A novel chiral sensing platform, employing silver nanoparticles capped with N‐acetyl‐L‐cysteine (NALC‐Ag NPs), was utilized for the discrimination of L‐tyrosine and D‐tyrosine. This nanosensor, which could be used as an optical sensing unit and chiral probe, was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) spectroscopy. After the proposed sensing platform interacted with L‐tyrosine and D‐tyrosine, a decreased resonance scattering signal was only obtained from L‐tyrosine. This phenomenon offered a useful assay for the selectivity and determination of L‐tyrosine with the RRS method. The linear range and detection limit of L‐tyrosine were 0.2838–20.0 µg⋅mL‐1 and 0.0860 µg⋅mL‐1, respectively. In addition, experimental factors such as acidity, interaction time, and the concentration of enantiomers were investigated with regard to the effect on enantioselective interaction.

In this paper, a simple and novel method for the determination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as a resonance light scattering (RLS) probe, is proposed. Under optimized conditions, there existed linear relationships between the enhancing RLS intensity of the system and the concentrations of PCBs in the range 8.0 × 10?8?1.0 × 10?6 g mL?1 for 2,4,4′‐trichlorbiphenyl (PCB28), 9.0 × 10?8?1.0 × 10?6 g mL?1 for 2,2′,5,5′‐tetrachlorbiphenyl (PCB52) and 4.0 × 10?8?1.0 × 10?6 g mL?1 for 3,3′,4,4′‐tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB77). The corresponding detection limits (S/N = 3) were 2.6 × 10?8 g mL?1 for PCB28, 3.3 × 10?8 g mL?1 for PCB52 and 6.3 × 10?9 g mL?1 for PCB77, respectively. Finally, the mechanism of RLS enhancement was also studied. The results indicated that PCBs were adsorbed on the surface of AgNPs to form larger AgNP–PCB aggregates, resulting in the RLS enhancement of the system.

A new method using chemiluminescence (CL) detection has been developed for the simple determination of ketotifen fumarate (KF). The method is based on the catalytic effect of KF in the CL reaction of tris(1,10 phenanthroline)ruthenium(II), Ru(phen)32+, with Ce(IV) in sulfuric acid medium. The CL response was detected using a lab‐made chemiluminometer. Effects of chemical variables were investigated and under optimum conditions, the CL intensity was proportional to the concentration of the drug over the range 0.34‐34.00 µg mL?1 KF. The limit of detection (S/N=3) was 0.09 µg mL?1. Effects of common ingredients were investigated and the method was applied successfully for determining KF in pharmaceutical formulations and human plasma. The percent of relative standard deviation (n=11) at level of 3.4 µg mL?1 of KF was 4.6% and the minimum sampling rate was 70 samples per hour. The possible CL mechanism is proposed based on the kinetic characteristic of the CL reaction, CL spectrum, UV‐Vis and phosphorescence spectra. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Sensitivity to azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl of 80 single‐spore isolates of Magnaporthe oryzae was determined. The EC50 values for azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl in inhibiting mycelial growth of the 80 M. oryzae isolates were 0.006–0.056 and 0.024–0.287 µg mL?1, respectively. The EC50 values for azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl in inhibiting conidial germination of the M. oryzae populations were 0.004–0.051 and 0.012–0.105 µg mL?1, respectively. There was significant difference in sensitivity to azoxystrobin or kresoxim‐methyl between the tested isolates representing differential sensitivity to carbendazim (MBC) and kitazin P (IBP); however, there was no correlation between this difference in sensitivity to azoxystrobin or kresoxim‐methyl and sensitivity to MBC or IBP, indicating that there was no cross‐resistance between azoxystrobin or kresoxim‐methyl and MBC or IBP. In the protective and curative experiments, kresoxim‐methyl exhibited higher protective and curative activity than azoxystrobin when applied at 150 and 250 µg mL?1 accordingly, while azoxystrobin exhibited stronger inhibitory activity against M. oryzae isolates than that of kresoxim‐methyl in the in vitro test. The results of field experiments also suggested that both azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl at 187.5 g.a.i. ha?1 gave over 73% control efficacy in both sites, exhibiting excellent activity against rice blast. Taken together, azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl could be a good substitute for MBC or IBP for controlling rice blast in China, but should be carefully used as they were both at‐risk.  相似文献

