Effects of chronic hydrochloric and lactic acid administrations on food intake, blood acid-base balance and bone composition of the rat.

In experiment 1, weanling rats were given, for 7 weeks, a commercial rat diet supplemented with hydrochloric acid at levels up to 560 mmol.kg-1 dry matter. The supplement increased water intake but did not significantly affect food intake, live-weight gain, blood haemoglobin and haematocrit values or acid-base balance. In experiment 2, adult rats were given, for 9 weeks, a commercial rat diet supplemented with hydrochloric acid at levels up to 1250 mmol.kg-1 dry matter. Food intake and liveweight gain were not affected by hydrochloric acid concentration up to 625 mmole but at 938 mmol.kg-1 they were considerably reduced and there was 100% mortality of the rats. In experiment 3, weanling rats were given, for 12 weeks, a commercial rat diet supplemented with hydrochloric or lactic acid each at 300, 600 and 900 mmol.kg-1 dry matter. Lactic acid at the three levels and hydrochloric acid at the two lower levels did not affect food intake or live weight gain and had only a slight effect on blood acid-base balance. At a dietary concentration of 900 mmol.kg-1 dry matter, hydrochloric acid decreased food intake, induced a mild degree of metabolic acidosis and resulted in 30% mortality of the rats. In the three experiments, the acid treatments dnot directly affect the length or composition of the femur of the rats.

Alternative mobile phases for enhanced chromatographic selectivity and increased sensitivity in peptide separations.

The standard method for separating peptide mixtures is reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with gradients of increasing concentrations of acetonitrile in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid. With modern instruments and columns, complex peptide mixtures can be separated, and low picomole amounts can be collected in tens of microliters. Difficult separations are addressed by modifying the gradient slope or organic eluant composition. Further improvements in resolution are often needed, requiring fundamental changes in mobile phase composition or selection of complementary chromatographic separation mechanisms. For the present study, tryptic digests of cytochrome c from various species were separated in the presence of dilute hydrochloric acid by reversed phase on a Waters Delta-Pak C18 high-performance insert column and by strong cation exchange on a Waters Protein-Pak SP 8HR. Different and enhanced reversed-phase selectivity was obtained by replacing trifluoroacetic acid with dilute hydrochloric acid at the same pH. The increased optical clarity of hydrochloric acid-based mobile phases in the low ultraviolet wavelengths yielded increased sensitivity. Very different selectivity was observed with the cation-exchange chromatography. These data expand the options for peptide mapping by providing additional selectivity combined with increased mass sensitivity and spectral information in the low ultraviolet.

A comparison among animal models of acute lung injury.

OBJECTIVES: To compare four widely used animal models of acute lung injury and to determine the changes in physiologic variables associated with each model. DESIGN: A prospective, controlled animal study. SETTING: An animal laboratory of a university-affiliated children's hospital. SUBJECTS: Four groups of anesthetized, paralyzed, and ventilated young Yorkshire pigs, weighing 35 to 45 kg. INTERVENTIONS: Acute lung injury was generated by four different methods: a) intrapulmonary arterial infusion of endotoxin of Escherichia colt; b) bronchoalveolar instillation of 0.05N of hydrochloric acid; c) repeated bronchoalveolar warm saline lavage; and d) intrapulmonary arterial infusion of oleic acid. After each acute lung injury procedure, the temporal changes in various physiologic variables were measured, starting at 60 mins and at 15-min intervals thereafter for a total of 165 mins. Systemic and mixed venous serum immunoreactive tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha concentrations were also measured at the same time points. Analysis of variance for repeated measures was employed to determine the absolute and relative significance of the changes observed. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Systemic and mixed venous immunoreactive TNF-alpha did not change following any of the acute lung injury procedures. The animals' heart rates and systemic vascular resistances also did not change. Hydrochloric acid instillation as well as bronchoalveolar lavage resulted in significant hypoxemia with no other hemodynamic effects. Endotoxin infusion did not result in hypoxemia but caused significant increases in mean pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance and decreases in mean arterial pressure and cardiac output. Oleic acid infusion resulted in a marked hypoxemia with a pronounced increase in mean pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance. It also markedly reduced the mean arterial pressure, cardiac output, and the mixed venous PO2. CONCLUSIONS: The surfactant depletion and hydrochloric acid instillation models produce acute hypoxemia in an otherwise hemodynamically stable animal. A brief endotoxin infusion provides a model for cardiovascular instability and pulmonary hypertension but fails to produce hypoxemia in the pig. The oleic acid infusion creates a model of marked cardiovascular instability, pulmonary hypertension, and profound hypoxemia. However, none of the acute lung injury models described was associated with the production of tumor necrosis factor.

