In vivo evaluation the efficiency of nitazoxanide with cationic Gemini surfactant on Cryptosporidiosis

تُعرض الإصابة بداء خفيات الأبواغ حياة العديد من الأشخاص للخطر وخصوصا المصابين بنقص المناعة، تحديدا مرضى فيروس نقص المناعة البشرية.  يُعد النيتازوكسانيد أحد الأدوية العلاجية الرئيسية المستخدمة في علاج داء الكريبتوسبوريديوسس. ومع ذلك، فهو ضعيف الذوبان في الماء ، مما يحد من فائدته وفعاليته في المرضى الذين يعانون من نقص المناعة. يحتوي الفاعل بالسطح على طابع برمائي وهذا يشير إلى قدرتها على تحسين قابلية الذوبان في الماء للعقار المضاد للماء. يتعلق بحثنا بتركيب مواد خافضة للتوتر السطحي من الجوزاء الموجبة الجديدة والتي لديها القدرة على تحسين قابلية ذوبان عقار نانازوكسيد. لذلك قمنا بتوليف مواد خافضة للتوتر السطحي توأمية موجبة.  N1,N1,N3,N3-tetramethyl-N1,N3-bis(2-octadecanamidoethyl)propane-1,3-diaminium bromide (CGSPS18) و  2,2‘-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy))bis(N-(2-octadecanamidoethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-oxoethane-1-aminium) dichloride (CGSES18)   وتأكيد تركيبها الكيميائي بالطرق الطيفية المختلفة وكذلك دراسة خصائص السطح والسمية لها. بالإضافة إلى ذلك، تمت دراسة فعالية نيتازوكسانيد في الفئران المصابة بإضافة ثلاث جرعات مختلفة من المواد الخافضة للتوتر السطحي. لمعرفة تأثير النيتازوكسانيد والمواد الخافضة للتوتر السطحي معا، تم حساب العدوى بالطفيليات قبل العلاج وبعده ، كما تم فحص الأنسجة المعوية والكبدية والرئوية. في هذه الدراسة وجد أن الجمع بين عقار نيتازوكسانيد مع المواد الخافضة للتوتر السطحي وخاصة المركب (CGSPS18) بتركيز 25٪ زاد من الفعالية وأدى إلى انخفاض بنسبة 90.8٪. أظهر فحص الأنسجة المرضية أن المجموعة التي عولجت بعقار نيتازوكسانيد مع CGSPS18 أظهرت أفضل النتائج التي أظهرت نمطًا زغبيًا طبيعيًا تقريبًا. أظهرت هذه الدراسة زيادة في فعالية النيتازوكسانيد عند دمجه مع المواد الخافضة للتوتر السطحي ، وهذا يشير إلى مستقبل واعد لاستخدام المواد الخافضة للتوتر السطحي كعامل مساعد لتعزيز فعالية النيتازوكسانيد في علاج داء خفيات الأبواغ في المرضى الذين يعانون من نقص المناعة ، وخاصة مرضى فيروس نقص المناعة البشرية.Infection with cryptosporidiosis endangers the lives of many people with immunodeficiency, especially HIV patients. Nitazoxanide is one of the main therapeutic drugs used to treat cryptosporidiosis. However, it is poorly soluble in water, which restricts its usefulness and efficacy in immunocompromised patients. Surfactants have an amphiphilic character which indicates their ability to improve the water solubility of the hydrophobic drugs. Our research concerns the synthesis of new cationic Gemini surfactants that have the ability to improve the solubility of the drug Nanazoxide. So, we synthesized cationic Gemini surfactants. N1,N1,N3,N3-tetramethyl-N1,N3-bis(2-octadecanamidoethyl)propane-1,3-diaminium bromide (CGSPS18) and 2,2‘-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy))bis(N-(2-octadecanamidoethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-oxoethane-1-aminium) dichloride (CGSES18) and the detection of their chemical composition by spectroscopic methods, as well as studying the properties of their surfaces and their toxicity. Furthermore, the efficacy of nitazoxanide in infected mice was studied in conjunction with three different doses of surfactants. To assess the effect of nitazoxanide and surfactants, the infection was parasitologically counted before and after treatment, and the intestinal, liver, and lung tissues were also examined histopathologically. In this study, it was found that the combination of the drug nitazoxanide with surfactants, especially the compound (CGSPS18) at a concentration of 25% increased the efficacy and resulted in a percentage reduction of 90.8%. Histopathological examination revealed that the group treated with the drug nitazoxanide in combination with CGSPS18 showed the best results exhibiting an almost normal villous pattern. This study demonstrated an increase in the effectiveness of nitazoxanide when combined with surfactants, and this suggests a promising future for the use of surfactants as an adjunct to enhance the effectiveness of nitazoxanide for the treatment of cryptosporidiosis in immunocompromised patients, particularly HIV patients

