RP-HPLC Method Development and Validation for Simultaneous Estimation of Duloxetin and Methylcobalamine in Combined Dosage Form

A simple, precise, accurate, simultaneous stability indicating RP-HPLC method for the estimation of DLU (Duloxetin) and MCB (Methylcobalamine) in combined dosage form was developed using Intersil-C18 (4.6 x 250mm, 5m) in an Isocratic mode with mobile phase comprising of Phosphate buffer (pH 4.5) The flow rate was 1 mL/ min and effluent was monitored at 255.0 nm. The retention times were found to be 5.32 min for DLU and 3.59 min for MCB. The assay exhibited a linear dynamic range of 20- 120 g/mL for DLU and 10- 60 g/mL for MCB. The calibration curves were linear (r 2 = 0.999 for DLU and r 2 = 0.999 for MCB) over the entire linear range. Mean % recovery was found to be 99.68 % for DLU and 100.3 % for MCB with % RSD was NMT 2 for both estimations which fully agrees with system suitability which is in good agreement with labeled amount of formulation. The % RSD for Intra- Day and Inter-Day Precision was NMT than 2 for both the drugs. The developed method was validated as per ICH guidelines

Simple, economical and flexible apparatus for solid phase peptide synthesis

1143-1147Solid phase peptide synthesis basically involves repetitive deblocking and coupling reactions. In order to make these repetitive operations fast and convenient, the deblocking and coupling reactions are carried out in specially designed apparatus, which are called solid phase peptide synthesis apparatus. These apparatus are expensive, hence unaffordable for many laboratories. In addition, these apparatus lack the operational flexibility for varying reaction parameters such as reaction time, temperature, pressure, sonication, microwave irradiation, etc. In order to make peptide synthesis convenient and flexible with respect to reaction conditions and affordable for many laboratories, a two-vessel approach has been proposed. In this approach, coupling reaction is carried out in a round bottom flask with overhead stirrer, and the filtration (work-up) is carried out in a specially designed filtration-vessel. Using the two-vessel approach, D-Met-enkephalins (pentapeptides, Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-D-Met) and some of its derivatives involving lengthy reactions have been synthesized on Merrifield resin. This approach is very convenient for studying variations in reaction conditions and is good for synthesizing short peptides (<10 amino acids). By this approach 1-100 g resin can be handled in a laboratory without any additional cost. This approach can be extrapolated to solid phase syntheses as well

Synthesis of benzoxazoles via intramolecular cyclization of ortho-halobenzanilides using copper fluorapatite catalyst

An efficient method for the synthesis of benzoxazoles via intramolecular cyclization of ortho-haloanilides using heterogeneous copper fluorapatite catalyst is described. A variety of ortho-haloanilides (iodo-, bromo- and chloroanilides) were cyclized to the corresponding benzoxazoles, demonstrating the versatility of the ­reaction

Knock-Down of the IFR1 Protein Perturbs the Homeostasis of Reactive Electrophile Species and Boosts Photosynthetic Hydrogen Production in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

The protein superfamily of short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR), including members of the atypical type (aSDR), covers a huge range of catalyzed reactions and in vivo substrates. This superfamily also comprises isoflavone reductase-like (IRL) proteins, which are aSDRs highly homologous to isoflavone reductases from leguminous plants. The molecular function of IRLs in non-leguminous plants and green microalgae has not been identified as yet, but several lines of evidence point at their implication in reactive oxygen species homeostasis. The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii IRL protein IFR1 was identified in a previous study, analyzing the transcriptomic changes occurring during the acclimation to sulfur deprivation and anaerobiosis, a condition that triggers photobiological hydrogen production in this microalgae. Accumulation of the cytosolic IFR1 protein is induced by sulfur limitation as well as by the exposure of C. reinhardtii cells to reactive electrophile species (RES) such as reactive carbonyls. The latter has not been described for IRL proteins before. Over-accumulation of IFR1 in the singlet oxygen response 1 (sor1) mutant together with the presence of an electrophile response element, known to be required for SOR1-dependent gene activation as a response to RES, in the promoter of IFR1, indicate that IFR1 expression is controlled by the SOR1-dependent pathway. An implication of IFR1 into RES homeostasis, is further implied by a knock-down of IFR1, which results in a diminished tolerance toward RES. Intriguingly, IFR1 knock-down has a positive effect on photosystem II (PSII) stability under sulfur-deprived conditions used to trigger photobiological hydrogen production, by reducing PSII-dependent oxygen evolution, in C. reinhardtii. Reduced PSII photoinhibition in IFR1 knock-down strains prolongs the hydrogen production phase resulting in an almost doubled final hydrogen yield compared to the parental strain. Finally, IFR1 knock-down could be successfully used to further increase hydrogen yields of the high hydrogen-producing mutant stm6, demonstrating that IFR1 is a promising target for genetic engineering approaches aiming at an increased hydrogen production capacity of C. reinhardtii cells
