Nature, origine et réactivité de la matière organique fossile dans les sols et sédiments : développements et applications de la photoionisation - spectrométrie de masse haute résolution (APPI-QTOF) et couplage avec la chromatograhie d'exclusion stérique (SEC) / Nature, origin and reactivity of fossil organic matter in soils and sediments : Developments and applications of the Photoionization - High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (APPI-QTOF) and Coupling with Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC)

Ghislain, Thierry 08 July 2011 (has links)
Le développement des outils analytiques pour l'analyse de la matière organique complexe en géochimie organique a connu de nombreuses avancées ces dernières années. Ce développement a permis de répondre à un grand nombre de questions quant à la composition de la matière organique. Cependant, beaucoup des points restent encore à élucider comme notamment la caractérisation des fractions de hauts poids moléculaires ainsi que le suivi de la réactivité de la matière organique. Ce travail de thèse a eu pour objectif (i) d'adapter les techniques de spectrométrie de masse déjà existantes pour l'analyse de la matière organique fossile (notamment par la sélection de la source d'ionisation atmosphérique la plus adaptée) mais également (ii) de développer un nouveau type de couplage entre la chromatographie d'exclusion stérique (SEC) et la spectrométrie de masse APPI-QTOF pour l'analyse des fractions peu polaires de hauts poids moléculaires. L'adaptation du l'APPI-QTOF a tout d'abord permis de mieux comprendre la réactivité de contaminants organiques polyaromatiques en présence de phases minérales. Le couplage SEC-APPI-QTOF a, quant à lui, permis d'améliorer les connaissances sur la structure des asphaltènes. Cependant, malgré la « simplification » rendue possible par la SEC, la très grande quantité d'informations reste difficile à interpréter et prend beaucoup de temps. Un modèle mathématique a donc été développé basé sur des analyses numériques et statistiques des spectres de masse, permettant de les comparer entre eux afin de distinguer l'origine des échantillons et de suivre l'impact de processus physico-chimiques (altérations naturelles - traitements de remédiation). / The development of analytical tools for organic geochemistry analysis has increased these past years. This development has allowed answering many questions about organic matter composition. However, many issues remain to be clarified including the characterization of high molecular weight fractions and monitoring the reactivity of organic matter. This thesis has focused on both (i) existing method improvements for fossil organic geochemistry analysis but also on (ii) developing a new type of coupling between the size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and the APPI-QTOF mass spectrometry for high molecular weight weakly polar fractions. Adjustments on APPI-QTOF mass spectrometry have allowed a better understanding of polyaromatic organic contaminant reactivity in presence of mineral matrices. The success of this coupling has allowed a better understanding of the structure of asphaltenes. However despite the "simplification" obtained by the SEC, the large amount of information remains difficult to interpret and time-consuming. A mathematical model has been developed based on numerical and statistical analysis of mass spectra, allowing direct comparison of mass spectra and being able to identify several types of information such as origins of samples, monitoring of physico-chemical processes and also the efficiency of soil recovery treatments as well as the identification of analytical protocols.

Contribution à l'étude du lien entre Annonaceae et parkinsonisme : identification et quantification d'acétogénines par déréplication; métabolisation de phase I et approche de la distribution de l'annonacine / Contribution to the study of the relationship between Annonaceae and parkinsonisms : identification and quantification of acetogenins by dereplication; phase I metabolism and approach of the distribution of annonacin.

