Chromium(VI) oxide oxidation of non-ethoxylated and ethoxylated alcohols for determination by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry
2010
A new derivatization procedure to increase the sensitivity of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to non-ethoxylated and ethoxylated alcohols was investigated. The analytes were oxidized with chromium(VI) oxide and the resulting carboxylic and ethoxy-carboxylic acids were isolated by extraction with ethyl acetate; the extracts were alkalinized and infused into the ESI-MS system working in the negative-ion mode. The yields of the combined oxidation-extraction were ca. 100% for non-ethoxylated fatty alcohols dissolved in acetone and they decreased moderately in samples containing increasing amounts of water (e.g., a 75% yield was obtained with 50% water). Ethoxylated alcohols w…
Entrapment of Phenytoin into Microspheres of Oleaginous Materials: Process Development and in Vitro Evaluation of Drug Release
1997
AbstractA novel multiparticulate preparation of the antiepileptic agent phenytoin (1) was developed and evaluated in vitro. The preparation consists of gastroresistant microparticulate drug delivery system formulated with oleaginous material (lipospheres) to minimize unwanted effects of l on gastric apparatus. The drug was dispersed in a spherical micromatrix consisting of a mixture of stearyl alcohol and glycerol esters of various fatty acids. The best mixture to obtain discrete, reproducible, free-flowing lipospheres consisted of glyceryl monostearate dilaurate and stearyl alcohol (ratio 3: 17). The lipospheres were obtained by a technique involving melting and dispersion of drug-containi…
