    Notes: Abstract A gradient high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed to determine degradation products of adinazolam mesylate in a sustained release tablet formulation. Sample preparations were chromatographed on a YMC-Basic column using a formate buffer/acetonitrile gradient with absorbance detection at 254 nm. Adinazolam mesylate was found to degrade at high relative humidity and temperature to form a major product, the 6-aminoquinoline analog, plus numerous other compounds. Five of these compounds were identified and their structures indicate that the solid-state degradation of adinazolam, in the presence of sufficient moisture, involves not only a hydrolytic mechanism, but also an oxidative mechanism. Potential process impurities were resolved from the drug and degradation products. Recovery was near 100% over the 0.5 to 10% range for the major degradate (6-aminoquinoline) and over the 0.5 to 1% range for the other analytes. The method was applied to tablet samples stressed at high relative humidity and temperature. The relative standard deviation of the assay for the 6-aminoquinoline was less than 2% and less than 13% for the minor components. Calculated mass balances (sum of adinazolam plus degradation products in the degraded tablet divided by the same sum in the undegraded tablet) were less than 100% and were dependent on the extent of degradation in the tablet. The average mass balance result obtained for samples that were an average of 9.5% degraded was 95.0 ± 1.5%. It is possible that the decrease in mass balance with increase in percent degradation may be explained by the formation of many components at trace levels due to degradation by various permutations of hydrolytic and oxidative reaction pathways.

    Structural analysis of bovine pancreatic thread protein (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Pancreatic thread protein (PTP) forms double helical threads in the neutralpH range after purification, undergoing freely reversible,pH-dependent globule-fibril transformation. The purified bovine PTP consists on SDS gels of two carbohydrate-free polypeptide chains (Grosset al., 1985). Plasma desorption mass spectrometry and amino acid sequence analysis now confirm that bovine PTP contains two disulfide-bonded polypeptides, an A chain of 101 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 11,073 and a B chain of 35 residues with a molecular weight of 3970. The intact protein exhibits a molecular weight of 15,036, agreeing 〉99.9% with the molecular weight calculated from the sequence. The B chain sequence was determined by gas-phase Edman degradation of the intact polypeptide. The A chain sequence was determined from overlapping peptides generated by cleavage at lysyl, tryptophanyl, and aspartyl-prolyl residues. Based upon the bovine PTP cDNA structure, the two chains of the protein result from cleavage of a single polypeptide with removal of a dipeptide between the NH2-terminal A chain and COOH-terminal B chain. Comparison of bovine PTP with other proteins reveals significant structural relatedness with the single-chain homologues from human and rat pancreas and with the motif associated with Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate recognition domains. The physiological role of PTP has not yet been resolved. The protein is present in very high concentration in pancreatic secretion and it has been detected in brain lesions in Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome and in regenerating rat pancreatic islets. The present results provide a firm protein base for ongoing molecular, physical-chemical, and structure-function studies of this unusual protein.

    Further Alkaloids Common to Ants and Frogs: Decahydroquinolines and a Quinolizidine (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Three alkaloids—two minor decahydroquinolines (DHQs) and a major quinolizidine—were detected in an extract of a Brazilian myrmicine ant (Solenopsis (Diplorhoptrum) sp. picea group). One DHQ (3) was identical to a known frog-skin alkaloid, cis-195A (cis-5-methyl-2-propyldecahydroquinoline), while the second DHQ, an isomer of 3, designated 195J, was assigned a tentative cis-2-methyl-5-propyldecahydroquinoline structure (2) based on mass and infrared spectra. The third alkaloid proved identical to the frog-skin alkaloid 195C, for which a structure had not been previously proposed. Mass and infrared spectral analysis, including chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry, indicated a 4-methyl-6-propylquinolizidine structure (1) for 195C. The four possible diastereomers were synthesized and the (6Z,10E)-4-methyl-6-propylquinolizidine diastereomer (1b) was identical to the natural alkaloid. Skin extracts of a population of a Madagascan mantelline frog contained, among other alkaloids, minor amounts of the same alkaloid triad 1–3 with 1 again predominating. The common occurrence of alkaloids 1–3 in both ant and frog supports the hypothesis that ants are a likely dietary source for sequestered frog-skin alkaloids and brings to six, the alkaloid classes common to ant and frog.

