Abstract

Chemoembolization is the injection of active-principle-bearing microparticles via selective catheterization. The authors discuss the advantages and the possibilities of this method in relation to selective catheterization and to the various time periods required for microparticle biodegradation and the kinetics of drug release. Particular attention is paid to intra-arterial chemoperfusion, chemoembolization and chemoinfusion with microparticles.

Stereoselective determination of R-(+)- and S-(-)-remoxipride, a dopamine D2-receptor antagonist, in human plasma by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography.

A stereoselective high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method is described for the selective and sensitive quantitation in human plasma of R-(+)- and S-(-)-enantiomers of remoxipride. Remoxipride was extracted from basified plasma into hexane-methyl-tert.-butyl ether (20:80, v/v), washed with sodium hydroxide (1.0 M), then back-extracted into phosphoric acid (0.1 M). A structural analog of remoxipride was used as an internal standard. The sample extracts were chromatographed using a silica-based derivatized cellulose chiral column, Chiralcel OD-R, and a reversed-phase eluent containing 30-32% acetonitrile in 0.1 M potassium hexafluorophosphate. Ultraviolet (UV) absorbance detection was performed at 214 nm. Using 0.5-ml plasma aliquots, the method was validated in the concentration range 0.02-2.0 microg/ml and was applied in the investigation of systemic inversion of remoxipride enantiomers in man.

Stability of tacrolimus in an extemporaneously compounded oral liquid.

The stability of tacrolimus in an extemporaneously compounded oral liquid formulation was studied. A suspension was prepared by mixing the contents of commercially available 5-mg capsules of tacrolimus with equal amounts of Ora-Plus and Simple Syrup, NF, to make a final volume of 60 mL. The final concentration of tacrolimus in the suspension was 0.5 mg/mL. Six identical suspensions were prepared, placed in three glass and three plastic amber prescription bottles, and stored at room temperature (24-26 degrees C). Immediately after preparation and at 7, 15, 30, 45, and 56 days, samples were removed and assayed in duplicate by stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography. At least 98% of the initial tacrolimus concentrations remained in all suspensions throughout the study period. Color, order, and pH did not change appreciably over the study period. Tacrolimus 0.5 mg/mL compounded extemporaneously in equal amounts of Ora-Plus and Simple Syrup, NF, was stable at 24-26 degrees C for at least 56 days in both glass and plastic amber prescription bottles.

Determination of moisture in hard gelatin capsules using near-infrared spectroscopy: applications to at-line process control of pharmaceutics.

A method is proposed in which diffuse reflectance near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) is applied in an at-line process analytical interface to determine moisture content in bulk hard gelatin capsules. Capsule samples were equilibrated at various relative humidities and the moisture contents were determined using loss on drying (LOD). Different multivariate calibration methods using multiple linear regression (MLR) and partial least squares regression (PLSR) and various spectral pretreatments were compared. No sample pretreatment was required and the analysis time was 1-2 min. The investigated range for the moisture determination was 5.6-18.0% w/w and the root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) value was 0.1% w/w.