Simulated reflux and laryngotracheal reconstruction: a rabbit model.

OBJECTIVES: (1) To test the feasibility of a rabbit model using a pharyngostomy tube to simulate gastroesophageal reflux and (2) to study the effects of gastroesophageal reflux on laryngotracheal reconstruction using a new rabbit model. DESIGN: Prospective randomized trial. SUBJECTS: Thirty-three New Zealand white rabbits. INTERVENTIONS: Anterior cartilage laryngotracheoplasty and pharyngostomy tube placement into the pyriform sinus were performed in 33 rabbits, 22 of which are included in this analysis. Beginning postoperative day 1, hydrochloric acid at a pH of 1.5 with pepsin (n = 7) or at a pH of 4.0 with pepsin (n = 8) was irrigated twice daily through the pharyngostomy tube to simulate gastroesophageal reflux, and a control group received twice-daily isotonic sodium chloride solution irrigations (n = 7). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Specimens were scored by a pathologist masked to individual groups using a newly modified inflammation scoring system. In addition, cross-sectional areas of the cartilage grafts and subglottic airway lumina were compared. RESULTS: Inflammation scores were significantly higher in rabbits receiving hydrochloric acid and pepsin irrigations at a pH of 4.0 (P =.04) but not in those in the pH 1.5 group. Cartilage necrosis was prominent in all groups, and airway sizes and cross-sectional areas of the grafts were not significantly different among the 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Cartilage necrosis is prominent during the early stages after laryngotracheoplasty. Inflammation can be increased using hydrochloric acid and pepsin irrigations but is difficult to predict based on this study. Although we confirmed the feasibility of this model, further modifications of this study are proposed to improve animal survival and data collection.

Effect of aspirin and acid on human jejunal mucosa. An ultrastructural study.

To determine the effects of aspirin and hydrochloric acid on human jejunal mucosa, three obese patients with a small intestinal bypass that opened on the abdominal wall as a mucous fistula were studied. An 80-mM solution of HCl, a 40-mM suspension of aspirin (equivalent to two tablets in a glass of water), and a combination suspension of 40 mM aspirin plus 40 mM HCl damaged a mean +/- SE of 26 +/- 13% (P less than 0.05), 24 +/- 5% (P less than 0.05), and 29 +/- 5% (P less than 0.05) of jejunal villi, respectively, 5 min after administration. By 60 min after instillation, considerable recovery had occurred. Scanning electron microscopy revealed focal villous tip erosion and erythrocyte extrusion after all test solutions. In conclusion, aspirin, 40 mM, physiologic concentration of hydrochloric acid, and the combination of acid plus aspirin are each capable of damaging human small intestinal mucosa on direct contact.

Differentiation of the formaldehyde-induced fluorescent products of noradrenaline and dopamine by microspectrofluorometry.

The influence of concentration of dopamine and noradrenaline on the spectral characteristics of their formaldehyde-induced fluorophore, together with the influence of duration of reaction with formaldehyde, has been investigated in a model system. No substantial differences between fluorescence spectra of the amine fluorophores were observed. Accordingly, the influence of hydrochloric acid and ammonia vapours on the fluorophores was investigated. A shift to shorter wavelengths in the excitation maximum of each fluorophore was observed after a brief exposure to hydrochloric acid vapour; more prolonged exposure resulted in a pronounced shift back to longer wavelengths in the case of noradrenaline but no substantial change was observed with dopamine. Brief exposure to hydrochloric acid vapour resulted in a substantial increase in the rate of fading of the noradrenaline fluorophore on exposure to exciting radiation. It is suggested that this offers a convenient way of differentiating the amines.

