[NMR analysis of a contaminant in heparin].

چکیده
Recently, it has been reported that certain lots of heparin are associated with an acute, rapid onset of serious side effects indicative of allergic reaction, and (1)H NMR is one of the convenience but strong analytical methods to identify a contaminant in heparin. However, an NMR signal from the contaminant in some cases is overlapped with a satellite peak from heparin, leading a misunderstanding of the presence of the contaminant. Here, we show the satellite peak observed close to the NMR signal of the contaminant, and recommend the (13)C decoupling NMR to discriminate the satellite peak from the contaminant.

High-sensitivity visualisation of contaminants in heparin samples by spectral filtering of 1H NMR spectra.
A novel application of two-dimensional correlation analysis has been employed to filter (1)H NMR heparin spectra distinguishing acceptable natural variation and the presence of foreign species. Analysis of contaminated heparin samples, compared to a dataset of accepted heparin samples using two-dimensional correlation spectroscopic analysis of their 1-dimensional (1)H NMR spectra, allowed the s...
متن کاملAnalysis of pharmaceutical heparins and potential contaminants using (1)H-NMR and PAGE.
In 2008, heparin (active pharmaceutical ingredient, API) lots were associated with anaphylactoid-type reactions. Oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS), a semi-synthetic glycosaminoglycan (GAG), was identified as a contaminant and dermatan sulfate (DS) as an impurity. While DS has no known toxicity, OSCS was toxic leading to patient deaths. Heparins, prepared before these adverse reactions, ne...
متن کاملOrthogonal analytical approaches to detect potential contaminants in heparin.
Heparin is a widely used anticoagulant and antithrombotic agent. Recently, a contaminant, oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS), was discovered within heparin preparations. The presence of OSCS within heparin likely led to clinical manifestations, most prevalently, hypotension and abdominal pain leading to the deaths of several dozens of patients. Given the biological effects of OSCS, one con...
متن کاملThe tainted heparin story: an update.
Recently, certain batches of heparin have been associated with an acute, rapid onset of serious side-effects indicative of allergic-type reactions. These reports generated significant concern regarding the possible presence of a dangerous contaminant within heparin and highlighted the need to re-assess the purity criteria of heparin preparations for clinical use. Given the nature of the array o...
متن کاملNew developments in the characterization of heparin and its impurities
This special issue highlights many aspects of heparin characterization. Heparin, a glycosaminoglycan, is both an important pharmaceutical in it is own right and a pharmaceutical target for drug discovery as it mediates a wide range of biological processes. A potent anticoagulant isolated from porcine intestinal mucosa, approximately one billion pigs a year are required to constitute the heparin...