Adsorption and Corrosion Performance of New Cationic Gemini Surfactants Derivatives of Fatty Amido Ethyl Aminium Chloride with Ester Spacer for Mild Steel in Acidic Solutions

Three new cationic gemini surfactants with ester spacer type 2-2′-(ethane-1,2-diyl bis(oxy)) bis(N-(2-alkanamidoethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-oxoethan-1-aminium)) dichloride) (CGSES12, CGSES14 and CGSES16), based on N,N-dimethyl fatty amido ethylamine, were produced. These gemini quaternary ammonium salts were synthesized using a three-step reaction method, starting from th/e condensation of the fatty acid chloride (RCOCl) of various hydrophobic chain lengths (R, C11H23, C13H27, C15H31) with N,N-dimethyl ethylene diamine, followed by the quaternization of the tertiary amino group formed with the spacer of the ester group formed in the second step. The chemical configuration of the surfactants was established by FT-IR, 1HNMR, 13CNMR and Mass spectroscopies. The inhibition performance of three surfactants was studied by weight loss and electrochemical measurements. The results show that CGSES12, CGSES14 and CGSES16 behave as effective inhibitors and surface agents. The maximum efficiency was higher than 94% at 2.5 mM, and the inhibition order was CGSES16 > CGSES14 > CGSES12. This was due to the increment in hydrophobicity of the gemini surfactants. Their adsorption on a mild steel surface followed the Langmuir isotherm. CGSES12, CGSES14 and CGSES16 can be considered mixed-type inhibitors. The presence of CGSES12, CGSES14 and CGSES16 increased charge transfer resistance and decreased the corrosion rate. The adsorption focused on heteroatoms and the surface properties of cationic gemini surfactants

Oleic acid-based compounds as lube oil additives for engine oil

The ongoing research focuses on preparing three compounds, based on oleic acid esters, through two steps to form 2-(3-acetylthioureido)-3-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl) propyl oleate (Compound A), 2-(3-acetyl thioureido)-2-(hydroxymethyl) propane-1,3-diyl dioleate (Compound B) and 2-(3-acetyl thioureido)-2-[(oleoyloxy) methyl] propane-1,3-diyl dioleate (Compound C). The chemical structure of the prepared compounds has been distinguished and ascertained using different spectroscopic techniques as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (1H and 13C NMR), quantum chemical study “theoretical studies”. The efficacy of the prepared compounds was ultimately scrutinized as lubricating oils’ additives. It gives excellent results as detergent/ dispersant additives. Both the experimental and theoretical quantum chemistry studies of antioxidant compounds yield insufficiently effective findings. The strength of the produced compounds shows that the one with three oleic groups is most effective when compared to one and two groups. Additionally, the dispersancy increases as the percentage of the dispersants rises from 0.25 to 1.5 %. Keep in mind that as time passes, dispersancy increases more. C > B > A, correspondingly, is the order in which the dispersancy percent decreases
