Preliminary studies on changes in the amount of tryptophan metabolites in human glioma tissues.

BACKGROUND: We have developed and validated methods for the determination of three major tryptophan metabolites metabolized by the kynurenine pathway, namely kynurenine (KYN), 3-hydroxykynurenine (3-HK), and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-HAA). KYN and 3-HK were determined using RP-HPLC-UV, and 3-HAA using RP-HPLC-FL. We then developed a comparative method based on CE-UV. The developed methods were validated and 36 samples of human brain glioma tissue homogenates were assayed in all 4 grades of malignancy, and the concentration levels of assayed metabolites were compared with available clinical data. RESULTS: Each of the methods is characterized by high precision, accuracy and repeatability, and the determined LOQ values indicate the possibility of performing quantitative analysis on the available samples of human glioma tumors (36 samples in grades G1-G4). The concentration values of selected metabolites obtained using HPLC methods were subjected to statistical analysis and preliminary clinical data processing. We found statistically significant differences in the concentrations of KYN, 3-HK and 3-HAA between the various grades of the disease, and characterized these differences more precisely by means of the Dunn-Bonferroni post hoc test. We did not find that the patient's environment or habits significantly affected the metabolites concentration of the study samples population. In addition, we showed a high positive correlation between KYN, 3-HK and 3-HAA, which appears to be a characteristic that describes metabolic changes of Trp in relation to KYN, 3-HK and 3-HAA, and indicates potential diagnostic value. SIGNIFICANCE: The preliminary studies carried out contribute new knowledge on the molecular basis of human brain glioma. They also provide valuable information useful for the development of glioma diagnostics, differentiation of disease grades and assessment of the patient's condition. The obtained relationships between metabolite concentrations and the grade of malignancy of the disease and correlations between metabolite concentrations constitute the basis for further broader biochemical and clinical analysis.

Impact of traditional and innovative cooking techniques on Italian black rice (Oryza sativa L., Artemide cv) composition.

Due to its high polyphenol content, black rice plays a significant role in good nutrition; however, these antioxidant compounds are affected by heat treatments required for the rice consumption. The aim of this work was to investigate how cooking affects the composition of Artemide black rice, comparing innovative methods, such as sous vide, with traditional domestic techniques (risotto and pilaf). Proteins and ashes were not affected by cooking, except for pilaf rice, where a 42 % ashes decrease was observed; fiber content increased after all cooking methods, reaching a 29 % increase in the risotto. Antioxidant activity, total polyphenols, anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins were reduced on average of 40 %, 34 %, 43 % and 39 %, respectively. Individual anthocyanins decreased, while phenolic acids and other flavonoids presented different behaviours, also depending if considered in their free or bound form. Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside was reduced up to 56 % in the sous vide cooked rice at 99 °C, and only by 45 % and 37 % in the risotto and sous vide cooked rice at 89 °C, respectively. Traditional risotto preparation and the innovative sous vide cooking at 89 °C also maintained the highest antioxidant polyphenols content, saving 63 % of the antioxidant activity in respect to the raw black rice. Concluding, these last techniques can be suggested for a better preservation of bioactive compounds.

Stability Indicating Method Development and Validation for the Estimation of Bempedoic Acid by RP-HPLC.

BACKGROUND: Bempedoic acid (BEM) belongs to a category of drugs known as Adenosine triphosphate-citrate Lyase (ACL) inhibitors. It is a prodrug with intracellular activation that is administered orally. Bempedoic acid is used to treat existing atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, mainly hypercholesterolemia. METHODS: For the stability-indicating assay, the HPLC method was employed using a Kromasil 100-5-C8 column (100 mm × 4.6 mm), a UV detector set at 230 nm, and a mobile phase comprising a 70:30 v/v mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1% Orthophosphoric Acid (OPA) buffer. The method was operated at an ambient temperature with a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The method developed has been statistically validated according to ICH guidelines. RESULTS: The stability-indicating method was executed using a Kromasil 100-5-C8 (100 mm × 4.6 mm) column at a 1.0 mL/min flow rate. A mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1% Orthophosphoric Acid (OPA) buffer in a 70:30 v/v ratio made up the mobile phase. BEM's retention times were discovered to be 1.88 minutes each. The temperature was kept at room temperature. 234 nm was the ideal wavelength for BEM. According to ICH criteria, the approach developed has undergone statistical validation. BEM's % RSD was discovered to be 0.6, respectively. For BEM, the % recovery was determined to be 100.0%. Regression models for bempedoic acid yielded LoD and LoQ values of 3.3 and 10.1 g/mL, respectively. The method showed good reproducibility and recovery with a % RSD less than 2. Studies on forced degradation confirmed the method's capacity to indicate stability in the presence of stress conditions, such as acid, basic, peroxide, UV, heat, and humidity. Both the retention times and the run time were shortened. CONCLUSION: In accordance with ICH Q2 (R1) guidelines, this method was successfully tested with HPLC to confirm the chemical structures of newly produced degradation products of bempedoic acid.