Le Ven, Jessica 03 February 2012 (has links)
Dans les Antilles françaises, une proportion anormalement élevée de parkinsonismes atypiques sporadiques – des tauopathies – est observée. Un lien avec la consommation de plantes de la famille des Annonaceae, en particulier Annona muricata L. (corossol) a été démontré. Les acétogénines d’Annonaceae, des inhibiteurs puissants du complexe I de la chaine respiratoire mitochondriale, sont considérées comme des toxines candidates. L’annonacine, une acétogénine représentative, majoritaire dans A. muricata, est neurotoxique in vitro et in vivo. L’Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Aliments a exprimé ses doutes quant à ce problème de santé publique. Elle insiste sur l’importance d’évaluer l’exposition des consommateurs d’Annonaceae aux acétogénines, et de déterminer les paramètres pharmacocinétiques de ces molécules. Au cours de cette thèse, nous avons cherché à répondre à ces interrogations, avec l’annonacine pour modèle. Après l’analyse structurale d’acétogénines étalons, une méthode de déréplication puissante et innovante a été mise au point par CLHP-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap® avec infusion post-colonne de lithium. Les profils complets des acétogénines d’extraits bruts issus d’un nectar d’A. muricata et d’un alcool d’Annona cherimolia Mill. (annone, chérimole) ont été élucidés, mettant en évidence une composition plus complexe et plus variée que celle envisagée dans la littérature. A. cherimolia n’avait pas été identifiée comme une source d’exposition jusqu’à maintenant. Des données quantitatives ont été obtenues par CLHP-DAD-MS, à partir d’une quinzaine d’échantillons de produits commerciaux, confirmant une exposition humaine importante à ces molécules par voie alimentaire, via des produits d’origines géographiques, de statuts et de modes d’obtention variés. Des travaux préliminaires d’étude du passage de l’annonacine à travers des membranes biologiques ont été amorcés (modèles de barrières intestinale – Caco-2 – et hémato-encéphalique – hCMEC/D3). Une étude de métabolisation de phase I de l’annonacine sur microsomes de foie de Rat a permis d'identifier 25 métabolites mono-hydroxylés par CLHP-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap®. Seuls trois d’entre eux sont observés avec des microsomes humains. Ces métabolites ont été obtenus par hémisynthèse (bioconversion, catalyse par porphyrines) et leur structure a été déterminée. Les résultats montrent que cette étape de métabolisation n’est pas cruciale dans le devenir de l’annonacine, et ne peut expliquer de susceptibilité différentielle aux acétogénines. Après la présentation de rappels concernant les Annonaceae, les parkinsonismes et leurs formes atypiques guadeloupéennes et tropicales, puis d’aspects méthodologiques en spectrométrie de masse, nos travaux de phytochimie analytique, d’analyse métabolique, d’hémisynthèse et de détermination structurale sont présentés, et discutés en regard d’un problème de santé publique potentiellement large et préoccupant. / In the French West Indies, an unusually high proportion of atypical sporadic parkinsonisms - tauopathies - is observed. A link between these atypical parkinsonisms and the consumption of plants of the Annonacea family, Annona muricata L. (soursop) was demonstrated. The Annonaceous acetogenins are potent inhibitors of complex I of mitochondrial respiratory chain and are considered to be in vitro toxins candidate. The major acetogenin in Annona muricata, annonacin, is neurotoxic in in vitro and in vivo models. Afssa (Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Aliments) expressed its concern regarding this public health problem. The Agency reports the importance of assessing consumers ‘exposure to Annonaceous acetogenins, and of determining the pharmacokinetic of these molecules. In this thesis, we sintended to answer these questions, with annonacine as a model. After the structural analysis of acetogenins standards, a powerful and innovative method of dereplication was developed by HPLC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap ® with post-column infusion of lithium. Complete acetogenins profile in crude extracts from nectar of A. muricata and from an alcohol of Annona cherimolia Mill. (Annona, cherimoya) were elucidated, revealing a more complex and more varied composition than that proposed in the literature. A. cherimolia had not been identified as a source of exposure to date. Quantitative data were obtained by HPLC-DAD-MS, from fifteen samples of commercial products, confirming an important human exposure to these molecules through food products of varied geographical origins, status and methods. Preliminary works to study ability of annonacin to cross biological membranes have been initiated (intestinal barrier models - Caco-2 - and blood-brain barrier - hCMEC/D3). A study of phase I metabolism of annonacin in rat liver microsomes allowed the identification of 25 mono-hydroxylated metabolites by HPLC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap®. Only three of them were observed with human microsomes. These metabolites were obtained by semisynthesis (bioconversion, porphyrin mediated catalysis) and their structure was determined. The results show that phase metabolism is not critical in the becoming of annonacin, and cannot explain a differential susceptibility of acetogenins. After a presentation of the Annonaceae family, of parkinsonism – including atypical and guadeloupean forms then of and methodological aspects of mass spectrometry, analytical phytochemistry of our work, metabolic analysis, semisynthesis and structure determination are proposed, and discussed in the context of a public health problem and potentially broad concern.

