High-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) technique in semi-preparative scale has been applied to separate and purify salvianolic acids from the water extract of Danshen, Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. High efficiency HSCCC separation was achieved on a two-phase solvent system composed of a mixture of n-hexane-ethyl acetate-water-methanol (1.5:5:5:1.5, v/v) by eluting the lower mobile phase...

A selective and sensitive gradient HPLC-UV method for quantification of sotalol hydrochloride and potassium sorbate in five types of oral liquid preparations was developed and fully validated. The separation of an active substance sotalol hydrochloride, potassium sorbate (antimicrobial agent), and other substances (for taste and smell correction, etc.) was performed using an Ascentis Express C1...

Several aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) complexes have been purified from the membranes of acetic acid bacteria. The enzyme structures and the chemical nature of the prosthetic groups associated with these enzymes remain a matter of debate. We report here on the molecular and catalytic properties of the membrane-bound ALDH complex of the diazotrophic bacterium Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus. Th...

ÖZ E T Bu çalışmada tetrazolyum tuzları ve formazanların yapıları tanımlanmıştır. Ayrıca formazan-tetrazolyum sistemlerinin önemi ve kullanım alanları açıklanmıştır. Formazanların sahip oldukları conjugate p-system kaynaklanan tautomerleşme özellikleri ve geometrik izomerleri incelenmiştir. Bu bileşiklerin en yaygın kullanılan sentezleri ve yapılarının açıklanmasında önemli olan UV-visible, IR ...

A simple, rapid, accurate and sensitive method was developed for quantitative analysis of dexamethasone acetate in microemulsions using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection. The chromatography parameters were stainless steel Lichrospher 100 RP-18 column (250 mm x 4 mm i.d., 5 μm particle size), at 30 ± 2 oC. The isocratic mobile phase was methanol:water (65:35; v/v) a...

A liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with UV detection was developed for determination of sodium hyaluronate in pharmaceutical formulation. Sodium hyaluronate is a polymer of disaccharides, composed of d-glucuronic acid and d-N-acetylglucosamine, linked via alternating β-1, 4 and β-1, 3 glycosidic bonds. Being a polymer compound it lacks a UV absorbing chromophore. In the absence of a UV absor...

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess molecular interactions between several anticancer drugs and an iodinated contrast medium by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and ultravioletvisible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). Materials and Methods: Iopamidol (IPM) was used as an iodinated contrast medium, and mitomycin C (MMC), epirubicin hydrochloride (EPI), cisplatin (CDDP), 5-fluorou...