The flow rate was set at 0.7 mL/min, and the detection was performed at 205 nm and 25 °C. The method exhibits good linearity for capsaicin (0.05-70.0 µg/mL), methyl salicylate (0.05-100.0 µg/mL), and diclofenac diethylamine (0.05-100.0 µg/mL), with low LOD values (0.0249, 0.0271, and 0.0038 for capsaicin, methyl salicylate, and diclofenac diethylamine, respectively). The RSD% values were below 3.0%, indicating good precision. The overall greenness score of the method was 0.61, reflecting its environmentally friendly nature. The developed RP-HPLC method was successfully applied to analyze Omni Hot Gel® pharmaceutical formulation and rabbit skin permeation samples.

Cutting-edge HPLC and MCR techniques for synchronically quantifying anticholinergic drugs in the presence of C12 and C14 homologs: Robust application to green and white chemistry.

Green and white chemistry are vital to revolutionizing the chemical industry through their unparalleled potential to enhance sustainability and efficiency. In this study, nine sustainability tools of both green and white metrics, including green analytical procedure index (GAPI), ComplexGAPI, analytical greenness, analytical greenness metric for sample preparation, Analytical Eco-Scale (ESA), analytical method greenness score, high-performance liquid chromatography- environmental assessment tool (HPLC-EAT), analytical method volume intensity, and blue applicability grade index (BAGI), have been developed for appraising environmental friendliness for both innovative and straightforward mean centering of ratio spectra (MCR) and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) strategies utilized for concurrent analysis and separation of cyclopentolate (CYC) and C12 and C14 homologs of benzalkonium chloride (BNZ) in pure and ophthalmic solution. The mobile phase, formed of buffer phosphate and acetonitrile (35:65, v/v), was adjusted to pH 6.3, and 215-nm UV detection was used. The experimental flow rate was 2.0 mL min-1, and the analytical column was L11 Inertsil Ph-3 (150 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm). All sequences were run at 25°C in the column oven. The MCR approach effectively resolved the drug's spectral overlapping. CYC and BNZ employed this approach at 227.5 and 220.4 nm, respectively. As part of the HPLC analysis, an isocratic method was employed with phosphate buffer and acetonitrile in the mobile phase at 35:65. A correlation coefficient greater than 0.999 was observed between the calibration curves for the HPLC and MCR methods in the ranges of 20-320 µg mL-1 and 5-30 µg mL-1 for all drugs. The technique yields excellent primary recovery rates, ranging from 97.2% to 100.5%. The recommended approach has been validated according to International Council for Harmonization guidelines.

BACKGROUND: The present study aimed to evaluate the anti-hypertensive and anti-diabetic activities from biologically active peptides produced by fermented sheep milk with Lacticaseibacillus paracasei M11 (MG027695), as well as to purify and characterize the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory and anti-diabetic peptides produced from fermented sheep milk. RESULTS: After 48 h of fermentation at 37 °C, sheep milk demonstrated significant changes in anti-diabetic effects and ACE-I effects, with inhibition percentages observed for ACE inhibition (76.32%), α-amylase (70.13%), α-glucosidase (70.11%) and lipase inhibition (68.22%). The highest level of peptides (9.77 mg mL-1) was produced by optimizing the growth conditions, which included an inoculation rate of 2.5% and a 48 h of incubation period. The comparison of molecular weight distributions among protein fractions was conducted through sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis, whereas spots were separated using 2D gel electrophoresis according to both the molecular weight and pH. Peptide characterization with ultra-filtration membranes at 3 and 10 kDa allowed the study to assess molecular weight-based separation. Nitric oxide generated by lipopolysaccharide and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines in RAW 264.7 immune cells were both inhibited by sheep milk fermented with M11. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was employed to assess changes in functional groups after fermentation, providing insights into the structural changes occurring during fermentation. CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrates that fermentation with L. paracasei (M11) led to significant changes in fermented sheep milk, enhancing its bioactive properties, notably in terms of ACE inhibition and anti-diabetic activities, and the generation of peptides with bioactive properties has potential health benefits. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Formulation of Saxagliptin Oral Films: Optimization, Physicochemical Characterization, In-Vivo Assessment, and In-Vitro Real-Time Release Monitoring via a Novel Polyaniline Nanoparticles-Based Solid-Contact Screen Printed Ion-Selective Electrode.

