RÉSUMÉ

Tetracycline (TC) is a widely used antibiotic, and evaluating its interaction with humic substances (HS) that act as a complexing agent in the environment is essential to understanding the availability of this contaminant in the environment. This study evaluated the interaction between HS and TC using different spectroscopic techniques, theoretical studies, and biological assays simulating environmental conditions. TC interacts with HS, preferably by electrostatic forces, with a binding constant of 9.2 × 103 M-1 (30 °C). This process induces conformational changes in the superstructure, preferably in the HS, like protein fraction. Besides, studies using the 8-anilino-1-naphthalene sulfonate (ANS) probe indicated that the antibiotic alters the hydrophobicity degree on HS's surface. Synchronized fluorescence shows that the TC interaction occurs preferentially with the protein-like fraction of soil organic matter (KSV = 26.28 ± 1.03 M-1). The TC epitope was evaluated by 1H NMR and varied according to the pH (4.8 and 9.0) of the medium, as well as the main forces responsible for the stabilization of the HS-TC complex. The molecular docking studies showed that the formation of the HS-TC complex is carried out spontaneously (ΔG = -7.1 kcal mol-1) and is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions, as observed in the experimental spectroscopic results. Finally, biological assays indicated that HS influenced the antimicrobial activity of TC. Thus, this study contributed to understanding the dynamics and distribution of TC in the environment and HS's potential in the remediation of antibiotics of this class in natural systems, as these can have adverse effects on ecosystems and human health.

RÉSUMÉ

The growing appearance of antibiotic-resistant strains of microorganisms originated from the widespread use and ubiquitous presence of such drugs is a major concern in the world. The development of methodologies able to detect such substances at low concentration in real water samples is mandatory to overcome this problem. Europium(III) is known to form complexes with tetracycline (TC) with photoluminescent characteristics useful for TC determination. In the present work, we synthesized for the first time carbon nanoparticles (CN) showing delayed photoluminescence using a Europium(III) doping synthesis. The new material (PCNEu) was characterized both morphologically and spectroscopically, showing an analytical photoluminescent signal in presence of TC, arising from the 5D0→7F2 transition of europium, one hundred times higher than that of the europium salt alone in presence of the antibiotic. This enhancement is a consequence of the amplifying effect exerted by nanoparticle structure itself, leading to an efficient synergistic "antenna effect" in the system PCNEu - TC. The analytical signal is affected both by pH and the nature of the buffer used, and it allows the detection of tetracycline in waters with a limit of detection of 2.18 nM and recoveries between 90 and 110%. The analytical performance of the developed methodology enables having lower limits of detection than other luminescent and chemiluminescent reported methodologies.

RÉSUMÉ

Recent studies reported a new strategy of electro-oxidation of organic compounds using methanol as solvent. Considering its well-known toxicity, this work sought to evaluate the use of ethanol as an alternative solvent for pollutants degradation. Therefore, thorough analyses were performed in order to evaluate tetracycline (TC) electro-oxidation using DSA-Cl2 anode in ethanol-H2O solutions. The effects of solvent mixture, pH and current density on the degradation efficiency were evaluated. TC degradation in methanol-water and ethanol-water media resulted in very close removals of 95% and 90%, respectively, after 15 min of electrolysis at 10 mA cm-2. In ethanol medium, the increase in current densities from 10 to 25 mA cm-2 did not lead to significant changes in removal efficiency. The variation of the initial pH of the solution showed that the best removal efficiencies were obtained at neutral pH resulting in TC removals up to 90%, which is actually related to the molecular structure of TC. Through analysis using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), the formation of radicals such as hydroxyethyl (CH3●CHOH), hydroxyl (●OH) and ethoxy (CH3CH2O●) were detected, which effectively contributed toward the pollutant oxidation.