Effect of additives on the physicochemical properties of liquid suppository bases.

To investigate the effects of additives on the physicochemical properties of in situ gelling and mucoadhesive liquid suppository base, gelation temperature, gel strength and bioadhesive force of liquid suppository base, poloxamer 407 (P 407) and poloxamer 188 (P 188) (15/15%) were evaluated in the presence of following additives: solvent (ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin), ionic strength-controlling agent (sodium chloride) and pH-controlling agent (hydrochloric acid, sodium monohydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate). Among the additives studied, sodium chloride, sodium monohydrogen phosphate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate increased to a great extent the gel strength and the bioadhesive force of P 407/P 188 (15/15%) with a decrease in gelation temperature. Glycerin slightly decreased the gelation temperature and slightly increased the gel strength and bioadhesive force. However, the addition of 1% of sodium chloride, sodium monohydrogen phosphate or sodium dihydrogen phosphate caused a greater than 60-fold increase in gel strength and over a tenfold increase in bioadhesive force with 2-4 degrees C decrease of gelation temperature within optimal range, compared with P 407/P 188 (15/15%) alone. On the other hand, ethanol, propylene glycol and hydrochloric acid increased the gelation temperature and slightly decreased the gel strength and the bioadhesive force. Taken together, these findings indicate that the effect of additives on the physicochemical properties of liquid suppository bases depends on their bonding capacities, in that additives such as sodium chloride, sodium monohydrogen phosphate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate having strong cross-linking bonds with the components of liquid suppository base increase the strength and bioadhesive force of a gel compared to liquid suppository base alone, while additives such as ethanol, propylene glycol and hydrochloric acid having weaker hydrogen bonding result in a weaker response. Thus, sodium chloride and sodium phosphates appear to be promising additives for in situ gelling and mucoadhesive liquid suppository base, if used in adequate amounts.

Cleavage of phycocyanobilin from C-phycocyanin. Separation and mass spectral identification of the products.

The chromophore of C-phycocyanin, phycocyanobilin, was cleaved from the protein with methanol, concentrated hydrochloric acid, or subtilisin BPN'. The pigments obtained were converted to their dimethyl esters and purified by preparative high pressure liquid chromatography and examined for purity by analytical high pressure chromatography on silica gel. They were characterized by proton transfer and electron impact mass spectroscopy. The principal product obtained by the three cleavage procedures was phycocyanobilin. Methanol and hydrochloric acid adducts of phycocyanobilin were obtained with methanol and concentrated hydrochloric acid cleavages, respectively. Methanol adduct formation of phycocyanobilin can occur subsequent to cleavage and requires acid catalysis. No adduct formation was observed with mesobiliverdin under similar conditions. These results and mass spectral data support the conclusion that adduct formation takes place at the exocyclic olefin linkage of ring A in phycocyanobilin. The ease of co-valent adduct formation strongly suggests that the ethylidene side chain is an important binding site of phycocyanobilin to the polypeptide chain.

Potentiation of canine pancreatic bicarbonate output by oleic acid is not neurally dependent.