Two simple, rapid, sensitive and precise spectrophotometric and spectrofluorimetric methods were developed for the determination of indacaterol maleate in bulk powder and capsules. Both methods were based on the direct measurement of the drug in methanol. In the spectrophotometric merthod (Method I) the absorbance was measured at 259 nm. The absorbance‐concentration plot was rectilinear over the range 1.0–10.0 µg mL?1 with a lower detection limit (LOD) of 0.078 µg mL?1 and lower quantification limit (LOQ) of 0.238 µg mL?1. Meanwhile in the spectrofluorimetric method (Method II) the native fluorescence was measured at 358 nm after excitation at 258 nm. The fluorescence‐concentration plot was rectilinear over the range of 1.0–40.0 ng mL?1 with an LOD of 0.075 ng mL?1and an LOQ of 0.226 ng mL?1. The proposed methods were successfully applied to the determination of indacaterol maleate in capsules with average percent recoveries ± RSD% of 99.94 ± 0.96 for Method I and 99.97 ± 0.81 for Method II. In addition, the proposed methods were extended to a content uniformity test according to the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) guidelines and were accurate, precise for the capsules studied with acceptance value 3.98 for Method I and 2.616 for Method II.

In order to investigate virulence enhancement of entomopathogenic fungi, a Beauveria bassiana-sourced Pr1 protease (CDEP-1) was expressed by a methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris and then used as an additive to three gradient sprays of B. bassiana strain (Bb0062) onto apterous green peach aphid Myzus persicae adults in six bioassays. The resultant data fit well to a time–concentration–mortality model. Generally, the LC50 estimates of the fungal pathogen against the aphid species decreased with increasing CDEP-1 concentrations from 0 to 100 µg mL?1. The LC50s on days 5–7 after spray were reduced by 1.5–2.5-fold at the concentrations of 20–100 µg mL?1. However, sprays of 20–100 µg CDEP-1 mL?1 aqueous solution alone had no significant effect on aphid mortality compared to water spray only. Neither did inclusion of inactivated CDEP-1 at a concentration of 50 µg mL?1 affect significantly the fungal virulence to aphids. Our results confirm for the first time that the cuticle-degrading protease CDEP-1 enhanced fungal virulence due to acceleration of conidial germination and cuticle penetration. This suggests a new approach to utilising the protease in microbial control.  相似文献

A high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was established to detect Xeljanz enantiomers in active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and tablets. The separation was achieved on a Chiralpak IC column using a mobile phase of hexane‐ethanol‐diethylamine (65:35:0.1, v/v). The detection wavelength was 289 nm. The peak areas and the enantiomer concentrations in the range of 0.15–2.25 μg?mL?1 were in high linearity, with correlation coefficients higher than 0.999. The recoveries were 86.44% at the concentrations of 7.5, 18.75, and 37.5 μg?mL?1. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 0.042 and 0.14 μg?mL?1, respectively. This HPLC method is suitable for detecting the enantiomers of Xeljanz in its APIs and tablets. Chirality 27:235–238, 2015. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.  相似文献

The leaves of Cinnamomum tamala Linn. (CT) (Lauraceae) clinically used in Ayurveda as antidiabetic and diuretic, but no reports are available towards immunomodulating property. Its hexane fraction (CTH) was orally given to rats for 10 days and delayed type of hypersensitivity (DTH), antibody producton against sheep red blood cells (SRBCs), mitotic index in bone marrow cells and concanavalin A (Con A) mediated proliferation of lymphocytes were assessed. Further on 30 days treatment, change in body weight (BW), spleen weight, thymus weight, bone marrow cellularity and hematological changes were observed. It inhibited significantly the DTH response (IC50 1475 ± 57.19 mg kg?1 BW), antibody production, suppressed mitotic index in bone marrow cells along with the suppression of lymphocyte proliferation against Con A (IC50 63.33 ± 1.95 µg mL?1). In all experiments, cyclophasphamide and dexamethasone had been used as reference drug for in vivo and in vitro studies, respectively. On 30 days treatment, the CTH (800 mg kg?1 BW and above) significantly suppressed growth rate, increase of spleen and thymus weight and low bone marrow cellularity. In hematological examination, it inhibited total white blood cell and lymphocytes count and increased per cent of polymorphs. Thus, it could be suggested that the fraction possesses immunosuppressive property at doses, higher than 800 mg kg?1 BW in rats. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