RÉSUMÉ

Calcium phosphate cements have the advantage that they can be prepared as a paste that sets in a few minutes and can be easily adapted to the shape of the bone defect, which facilitates its clinical application. In this research, six formulations of brushite (dicalcium phosphate dihydrated) cement were obtained and the effect of the addition of sodium alginate was analyzed, such as its capacity as a tetracycline release system. The samples that contain sodium alginate set in 4 or 5 min and showed a high percentage of injectability (93%). The cements exhibit compression resistance values between 1.6 and 2.6 MPa. The drug was released in a range between 12.6 and 13.2% after 7 days. The antimicrobial activity of all the cements containing antibiotics was proven. All samples reached values of cell viability above 70 percent. We also observed that the addition of the sodium alginate and tetracycline improved the cell viability.

RÉSUMÉ

We developed a technique that detects Al3+ in milk/bio-samples, and reversibly applied to recognize tetracycline (TC) in milk, enhancing the fluorescence intensity without interference from other cations (Cd2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Sr2+, Mg2+, Fe3+, K+, Sm3+, Ag+, Na+, Ba2+, Cr3+, Zn2+ and Mn2+); the limit of detection (LOD) is found to be 0.00022 mM with r2 = 0.9439. The detection of Al3+ is tested in milk as well as in living cells (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Debaryomyces spp.) by TC or by its quantum dots. This is consistent with the molecular orbital, revealing that the lowering of the energy of HOMO (Highly Occupied Molecular Orbital) discourages the electron transfer from HOMO of fluorophore to HOMO of excited states of Al-complex that increases the fluorescent intensity. Interestingly, carbon dots (CDs) generated from TC also recognize Al3+ as its LOD is as low as to 0.00050 mM with r2 of 0.9404.

RÉSUMÉ

Interpolyelectrolyte complexes of chitosan and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) [NaPSS] were synthesized and obtained in the form of solid particles, with two different sulfonate to aminium molar ratios: 0.7, resulting in particles with positive zeta potential (IPEC+), and 1.4, yielding particles with negative zeta potential (IPEC-). Both particles were characterized as potential drug sorbents using differently charged drugs: sodium cromoglycate (negatively charged), and tetracycline hydrochloride (positively charged). The adsorption isotherm for cromoglycate and tetracycline on IPEC+ was adequately described by the Langmuir model, while the IPEC- sorption of tetracycline followed the Redlich-Peterson isotherm without the occurrence of cromoglycate sorption. The sorption kinetics consisted of two processes, one fast and the other slow, which were correlated to purely surface-related interactions and processes that resulted in diffusion and/or destruction/rearrangement on the particle surface and subsurface, respectively. Charge build up equilibrium and kinetics were also monitored via zeta potential measurements, and the differences between mass drug uptake and particle charging were used to propose adsorption mechanisms for the systems studied in this work.

RÉSUMÉ

The widespread use of antibiotics created selective pressure for the emergence of strains that would persist despite antibiotic toxicity. The bacterial resistance mechanisms are several, with efflux pumps being one of the main ones. These pumps are membrane proteins with the function of removing antibiotics from the cell cytoplasm. Due to this importance, the aim of this work was to evaluate the inhibitory effect of tannic acid against efflux pumps expressed by the Staphylococcus aureus RN4220 and IS-58 strains. The efflux pump inhibition was assayed using a sub-inhibitory concentration of efflux pump standard inhibitors and tannic acid (MIC/8), observing their capacity to decrease the MIC of Ethidium bromide (EtBr) and antibiotics due the possible inhibitory effect of these substances. The MICs of EtBr and antibiotics were significantly different in the presence of tannic acid, indicating the inhibitory effect of this product against efflux pumps of both strains. These results indicate the possible usage of tannic acid asan inhibitor and an adjuvant in the antibiotic therapy against multidrug resistant bacteria (MDR).

RÉSUMÉ

This study aimed to compare two nanofiber drug delivery systems that were prepared with an electrospun process and have the potential to serve as adjuvants for the treatment of periodontal disease. The first system was composed of polycaprolactone loaded with tetracycline (TCN) and the second was composed of polycaprolactone loaded with tetracycline/ß-cyclodextrin (TCN:BCD). An antimicrobial diffusion test was performed for each of these sets of nanofibers with the microorganisms, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis, both of which contribute to periodontal disease. In vitro release profiles were also obtained, and the nanofibers were characterized by thermal analysis, x-ray powder diffraction, infrared absorption spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Profiles of the TCN and TCN:BCD nanofibers showed that drug release occurred for up to 14days. However, the TCN:BCD nanofibers appeared to better protect and enhance the biological absorption of TCN due to the formation of a TCN:BCD inclusion complex.

