[en] MICELLAR LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY WITH FLUORIMETRIC DETECTION FOR THE DETERMINATION OF SIX B-CARBOLINE ALKALOIDS AND GALANTAMINE IN THE PRESENCE OF ITS MAJOR METABOLITES / [pt] DESENVOLVIMENTO DE MÉTODOS UTILIZANDO CROMATOGRAFIA LÍQUIDA MICELAR (MLC) COM DETECÇÃO FLUORIMÉTRICA PARA A DETERMINAÇÃO DE SEIS ALCALOIDES B-CARBOLINAS E PARA GALANTAMINA EM PRESENÇA DOS SEUS PRINCIPAIS METABÓLITOSANA PAULA LAMOUNIER 08 July 2016 (has links)
[pt] Métodos baseados na cromatografia líquida micelar (MLC) com detecção fluorimétrica foram desenvolvidos para dois estudos de caso. No primeiro deles, seis B-carbolinas (harmol, harmalol, harmane, norharmane, harmine e harmaline) foram plenamente separadas de modo a se aplicar o método para a determinação dos alcaloides em formulações de Passiflora incarnata L., extrato seco de Passiflora alata Dryander e em urina. A separação foi realizada em coluna cromatográfica C18, utilizando fase móvel tamponada (pH 8,0) contendo 220 mmol L-1 de dodecilsulfato de sódio (SDS)/acetonitrila (97/3 por cento v/v). A detecção fluorimétrica permitiu que se atingissem limites de detecção (LOD) abaixo de 3,6 ng g-1 com repetibilidade e precisão intermediária entre 0,1 e 5 por cento. As incertezas combinadas associadas à concentração das B-carbolinas ficaram entre 1 e 9 por cento. O método proposto foi comparado ao método baseado na cromatografia eletrocinética micelar (MEKC) com detecção absorciométrica e os resultados com MLC se mostraram superiores do ponto de vista da capacidade de detecção (por serem os alcaloides naturalmente muito fluorescentes) e de recuperação. Para as amostras de fitoterápicos, o harmol foi quantificado tanto nas amostras de medicamento de Passiflora incarnata quanto em urina de voluntário após a administração de fitoterápico. O harmine foi detectado apenas na amostra de medicamento. Os alcaloides norharmane, harmine e harmaline foram identificados no chá misto de Maracujá, no qual continha em sua composição extrato seco de Passiflora alata Dryander. Na segunda abordagem, um método por MLC foi desenvolvido para a determinação de galantamina e de seus principais metabólitos (N-desmetil galantamina, O-desmetil galantamina, epigalantamina e N-óxido galantamina). A separação da galantamina e dos metabólitos foi feita utilizando coluna cromatográfica C18 com porosidade de 300 angstroms e fase móvel constituída de tampão (pH 5,0) contendo 25 mmol L-1 de SDS/acetonitrila (97/3 por cento v/v). A detecção fluorimétrica permitiu limites de detecção abaixo de 343 ng g-1,
repetibilidade e precisão intermediária entre 2,2 e 4 por cento. As incertezas combinadas associadas à concentração de galantamina e dos metabólitos ficaram entre 0,3 e 11 por cento. Ensaios de recuperação foram realizados em amostra de urina fortificada com padrões da galantamina e metabólitos e os resultados obtidos ficaram entre de 91,4 e 114,8 por cento. A comparação entre o método por MLC e o método por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência com fase reversa foram feitas com amostras de medicamento cujo princípio ativo era o hidrobrometo de galantamina. Os resultados dos teores de galantamina e as variâncias das medidas obtidas por ambos os métodos foram estatisticamente iguais. A sensibilidade da curva analítica obtida por MLC foi duas vezes maior do que a encontrada por cromatografia por fase reversa. Análises de urina de ratos coletadas após a administração do medicamento foram realizadas com o método proposto, sendo que a galantamina mais os metabólitos N-óxido galantamina e N-desmetil galantamina foram identificados nas amostras. Para melhor avaliar o efeito de amplificação de fluorescência da galantamina pelo ambiente organizado, experimentos foram feitos com a separação cromatográfica de fase reversa e com a adição de solução rica em micelas de SDS após a passagem do analito pela coluna cromatográfica. As condições de separação incluíram o uso de coluna cromatográfica C18, fase móvel constituída por tampão (pH 5,0) contendo 2 por cento de propano-2-ol (v/v)/ acetonitrila (80/20 por cento v/v). A solução micelar de SDS (100 mmol L-1), misturada à fase móvel após a coluna cromatográfica, foi preparada com a mesma composição da fase móvel. A sensibilidade da curva analítica de galantamina foi três vezes maior quando o meio micelar foi usado. O resultado prova que o ambiente micelar favorece a medição fluorimétrica de galantam / [en] Methods based on micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) with fluorimetric detection have been developed for two case studies. In the first, six B-carbolines (harmol, harmalol, harmane, norharmane, harmine and harmaline) were fully separated allowing the application of the method for the determination of these alkaloids in Passiflora incarnata L. formulations, in Passiflora alata Dryander dry extract and in urine. The chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column using a buffered mobile phase consisting of disodium hydrogen phosphate (pH 8.0) containing 220 mmol L-1 of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)/acetonitrile (97/3 percent v/v). The fluorimetric detection allowed limits of detection (LOD) below than 3.6 ng g-1 to be achieved