Oral dispersible films have received broad interest due to fast drug absorption and no first-path metabolism, leading to high bioavailability and better patient compliance. Saxagliptin (SXG) is an antidiabetic drug that undergoes first-path metabolism, resulting in a less active metabolite, so the development of SXG oral dispersible films (SXG-ODFs) improves SXG bioavailability. The formula optimisation included a response surface experimental design and the impact of three formulation factors, the type and concentration of polymer and plasticiser concentration on in-vitro disintegration time and folding endurance. Two optimised SXG-ODFs prepared using either polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose were investigated. SXG-ODFs prepared with PVA demonstrated a superior rapid disintegration time, ranging from 17 to 890 s, with the fastest disintegration time recorded at 17 s. These short durations can be attributed to the hydrophilic nature of PVA, facilitating rapid hydration and disintegration upon contact with saliva. Additionally, PVA-based films displayed remarkable folding endurance, surpassing 200 folds without rupture, indicating flexibility and stability. The high tensile strength of PVA-based films further underscores their robust mechanical properties, with tensile strength values reaching up to 4.53 MPa. SXG exhibits a UV absorption wavelength of around 212 nm, posing challenges for traditional quantitative spectrophotometric analysis, so a polyaniline nanoparticles-based solid-contact screen-printed ion-selective electrode (SP-ISE) was employed for the determination of SXG release profile effectively in comparison to HPLC. SP-ISE showed a better real-time release profile of SXG-ODFs, and the optimised formula showed lower blood glucose levels than commercial tablets.

RP-HPLC-CAD method for the rapid analysis of lipids used in lipid nanoparticles derived from dual centrifugation.

The use of lipids as suitable excipients for drug carrier systems has been established for years. Liposomes or lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) in general have been shown capable of delivering both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs. The Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting vaccines have significantly increased interest in the potential for these lipid-based systems, which can carry different types of therapeutic RNAs. LNPs used for the transfection of RNA are usually a multi-component mixture of phospholipids and other lipids. Essential components are positively charged or ionizable lipids such as DOTAP or SM-102, but also uncharged helper lipids such as cholesterol, DOPE, DSPC, DMG-PEG2000 or DSPE-PEG2000. Due to the differences in charge, simultaneous detection is a challenge. Here, we present a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography charged-aerosol-detector method (RP-HPLC-CAD method) using a C-18 column for the simultaneous determination of charged and uncharged lipids. Our method has been validated according to the ICH-Q2 (R2) guideline for accuracy, precision, specificity and working range, including the limit of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ), as well as the calibration range. We were able to show satisfactory results in both precision and accuracy. The working range also shows great potential with a calibration range from 9.375 to 1000 µg/ml, LODs <1.85 µg/ml and LOQs <6.16 µg/ml. This method represents a fast and reproducible procedure for quantifying the lipids mentioned. In combination with the novel approach for the production of LNPs using dual centrifugation (DC), it offers the possibility of extremely rapid production of RNA-loaded LNPs, and the immediate analysis for their lipid components.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to develop a simple, accurate, and precise method for the estimation of bupropion and dextromethorphan in a fixed-dose combination of tablets and robust high-performance liquid chromatography for assay analysis of such a fixed combination. Materials and Methods: Chromatographic analysis was performed and separations were achieved on a Denali C18 150 × 4.6 mm, 5 micron using a mobile phase composition of ortho-phosphoric acid and acetonitrile in the ratio of 600:400 (v/v), flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, injection volume is 10 µL and run time of 6 min in isocratic elution. Ultraviolet (UV) detection was performed at a wavelength of 221 nm. The temperature was maintained at 30 °C. Well-resolved peaks were observed with a high number of theoretical plates, lower tailing factor, and reproducible relative retention time. The method was validated, and all validation parameters were found to be within the acceptance limits. Results: A simple, accurate, and precise method has been developed for estimating bupropion and dextromethorphan in a fixed dose combination of tablets. The optimized method included the following parameters: column temperature of 30 °C, 40% acetonitrile as the mobile phase, and flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Retention times were 2.25 min and 3.12 min for bupropion and dextromethorphan, respectively. The method was found to be linear in the range of 17.5-105 µg/mL [for R2 < 0.999) and 7.5-45 µg/mL (for R2 > 0.999] for bupropion and dextromethorphan, respectively. Both active pharmaceutical ingredients dissolved more than 90% within 5 min. Conclusion: The current study describes a new, simple, reliable, and economical elution reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography method for estimating bupropion and dextromethorphan in a fixed combination tablet dosage form. The forced degradation studies were conducted using several degradation conditions such as acidic, alkali, oxidation, thermal, UV, and neutral conditions; the proposed method was effectively employed from the resolution of sample peaks. To the best of our knowledge, no such detailed and stability-indicating method has been reported for a fixed tablet dosage form.