Compostos fenólicos de resíduos agroindustriais: identificação, propriedades biológicas e aplicação em matriz alimentar de base lipídica / Phenolic compounds of agroindustrial residues: identification, biological properties and application in lipid-based food matrix

Melo, Priscilla Siqueira 06 April 2016 (has links)
A geração de resíduos sólidos pelas atividades agroindustriais tem criado a demanda por um reaproveitamento tecnológico desses materiais. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o potencial bioativo e tecnológico de resíduos agroindustriais, como fontes naturais de compostos fenólicos com atividade antioxidante. Foram analisados resíduos agroindustriais vinícolas, de indústrias produtoras de polpas congeladas de frutas (açaí, cajá, cupuaçu e graviola) e provenientes do beneficiamento de café e de laranja. Inicialmente, foi realizado um estudo para a determinação das condições ótimas de extração, empregando planejamento experimental multivariado com delineamento composto central rotacional, cujos resultados foram avaliados empregando a técnica de superfície de resposta. Na sequência, foram feitos a triagem dos resíduos, baseada na atividade antioxidante, e a caracterização fenólica dos extratos hidroalcoólicos obtidos dos resíduos agroindustriais. De acordo com os resultados de atividade antioxidante, engaço de uva da variedade Chenin Blanc (EC) e semente de açaí (SA) foram os resíduos selecionados, os quais seguiram para as etapas de concentração e fracionamento bioguiado de sua(s) molécula(s) bioativa(s), as quais foram posteriormente identificadas por UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Extratos brutos e concentrados foram avaliados in vitro quanto à capacidade de desativação de espécies reativas de oxigênio (radicais peroxila, ânion superóxido e ácido hipocloroso) e então, aplicados em óleo de soja, emulsão e suspensão de lipossomos, a fim de se avaliar a efetividade desses extratos como antioxidante natural em matrizes lipídicas. Concentrações intermediárias de etanol (40-60%) e alta temperatura (96°C), exceto para semente de açaí (25°C), foram as condições ótimas para a extração de antioxidantes dos resíduos agroindustriais. Epicatequina, ácido gálico, catequina e procianidina B1 foram os compostos de maior ocorrência, quando avaliados pela técnica de HPLC-DAD. O EC apresentou a maior atividade antioxidante global e SA a maior atividade entre os resíduos de polpas de frutas, laranja e café. A concentração dos extratos brutos de EC e SA, pela resina Amberlite XAD®-2, produziu aumento significativo da atividade antioxidante. Além disso, extratos brutos e concentrados apresentaram atividade antiproliferativa e anti-inflamatória. Os extratos concentrados foram fracionados por meio de Sephadex LH-20, a partir da qual foi possível identificar quatro frações de maior bioatividade para o EC e três para o SA. Procianidina B1, catequina, epicatequina e resveratrol foram identificados no extrato concentrado e frações de EC. Dezoito procianidinas poliméricas, catequina, epicatequina foram os principais compostos identificados em SA, por meio de UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Resveratrol também foi encontrado em SA pela primeira vez. Quando avaliados em óleo de soja, EC e SA demonstraram atividade pro-oxidante. Contudo, elevada atividade antioxidante foi verificada quando essas amostras foram aplicadas em sistemas lipídicos coloidais, pois retardaram o consumo de oxigênio em uma emulsão óleo/água e o período de indução na produção de dienos conjugados em uma suspensão de lipossomos. Portanto, os resíduos agroindustriais EC e SA possuem potencial tecnológico de reaproveitamento industrial podendo ser considerados possíveis matérias-primas para a obtenção de extratos ricos em antioxidantes ou pela extração de antioxidantes naturais de uso pelas indústrias farmacêutica e/ou de alimentos. / The solid waste generation by agroindustrial activities have created the demand for a technology reuse of these materials. