Supercritical fluid extraction of pesticides
1989
The extraction behaviour of 10 μg samples of five pesticides and some related compounds from glass wool with supercritical CO2 has been investigated under several conditions (10 MPa, 20 MPa extraction pressure, 313 K, dry and water saturated CO2). The extraction fluid was decompressed over a line of little columns, filled with 3μ Si60 or RP18, and the amount of deposited material was analyzed by HPLC for each of these columns. Due to the progressive pressure/density reduction along the line, the solubility diminishes and hence the compounds are deposited according to their polarity/vapor pressure earlier or later on the line. Thus extraction and prefractionation of compounds of different po…
High-pressure solubility data of system ethanol (1)+catechin (2)+CO2 (3)
2001
Abstract Supercritical fluid extraction posses several advantages over traditional liquid–solvent-based extraction methods including improved selectivity, expeditiousness, automation and environmental safety. Fluid phase equilibrium data is essential for study the viability of supercritical extraction and the design of the extraction columns often used for this type of separations. During the past few years it has been demonstrated that phenolic compounds, such catechins and procyanidins from seeds, contribute to both the flavour properties and the pharmacological effects of wine. The extraction of catechin using supercritical CO2 is not possible, it only extracts traces of product, probabl…
High-pressure solubility data of the system resveratrol (3)+ethanol (2)+CO2 (1)
2001
Abstract Supercritical fluid extraction possesses several advantages over traditional liquid-solvent-based extraction methods, including improved selectivity, expeditiousness, automation and environmental safety. Fluid-phase equilibrium data are essential for studying the viability of supercritical extraction and the design of the extraction columns often used for this type of separation. Resveratrol has been correlated with serum lipid reduction and inhibition of platelet aggregation, and its cancer chemopreventive activity has recently been reported. The extraction of resveratrol using supercritical CO 2 is not possible; it only extracts traces of product, probably due to its polar nature…
Spectrophotometry: Pharmaceutical Applications
2013
Pharmaceutical analysis is mainly focussed in drug analyses, in raw materials and pharmaceutical formulations, involving the determination of active components, impurities, excipients, content uniformity, solubility, dissolution rate and stability.
Universal model for the calculation of all organic solvent–water partition coefficients
1998
Abstract We present the basis for building a universal organic solvation model to calculate solubility in any organic solvent and in water, as well as the organic solvent–water partition coefficient ( P ). Log P values are of the same order of magnitude as reference calculations but for a few cases which are discussed. Normalized log P contributions are sensitive to the rest of the atoms. When comparing porphin with phthalocyanine, the latter results in an amphipathic molecule. For C 70 , the contribution of a–e carbons to log P correlates with the distances from the nearest pentagon. The method has been also applied to benzobisthiazole oligomers and phenyl alcohols.
Multicomponent solid dispersion as a formulation strategy to improve drug permeation: A case study on the anti-colorectal cancer irinotecan
2019
Abstract Multicomponent solid dispersions (MSD)s are frequently proposed as efficient drug delivery systems to improve drug solubility and bioavailability. In this study, the effects of specific excipients, such as mannitol, inulin, poly(methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic)acid (PMMA) and cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) have been tested to potentially improve irinotecan (IRN) permeation in the intestinal tract with the intention to protect the drug from the gastric environment. MSDs were formulated as microparticles by Spray-Drying technique. Raw materials and microparticles have been characterized by FTIR analysis to determine hydrogen bonding. SEM images were recorded to investigate morp…
Liquid/Gas and Liquid/Liquid Phase Behavior of n-Butane/1,4-Polybutadiene versus n-Butane/1,2-Polybutadiene
2005
Solutions of 1,4-polybutadiene (1,4-PB, 98% cis) and of 1,2-polybutadiene (1,2-PB) in n-butane (n-C 4 ) were studied with respect to their vapor pressure and to their demixing into two liquid phases under isochoric conditions within the temperature range from 25 to 75 °C. 1,2-PB mixes homogeneously with n-C 4 at any ratio, in contrast to 1,4-PB, which exhibits a miscibility gap extending from practically pure solvent to approximately 40 wt % polymer. Corresponding to these solubility differences, the vapor pressures for the system n-C 4 /1,4-PB are considerably higher than for n-C 4 /1,2-PB at the same concentration and temperature. The experimental results are modeled accurately and consis…
Preferential solvation of a dicyanate ester monomer and poly(sulfone) in different organic solvents by size-exclusion chromatography.
2002
Preferential solvation parameters A in the ternary systems solvent (1) -monomer (2) -polymer (3) were determined as a tool to measure the compatibility between the cyanate ester monomer Arocy B10 and poly(sulfone), PSF, in the presence of three organic solvents: tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide and dicloromethane. The A parameter was measured by size-exclusion chromatography at different monomer-to-polymer ratios. The quantitative evaluation was rigorously made at polymer-diluted conditions. PSF was found to be preferentially solvated by the monomer. Concerning the solvent used, systems containing tetrahydrofuran showed the strongest solvation, the lowest A values being those obtained in …
Simultaneous dissolution profiles of two drugs in pharmaceutical formulations by an FIA manifold
2002
Abstract This article deals with the simultaneous determination of dissolution profiles of two drugs with overlapped spectra, present in the same pharmaceutical formulation. The official procedure for the dissolution profile is adapted to the continuous-flow methodology; the dissolution vessel is connected to an FIA manifold, in which the sample aliquots from the dissolution vessel are treated in order to adjust to the suitable pH and dilution degree to be monitored. The resulting solution is injected into the carrier stream, an acetic acid–acetate buffer at pH 4.3 and forced to the flow-cell of the spectrophotometer. The simultaneous determination of both profiles is based on the first der…
Solubility of some pesticides in supercritical CO2
1988
The solubility limits of some pesticides (Linuron, Methoxychlor, Diclofopmethyl, Diclofop and 2,4-D) and of 3,4-dichloroaniline have been determined in supercritical CO2 at 200 bar and 40° C, using the Milton Roy sample preparation accessory SPATM. Depending on the polarity and vapour pressure of the investigated compounds, the solubility was found to be between 0.3 and 12 gl−1.