RÉSUMÉ

Tyre pyrolysis char (TPC), produced when manufacturing pyrolysis oil from waste tyre, was used as raw material to prepare activated carbons (ACs) by KOH activation. KOH to TPC weight ratios (W) between 0.5 and 6, and activation temperatures from 600 to 800 °C, were used. An increase in W resulted in a more efficient development of surface area, microporosity and mesoporosity. Thus, ACs derived from TPC (TPC-ACs) with specific surface areas up to 814 m(2) g(-1) were obtained. TPC, TPC-ACs and a commercial AC (CAC) were tested for removing Tetracycline (TC) in aqueous phase, and systematic adsorption studies, including equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamic aspects, were performed. Kinetics was well described by the pseudo-first order model for TPC, and by a pseudo second-order kinetic model for ACs. TC adsorption equilibrium data were also fitted by different isotherm models: Langmuir, Freundlich, Sips, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Dubinin-Astokov, Temkin, Redlich-Peterson, Radke-Prausnitz and Toth. The thermodynamic study confirmed that TC adsorption onto TPC-ACs is a spontaneous process. TC adsorption data obtained in the present study were compared with those reported in the literature, and differences were explained in terms of textural properties and surface functionalities. TPC-ACs had similar performances to those of commercial ACs, and might significantly improve the economic balance of the production of pyrolysis oil from waste tyres.

RÉSUMÉ

New and more aggressive antibiotic resistant bacteria arise at an alarming rate and represent an ever-growing challenge to global health care systems. Consequently, the development of new antimicrobial agents is required to overcome the inefficiency of conventional antibiotics and bypass treatment limitations related to these pathologies. In this study, we present a synthesis protocol, which was able to entrap tetracycline antibiotic into silica nanospheres. Bactericidal efficacy of these structures was tested against bacteria that were susceptible and resistant to antibiotics. For nonresistant bacteria, our composite had bactericidal efficiency comparable to that of free-tetracycline. On the other hand, the synthesized composites were able to avoid bacterial growth of resistant bacteria while free-tetracycline has shown no significant bactericidal effect. Finally, we have investigated the cytotoxicity of these nanoparticles against mammalian cells to check any possible poisoning effect. It was found that these nanospheres are not apoptosis-inducers and only a reduction on the cell replication rate was seen when compared to the control without nanoparticles.

RÉSUMÉ

Zein is a protein containing a large amount of nonpolar amino acids, which has shown the ability to form aggregates and entrap solutes, such as drugs and amino acids. NMR techniques were used to detect binding interactions and measure affinity between zein and three different drugs: tetracycline, amoxicillin and indomethacin. The release study of zein microparticle formulations containing any of these drugs was confronted with the affinity results, showing a remarkable correlation. The feasible methodology employed, focused in the functionality of the protein-drug interaction, can be very promising for the rational design of appropriate drug vehicles for drug delivery.

RÉSUMÉ

Adsorption phenomena occurring at the solid/liquid interface of chitosan particles are of extreme importance in the kinetics of drug release/upload as well as in effluent treatment by adsorption. In this work, equilibrium and kinetic aspects of protonated tetracycline adsorption on chitosan are explored using classic solution depletion method and zeta potential measurements. Equilibrium experiments showed that for solutions with tetracycline initial concentration of ca. 1.2 g L(-1), corresponding to a pH around 3, chitosan structure disrupted, as indicated by an increase in magnitude of tetracycline sorption. Adsorption and zeta potential isotherms before disruption suggested that the process of adsorption had a Langmuir character up to a point at which subsurface was exposed to adsorption; at this point, a second mode of sorption began: zeta potential tended to an equilibrium value, following Sips isotherm and tetracycline sorption had a linear dependence on its continuous phase concentration. The kinetics of tetracycline sorption suggested that sorption of tetracycline was divided between the sorption of protonated and non-protonated tetracycline; tetracycline in its non-protonated form seemed to rule the sorption of tetracycline.