A chemiluminescent method using flow injection (FI) was investigated for rapid and sensitive determination of enalapril maleate and atenolol, which are used in the treatment of hypertension. The method is based on the sensitizing effect of these drugs on the Ce(IV)–sulfite reaction. The different experimental parameters affecting the chemiluminescence (CL) intensity were carefully studied and incorporated into the procedure. The method permitted the determination of 0.01–3.0 µg mL?1 of enalapril maleate in bulk form with correlation coefficient r = 0.99993, lower limit of detection (LOD) 0.0025 µg mL?1 (S/N = 2) and lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) 0.01 µg mL?1. The linearity range of atenolol in bulk form was 0.01–2.0 µg mL?1 (r = 0.99989) with LOD of 0.0003 µg mL?1 (S/N = 2) and LOQ of 0.01 µg mL?1. In biological fluids the linearity range of enalapril maleate was 0.1–2.0 µg mL?1 in both urine and serum, and for atenolol the linearity range was 0.1–1.0 µg mL?1 in both urine and serum. The method was also applied to the determination of the drugs in their pharmaceutical preparations. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

We report a flow‐injection biosensor system with a capacitive transducer for assay and quality control of human immunoglobulin G (hIgG). The sensing platform is based on self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) of carboxylic acid terminated alkyl‐thiols with covalently attached concanavalin A. The electrochemical characteristics of the sensor surface were assessed by cyclic voltammetry using a permeable redox couple (potassium ferricyanide). The developed biosensor proved capable of performing a sensitive label‐free assay of hIgG with a detection limit of 1.0 µg mL?1. The capacitance response depended linearly on hIgG concentration over the range from 5.0 to 100 µg mL?1, in a logarithmic plot. Typical measurements were performed in 15 min and up to 18 successive assays were achieved without significant loss of sensitivity using a single electrode. In addition, the biosensor can detect hIgG aggregates with concentrations as low as 0.01% of the total hIgG content (5.0 µg mL?1). Hence, it represents a potential post‐size‐exclusion chromatography–UV (post‐SEC–UV) binding assay for in‐process quality control of hIgG, which cannot be detected by SEC–UV singly at concentrations below 0.3% of the total hIgG content.

Baseline sensitivity and efficacy of thifluzamide in Rhizoctonia solani   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Thifluzamide is a SDHI (succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor) fungicide, which interferes with succinate ubiquinone reductase in the mitochondrial electron transport chain of fungi. Presently, jinggangmycin is the major fungicide extensively used for the control of rice sheath blight caused by Rhizoctonia solani and resistance to jinggangmycin was first reported to occur in China. A total of 128 isolates of R. solani from Anhui Province of China were characterised for the baseline sensitivity to thifluzamide. The isolates were very sensitive to thifluzamide and the baseline sensitivity curve was unimodal with an average EC50 value of 0.058 ± 0.012 µg mL?1. However, EC50 values of boscalid (another SDHI fungicide) for inhibition of mycelial growth of 22 arbitrarily selected R. solani isolates ranged from 1.89 to 2.68 µg mL?1. Thifluzamide applied at 110 µg mL?1 exhibited excellent protective and curative activity against rice sheath blight and provided 81.1–91.0% protective or curative control efficacy. In field trials in 2010 and 2011, control efficacies of thifluzamide at 82 g.a.i ha?1 15 and 30 days after second application were 84.2% and 86.7%, respectively, suggesting excellent activity against sheath blight. There was a statistically significant difference in the efficacy between thifluzamide and boscalid or jinggangmycin. These results suggested that thifluzamide should be a good alternative fungicide to jinggangmycin for the control of rice sheath blight.  相似文献