To study neural involvement in potentiation of acid-induced pancreatic bicarbonate output, six dogs underwent extrapancreatic denervation and pancreatic fistula creation. Pancreatic responses to secretin (16 and 32 ng/kg/h) and cholecystokinin (50 ng/kg/h) were then assessed. The duodenum was then perfused with three sets of perfusates. The first set contained hydrochloric acid with either D- or L-phenylalanine. The second set contained bovine serum albumin and hydrochloric acid with or without oleic acid; the albumin and acid were varied so that each 50 ml contained 1, 2, or 4 meq titratable acid (pH 2.0-4.5). The third set was identical to the second except for initial pH of 3.5. Pancreatic responses predicted upon addition of cholecystokinin to secretin, L-phenylalanine to hydrochloric acid, or oleic acid to bovine serum albumin were compared with observed responses. At both doses, secretin-induced bicarbonate output was increased by cholecystokinin (16 ng/kg/h: 0.88 +/- 0.29 meq/15 min; 32 ng/kg/h: 1.01 +/- 0.23 meq/15 min). The latter significantly exceeded predicted output (16 ng/kg/h: 0.38 +/- 0.10 meq/15 min; 32 ng/kg/h: 0.58 +/- 0.15 meq/15 min), verifying potentiation. L-phenylalanine failed to potentiate bicarbonate output evoked by acidified D-phenylalanine. In contrast, addition of oleic acid to pH 2.0 or 3.5 bovine serum albumin potentiated bicarbonate output. These data suggest that enteropancreatic reflexes mediate potentiation of acid-induced pancreatic bicarbonate output by amino acids, but not by fatty acids.

Development of taste responses in the rat parabrachial nucleus.

Extracellular responses from neurons in the parabrachial nuclei (PBN) were studied in rats 4 days old to adulthood during chemical stimulation of the tongue with monochloride salts, citric and hydrochloric acids, sucrose, sodium saccharin, and quinine hydrochloride. Multiunit taste responses were recorded in rats at 4-7 days of age and single-unit responses were recorded from 121 neurons in four other age groups of 14-20 days, 25-35 days, 50-60 days, and adults. PBN neurons in rats 4-7 days old consistently responded to 0.1 M solutions of NH4Cl and NaCl, to 0.5 M solutions of NH4Cl, NaCl, and KCl, and to 1.0 M sucrose, 0.1 M sodium saccharin, 0.1 M citric acid, and 0.1 N HCl. They often did not respond, however, to 0.1 M KCl and 0.01 M quinine hydrochloride. Single PBN neurons in rats 14 days old and older characteristically responded to all stimuli, which consisted of 0.1 and 0.5 M salts, acids, sucrose, sodium saccharin, and quinine hydrochloride. Thus no developmental differences occurred in the number of stimuli to which neurons responded after rats were 14 days old. With the exception of responses to hydrochloric acid, there were significant increases in response frequencies to all stimuli after 14 days of age. Average response frequencies to NH4Cl and citric acid increased after 20 days of age and those to NaCl, LiCl, KCl, sucrose, sodium saccharin, and quinine hydrochloride increased after 35 days of age. Average response frequencies for hydrochloric acid did not alter after 14 days of age. The proportion of single PBN neurons that responded maximally to specific monochloride salts did not change during development. Most single neurons in all age groups responded equally well to NH4Cl, NaCl, and LiCl. No PBN neuron responded maximally to KCl. Developmental differences in response frequencies of third-order gustatory neurons in the PBN generally reflect developmental response changes in first-order neurons of the chorda tympani nerve and second-order neurons of the solitary nucleus. However, unique developmental changes are evident in the PBN. Thus the ontogenetic changes that occur in PBN responses likely relate to modifications of lower-order peripheral and central nervous system afferents and peripheral receptor sensitivities.

A new technique for orcein banding with acid treatment.

A rapid method for banding plant chromosomes using hydrochloric acid with orcein is suggested. The technique has been successful in both dioecious and monoecious families with short chromosomes. It involves pretreatment with an oxyquinoline-paradichlorobenzene mixture, fixation in acetic ethanol and treatment with hydrochloric acid at 60 C followed by staining with orcein. Stained chromosome bands and interbands are reproducible and species specific.

Effect of acute acidemia on blood biochemical variables in healthy ponies.