RÉSUMÉ

The adsorption of tetracycline (TC) on montmorillonite was studied as a function of pH and Ca(2+) concentration using a batch technique complemented with X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. In the absence of Ca(2+), TC adsorption was high at low pH and decreased as the pH increased. In the presence of Ca(2+), at least two different adsorption processes took place in the studied systems, i.e., cation exchange and Ca-bridging. Cation exchange was the prevailing process at pH<5, and thus, TC adsorption decreased by increasing total Ca(2+) concentration. On the contrary, Ca-bridging was the prevailing process at pH>5, and thus, TC adsorption increased by increasing Ca(2+) concentration. The pH 5 represents an isoadsorption pH where both adsorption processes compensate each other. TC adsorption became independent of Ca(2+) concentration at this pH. For TC adsorption on Ca(2+)-montmorillonite in 0.01 M NaCl experiments, the ratio adsorbed TC/retained Ca(2+) was close to 1 in the pH range of 5-9, indicating an important participation of Ca(2+) in the binding of TC to montmorillonite. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy showed that TC adsorption induced intercalation between montmorillonite layers forming a multiphase system with stacking of layers with and without intercalated TC.

RÉSUMÉ

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do tratamento químico com ácido cítrico, tetraciclina, EDTA e ácido fosfórico em discos de titânio de superfícies lisas e rugosas, após serem contaminados por biofilme bacteriano humano, e inseridos no tecido conjuntivo subcutâneo de ratos. Utilizou-se 180 discos de titânio, sendo 90 lisos e 90 rugosos, que foram colocados em 19 placas de acrílico utilizadas por voluntários durante 7 dias. Estes discos foram divididos em 12 grupos contendo 15 discos cada um: Grupo 1L: 15 discos lisos tratados com ácido cítrico; Grupo 1R: 15 discos rugosos tratados com ácido cítrico; Grupo 2L: 15 discos lisos tratados com tetraciclina ácida; Grupo 2R: 15 discos rugosos tratados com tetraciclina ácida; Grupo 3L: 15 discos lisos tratados com EDTA; Grupo 3R: 15 discos rugosos tratados com EDTA; Grupo 4L: 15 discos lisos tratados com ácido fosfórico; Grupo 4R: 15 discos rugosos tratados com ácido fosfórico; Grupo CL: 15 discos lisos que não receberam descontaminação (controle positivo liso); Grupo CR: 15 discos rugosos que não receberam descontaminação (controle positivo rugoso); Grupo EL: 15 discos lisos que não foram contaminados (controle negativo liso) e Grupo ER: 15 discos rugosos que não foram contaminados (controle negativo rugoso). Estes discos foram implantados no subcutâneo de ratos, os quais foram sacrificados após 7, 28 ou 84 dias. Foi realizada a avaliação microscópica descritiva e quantitativa do tecido conjuntivo formado nestes ratos. Foram avaliadas as médias das espessuras das cápsulas, a densidade de fibroblastos e de neutrófilos nos 3 períodos de tempo. Os resultados mostraram diferença na densidade de neutrófilos principalmente aos 7 dias e o ácido fosfórico mostrou os melhores resultados neste período, e ao final de 84 dias todos os tratamentos apresentaram resultados similares inclusive com relação ao grupo controle contaminado. Com relação à rugosidade os discos de superfícies lisas, apresentaram menor média...


