ABSTRACT
SUMMARY Mirabegron is a kind of β3 adrenergic receptor agonist which is an effective drug for the treatment of overactive bladder. In this research, a UPLC-MS/MS method is developed and validated for the study of mirabegron pharmacokinetic in rats. A protein precipitation method is applied for sample preparation with acetonitrile. m/z 397.3→379.6, m/z 326.4→121.0 for mirabegron, tolterodine (IS), respectively in the positive ion mode was performed for quantitation. The method is reliable and reproducible in our study (intra-day precision≤11.06%, inter-day precision≤11.43%) with concentration curves linear from 5 to 2500 ng/mL(R2>0.999). Stability studies demonstrated that mirabegron was stable under a variety of storage conditions. This method was successfully applied for determining mirabegron in rats after oral and intravenous administration.
RESUMO Mirabegron é um tipo de agonista do receptor adrenérgico beta 3 que demonstra eficácia no tratamento de bexiga hiperativa. Nesta pesquisa, o método UPLC-MS/MS é desenvolvido e validado para o estudo da farmacocinética mirabegron em ratos. Um método de precipitação de proteínas é aplicado para a preparação de amostras com acetonitrilo. 397.3 → 379.6 M / Z, M / Z 326.4 → 121.0 para mirabegron, tolterodina (IS), respectivamente, para o íon positivo foi realizado para quantificação. O método é fiável e reprodutível em nosso estudo (precisão intradia ≤ 11,06%; precisão entredia ≤ 11.43%), com curvas de concentração linear de 5 a 2 ng/ml (R2 > 0,999). Estudos de estabilidade demonstraram que mirabegron permanece estável sob uma variedade de condições de armazenamento. Este método foi aplicado com sucesso para a determinação de mirabegron em ratos após administração oral e intravenosa.

The toxicity studies were conducted on the fish Channa punctata (Bloch) by employing static and continuous flow through systems, for the toxicant butachlor (technical grade+) and its commercial formulation+ (machete 50% EC). The LC50 values are 297.89 ppb and 247.46 ppb for 24 hr and 48 hr in static for technical and 636.45 and 546.09 for machete. In continuous flow through the values are 270.05, 233.52 to the technical and 567.85 and 481.49 respectively for machete. The tissues show qualitative accumulation and were quantitatively analysed by gas liquid chromatography (GLC).
