In the present paper, hydroxyapatite and structurally modified hydroxyapatite were investigated to establish the best material for nicotinic acid adsorption. Structurally modified hydroxyapatite wa prepared by adding sodium silicate in the reaction medium. The influence of silica concentration, presence of small amounts of metal ions, temperature and initial concentrations of nicotinic acid solutions on the adsorption capacity, were studied. Results indicated that structurally modified hydroxyapatite doped with copper adsorbed the highest amount of nicotinic acid. For this material the adsorption capacity was 0.232 mg nicotinic acid / g material, at an initial concentration of 10−4 M nicotinic acid. For all types of materials, best results were obtained at 15°C. The amount of nicotinic acid adsorbed increases with the decrease in temperature and with the increase in the initial concentration of nicotinic acid. Adsorption kinetics data were modeled using pseudo-first and pseudo-second order models while the interference due to diffusion was analyzed with intraparticle diffusion model. The results indicate that pseudo-second order model best describes the adsorption kinetics data, indicating the formation of chemical bonding. The materials used in this study were characterized by the following methods: IR, Coulter Counter analyzer, Scanning Electron Microscope and BET

We studied the release of nicotinic acid from a macromolecular pro-drug containing niacin bound to a polymeric support of dextran. Using a modified High-performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method to provide an improved separation between nicotinic acid and its metabolites, we compared the plasma levels of nicotinic acid 24 h after administration of the pro-drug or a similar dose of unbound nicotinic acid to rats. Nicotinic acid exerts a number of pharmacological activities among which is the hypolipidemic effect. To determine the hypolipidemic effect of the pro-drug, we measured the triglyceride levels and examined the correlation with the plasma levels of nicotinic acid.Starting 6 h after administration of the pro-drug, the plasma levels of nicotinic acid were high enough to cause a decrease in the triglyceride level. These results suggest that nicotinic acid was gradually released from the polymeric support, leading to the sustained presence of the active substance and, therefore, a reduction in the level of triglycerides.

This article reports the synthesis of novel, rare-earth coordination complexes with nicotinic acid. Three compounds with the general formula Ln2[(C5H4NCOO)6(H2O)4] (Ln = Yb, 1; Ln = Gd, 2; Ln = Nd, 3) were prepared from relatively cheap and readily available reactants. Their compositions and structure were characterized by IR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The magnetic and thermogravimetric properties were also studied. The complexes consist of centrosymetric, dimeric molecules having all six nicotinato ligands coordinated with the central atom in the bidentate mode. The coordination environment of the Ln3+ for all three compounds is 8. Here we describe the crystal structure of Yb and Gd complexes with nicotinic acid.
