Preparation and preliminary quality evaluation of aspirin/L-glutamate compound pellets.

ABSTRACT: L-glutamate is an important component of protein. It can prevent gastrointestinal damage caused by NSAIDs. We constructed two-phase enteric-coated granules of aspirin and L-glutamate compound by extrusion spheronization method and fluidized bed coating. The subliminal effective dose of L-glutamate is 100 mg/kg tested by model of gastric ulcer of rats induced by aspirin and drug administration. HPLC-UV and UV-Vis methods were adopted to determine content and cumulative release of aspirin and L-glutamate as quality analysis method indexes. The prescription and process optimization were carried out with yield, sphericity and dissolution. The two-phase compound granules have good sphericity of 0.93 ± 0.05 (aspirin pellets) and 0.94 ± 0.02 (L-glutamate pellets), content of salicylic acid (0.24 ± 0.03)%, dissolution of aspirin (2.36 ± 0.11)%. Quality evaluation and preliminary stability meet the commercial requirements. The stored environment of compound preparation should be sealed in a cool and dark place.

Preparation and quality evaluation of potato steamed bread with wheat gluten.

Project description:The present study aimed to study the preparation and quality evaluation of potato steamed bread by using potato flour, wheat flour, and gluten at the presence of yeast and inorganic additives. As the rheological properties of the potato-wheat formulated flour negatively related to the potato flour, the potato-wheat formulated flour with 35% potato flour was set as the basic flour (100%). The effects of wheat gluten on the rheological properties of the dough were also evaluated, and gluten addition amount was set at 6.5%. The effects of yeast, sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, and monocalcium phosphate addition on steamed bread properties have been studied and optimized by orthogonal test. The obtained potato steamed bread formula was 100% basic flour (potato/wheat mass ratio of 35:65), 6.5% wheat gluten, 1.1% yeast, 1.4% NaHCO3, 0.75% citric acid, and 0.50% Ca(H2PO4)2. The prepared potato steamed bread has good sensory and texture properties, with natural potato flavor.

Preliminary Quality Evaluation and Characterization of Phenolic Constituents in Cynanchi Wilfordii Radix.

Project description:A new phenolic compound, 2-O-β-laminaribiosyl-4-hydroxyacetophenone (1), was isolated from Cynanchi Wilfordii Radix (CWR, the root of Cynanchum wilfordii Hemsley), along with 10 known aromatic compounds, including cynandione A (2), bungeisides-C (7) and -D (8), p-hydroxyacetophenone (9), 2',5'-dihydroxyacetophenone (10), and 2',4'-dihydroxyacetophenone (11). The structure of the new compound (1) was elucidated using spectroscopic methods and chemical methods. The structure of cynandione A (2), including a linkage mode of the biphenyl parts that remained uncertain, was unambiguously confirmed using the 2D 13C-13C incredible natural abundance double quantum transfer experiment (INADEQUATE) spectrum. Additionally, health issues related to the use of Cynanchi Auriculati Radix (CAR, the root of Cynanchum auriculatum Royle ex Wight) instead of CWR have emerged. Therefore, constituents present in methanolic extracts of commercially available CWRs and CARs were examined using UV-sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), resulting in common detection of three major peaks ascribed to cynandione A (2), p-hydroxyacetophenone (9), and 2',4'-dihydroxyacetophenone (11). Thus, to distinguish between these ingredients, a thin-layer chromatography (TLC) method, combined with only UV irradiation detection, focusing on wilfosides C1N (12) and K1N (13) as marker compounds characteristic of CAR, was performed. Furthermore, we propose this method as a simple and convenient strategy for the preliminary distinction of CWR and CAR to ensure the quality and safety of their crude drugs.

Biomass pellets for power generation in India: a techno-economic evaluation.

Project description:Modern bioenergy is being recognized as an increasingly important low-carbon resource by policy-makers around the world to meet climate policy targets. In India also, there is a clear recognition of the significant role of bioenergy in electricity generation as well as in other applications. In this study, a preliminary attempt has been made to assess the techno-economic feasibility of biomass pellets-based power (BPBP) generation in India. Surplus availability of biomass feedstock from agriculture and forestry/wasteland sector is estimated at 242 million tonnes (Mt) for 2010-11 and is expected to rise to 281 Mt in 2030-31 due to increased crop production and associated waste/residue availability. In terms of related capacity, the potential of BPBP projects is estimated at 35 GW for 2030-31. The associated carbon dioxide mitigation potential resulting from the substitution of coal is estimated at 205 Mt in 2030-31 if the entire biomass surplus is to be diverted for power generation. The levelized cost of electricity is estimated at €0.12 per kWh for BPBP projects as compared to €0.10 per kWh for imported coal based power plants. For states with the lower tariff for biomass power, the break-even price of carbon for BPBP projects is estimated at €18 per tonne. Additionally, BPBP projects will generate employment of more than 5 million person-months in the construction of biomass power plants and over 200,000 full-time employments in the operation of BPBP plants and in the production of biomass pellets.

The In Vitro Evaluation of Rooster Semen Pellets Frozen with Dimethylacetamide.

