Multi-technique approach for qualitative and quantitative characterization of furazidin degradation kinetics under alkaline conditions

2016

Degradation of drug furazidin was studied under different conditions of environmental pH (11-13) and temperature (30-60°C). The novel approach of hybrid hard- and soft-multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares (HS-MCR-ALS) method was applied to UV-vis spectral data to determine a valid kinetic model and kinetic parameters of the degradation process. The system was found to be comprised of three main species and best characterized by two consecutive first-order reactions. Furazidin degradation rate was found to be highly dependent on the applied environmental conditions, showing more prominent differences between both degradation steps towards higher pH and temperature.

Comparison of several methods used for the determination of cephalosporins. Analysis of cephalexin in pharmaceutical samples

2002

The precision of UV absorbance of intact and acid degraded cephalosporins, ninhydrin, high performance liquid chromatography and iodometric methods used for analysis of cefoxitin, cefotaxime, cephazolin and cephalexin were compared. To obtain the calibration graphs the analytical signal used were: absorbance, first derivative absorbance, second derivative absorbance and H-point Standard Additions Method by using absorbance values at two selected wavelengths as analytical signal. These methods and calibration graphs were also used for the determination of cephalexin in pharmaceutical samples.

SAR-studies of γ-secretase modulators with PPARγ-agonistic and 5-lipoxygenase-inhibitory activity for Alzheimer’s disease

2014

Abstract We present the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of compounds containing a 2-(benzylidene)hexanoic acid scaffold as multi-target directed γ-secretase-modulators. Broad structural variations were undertaken to elucidate the structure–activity-relationships at the 5-position of the aromatic core. Compound 13 showed the most potent activity profile with IC50 values of 0.79 μM (Aβ42), 0.3 μM (5-lipoxygenase) and an EC50 value of 4.64 μM for PPARγ-activation. This derivative is the first compound exhibiting low micromolar to nanomolar activities for these three targets. Combining γ-secretase-modulation, PPARγ-agonism and inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase in one compound could be a …

Differential properties of the Moreau envelope

2014

International audience; In a vector space endowed with a uniformly Gâteaux differentiable norm, it is proved that the Moreau envelope enjoys many remarkable differential properties and that its subdifferential can be completely described through a certain approximate proximal mapping. This description shows in particular that the Moreau envelope is essentially directionally smooth. New differential properties are derived for the distance function associated with a closed set. Moreover, the analysis, when applied to the investigation of the convexity of Tchebyshev sets, allows us to recover several known results in the literature and to provide some new ones.

Metabolism of polychlorinated norbornenes by Clostridium butyricum.

1972

STUDIES of the metabolism of cyclodien-insecticides, such as dieldrin, endrin, endosulphan, have revealed valuable information about their fate in the ecosystem1. With all metabolites identified so far, however, the hexachlorinated norbornene moiety remains unchanged2,3. Only from photodieldrin, a cage-like derivative of dieldrin, have dechlorinated metabolites been reported4,5.

Prefix Stripping Re-Re-Revisited: MEG Investigations of Morphological Decomposition and Recomposition

2019

We revisit a long-standing question in the psycholinguistic and neurolinguistic literature on comprehending morphologically complex words: are prefixes and suffixes processed using the same cognitive mechanisms? Recent work using Magnetoencephalography (MEG) to uncover the dynamic temporal and spatial responses evoked by visually presented complex suffixed single words provide us with a comprehensive picture of morphological processing in the brain, from early, form-based decomposition, through lexical access, grammatically constrained recomposition, and semantic interpretation. In the present study, we find that MEG responses to prefixed words reveal interesting early differences in the la…

Doubly nonlinear equations with unbounded operators

2004

Abstract The solvability of the evolution system v′(t)+ B (t)u(t)∋ f (t),v(t)∈ A (t)u(t) , 0 A (t) are bounded, possibly degenerate, subdifferentials and B (t) are unbounded subdifferentials.

A note on Fréchet and approximate subdifferentials of composite functions

1994

The aim of this note is to present in the reflexive Banach space setting a natural and simple proof of the formula of the approximate subdifferential of a composite function.

Polydimethylsiloxane composites containing 1,2-naphtoquinone 4-sulphonate as unique dispositive for estimation of casein in effluents from dairy indu…

2015

A unique dispositive to determine casein which is the most abundant protein in dairy sewages has been proposed. In this sensing technology, the derivatization reagent 1,2-naphtoquininone 4-sulphonate (NQS) is embedded into a polydimethylsiloxane-tetraethylortosilicate-SiO2 nanoparticles composite (PDMS-TEOS-SiO2NPs). When the composite is immersed into the samples, casein is extracted from the solution and derivatized inside the PDMS matrix after 10 min at 100°C. The sensing support changes its color from yellow to orange depending on the casein concentration. Quantitative analysis can be carried out by measuring the absorbance with a reflection probe or by image-processing tool (GIMP). Thi…