Clotrimazole (CTZ) and cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complexes having improved apparent water solubility were obtained from phase solubility diagrams. β‐CD (1.5% w/w) and hydroxypropyl‐β‐CD (40% w/w) offered poor CTZ solubility enhancements (12 and 384 times, respectively). Unexpectedly, the apparent solubility of CTZ was 9980 times increased from 0.4 µg.mL?1 (1.42 μM) without CD to 4.89 mg.mL?1 (14.9 mM) using randomly‐methylated β‐CD (Me‐β‐CD) (40% w/w). This is the highest apparent CTZ solubility improvement ever reported in the literature using conventional CDs. Quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (1H‐NMR) coupled with two‐dimensional nuclear Overhauser effect (NOESY) experiments and molecular docking calculations showed that the highest interactions with Me‐β‐CD were reported for CTZ two phenyl groups. A lower interaction was reported for chlorophenyl, while imidazole had the weakest interaction with Me‐β‐CD. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to develop a method for online spectrofluorimetric quality control of naphazoline (NPZ) in pharmaceuticals and raw drugs. A combination of a flow‐injection analysis (FIA) system with micellar‐enhanced fluorescence detection is presented as a powerful alternative for the rapid and sensitive analysis of naphazoline. Since NPZ shows low native fluorescence, the use of an anionic surfactant, such as sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), provides a considerable enhancement of fluorescence intensity and the nature of the technique allows a possible and easy adaptation to a FIA system. Using λexc = 280 nm and λem = 326 nm, a good linear relationship (LOL) was obtained in the range 0.003–10 µg mL?1 with a detection limit (LOD) of 3 × 10?4 µg mL?1 (s/n = 3). Parameters related to the nature of the analytical signal and to the FIA manifold were optimized. Satisfactory recoveries were obtained in the analysis of commercial pharmaceutical formulations. The proposed method is simple, accurate and allows for high‐speed sampling and considerably shorter analysis times. In addition, it requires inexpensive equipment and reagents and has easy operational conditions and no side effects, thus avoiding environmental pollution through toxic waste.

Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides constitute a relatively recent fungicide class registered for the treatment of grey mould on grapevine in Italy. The sensitivity profile to a novel compound fluopyram was established for a set of 203 Botrytis cinerea isolates collected from Sicilian vineyards within 2009–2012 prior its introduction into market. In addition, its performances were compared in in vitro and in vivo assays with other registered SDHI fungicide boscalid, to evaluate their frequency distributions EC50 values and cross‐resistance patterns. Results of the article showed that EC50 values for fluopyram ranged from 0.05 to 1.98 µg mL?1. Although EC50 values of boscalid ranged from 0.01 to 89.52 µg mL?1, no cross‐resistance relationship was observed between the two fungicides (r = 0.003; P = 0.964) within our B. cinerea population. On further confirming these data, boscalid failed in controlling grey mould infections when boscalid‐resistant isolates were inoculated on grape berries whereas fluopyram exhibited a good efficacy against the same isolates. This study represents the first report on the baseline sensitivity to fluopyram within B. cinerea population from Sicilian table grape vineyards in Italy, and it clearly shows the lack of cross‐resistance in vitro and in vivo between fluopyram and boscalid for the field pathogen isolates. These results provided useful information for managing of fungicide resistance suggesting that fluopyram could be a valid alternative to boscalid for the control of grey mould of table grape.  相似文献

A rapid and simple capillary electrophoresis method coupled with chemiluminescent (CL) detection was proposed for analysis of isoniazid (ISO) based on the enhancement effect of ISO to CL emission of luminol‐periodate potassium reaction. Under the optimal conditions, ISO can be assayed in the range of 7.0 × 10?7 to 3.0 × 10?5 g mL?1 (R2 = 0.9990) with a limit of detection of 3.0 × 10?7 g mL?1 (signal‐to‐noise ratio of 3). The whole analysis process can be completed within 2.5 min with a theoretical plate number of 6258. The relative standard deviations of the signal intensity and the migration time were 3.1 and 1.4% for a standard sample at 1.0 × 10?5 g mL?1 (n = 5), respectively. The presented novel strategy was successfully applied to the determination of ISO in commercial pharmaceutical preparations and spiked human serum samples.