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bioactive and technological potential of agroindustrial residues as sources of phenolic compounds with antioxidant activity. Agroindustrial residues from wineries, from industries producing frozen fruit pulps (acai, caja, cupuaçu and soursop) and from the processing of coffee and orange, were analyzed. Initially, a study using a multivariate experimental planning with central composite rotatable design was performed, whose results were evaluated by response surface technique. After, it was made the screening based on the antioxidant activity and the phenolic characterization of hydroalcoholic extracts of optimized agroindustrial residues. According to the results obtained for the antioxidant activity the residues grape stem from the variety Chenin Blanc (EC) and açaí seed (SA) were selected and followed to the steps of concentration and bioguided fractionation of their(s) molecule(s) bioactive(s), which were subsequently identified by UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Crude and concentrated extracts were evaluated in vitro for the deactivation capability of reactive oxygen species (peroxyl radicals, superoxide and hypochlorous acid) and then applied to soybean oil, emulsion and liposome suspension in order to evaluate the effectiveness these extracts as natural antioxidant in lipid matrices. Intermediate concentrations of ethanol (40-60%) and high temperature (96 °C), except for acai seed (25 °C) were the optimal conditions for the extraction of antioxidants from agroindustrial residues. Epicatechin, gallic acid, catechin and procyanidin B1 compounds were the most frequent molecules, when assessed by HPLC-DAD. The EC had the highest overall antioxidant activity and SA the greatest activity between residues of fruit pulp, orange and coffee. Concentration of the crude extracts of EC and SA, by Amberlite XAD®-2 resin, produced a significant increase in antioxidant activity. Furthermore, crude and concentrated extracts showed antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory activity. The concentrated extracts were fractionated by Sephadex LH-20, from which it was possible to identify four fractions of greater bioactivity for the EC and three for SA. Procyanidin B1, catechin, epicatechin and resveratrol were identified in the concentrated extract and EC fractions. Eighteen polymeric procyanidins, catechin, epicatechin were the major compounds identified in SA by UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Resveratrol has also been found for the first time in SA. When evaluated in soybean oil, EC and SA demonstrated pro-oxidant activity. However, high antioxidant activity was observed when these samples were evaluated on lipid colloidal systems, for delayed oxygen consumption in an emulsion oil/water and the induction period in the production of conjugated dienes in a liposome suspension. Therefore, the agroindustrial residues EC and SA have technological potential for industrial reuse and, thus, can be considered as raw material for obtaining antioxidant-rich extracts or by extraction of natural antioxidants useful for pharmaceutical and/or food industries.