Project description:Sperm cryopreservation is an effective technique for conserving animal genetic diversity and transmitting superior genetic backgrounds, maintained via a non-invasive sampling and collection of huge quantities of sperm. Nevertheless, cryopreservation in avian species is not commercially viable because of the rooster sperm's susceptibility to damage. This study aims to estimate the impact of dimethylacetamide (DMA) as a cryoprotectant at different levels (3%, 6%, or 9%) on the post-thawed sperm quality, motility, antioxidant-biomarkers, and the expression of anti-freeze related genes. Semen samples were collected twice a week from twelve roosters aged 40 wk, weighing 3400 ± 70 g, and belonging to the Cairo-B2 chicken strain. Fresh semen samples were rapidly appraised, pooled, diluted with two volumes of a basic extender, and divided equally into three groups. The diluted groups were chilled at -20 °C for 7 min, then gently supplemented with 3, 6, or 9% pre-cooled DMA and equilibrated at 5 °C for a further 10 min. Semen pellets were formed by pipetting drops 7 cm above liquid nitrogen (LN2), which were then kept inside cryovials in the LN2. Thawing was performed 2 months later by taking 3-4 pellets of the frozen semen into a glass tube and warming it in a water bath for 8 s at 60 °C. The results showed that 3% DMA increased the proportion of total motile sperm, progressivity, viability, and plasma membrane integrity (%) compared to the 6% and 9% DMA groups. The lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme activity were improved in the 3% group. At the same time, some anti-freeze-related genes' (including ras homolog family member A (RHOA), heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), and small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide A (SNRPA1)) expressions were upregulated within the 3% DMA group relative to other groups. In conclusion, the 3% DMA group maintained higher post-thawed sperm quality than the other tested groups.

Systematic evaluation of RNA-Seq preparation protocol performance (RNASeq: TruSeq)

Project description:In this study, we present a comprehensive evaluation of four RNA-Seq library preparation methods. We used three standard input protocols, the Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA and TruSeq Stranded mRNA kits, and a modified NuGEN Ovation v2 kit; and an ultra-low-input RNA protocol, the TaKaRa SMARTer Ultra Low RNA Kit v3. Our evaluation of these kits included quality control measures such as overall reproducibility, 5’ and 3’ end-bias, and the identification of DEGs, lncRNAs, and alternatively spliced transcripts. Overall, we found that the two Illumina kits were most similar in terms of recovering DEGs, and the Illumina, modified NuGEN, and TaKaRa kits allowed identification of a similar set of DEGs. However, we also discovered that the Illumina, NuGEN and TaKaRa kits each enriched for different sets of genes.

Development and preliminary evaluation of a quality of life measure targeted at dementia caregivers.

Project description:BackgroundProviding care for individuals with a progressive, debilitating condition such as dementia can adversely impact the quality of life (QOL) of informal caregivers. To date, there is no existing caregiver quality of life measure for dementia caregivers with breadth of coverage or that is applicable to caregivers of diverse ethnic backgrounds. The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate a caregiver-targeted quality-of-life measure (CGQOL) for informal caregivers of persons with dementia that can be used with caregivers from a variety of ethnicities.Methods91 items were field tested by telephone interviews with 179 English-speaking and 21 monolingual Spanish-speaking caregivers of persons with dementia. Repeat interviews were conducted with 71 caregivers. Administration time, scale score distributions, item-scale correlations, reliability, and associations of scales with patient and caregiver demographic and caregiving characteristics were estimated. Structure of associations among scales was examined using exploratory factor analysis.ResultsItem analysis yielded 80 items distributed across 10 scales, with median administration time of 17 minutes [IQR 13.5-22 minutes] and minimal missing data. There were few floor or ceiling effects in scale score distributions. Internal consistency reliability was >or= 0.78 for all scales; test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation) estimates exceeded 0.70 for 6 scales. More hours weekly spent in caregiving was uniquely associated with worse quality of life on 8 scales (p's <or= 0.05). Three higher-order dimensions of caregiving assistance, emotional and social concerns, and spirituality and benefits were identified.ConclusionThese preliminary results support subsequent evaluation of test-retest reliability, construct validity, and responsiveness to change of this quality-of-life measure for caregivers from diverse ethnicities.

The discovery of a novel compound with potent antitumor activity: virtual screening, synthesis, biological evaluation and preliminary mechanism study.

Project description:Farnesyltransferase has been regarded as a promising drug target against cancer as it is critical for membrane association of several signal transduction proteins. In this study, a novel farnesyltransferase inhibitor (IMB-1406) was identified through virtual screening. It exhibits stronger potency (IC50s: 6.92-8.99 μM) than Sunitinib against all of the tested cancer cell lines. Preliminary studies on mechanism reveal that IMB-1406 induces apoptosis in HepG2 cells by arresting the cell cycle at the S phase, altering anti- and pro-apoptotic proteins leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and activation of caspase-3. This anti-tumor effect is most probably related to the inhibition of farnesyltransferase as indicated by molecular docking. Overall, IMB-1406 is a novel lead compound with potent antitumor activity and deserves further structural modifications.