The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of treatment with citric acid, tetracycline, EDTA and phosphoric acid in titanium disks in smooth and roughened surfaces contaminated by bacterial biofilms in the connective tissue of rats. One hundred eighty titanium disks were used; 90 smooth surfaces and 90 roughened titanium surfaces, which were placed in 19 acrylic plates that were used by volunteers for 7 days. These disks were divided into 12 groups containing 15 disks each; Group 1L: 15 smooth disks were treated with citric acid; Group 1R: 15 roughened disks were treated with citric acid; Group 2L: 15 smooth disks were treated with tetracycline acid; Group 2R: 15 roughened disks were treated with tetracycline rough acid; Group 3L: 15 smooth disks were treated with EDTA; Group 3R: 15 roughened disks were treated with EDTA; Group 4L: 15 smooth disks were treated with phosphoric acid; Group 4R: 15 roughened disks were treated with phosphoric acid; Group CL: 15 smooth disks received no econtamination (smooth positive control); CR: 15 roughened disks did not receive decontamination (roughened positive control); EL: 15 smooth disks were not infected (smooth negative control) and ER: 15 roughened disks were not infected (roughened negative control). These disks were implanted subcutaneously in rats that were sacrificed after 7, 28 or 84 days. A descriptive and quantitative microscopic evaluation was performed. The average thickness of the capsules and the density of fibroblasts and neutrophils in three time periods were evaluated. The results showed differences in the density of neutrophilis mainly at 7 days and phosphoric acid showed the best results in this period, and at the end of 84 days, all treatments showed similar results even with the control group infected. In relation to the roughness, the smooth disks had a lower average capsule thickness compared with roughened disks, perhaps demonstrating an aspect of greater ....

RÉSUMÉ

This paper reports on the synthesis and characterization of two new ternary copper(II) complexes: [Cu(doxycycline)(1,10-phenanthroline)(H(2)O)(ClO(4))](ClO(4)) (1) and [Cu(tetracycline)(1,10-phenanthroline)(H(2)O)(ClO(4))](ClO(4)) (2). These compounds exhibit a distorted tetragonal geometry around copper, which is coordinated to two bidentate ligands, 1,10-phenanthroline and tetracycline or doxycyline, a water molecule, and a perchlorate ion weakly bonded in the axial positions. In both compounds, copper(II) binds to tetracyclines via the oxygen of the hydroxyl group and oxygen of the amide group at ring A and to 1,10-phenanthroline via its two heterocyclic nitrogens. We have evaluated the binding of the new complexes to DNA, their capacity to cleave it, their cytotoxic activity, and uptake in tumoral cells. The complexes bind to DNA preferentially by the major groove, and then cleave its strands by an oxidative mechanism involving the generation of ROS. The cleavage of DNA was inhibited by radical inhibitors and/or trappers such as superoxide dismutase, DMSO, and the copper(I) chelator bathocuproine. The enzyme T4 DNA ligase was not able to relegate the products of DNA cleavage, which indicates that the cleavage does not occur via a hydrolytic mechanism. Both complexes present an expressive plasmid DNA cleavage activity generating single- and double-strand breaks, under mild reaction conditions, and even in the absence of any additional oxidant or reducing agent. In the same experimental conditions, [Cu(phen)(2)](2+) is approximately 100-fold less active than our complexes. These complexes are among the most potent DNA cleavage agents reported so far. Both complexes inhibit the growth of K562 cells with the IC(50) values of 1.93 and 2.59 µmol L(-1) for compounds 1 and 2, respectively. The complexes are more active than the free ligands, and their cytotoxic activity correlates with intracellular copper concentration and the number of Cu-DNA adducts formed inside cells.

RÉSUMÉ

Experiments to monitor and characterize the kinetics of adsorption of tetracycline on chitosan particles are reported in this work. The same pseudo-order kinetics that has been widely used for describing the adsorption in systems related to wastewater purification and drug loading was used to treat the present data. As some unexpected results came out from the experiments, it was necessary a detailed deduction for this sort of kinetics to be carried out, so that approximations related to short and long times were obtained. Firstly it was shown that an apparently linear t/q(t) versus t relationship did not imply a pseudo-second-order sorption kinetics, differently of what has been repeatedly reported in the literature. It was found that this misinterpretation could be avoided by using non-linear regression. Finally, the adsorption of tetracycline on chitosan particles was analyzed, using the insights obtained from theoretical analysis, and the parameters generated were used to analyze to adsorption kinetics and to propose an adsorption mechanism.