Análise de fármacos e metilparabeno em amostras de água do Rio Itapecuru (MA), do Rio Mogi Guaçu (SP) e do Rio Monjolinho e seus tributários (SP) / Analysis of pharmaceuticals and methylparaben in water samples from the Itapecuru River (MA), the Mogi Guaçu River (SP) and the Monjolinho River and its tributaries (SP)

Oliveira, Thiessa Maramaldo de Almeida 01 December 2017 (has links)
Neste estudo, investigou-se a ocorrência de fármacos (naproxeno, paracetamol, diclofenaco, 17β-estradiol, sulfametazina, sulfadimetoxina e sulfatiazol) e produto de cuidados pessoais (metilparabeno) em amostras de água superficial do Rio Itapecuru (MA), do Rio Mogi Guaçu (SP) e do Rio Monjolinho e seus tributários (SP). As águas dos rios foram caracterizadas por parâmetros físicos e químicos e os analitos foram isolados e pré-concentrados por meio da extração em fase sólida (SPE) e, subsequentemente, analisados por cromatografia líquida acoplada à espectrometria de massas de alta resolução (LC-ESI-QqTOF/MS). O método desenvolvido foi validado e mostrou-se linear na faixa de 50 a 400 µg L-1, com coeficientes de determinação maiores que 0,99. Os limites de detecção e quantificação para todos os analitos foram 16 e 50 µg L-1, respectivamente, os valores de recuperação variaram entre 50 e 99%, a precisão intradia variou entre 0,26 e 6,99% e a exatidão variou entre 88,45 e 103,07%. Nas amostras provenientes do Rio Monjolinho e de seus tributários as concentrações máximas de paracetamol, naproxeno e metilparabeno foram 143,97, 75,90 e 56,18 µg L-1, respectivamente. Nas amostras coletadas no Rio Mogi Guaçu (SP) o metilparabeno e o naproxeno foram apenas detectados, bem como o metilparabeno no Rio Itapecuru (MA), uma vez que suas concentrações, apresentaram-se abaixo do limite de quantificação do método. A análise de componentes principais (PCA) mostrou que as variáveis oxigênio dissolvido (OD) e carbono orgânico total (TOC) estão altamente correlacionadas com as elevadas concentrações dos fármacos e metilparabeno encontradas nas amostras, assim como explicou o efeito da variabilidade espaço-temporal nas concentrações. As curvas de distribuição da sensibilidade das espécies (SSD) foram construídas e indicaram que sensibilidades distintas são obtidas dependendo das espécies e do analito ao qual esta foi exposta, evidenciando que a presença dos fármacos e do metilparabeno no ambiente aquático podem provocar desequilíbrio na cadeia alimentar. Portanto, este estudo traz informações analíticas e ecotoxicológicas importantes sobre os contaminantes emergentes em ambiente aquático, que podem ser utilizadas como base de dados para a criação de novas legislações que restrinjam a entrada desses compostos nos corpos aquáticos. / In this study, we investigated the occurrence of pharmaceuticals (naproxen, paracetamol, diclofenac, 17β-estradiol, sulfametazine, sulfadimethoxine and sulfathiazole) and personal care product (methylparaben) in surface water samples from the Itapecuru River (MA), Mogi Guaçu River (SP) and the Monjolinho River and its tributaries (SP). The river waters were characterized by physical and chemical parameters, the analytes were isolated and preconcentrated by solid phase extraction (SPE) and subsequently analyzed using liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-QqTOF/MS). The chromatographic method presented coefficients of determination higher than 0.99 and linear ranges of 50 - 400 µg L-1. The limits of detection and quantification were 16 µg L-1 and 50 µg L-1, respectively, for all the analytes. Recovery values were 50 - 99 %, intraday precision were 0.26 - 6.99%, and accuracy were 88.45 - 103.07%. In the samples from Monjolinho River and its tributaries the maximum concentrations of paracetamol, methylparaben and naproxen were 143.97, 75.90, and 56.18 µg L-1, respectively. In the samples collected in Mogi Guaçu River (SP), methylparaben and naproxen were only detected, as well as methylparaben in the Rio Itapecuru (MA), since their concentrations were below the limit of quantification of the method. Principal components analysis (PCA) showed that the variables dissolved oxygen (OD) and total organic carbon (TOC) are highly correlated to the high concentrations of drugs and methylparaben found in the samples, as well as explaining the spatio-temporal variability in the concentrations. Species sensitivity distribution curves (SSD) were built and they indicated that different sensitivities are obtained depending on the specie and the analyte which it was exposed, evidencing that the presence of pharmaceuticals and methylparaben in the aquatic environment can cause imbalance in the food chain. Therefore, this study provides important analytical and ecotoxicological informations on emerging contaminants in the aquatic environment, which can be used as a database for the elaboration of a new legislation to restrict the entry of these compounds into aquatic bodies.

Charakterisierung eines pharmazeutischen Antikörpers und geeigneter Aufreinigungsmethoden

