Silica microparticles made of diatomaceous earth have become particularly attractive materials for designing drug delivery systems. In order to investigate the use of natural diatoms as drug scaffolds for carbon monoxide releasing molecules (CORMs), we evaluated the chemisorption of the cis-[Re(CO)2Br4]2− complex (ReCORM-2) and its vitamin B12 derivative (B12-ReCORM-2) on Coscinodiscus frustules by 3D FT-IR spectroscopic imaging, and the drugs’ neovascularization effects in vivo in the zebrafish (Danio rerio) model. By mapping the symmetric Re-C≡O υ(CO) stretching vibration of the CORMs in the 2000 cm−1 region, we found that the drugs are mostly localized at the girdle band of the diatom frustule. Both ReCORM-2 and B12-ReCORM-2 retain their CO-releasing ability when chemisorbed on the diatoms. When applied in vivo at doses ≥25 µM, the molecules markedly reduced intersegmental and subintestinal vessels development in zebrafish, revealing high anti-angiogenic potential. In addition, diatom frustules did not provoke any toxic in vivo response in the zebrafish embryos, including inflammation. Overall, our results indicate that: (1) CORMs chemisorbed on diatom frustules retain their CO-releasing abilities; (2) both CO-releasing molecules show a concentration-dependent effect on the neovascularization in developing zebrafish; (3) silicate frustules are not toxic and could be used as CORMs drug carriers.

The adsorption of 1,5-pentanedithiol (1,5-PDT) and 1,6-hexanedithiol (1,6-HDT) in liquid phases on NaA (or 4A-type), CaA (or 5A-type) and NaY zeolites has been studied by using infrared spectroscopy. From the IR spectra it is found that the peak positions of the symmetric as well as the antisymmetric modes of the methylene (CH2) groups are observed at almost the same band values for the title dithiolates adsorbed on the A-type and NaY zeolites. On the other hand, the weak SH stretching vibration, observed for all samples, can be attributed to the sulphure atoms of 1,5-PDT and 1,6-HDT coordinatively adsorbed on cationic sites of the zeolites.

Glycogen levels in human lung and colorectal cancerous tissues were measured by the Fourier transform (FT-IR) spectroscopic method. Reliability of this method was confirmed by chemical analyses of the same tissues used for the FT-IR spectroscopic measurements, suggesting that this spectroscopic method has a high specificity and sensitivity in discriminating human cancerous tissues from noncancerous tissues. The glycogen levels in the tissues were compared with the clinical, histological and histopathological factors of the cancer, demonstrating that glycogen is a critical factor in understanding the biological nature of neoplastic diseases. Furthermore, direct measurement of a very small amount of tissue by a FT-IR microscope suggested that it could be used as a diagnostic instrument for various tissue samples obtained via a fine needle biopsy procedure. The progressive alterations in rat mammary gland tumors were investigated by a near-infrared (NIR) spectrometer with a fiber optic probe. A lipid band due to the first overtone ofn-alkane was used to quantitatively evaluate malignant changes in the tumors. NIR spectroscopy may offer the potential for non‒invasive,in vivodiagnosis of human cancers.

Growth of optically transparent single crystals of thiourea succinic acid (TUSA) was grown successfully from aqueous solution by slow evaporation technique. The crystal structure was elucidated using the single crystal XRD. The various functional groups and the modes of vibrations were identified by FT-IR spectroscopic analysis. The optical absorption studies indicate that the optical transparency window is quite wide making its suitable for NLO applications. Thermal stability of the crown crystal carried out by TGA-DTA analysis.

The kinetics of the reduction of nitrogen oxide by carbon monoxide on CuO/Al2O3 catalyst (8.36 mass % CuO) were determined at temperatures between 413 and 473 K. The reaction was found to be first order in NO and zero order in CO. The observed kinetics are consistent with a rate equation derived from a mechanism proposed on the basis of IR spectroscopic measurements.

The therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSC) for treating cardiac ischemia strongly depends on their paracrine-mediated effects and their engraftment capacity in a hostile environment such as the infarcted myocardium. Adipose tissue-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells are a mixed population composed mainly of MSC and vascular cells, well known for their high angiogenic potential. A previous study showed that the angiogenic potential of SVF cells was further increased following their in vitro organization in an engineered tissue (patch) after perfusion-based bioreactor culture. This study aimed to investigate the possible changes in the cellular SVF composition, in vivo angiogenic potential, as well as engraftment capability upon in vitro culture in harsh hypoxia conditions. This mimics the possible delayed vascularization of the patch upon implantation in a low perfused myocardium. To this purpose, human SVF cells were seeded on a collagen sponge, cultured for 5 days in a perfusion-based bioreactor under normoxia or hypoxia (21% and <1% of oxygen tension, respectively) and subcutaneously implanted in nude rats for 3 and 28 days. Compared to ambient condition culture, hypoxic tension did not alter the SVF composition in vitro, showing similar numbers of MSC as well as endothelial and mural cells. Nevertheless, in vitro hypoxic culture significantly increased the release of vascular endothelial growth factor (p < 0.001) and the number of proliferating cells (p < 0.00001). Moreover, compared to ambient oxygen culture, exposure to hypoxia significantly enhanced the vessel length density in the engineered tissues following 28 days of implantation. The number of human cells and human proliferating cells in hypoxia-cultured constructs was also significantly increased after 3 and 28 days in vivo, compared to normoxia. These findings show that a possible in vivo delay in oxygen supply might not impair the vascularization potential of SVF- patches, which qualifies them for evaluation in a myocardial ischemia model.

Abstract Background Environment-friendly fast and accurate mid-infrared spectroscopic methods have been developed for the quantitative analysis of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and arterolane maleate (ALM) in bulk and marketed formulations. Both transmittance and reflectance modes have been used for the analysis and a comparison has been drawn for better accuracy. The analytical methods were validated in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines Results The proposed methods have been successfully developed and validated for the quantification of doxorubicin and arterolane maleate in solid bulk and dosage form. High recovery values in both the modes, while analysing DOX and ALM, indicated good accuracy of the methods. The methods showed excellent repeatability and intermediate precision [% RSD (Relative Standard Deviation < 2.0%]. The assay values of the drugs in solid dosage forms were also found close to the labelled claim. Conclusion The proposed Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic methods were found to be specific, reproducible, valid and could be used as general methods for the quantification of most of the solid drug preparations such as tablets, capsules and powders.
