11	Transfer of small molecules across membrane-mimetic interfaces Velicky, Matej January 2011 (has links) The presented thesis investigates the transfer of drug molecules across interfaces that mimic biological membrane barriers. The permeability of drug molecules across biological membrane mimics has been investigated in a novel artificial membrane permeation assay configuration using an in situ time-dependent approach and reproducible rotation of the membrane. A method to determine the membrane permeability from the knowledge of measured permeability and the applied stirring rate is presented. The initial transient of the permeation response, previously not observed in situ, is investigated and its importance in data evaluation is discussed. The permeability coefficients of 31 drugs are optimised for the conditions found in vivo and a correlation with the fraction absorbed in humans is presented. The evidence for ionic and/or ion-pair flux across the artificial membrane obtained from measurement of permeability at different pH is supported by the investigation of the permeation assay with external membrane polarisation. The permeability coefficient of the solute's anionic form is determined. Liquid/liquid electrochemistry has been used to study the transfer of ionized species across the interface between water and 1,2-dichloroethane. An alternative method to study the transfer of partially ionised drug molecules employing a rotating liquid/liquid interface is presented. In addition, a bipolar electrochemical cell with a rotating-disc electrode is developed and its properties investigated in order to verify the hydrodynamics of the rotating artificial membrane configuration. Finally, in support of the electrochemical techniques used is this thesis, a detailed preparation and evaluation of the silver/silver sulphate reference electrode is presented. 571.64

Dans la première partie de ce travail, l’interface liquide – liquide macroscopique a été utilisée pour séparer la solution aqueuse de l'espèce de précurseur de silice hydrolysées (tétraéthoxysilane (TEOS)) de l'agent tensioactif cationique (cethyltrimethylammonium (CTA+) qui a agi comme un template et a été dissous dans le dichloroéthane. Le dépôt de matériau de silice a été déclenchée par le transfert du CTA+ à partir de la phase organique vers la phase aqueuse. CTA+ qui a transféré à la phase aqueuse a catalysé la réaction de condensation de la silice sur l’interface liquide – liquide. Le dépôt de silice à des interfaces liquide – liquide miniaturisées était la deuxième partie de ce travail. Les dépôts stables sur le côté de l'interface ont été synthétisés in situ par voie électrochimique. La stabilité mécanique des dépôts de silice permis un traitement thermique de la silice. Basé sur les techniques d’imagerie (par exemple SEM) il a été constaté que les dépôts forment des hémisphères pour des temps plus long. La réaction interfaciale a également été suivie in situ par spectroscopie Raman confocale. Caractéristiques moléculaires de l'interface ont été modifiées de manière spectaculaire une fois les espèces CTA+ ont été transférés à la phase aqueuse. Les interfaces liquide – liquide miniaturisés et modifiés ont également été évaluée avec le transfert voltampérométrique / This work combines the electrochemistry at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) with the Sol – Gel process of silica leading to an interfacial modification with mesoporous silica using soft template. In the first part of this work the macroscopic liquid – liquid interface was employed to separate the aqueous solution of the hydrolyzed silica precursor species (tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)) from the cationic surfactant (cethyltrimethylammonium (CTA+)) dissolved in the dichloroethane. The silica material deposition was controlled by the electrochemical CTA+ transfer from the organic to the aqueous phase. Template transferred to the aqueous phase catalyzed the condensation reaction and self-assembly resulting in silica deposition at the interface. Silica deposition at the miniaturized ITIES (membranes supporting array of micrometer in diameter pores were used in this regard) was the second part of this work. Silica interfacial synthesis performed in situ resulted in stable deposits growing on the aqueous side of the interface. Mechanical stability of the supported silica deposits allowed further processing – silica material was cured. Based on imaginary techniques (e.g. SEM) it was found that deposits forms hemispheres for longer experimental time scales. Interfacial reaction was also followed with in situ confocal Raman spectroscopy. Molecular characteristics of the interface were changed dramatically once CTA+ species were transferred to the aqueous phase. Array of microITIES modified with silica was also assessed by ion transfer voltammetry Tetraethoxysilane Interface liquide – liquide Ities Silice mésoporeuse Procédé Sol – Gel Cetyltrimethylammonium Tetraethylammonium Tetramethylammonium Tetrabuthylammonium Voltammétrie cyclique Spectroscopie Raman confocale Tamis moléculaire Modification interfaciale Dépôt de silice Voltammétrie de transfert d’ions 4-Octylbenzenesulfonate Miniaturisation MicroITIES Μities Membrane à base de silicium mésoporeux Tetraethoxysilane Liquid – liquid interface Ities Mesoporous silica Sol – Gel process Soft template Cetyltrimethylammonium Worm like structures Tetraethylammonium Tetramethylammonium Tetrabuthylammonium PAMAM dendrimers Cyclic voltammetry Confocal Raman spectroscopy Molecular sieving Interfacial modification Silica deposition Ion transfer voltammetry 4-Octylbenzenesulfonate Miniaturization MicroITIES Μities Mesoporous silicon wafers 541.37 660.297