Development of RP HPLC-PDA method for simultaneous quantitative analysis of Inoscavin A and Meshimakobnol A and application on some Phellinus mushroom species.

Phellinus igniarius, a medicinal mushroom containing many active ingredients with health benefits, can be applied in functional food. At present, the quantification of the main active ingredients from higher fungi (Ganoderma, Phellinus…) materials from different growing sources is a mandatory requirement to standardize the input resources of pharmaceutical and food production. Our study's aims are to perfect the RP HPLC-PDA method for quantitative analysis of Inoscavin A and Meshimakobnol A which are two main active ingredients present in Phellinus mushroom. In this analytical method, a C18-HPLC column and the mixture of methanol and formic acid solutions (pH = 2.2) are used to analyze and elute the active substances with the column activity parameters being the concentration gradient. This perfect method was tested for system suitability, repeatability, intermediate precision, recovery, and linear curve calibration to validate the method. After validation, the perfected RP HPLC-PDA method was applied to analyze eight samples of Phellinus and three samples of Ganoderma mushroom category. This method can be the basis for classifying between Phellinus and some other medicinal mushrooms.

New methods for resolution of hydroxychloroquine by forming diastereomeric salt and adding chiral mobile phase agent on RP-HPLC.

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), 2-([4-([7-Chloro-4-quinolyl]amino)pentyl]ethylamino)ethanol, exhibited significant biological activity, while its side effects cannot be overlooked. The RP-HPLC enantio-separation was investigated for cost-effective and convenient optical purity analysis of HCQ. The thermodynamic resolution of Rac-HCQ, driven by enthalpy and entropy, was achieved on the C18 column using Carboxymethyl-ß-cyclodextrin (CM-ß-CD) as the chiral mobile phase agent (CMPA). The effects of CCM-ß-CD, pH, and triethylamine (TEA) V% on the enantio-separation process were explored. Under the optimum conditions at 24°C, the retention times for the two enantiomers were t R 1 = 29.39 min $$ {t}_{R1}=29.39\ \min $$ and t R 2 = 32.42 min $$ {t}_{R2}=32.42\ \min $$ , resulting in R s = 1.87 $$ {R}_s=1.87 $$ . The resolution via diastereomeric salt formation of Rac-HCQ was developed to obtain the active pharmaceutical ingredient of single enantiomer S-HCQ. Di-p-Anisoyl-L-Tartaric Acid (L-DATA) was proved effective as the resolution agent for Rac-HCQ. Surprisingly, it was found that refluxing time was a key fact affecting the resolution efficiency, which meant the kinetic dominate during the process of the resolution. Four factors-solvent volume, refluxing time, filtration temperature, and molar ratio-were optimized using the single-factor method and the response surface method. Two cubic models were established, and the reliability was subsequently verified. Under the optimal conditions, the less soluble salt of 2L-DATA:S-HCQ was obtained with a yield of 96.9% and optical purity of 63.0%. The optical purity of this less soluble salt increases to 99.0% with a yield of 74.2% after three rounds recrystallization.

The densitometric approach was conducted utilizing HPTLC 60 F254 silica gel plates, and a developing system of benzene: ethanol: acetic acid (7.5:1:0.25, by volume) and detection was done at 250.0 nm. The developed approaches were evaluated regarding the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) instructions. The calibration curves of both techniques were constructed with linearity ranges of (5-100) µg/mL and (2-10) µg /band, for HPLC and densitometric determination, consecutively. Teriflunomide was exposed to base and acid hydrolysis, oxidation using H2O2 and finally, thermal degradation as stated in ICH guidelines. The degradation product structures' elucidation was achieved through LC-MS.

Development and characterisation of buccal dispersible film, syrup and effervescent granules of extemporaneous antigout remedy.

