This study investigates the contribution of deformational strain imposed by topological interconversions of DNA in ethidium bromide-binding on agarose gels. Closed-circular plasmid DNAs were nicked using UV exposure and the DNA bands were quantified by densitometry. The results show that the closed circular DNA binds the same amount of the dye as its nicked counterpart. The relationship between the band intensity on X-ray films of chemiluminescence-detected Southern blots and DNA concentration was shown to be linear.

Simple, sensitive, precise and accurate HPLC, densitometric and videodensitometric methods for determination of lamotrigine in tablet forms were developed and validated. The HPLC method was carried out using a Symmetry C8 column and a mobile phase acetonitrile-phosphate buffer pH 2.80 (25:75, v/v), with a flow rate of 1 mL/min, and UV detection at 210 nm. Ethosuximide was used as the internal standard. Densitometric and videodensitometric analysis was performed on silica gel 60 F254 plates, in horizontal chambers, with methanol-chloroform-ammonia (25%) 1.5:7.5:1, (v/v) as mobile phase. Densitometric detection was performed at 225 nm and at 315 nm, and videodeoscanning at 254 nm. Calibration plots were constructed in the range 0.5-10 μg/spot, with good correlation coefficients r > 0.99 for both methods. The precision and accuracy of all elaborated methods were compared. Finally, the developed methods were applied for the quality control of lamotrigine tablets.

A quite simple and rapid TLC-densitometric method for the identification of α-escin (Aescin) in bulk drug substances was developed. In so doing, different chromatographic conditions, including various mobile and stationary phases, were tested. A TLC densitometric determination of the examined compound was performed without using visualizing reagent, yet with the use of appropriate dipping reagents, in order to obtain reliable UV-densitometric measurements of α-escin - a substance which has weak chromophore groups. Herein, the application of a mobile phase containing n-butanolacetic acid-water in volume composition 30:7:13, the use of silica gel 60F254 plates with concentrating zone, and subsequent application of 10% sulphuric acid in ethanol or 5% vanillin in methanol/sulphuric acid, respectively, provided the best results in a TLCdensitometric study of α-escin. The described method was successfully employed to identify α-escin in commercial samples that were in an oral dosage form (tablets) and also in the form of gel containing 20 mg of α-escin.

Background: Nutrition influence on cystic fibrosis (CF) patients survival is well documented and dietary therapy is one of basic elements of their treatment. Prolonged survival of CF patients might yet emerge comorbidities, which include bone mineral disease. The aim: The assessment of the dietary pattern and its relationship between bone density in boys and girls with cystic fibrosis. Material and methods: 89 patients aged 10-18 years from 3 Polish CF Centres were included into the study. To obtain a knowledge about quality of diet, a 3-day food record was assessed and percent of recommended for CF patients intake of energy, protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamin D3, calcium, phosphorus was counted. Bone mineral density (BMD) in lumbar spine (L1-L4) was measured and expressed as a Z-score. To assess nutritional status, anthropometric measurements was evaluated (body weight, height and BMI). Descriptive methods, Mann-Whitney test, T-Student test, Spearman correlation and one-way ANOVA were used for statistical analyses. Results: The patients with cystic fibrosis did not meet specific for CF nutritional guidelines. A deficiency in recommended intake was observed in energy (88%), protein (82%), calcium (78%) and vitamin D3 (71%). The intake of phosphorus was higher than recommended (142%). A nutritional status was significantly reduced, as compared with the reference group (p<0.001). Boys characterized significantly lower body weight (p=0.019) and height (p=0.036) than girls as well as worse caloric (p=0.023) and carbohydrates intake (p=0.005). However, girls had reduced vitamin D3 content in their diet (p<0.001). The bone mineral density in the whole group was reduced and Z-score amounted to -0.95±1.17. Tendency to decreasing of BMD with age was observed. BMI showed important correlation with bone mineral density both in girls (p<0.001) and in boys (p=0.020). Conclusion: CF patients do not follow specific for them dietary recommendations and essential differences were observed between girls and boys. Nutritional status (BMI) showed correlation with bone mineral density in CF patients. Therefore intensive nutritional therapy according to recommendations is needed.