L-Lactic acid and D,L-lactic acid infusion in ponies resulted in metabolic acidosis with high anion gap (AG). Increased AG was explained entirely by increased blood L- and D-lactate concentrations. Hydrochloric acid infusion caused metabolic acidosis with decreased AG. Saline (NaCl) infusion caused mild metabolic acidosis, with no significant change in AG. Plasma K+ concentration was decreased by all types of infusions, with a maximum of 0.50, 0.25, 0.40, 0.50 mmol/L below baseline at the end of infusion in the L-lactic acid-, D,L-lactic acid-, HCl-, and NaCl-infused ponies, respectively. Only hydrochloric acid had a tendency to increase plasma K+ concentration. Hypophosphatemia developed in NaCl- and HCl-infused ponies, but not in the D,L-lactic acid-infused ponies. Serum inorganic phosphate concentration in L-lactic acid-infused ponies increased initially, but was significantly (P less than 0.05) lower than values in the other ponies at 4 hours after onset of infusion. In ponies, the effect of acidemia on plasma K+ and serum inorganic phosphate concentrations was similar to that reported for other species. Changes were small in magnitude and depended on the nature of the acid anion. Results indicate that large changes in plasma K+ and serum inorganic phosphate concentrations during acidosis are probably not a direct result of acidemia.

Metabolism of diazepam and related benzodiazepines by human liver microsomes.

The metabolism of diazepam has been studied in vitro using microsomal preparations from five human livers. An HPLC method was developed for the assay of diazepam, its congeners and its metabolites. Various methods for the incorporation of diazepam into the incubation medium were explored. It was shown that the use of organic solvents or small quantities of hydrochloric acid enhanced the solubility of this substrate. However all of the organic solvents tested were associated with substantial (around 50%) inhibition of metabolism of diazepam by both major pathways (N-demethylation and C3-hydroxylation). The use of hydrochloric acid gave satisfactory solubilization of diazepam, but not of pinazepam, prazepam or halazepam. Detailed metabolic studies were conducted only for diazepam, using neither hydrochloric acid nor organic solvents in the incubation medium. Formation of N-desmethyl-diazepam increased approximately linearly with diazepam concentration to 200 microM, and did not show saturation. Formation of temazepam gave a curved profile over the same range of diazepam concentrations, suggestive of a sigmoidal relationship. Michaelis-Menten parameters could not be determined for either reaction, but intrinsic clearances for N-demethylation varied over a 6-fold range. Diazepam N-demethylation was apparently promoted by the inclusion of temazepam in the incubation medium, while C3-hydroxylation of diazepam was enhanced in the presence of N-desmethyldiazepam. Mephenytoin in the incubation mixture had no effect on diazepam metabolism by either pathway. The present studies have defined some of the methodological problems inherent in in vitro metabolic studies with benzodiazepines, and have shed further light on the metabolism of diazepam in vitro by human liver.

Oesophageal acid and salivary secretion: is chewing gum a treatment option for gastro-oesophageal reflux?

The presence of acid in the oesophagus has been shown to stimulate salivary secretion, but the relevance of this oesophago-salivary reflex for acid clearance in physiological and pathological gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) is unknown. This study was designed to investigate the interrelation between oesophageal acid and both resting and stimulated salivary secretion. In 10 healthy volunteers, the acid clearance times after bolus infusion of 20 ml of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid were measured by means of ambulatory oesophageal pH monitoring. With a constant swallowing rate and resting salivary flow, the acid clearance time was significantly longer with dry as opposed to wet swallows (12.6 +/- 2.6 vs. 6.9 +/- 1.9 min; p = 0.01). When the salivary flow was doubled by chewing a gum base (26.0 +/- 3.4 vs. 13.2 +/- 2.0 ml/15 min; p = 0.005), the acid clearance time was markedly shortened (6.9 +/- 1.9 vs. 2.3 +/- 0.2 min; p = 0.02). As compared with water control, salivary flow, pH, and protein content were not affected by a bolus infusion of hydrochloric acid. This was true both for resting and gum-stimulated salivary secretion. Our study suggests that an oesophago-salivary reflex becomes effective only in prolonged episodes of GOR. This may explain why the water brash phenomenon is not regularly experienced by all reflux patients. Our study also suggests that chewing gum might be a non-pharmacological treatment option for some patients with symptomatic GOR.

Critical examination for the presence of a low molecular weight fraction in serum iron.

