Determination of Solubility and Apparent Oil/Water Partition Coefficient of Sitafloxacin / 医药导报

Objective To determine the solubility and apparent oil/ water partition coefficient of sitafloxacin in different solvents. Methods High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used. The column was Dikma Diamonsil C18 (2) (4. 6 mmí250 mm,5 μm). The mobile phase was 0. 05 mol·L-1 KH2 PO4 solution (pH was adjusted with H3 PO4 to 2. 4)-acetonitrile (7030). The column temperature was set at room temperature. The flow rate was 1. 0 mL·min-1 . The detection wavelength was 295 nm and the injection volume was 10 μL. The solubility of sitafloxacin and the apparent oil/ water partition coefficient at pH 2. 0,4. 3,5. 8,6. 6,7. 4,8. 0,10. 0 and 11. 2 were determined. Results The equilibrium solubility of sitafloxacin in water was 0. 44 mg·mL-1 and the apparent oil/ water partition coefficient was 0. 23 (lgP= -0. 64) at (37±2) ℃ . Sitafloxacin has the lowest equilibrium solubility (0. 13 mg·mL-1 ) and the highest apparent oil/ water partition coefficient in pH7. 4 buffer solution system. At pH>10 and pH<5. 8,the solubility of sitafloxacin increased obviously and apparent oil/ water partition coefficient decreased. Conclusion Sitafloxacin is insoluble in water and also poorly soluble in oil,but its solubility could be improved significantly in acidic or alkaline solution.

Clinical Observation of the effect of Shenmai injection on congestive heart failure / 中国基层医药

Objective To observe the effect of Shenmai injection on congestive heart failure(CHF) and the effect on thyroid hormone as well as medicine security. Methods 52 patieits with CHF were enrolled,Shenmai injection was used with regular western medicine in the treatment. And observed its effect and test serum thyroid hormone: TSH,T3 ,T4 ,rT3. Another 50 CHF patients were enrolled as a control. Results The results of observation were that 25 cases were very effective,23 were effective,4 had no effect and the total effective rate was 92%. The results of control group were that 21 were very effective, 16 were effective, 13 had no effect and the total effective rate was 74%. The differences between the two groups were significant (P > 0.05). By comparing two thyroid hormone T3, T4, rT3, the observation T3 and T4 was obviously higher than the control. rT3 was lower than the control. Conclusion Shenmai injection could efficiently improve the heart function of CHF,cure arrhythmin and correct the illness caused by thyroid hormone.