Homemade medicinal remedies used to treat both acute and chronic ailments for centuries need to be transformed into modern evidence-based dosage forms. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop buccal dispersible film, syrup and effervescent granules of an extemporaneous antigout homemade remedy. The dosage forms were prepared using holistic remedy (HR) as an active entity and excipients masking disagreeable features. The dosage forms and HR were subjected to physicochemical evaluation, and standardised by a reversed-phase HPLC method using chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, vanillin, and ferulic acid as analytical standards. The standardised dosage forms were investigated for antigout activity using an appropriate model. The dosage forms were found to be physically elegant and phytochemically aligned with HR. The developed dosage forms contained the selected markers and possessed antigout activity. Hence, these standardised and evidence-based dosage forms may have wider acceptance in the market compared to HR.

Novel RP-HPLC method for estimation of a newly developed combination of tizanidine and etoricoxib in rat plasma: Eight criteria for greens evaluation.

A novel environmentally friendly reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method has been effectively validated for simultaneously measuring a prospective conjunction of tizanidine (TIZ) and etoricoxib (ETC), the combined medicine, in rat plasma. The technique employs diclofenac potassium as the internal standard, guaranteeing dependable and precise outcomes. This study aimed to assess the impact of the suggested combination therapy on treating inflammation resulting from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a rat model. The procedure was performed using an Agilent series 1200 model HPLC apparatus. The chromatographic conditions consist of isocratic elution mode, C18 column with dimensions of 150 mm × 4.6 mm × 5 µm, flow rate of 1.5 mL/min, wavelength of 230 nm, temperature of 50°C, and injection volume of 10 µL. The elution was performed using a mobile phase consisting of a phosphate buffer with a pH of 3.5 and acetonitrile in a ratio of 80:20 v/v. Calibration curves were conducted for TIZ and ETC within the 1-50 µg/mL range, demonstrating linear trends with R2 values over 0.999. The effectiveness and eco-friendliness of the proposed method were evaluated using eight separate environmentally conscious metrics. The addition of TIZ and ETC to arthritic rodents amplified these effects significantly. Furthermore, TIZ and ETC significantly reduced serum levels in arthritic rodents, and safety investigations revealed normal complete blood count, liver, and renal functions. TIZ and ETC appear to have antiarthritic, anti-inflammatory, and safe combinations, making them viable future treatment options for RA that are also safe and efficacious. Following validation by United States Food and Drug Administration (US-FDA) rules, all goods met the criteria.

Cross-column density functional theory-based quantitative structure-retention relationship model development powered by machine learning.

Quantitative structure-retention relationship (QSRR) modeling has emerged as an efficient alternative to predict analyte retention times using molecular descriptors. However, most reported QSRR models are column-specific, requiring separate models for each high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system. This study evaluates the potential of machine learning (ML) algorithms and quantum mechanical (QM) descriptors to develop QSRR models that can predict retention times across three different reversed-phase HPLC columns under varying conditions. Four machine learning methods-partial least squares (PLS) regression, ridge regression (RR), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting (GB)-were compared on a dataset of 360 retention times for 15 aromatic analytes. Molecular descriptors were calculated using density functional theory (DFT). Column characteristics like particle size and pore size and experimental conditions like temperature and gradient time were additionally used as descriptors. Results showed that the GB-QSRR model demonstrated the best predictive performance, with Q2 of 0.989 and root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) of 0.749 min on the test set. Feature analysis revealed that solvation energy (SE), HOMO-LUMO energy gap (∆E HOMO-LUMO), total dipole moment (Mtot), and global hardness (η) are among the most influential predictors for retention time prediction, indicating the significance of electrostatic interactions and hydrophobicity. Our findings underscore the efficiency of ensemble methods, GB and RF models employing non-linear learners, in capturing local variations in retention times across diverse experimental setups. This study emphasizes the potential of cross-column QSRR modeling and highlights the utility of ML models in optimizing chromatographic analysis.

The validation results are system suitability (%RSD-0.76), inter-day precision (%RSD 0.14-0.29), intraday precision (%RSD 0.08-0.34), accuracy (%RSD 0.16-0.96), and robustness (%RSD 0.16-0.35). In different intended conditions, four peaks are in 1 N HCl, two peaks in 1 N NaOH, three peaks in 10% H2O2 (1hr), and one peak in neutral. CONCLUSION: Toremifene, a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM), Drug pharmacokinetic properties and receptor binding affinity results are helpful in designing the analytical method. Developing the RP-HPLC-PDA method is found to be novel, simple and precise. It could be used for testing toremifene in bulk and pharmaceutical tablet dosage forms in quality control, as well as stability tests.