Native human pool serum and individual sera were ultrafiltered by Pellicon ultrafilters (Millipore) and the ultrafiltrates were extracted by an ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate/methylisobutylketone system after addition of different internal iron standards to three of four identical ultrafiltrates. The extracts were examined for iron content by atomic absorption spectrometry. During ultrafiltration pH 7.4 was maintained by a constant atmosphere of a CO2/air mixture. Low molecular weight iron in native human sera from normal, normal orally iron substituted and siderotic individuals was found to be less than 0.05 micrograms/100 ml. Elevating serum citrate to 3-fold normal had no effect on this result. More iron became ultrafiltrable if the serum pH were lowered by citric acid as compared with hydrochloric acid.

Microvascular permeability increases early in the course of acid-induced esophageal injury.

To test the hypothesis that microvascular injury is involved in the pathophysiology of acid-induced esophagitis, the effect of acid perfusion on intraluminal plasma protein loss was studied in relation to histological changes. Four groups of opossums (n = 6 in each) were perfused with either normal saline control) or 10, 20, or 100 mmol/L isoosmolar hydrochloric acid at 2 mL/min for 90 minutes using a midesophageal catheter. The distal esophagus was cannulated via a gastrostomy, and the effluent was collected and measured for intraluminal loss of IV injected 125I-bovine serum albumin. Plasma protein loss in the control group was constant with a total loss of 3.40 +/- 0.69 mg/g dry wt. Perfusion of 10, 20, and 100 mmol/L hydrochloric acid increased total protein loss to 8.06 +/- 2.62, 13.94 +/- 2.72, and 27.34 +/- 4.34 mg/g dry wt, respectively. The protein loss was not associated with intraluminal blood loss, as measured by previously injected 51Cr-labeled autologous red blood cells. Histological changes, scored by a blinded observer, were significant only between control animals and those perfused with 100 mmol/L hydrochloric acid. Separate studies using the vascular tracer monastral blue B demonstrated an increase in labeling of lamina propria blood vessels that varied directly with the concentration of acid perfusate, thereby providing direct morphological evidence of microvascular injury. These studies suggest that increased microvascular permeability occurs early in the course of acid-induced esophageal injury.

Effect of different forms of alkali treatment on specific fermentation inhibitors and on the fermentability of lignocellulose hydrolysates for production of fuel ethanol.

Treatment with alkali, particularly overliming, has been widely used as a method for the detoxification of lignocellulose hydrolysates prior to ethanolic fermentation. However, the mechanisms behind the detoxification effect and the influence of the choice of cation have not been well understood. In this study, a dilute acid hydrolysate of spruce and an inhibitor cocktail consisting of six known inhibitors were used to investigate different alkali detoxification methods. The various treatments included the addition of calcium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and ammonia to pH 10.0 and subsequent adjustment of the pH to 5.5 with either sulfuric or hydrochloric acid as well as treatment with the corresponding amounts of calcium, sodium, and potassium as sulfate or chloride salts at pH 5.5. An RP-HPLC method was developed for the separation of 18 different inhibitors in the hydrolysate, including furaldehydes and phenolics. Detection and quantification were carried out by means of UV, DAD, and ESI-MS in negative mode. Treatment of the spruce hydrolysate with alkali resulted in up to approximately 40% decrease in the concentration of furaldehydes. The effects on the aromatic compounds were complex. Furthermore, SFE was performed on the precipitate formed during alkali treatment to evaluate the inhibitor content of the precipitate, and the following RP-HPLC analysis implied that potential inhibitors were removed mainly through conversion rather than through filtration of precipitate. Parallel experiments in which sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid was used for acidification to pH 5.5 after alkali treatment indicated that the choice of anion did not affect the removal of inhibitors. Detoxification with calcium hydroxide and ammonia resulted in better fermentability using Saccharomyces cerevisiae than detoxification with sodium hydroxide. The results from the experiments with the inhibitor cocktail indicated that the positive effects of alkali treatment are difficult to explain by removal of the inhibitors only and that possible stimulatory effects on the fermenting organism warrant further attention.