RÉSUMÉ

A simple and sensitive methodology to simultaneously quantify tetracycline and oxytetracycline in bovine serum samples is described. The method combines the advantages of the lanthanide-sensitized luminescence (i.e., sensitivity and selectivity) with partial least-squares (PLS) analysis, and requires no previous separation steps. Due to the strong overlapping of emission and excitation spectra of the analytes and their europium complexes, the luminescence decay curve (intensity of luminescence vs. time) of analyte-Eu complex was selected to resolve mixtures of tetracycline and oxytetracycline. Partial least-squares uses the luminescence decay as discriminatory parameter and regresses the luminescence versus time onto the concentrations of standards. Using a 16-sample aqueous calibration set, 10 validation samples, 11 spiked serum bovine samples and a blank of serum were studied. The analyte recoveries from serum samples ranged from 87 to 104% for tetracycline and from 94 to 106% for oxytetracycline. The results obtained by the developed method were statistically comparable to those obtained with high performance liquid chromatography.

RÉSUMÉ

An important requirement for endodontic paste with antibiotics placed in direct contact with living tissues is biocompatibility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the paste biocompatibility prepared with zinc oxide (1.25mg), tetracycline (8mg) and thiamphenicol (26.67mg). The paste and its components were implanted separately through polyethylene sterile tubes of 10mm in length and 1.3mm in diameter, in the subcutaneous tissue of rats with the experiment control at intervals of 3, 7, 15 and 30 days. Each day 6 rats were used, being 3 of them with implant of the substances in four sites placed on the back of the animals and 3 sham animals where it was implanted the polyethylene empty tubes. The experimental animals were anesthetized in an intra-peritoneal way with ketamina and xilazina (0.75ml / g body weight). After the experimental periods, the animals were anesthetized with the same anesthetic overdose. It was held an excision biopsy of the implant area with 10 mm to the security limit included in paraffin following a plan of random histological cut and uniformlyisotropic or oriented cuts according to stereological principles, getting a statistical estimative of the relative amount of inflammatory cells or not on the test system, getting as a result the paste biocompatibility, being the zinc oxide the most toxic element for the cell quality found.

El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la biocompatibilidad de la pasta preparada con óxido del zinc (1,25mg), tetraciclina (8mg) y el tiamfenicol (26,67mg). La pasta y sus componentes fueron implantados por separado a través de tubos estériles de polietileno de 10 mm de longitud y de 1,3mm de diámetro en el tejido subcutáneo de ratas en intervalos de 3, 7, 15 y 30 días. Cada día, 6 ratas fueron implantadas en cuatro sitios ubicados en la parte posterior de los animales, 3 de ellas con el implante de las sustancias y 3 fueron implantados con los tubos de polietileno vacíos. Los animales del experimento fueron anestesiados intraperitteonealmen, con ketamina y xilasina (0,75 ml/g peso corporal). Después de los periodos experimentales, los animales fueron anestesiados con la misma sobredosis anestésica. Fue realizada una biopsia exisional del área del implante con 10 mm de límite de seguridad, luego se realizaron cortes histológico al azar uniformemente isotrópicos o orientados según los principios esteriológicos, consiguiendo un estimativo estadístico de la cantidad relativa de células inflamatorias en el sistema de prueba. Se obtuvieron resultados de la biocompatibilidad de la pasta, siendo el óxido del zinc el elemento mas tóxico según la cualidad de las células que fueron encontradas.

RÉSUMÉ

We report here the observation, for the first time, of the enhancement of Europium-Tetracycline complex emission in cholesterol solutions. This enhancement was initially observed with the addition of the enzyme cholesterol oxidase, which produces H(2)O(2), the agent driver of the Europium tetracycline complex, to the solution. However, it was found that the enzyme is not needed to enhance the luminescence. A calibration curve was determined, resulting in a simple method to measure the cholesterol quantity in a solution. This method shows that the complex can be used as a sensor to determine cholesterol in biological systems.