In this study, we investigated the phenolic composition of the crude extract (MeOH 80 %) of Alnus cordata (Loisel .) Duby stem bark (ACE) and its antioxidant and skin whitening properties. RP‐LC‐DAD analysis showed a high content of hydroxycinnamic acids (47.64 %), flavanones (26.74 %) and diarylheptanoids (17.69 %). Furthermore, ACE exhibited a dose‐dependent antioxidant and free‐radical scavenging activity, expressed as half‐maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50): Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC, IC50 1.78 μg mL?1)>Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC, IC50 3.47 μg mL?1)>2,2‐Diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH, IC50 5.83 μg mL?1)>β‐carotene bleaching (IC50 11.58 μg mL?1)>Ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP, IC50 17.28 μg mL?1). Moreover, ACE was able to inhibit in vitro tyrosinase activity (IC50 77.44 μg mL?1), l ‐DOPA auto‐oxidation (IC50 39.58 μg mL?1) and in an in vivo model it exhibited bleaching effects on the pigmentation of zebrafish embryos (72 h post fertilization) without affecting their development and survival. In conclusion, results show that A. cordata stem bark may be considered a potential source of agents for the treatment of skin disorders due to its bleaching properties and favorable safety profiles, associated to a good antioxidant power.  相似文献

Fluorescent carbon nanoparticles (CPs), a fascinating class of recently discovered nanocarbons, have been widely known as some of the most promising sensing probes in biological or chemical analysis. In this study, we demonstrate a green synthetic methodology for generating water‐soluble CPs with a quantum yield of approximately 24% via a simple heating process using yum mucilage as a carbon source. The prepared carbon nanoparticles with an ~10 nm size possessed excellent fluorescence properties, and the fluorescence of the CPs was strongly quenched by Fe3+, and recovered by adenosine triphosphate (ATP), thus, an ‘off’ and ‘on’ system can be easily established. This ‘CPs‐Fe3+‐ATP’ strategy was sensitive and selective at detecting ATP with the linear range of 0.5 µmol L?1 to 50 µmol L?1 and with a detection limit of 0.48 µmol L?1.

Owing to the inevitability of nanoparticles encountering proteins/peptides in current bio‐nano‐medicine development, it is important to know how they interact with each other in vitro before developing in vivo applications. To this end, a model de novo β‐sheet‐forming peptide and typical biocompatible nanoparticles were selected to study thermodynamic aspects of their interactions via a fluorescence quenching method. The results showed that Pep11 and AuNPs spontaneously formed conjugates, mainly driven by a coulombic interaction with a binding affinity of ~ 0.1 µM?1; the physical adsorption process was cooperative. These results deepen our quantitative understanding of nanoparticle–peptide interactions. The results may also be helpful in further nanoparticle–peptide hybrid nanofabrication and also useful for the application of nanoparticles in the treatment of amyloid diseases.

A new, simple and sensitive spectrofluorimetric method has been developed for the determination of pregabalin (PG) in capsules. The method is based on the reaction between pregabalin and fluorescamine in borate buffer solution of pH 10 to give a highly fluorescent derivative that is measured at 487 nm after excitation at 390 nm. The different experimental parameters affecting the development and stability of the reaction product were carefully studied and optimized. The fluorescence intensity concentration plot was rectilinear over the range of 0.01–0.3 µg mL?1 with a lower detection limit of 0.0017 µg mL?1 and limit of quantitation of 0.005 µg mL?1. The developed method was successfully applied to the analysis of the drug in its commercial capsules. The mean percentage recovery of PG in its capsule was 99.93±1.24 (n = 3). Statistical comparison of the results with those of the comparison method revealed good agreement and proved that there was no significant difference in the accuracy and precision of the two methods. A proposed reaction pathway was postulated. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

In this study, nisin production of Lactococcus lactis N8 was optimized by independent variables of glucose, hemin and oxygen concentrations in fed‐batch fermentation in which respiration of cells was stimulated with hemin. Response surface model was able to explain the changes of the nisin production of L. lactis N8 in fed‐batch fermentation system with high fidelity (R2 98%) and insignificant lack of fit. Accordingly, the equation developed indicated the optimum parameters for glucose, hemin, and dissolved oxygen were 8 g L?1 h?1, 3 μg mL?1 and 40%, respectively. While 1711 IU mL?1 nisin was produced by L. lactis N8 in control fed‐batch fermentation, 5410 IU mL?1 nisin production was achieved within the relevant optimum parameters where the respiration of cell was stimulated with hemin. Accordingly, nisin production was enhanced 3.1 fold in fed‐batch fermentation using hemin. In conclusion the nisin production of L. lactis N8 was enhanced extensively as a result of increasing the biomass by stimulating the cell respiration with adding the hemin in the fed‐batch fermentation. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.