Wprowadzenie: Wpływ żywienia na długość życia chorych z mukowiscydozą (ang. Cystic Fibrosis − CF) jest dobrze udokumentowany, a postępowanie dietetyczne jest jednym z podstawowych elementów leczenia pacjentów z CF. Systematyczne wydłużanie się wieku przeżycia chorych może powodować ujawienie się niedoborów żywieniowych prowadzących do chorób towarzyszących, jakimi są m.in. zaburzenia w gospodarce mineralnej kości. Cel: Celem pracy była ocena sposobu żywienia dziewcząt i chłopców z mukowiscydozą i jego związku z gęstością mineralną kości. Materiał imetody: Do badania włączono 89 pacjentów wwieku 10-18 lat. Wcelu ustalenia jakości diety, oceniono sposób żywienia za pomocą zapisu 3-dniowych jadłospisów, obliczając procent realizacji zapotrzebowania zgodnie z rekomendacjami opracowanymi dla pacjentów z mukowiscydozą. Dotyczyło to pokrycia zapotrzebowania kalorycznego, białka, tłuszczu, węglowodanów, witaminy D3, wapnia i fosforu. Oceniono gęstość mineralną kości (Bone Mineral Density − BMD) w odcinku lędźwiowym (L1-L4). Wynik wyrażono, jako wartość standaryzowaną Z-score. W celu określenia stanu odżywienia dokonano pomiarów antropometrycznych (masa i wysokość ciała oraz BMI). Wykonano następujące obliczenia statystyczne: analizy opisowe, test Manna-Whitneya, test t-Studenta, korelację Spearmana, oraz jednoczynnikową analizę wariancji ANOVA. Wyniki: Badani pacjenci nie spełniali opracowanych dla chorych na mukowiscydozę zaleceń żywieniowych. W diecie zaobserwowano niedobory energii (88% normy), białka (82%), wapnia (78%) oraz witaminy D3 (71%). Wykazano nadmierne spożycie fosforu (142%). Stan odżywienia (parametry antropometryczne) badanej grupy był obniżony i w sposób statystycznie istotny różnił się od grupy referencyjnej (p<0,001). Chłopcy charakteryzowali się znacznie niższą masą ciała (p=0,019) iwysokością (p=0,036) niż dziewczęta, a także niższą kalorycznością diety (p=0,023) oraz zawartością węglowodanów (p=0,005). Dietę dziewcząt cechowała mniejsza zawartość witaminy D3 w diecie (p<0,001) w porównaniu do chłopców. Średnia wartość gęstości mineralnej kości w całej grupie była obniżona i wynosiła -0,95±1,17. Zaobserwowano tendencję do obniżania się BMD wraz z wiekiem. Stan odżywienia wyrażony jako BMI wykazał statystycznie istotną korelację z gęstością mineralną kości, zarówno u dziewcząt (p<0,001), jak i u chłopców (p=0,020). Wnioski: Pacjenci z CF nie przestrzegali opracowanych dla nich zaleceń dietetycznych. Zaobserwowano istotne różnice między dziewczętami i chłopcami. Stan odżywienia (BMI), wykazał korelację z gęstością mineralną kości (BMD), co wymaga intensywnej terapii żywieniowej, zgodnie z opracowanymi rekomendacjami.

Desloratadine is a biologically active compound that is not described in the Polish Pharmacopoeia IX, hence, its study is particular important. The aim of this work was to establish a procedure for desloratadine analysis by way of HPTLC in combination with densitometry, so as to be able to ascertain its presence and degree of presence within pharmaceutical preparations. In our work, a mixture of ethyl acetate, n-butanol, ammonia and methanol was used as the mobile phase. Moreover, HPTLC plates precoated with silica gel 60F254 were also employed. The proposed method was tested and subsequently validated. Spectrodensitometric analysis was then performed to determine the optimal wavelength for the quantitative determination (λ=276 nm), and following this, a quantitative analysis of desloratadine within certain pharmaceutical preparations was performed. Our research also took into consideration an analysis of the products of desloratadine decomposition that come about as a result of the accelerated aging of its solutions. The employed procedure for accelerating the aging of such desloratadine solutions consisted of heating these at 40℃ and then irradiating the solution surfaces with UV light. The changing color of these solutions after 2 hours of exposure served to indicate that degradation had occurred. Of note: as a result of irradiation with UV light, desloratadine content was seen to decrease with time, declining to almost zero after 30 hours. However, heating a solution of desloratadine alone did not induce a change in its content. Solutions of desloratadine that had previously undergone irradiation and heating were also analyzed to ascertain whether new substances were present. For this purpose, the GC-MS process was employed. As a result of this procedure, the spectrum of the solution after aging showed the presence of several new peaks that displayed retention several times larger and smaller than the normal desloratadine peak.