    Effect of surfactant and particle size reduction on hydrolysis of deinking sludge and nonrecyclable newsprint (1995)

    Notes: Disposal of sludge from deinking mills represents a significant proportion of operating costs. Bioconversion of the cellulosic fraction of deinking sludge (DIS) to ethanol greatly reduces disposal costs while producing an environmentally friendly fuel. In this study, the cellulosic fraction of newsprint and deinking sludge was hydrolysed to produce fermentable sugars. For newsprint, a particle size of 1 to 1.5 mm provided optimal reaction rates in batch reactors over practical hydrolysis times, and reducing sugar concentrations as high as 35 g/L could be achieved using a fed-batch reactor configuration. For both newsprint and DIS, the hydrolysis rate increased nonlinearly with enzyme loading. Tween-80 only marginally improved sugar production but was able to release sugars from cellulosic substrates in the absence of lytic enzymes, in an amount proportional to the surfactant concentration and the substrate particle size. DIS was relatively recalcitrant to enzymatic hydrolysis, possibly due in part to inhibition by hydrophobic constituents. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The migration of chemotactic bacteria in liquid media has previously been characterized in terms of two fundamental transport coefficients - the random motility coefficient and the chemotactic sensitivity coefficient. For modeling migration in porous media, we have shown that these coefficients which appear in macroscopic balance equations can be replaced by effective values that reflect the impact of the porous media on the swimming behavior of individual bacteria. Explicit relationships between values of the coefficients in porous and liquid media were derived. This type of quantitative analysis of bacterial migration is necessary for predicting bacterial population distributions in subsurface environments for applications such as in situ bioremediation in which bacteria respond chemotactically to the pollutants that they degrade.We analyzed bacterial penetration times through sand columns from two different experimental studies reported in the literature within the context of our mathematical model to evaluate the effective transport coefficients. Our results indicated that the presence of the porous medium reduced the random motility of the bacterial population by a factor comparable to the theoretical prediction. We were unable to determine the effect of the porous medium on the chemotactic sensitivity coefficient because no chemotactic response was observed in the experimental studies. However, the mathematical model was instrumental in developing a plausible explanation for why no chemotactic response was observed. The chemical gradients may have been too shallow over most of the sand core to elicit a measurable response. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 53: 487-496, 1997.

    Notes: Alcohol fermentation has traditionally been carried out in aqueous environments because of the ready solubility of reactant (sugar) and product (ethanol). However, extraction of the product ethanol into a nonmiscible phase can result in kinetic benefits due to reduced inhibition of the fermentation reactions. In this study, we report the development of a novel simultaneous saccharification and extractive fermentation (SSEF) process. Ethanol productivity was increased by up to 65% over conventional (nonextractive) fed-batch simultaneous saccharification systems when calculated on the basis of aqueous phase volume. The amount of water required for SSEF reactions was dramatically reduced from that required for conventional SSF. In batch SSEF reactors with 2.5% aqueous phase, 50% conversion of 25% (aqueous phase concentration) Solka Floc could be achieved in 48 h using 2 FPU/g cellulase. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Patent protection of inventions relating to combinatorial chemistry is attended by special challenges. The “breakthrough” nature of the field together with the always complex and often arcane chemical manipulations, apparatus, and strategies which suffuse this field make it difficult to describe the inventions adequately. It can be a challenge to communicate effectively with official authorities charged with patent examination. Extraordinary effort is called for in clarifying such inventions such that their patentability can be appreciated. The utility of some types of inventions in this field may be open to question; clear statements of at least one acceptable utility - even if only a minor utility - is beneficial. Because a principal product of many aspects of combinatorial chemistry is information, e.g., the identification of a lead compound, offshore “piracy” is a risk. Domestic claim tie-ins may improve the ability to abate such piracy. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng (Comb Chem) 61:69-75, 1998.
