lamp. An analytical procedure is proposed by using aqueous solution as carrier stream: the calibration graph is linear over the range 0.05 - 20 ppm. The influence of foreign compounds is studied and the method is applied to promethazine determination in pharmaceutical formulations.
Enantioseparation of phenotiazines by affinity electrokinetic chromatography using human serum albumin as chiral selector
2007
Nowadays, there is a special interest within the pharmaceutical laboratories to develop single enantiomer formulations and consequently a need for analytical methods to determine the enantiomeric purity of drugs. The present paper deals with the enantiomeric separation of promethazine and trimeprazine enantiomers by affinity electrokinetic chromatography (AEKC)-partial filling technique using human serum albumin (HSA) as chiral selector. A multivariate optimization of the most critical experimental variables in enantioresolution, running pH, HSA concentration and plug length, is carried out to obtain enantioresolution of promethazine and trimeprazine. The estimated maximum and optimum resol…
Determination of promethazine hydrochloride with bromophenol blue by a turbidimetric method and flow injection analysis
1992
Abstract A flow injection analysis procedure for the turbidimetric determination of promethazine is proposed. The sample solution is injected directly into the carrier reagent stream, which is composed of 1.16 × 10 −3 M bromophenol blue at pH 1.20. The calibration graph is linear over the range 25–197 ppm of promethazine. The influence of some foreign substances was also investigated. The method is applied to promethazine determination in a pharmaceutical formulation.
Cerium(IV) arsenite as a solid-phase reactor for use in flow-injection analysis. Spectrophotometric determination of promethazine
1992
Abstract Cerium(IV) arsenite is used as a strongly oxidizing solid-phase reactor in an unsegmented continuous-flow injection assembly. Its preparation procedure produces particles of uniform size with suitable physico-chemical properties for use in a continuous-flow system. A manifold is proposed for the determination of promethazine in pharmaceutical preparations by spectrophotometric monitoring of the red colour produced by the oxidized drug. A linear calibration graph is obtained over the range 5–400 μg ml −1 of promethazine.
Spectrophotometric determination of promethazine by flow injection analysis and oxidation by CeIV
1992
A flow injection analysis (FIA) procedure is proposed for the determination of promethazine. The sample solution is directly injected into the carrier-reagent stream which comprises a solution of ceric ions in a sulphuric acid medium. The absorbance at 514 nm from the red colour developed by the oxidation of promethazine is measured. Effects of foreign substances have been investigated and the procedure has been applied to the determination of promethazine in a pharmaceutical formulation (tablets).
Analysis of pharmaceutical preparations containing antihistamine drugs by micellar liquid chromatography
2005
Rapid chromatographic procedures for analytical quality control of pharmaceutical preparations containing antihistamine drugs, alone or together with other kind of compounds are proposed. The method uses C18 stationary phases and micellar mobile phases of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) with either 1-propanol or 1-butanol as organic modifier. The proposed procedures allow the determination of the antihistamines: brompheniramine, chlorcyclizine, chlorpheniramine, diphenhydramine, doxylamine, flunarizine, hydroxyzine, promethazine, terfenadine, tripelennamine and triprolidine, in addition to caffeine, dextromethorphan, guaifenesin, paracetamol and pyridoxine in different pharmaceutical …
Evaluation of enantioselective binding of basic drugs to plasma by ACE.
2007
The present paper deals with the evaluation of the stereoselective binding of antihistamines (brompheniramine, chlorpheniramine, hydroxyzine, orphenadrine and phenindamine), phenothiazines (promethazine and trimeprazine) and a local anesthetic (bupivacaine) to human plasma proteins. Since all of them are drugs highly bound to proteins, a methodology to determine the bound fraction of each drug enantiomer was proposed. This methodology includes the incubation of samples containing plasma and racemic drug, ultrafiltration of the mixture and the chiral separation of enantiomers in the bound drug fraction using affinity EKC (AEKC)-partial filling technique and HSA as chiral selector. The result…
Characterizing the interaction between enantiomers of eight psychoactive drugs and highly sulfated-β-cyclodextrin by counter-current capillary electr…
2013
The estimation of apparent binding constants and limit mobilities of the complexes of the enantiomers that characterize the interaction of enantiomers with chiral selectors, in this case highly sulfated β-cyclodextrin, was approached using a simple and economic electrophoretic modality, the complete filling technique (CFT) in counter-current mode. The enantiomers of eight psychoactive drugs, four antihistamines (dimethindene, promethazine, orphenadrine and terfenadine) and four antidepressants (bupropion, fluoxetine, nomifensine and viloxazine) were separated for the first time for this cyclodextrin (CD). Estimations of thermodynamic and electrophoretic enantioselectivies were also performe…
