ABSTRACT
Objective To prepare and characterize docetaxel incorporated phosphatidylcholine -sodium desoxycholate mixed micelles (DOX EPC/SDC MMs).Methods Docetaxel mixed micelles (DOX MMs) were prepared using the co-precipitation method .An optimized formulation was obtained by single factor method , which was used to study the effect of several factors on water solubility of DOX in MMs, including EPC/total(EPC+SDC)concentration, total(EPC+SDC) concentration, the pH and ionic strength of the hydrated solution .Then, the obtained DOX MMs were characterized by investigating particle size distribution and morphology , and by conducting dilute experiments to examin micelle stability . Results The EPC/total ( EPC+SDC) concentration ratio was 0.4.The total supplementary material concentration was 2.5%.Pure water was used to disperse the film .The drug loaded MMs had an average size of 18.56 nm and average zeta potential of -24.3 mV.A roundlike shape was observed under a transmission electron microscope ( TEM).Conclusion DOX EPC/SDC MMs, prepared by a simple and convenient method , can enhance water solubility , is physically compatible with injection solutions and is expected to become a new drug delivery system .
ABSTRACT
Objective To characterize the internal structures of fluconazole-loaded cubic phase gels and establish a method for determination of fluconazole.Methods Glycerol monooleate( GMO) was used as the liquid crystal material to prepare the fluconazole loaded cubic phase gels.Polarizing light microscopy ( PLM ) and small-angle X-ray scattering ( SAXS) were used to confirm their internal structures and establish an HPLC method for determination of their content. Results Cubic phase gels were the dark field under PLM,SAXS showed that the blank cubic phase gels had two single peaks:q1(0.832 09 nm-1 ) and q2 (1.017 nm-1 ) while the fluconazole-loaded cubic phase gels had two single peaks:q1(0.818 88 nm-1)and q2(0.950 95 nm-1).Under the selected HPLC, the linearity within the range of 20-500 μg/ml was good.Conclusion PLM and SAXS are reliable for characterization of cubic phase gels.The HPLC method can be used in quality control and evaluation of this enema.
ABSTRACT
Objective To justify the clinical use of traditional Chinese materia medica (TCMM) in the treatment of influenza.Methods The literature on treatment of influenza published before December 31, 2013 was searched in MEDLINE, EMBASE, CBMdisk, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang Database.Results A total of 7 randomized controlled trials were identified and reviewed. Based on the meta-analysis, Yinqiao Powder prescription had similar effect to oseltamivir in defervescence [WMD=5.66, 95%CI (-32.02, 43.35), P=0.77] and viral shed-ding [WMD=-6.21, 95%CI (-84.19, 71.76), P=0.88], and Lianhuaqingwen also had similar effect in viral shed-ding [WMD=-0.24, 95%CI (-4.79, 4.31), P=0.92] but was more effective in defervescence [WMD=-4.65, 95%CI (-8.91, -0.38), P=0.03].Conclusion TCMM has a potential positive effect in the treatment of influenza.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To determine the contents of salicylic acid and the related substances in salicylic acid ointment by HPLC.METHODS:The determination was performed on Kromasil ODS-C18 chromatographic column with mobile phase consisted of methanol-water(adjust pH=2.5 using acetic acid,50∶50)at a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1.The sample size was 20 ?L and the detection wavelength was set at 270 nm.RESULTS:The main peak and the related substances were well-separated.The linear range of salicylic acid was 10.014～100.14 ?g?mL-1(r=0.999 9)with an average recovery of 99.35%(RSD=0.99%)and a lowest detectable limit of 5 ng?mL-1,the labeled amout of related substances all less than 1.01%.CONCLUSION:The method developed in our study is simple in operation,accurate in results,specific and suitable for the content determination of salicylic acid ointment.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To select a technique for preparation of fluconazole for injection and to establish a method for determination of its content.METHODS:The formula was selected on the basis of pH value and species of solution adjuvant.The content was determined by HPLC.RESULTS:The preparation was stable when pH value was between6.5～8.5,and its clarity could be increased by propylene glycol.The detectable concentration of fluconazole showed a good linear correlation in the range of40～200?g/ml.The average recovery was100.37%,RSD=1.37%(n=3).CONCLUSION:The fluconazole for injection prepared by the present technique is stable in quality and the method for content determination is accurate and practicable.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To prepare Lornoxicam for injection and to study its stability.METHODS:The formular and pre paration technology of Lornoxicam for injection was optimized with the index of contents,the related substances and pH value;3batches of samples'stability was investigated.RESULTS:The best formula was found to be the following:4.0g of lornoxicam,4.0g of propylene glycol,100g of mannitol and sufficient quantum of1mol/L caustic soda,3batches of sample preparations man ufactured under this formula were found to be stable in quality in the accelerated,room temperature storage test under the condition of commercial packing.CONCLUSION:The formula design was reasonable and the preparation technology was feasible.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To compare between the HPLC method and gravimetric analysis in the determination of the content of sodium new Houttuyfonte injection.METHODS:The content of sodium new Houttuyfonte injection was determined by HPLC and gravimetric analysis respectively.HPLC condition: Zorba extent-C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m) detected by UV(286 nm),and the mobile phase consisted of methanol-water-tetrabutyl ammonium hydroxide(70:30:0.3).The procedure of gravimetric analysis was in line with state drug standard.RESULTS: The determination results were notably different between the two methods.CONCLUSION:Gravimetric analysis showed no specificity in the determination of sodium new Houttuyfonte injection.