with intermediary precision and repeatability between 0.1 and 5 percent. The calculated combined uncertainties of the concentration of B-carbolines were between 1 and 9 percent. The proposed method was compared with the method based on micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) with absortionmetric detection. The MLC results were superior from the viewpoint of the detection power (since they are very fluorescent alkaloids) and also in terms of recovery. The harmol was quantified in Passiflora incarnata phitotherapic samples and in urine collected from a voluntary after of the administration of herbal medicine. The harmine was detected only in the phitotherapic sample. The norharmane, harmine and harmaline alkaloids were identified in Passion Fruit tea, which contained dry extract of Passiflora alata Dryander. In the second approach, a method for MLC was developed for the determination of galantamine and its main metabolites (N-demethyl galantamine, O-demethyl galantamine, epigalantamine and N-oxide galantamine). The separation was performed using a C18 chromatography column with porosity of 300 angstroms and with mobile phase consisting of buffer (pH 5.0) containing SDS (25 mmol L-1)/acetonitrile (97/3 percent v/v). The fluorimetric detection enabled LOD below 343 ng g-1 with intermediate precision and repeatability between 2.2 and 4 percent. Combined
uncertainties for concentration of galantamine and metabolites were between 0.3 and 11 percent. Recovery experiments were performed on urine samples fortified with galantamine standards and metabolites with results between 91.4 and 114.8 percent. A comparison between the proposed MLC method and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography was made using medicine samples containing galantamine hydrobromide as the active principle. Galantamine levels and variances achieved with these methods were statistically equal. The analytical curve sensitivity by MLC was two times higher than that found with reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. Analysis of rat urine, collected after the administration of the medicine, were performed with the proposed method enabling the identification of galantamine, N-oxide galantamine and N-demethyl galantamine. To better evaluate the fluorescence amplification effect of galantamine in the organized environment, experiments were made with conventional chromatographic separation and post-column addition of the aqueous solution rich in micelles. The separation conditions included the use of C18 chromatographic column, mobile phase consisting of buffer (pH 5.0) containing 2 percent of propan-2-ol (v/v)/acetonitrile (80/20 percent v/v). The micellar solution of SDS (100 mmol L-1), added after the chromatographic column, was prepared with the same composition of the mobile phase. The column temperature was 25 degrees C and the sample volume was 20 uL. The sensitivity of the analytical curve of galantamine was three times higher when the micellar solution was mixed, proving that the organized environment favors the galantamine fluorescence even at flow regime. Recoveries with or without post-column mixing with the micelle rich solution were between 97.5 and 102.2 percent.

Selective Retention of β-Carbolines and 7,12-Dimethylbenz[<i>a</i>]anthracene in the Brain : Role of Neuromelanin and Cytochrome P450 for ToxicityÖstergren, Anna January 2005 (has links)
<p>The ß-carbolines norharman and harman structurally resemble the synthetic compound 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) that is known for its ability to damage neuromelanin-containing dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra and thereby induce parkinsonism. MPTP is, however, not normally present in the environment whereas the ß-carbolines are present in cooked food and tobacco smoke. </p><p>In this thesis it was demonstrated that norharman and harman had affinity to melanin and were retained in neuromelanin-containing neurons of frogs up to 30 days post-injection (the longest survival time examined). It was also demonstrated that norharman induced neurodegeneration, activation of glia cells and motor impairment in mice. Furthermore, this compound induced ER stress and cell death in PC12 cells. An in vitro model of dopamine melanin-loaded PC12 cells was developed in order to study the effect of melanin on norharman-induced toxicity. In this model, melanin seemed to attenuate toxicity induced by low concentrations of norharman. After exposure to the highest concentration of norharman, melanin clusters were disaggregated and there was an increased expression of stress proteins and caspases-3, known to be involved in apoptosis.</p><p>The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, 7,12-dimethylbenz[<i>a</i>]anthracene was demonstrated to have a CYP1A1-dependent localization in endothelial cells in the choroid plexus, in the veins in the leptomeninges and in the cerebral veins of mice pre-treated with CYP1-inducers. </p><p>These results demonstrate that the distribution of environmental compounds could be influenced by the presence of neuromelanin and expression of CYP enzymes in the brain and that norharman may induce neurotoxic effects in vivo and in vitro.</p>