Winkler, Rajko 02 November 2015 (has links)
In dieser Arbeit konnte ein humaner IgG1-Antikörper mittels verschiedener massenspektrometrischer Methoden erfolgreich untersucht und charakterisiert werden. Neben der Bestimmung der molekularen Massen des betrachteten Anti-Interleukin-8-Antikörpers und dessen Fragmenten konnte auch die Bildung von Oligomeren untersucht werden. Es wurden verschiedene Oligomere, bis hin zum Pentamer, massenspektrometrisch gemessen und es konnten auch Erkenntnisse gewonnen werden, dass Konzentrationseffekte maßgeblich zur Oligomerbildung bei diesem Antikörper beitragen. Die Antikörperglykosylierung, eine sehr prominente und hoch diverse Modifikation, wurde bei diesem Antikörper ebenfalls gefunden und neben dem intakten Antikörper auch in dessen Fragmenten und im Dimer gemessen. Neben dieser natürlichen Modifikation wurden auch Derivatisierungen des Antikörpers analysiert, dabei wurden unterschiedliche Metallmarkierungen analysiert. Es konnten verschiedene Markierungsgrade bestimmt werden, auch wenn diese nebeneinander als Mischung vorlagen. Der Nachweis, dass der Antikörper auch weiterhin intakt und bindungsfähig ist, konnte erbracht werden. Die Bildung von Komplexen des Antikörpers mit verschiedenen Proteinen konnte ebenfalls mittels Massenspektrometrie gezeigt werden. Weiterhin konnte gezeigt werden, dass es möglich war, eine Quantifizierungsstrategie für Antikörper zu entwickeln. Mit dieser können absolute Quantifizierungen durchgeführt werden, während diese gleichzeitig unabhängig von Art und Struktur des einzusetzenden Standards sind. Damit ist es möglich, die Probleme des Bradford-Assays zu umgehen. Des Weiteren sind nur minimale Kenntnisse über den zu analysierenden Antikörper notwendig, sodass dieses Verfahren auch hervorragend auf bisher nicht charakterisierte Antikörper angewendet werden kann. / The aim of this work is the characterization of an antibody. The used human IgG1-antibody was successfully investigated with various mass spectrometric methods. In addition to the determination of the molecular masses of the analyzed Anti-Interleukin-8 antibody itself and its fragments the formation of oligomers was examined. Different oligomers up to pentamers could be mass spectromatrically measured. Resulting from this, it was possible to find that concentration effects are the main factors for the oligomer formation of this particular antibody. The glycosylation of antibodies, a prominent and high diverse modification, was also found in this antibody and was measured in the intact molecule, in its fragments and also the dimer. Next to this native modification, also a derivatization of the antibody was investigated. Different metal containing modifications were analyzed. Thereby it was possible to determine various tagging degrees, even in a mixture of these metal containing modifications. The important question, whether the tagged antibody is still active and capable for binding, can be answered positively. Furthermore the formation of antibody-protein complexes could be shown via mass spectrometry. It was also successful to develop a quantification strategy for this antibody. With this an absolute quantification was possible, which was independent from the type and the structure of the used standard. With this method it is possible to overcome the problems of the Bradford assay. In addition to this only very little information about the antibody is needed for the quantification, which allows to use this method for non characterized antibodies.

Modelagem farmacocinética-farmacodinâmica da morfina administrada através de bomba controlada pelo paciente no pós-operatório de revascularização do miocárdio / Morphine pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling administered by patient controlled analgesia (PCA) pump in the postoperative period of myocardial revascularization surgery

Santos, Verônica Jorge 17 March 2008 (has links)
Introdução: A administração de morfina através de bomba de infusão controlada pelo paciente (ACP) no tratamento da dor pós-cirurgica e traumática tem-se mostrado promissora e faz parte da rotina terapêutica de muitos hospitais. No entanto, doses altas ou repetidas deste opióide estão associadas a efeitos adversos dose dependentes, dentre eles, a depressão respiratória. No caso de pacientes submetidos a cirurgias de tórax, além da analgesia pós-operatória, devem também ser considerados como parâmetros relevantes a anestesia regional (intratecal) no intra-operatório, a qual pode contribuir para melhora da função pulmonar pós-operatória e extubação precoce no pós-operatório e a circulação extracorpórea (CEC), potencial fator de alteração na cinética de fármacos. Objetivos: Investigar a influência da morfina intratecal e da circulação extracorpórea (CEC) sobre o consumo de morfina ACP, área sob a curva e escores de dor no período pós-operatório, bem como propor modelo farmacocinético-farmacodinâmico (PK-PD) para correlação dessas variáveis. Adicionalmente, foi desenvolvido método analítico para quantificação da morfina plasmática. Métodos: 59 pacientes submetidos à cirurgia eletiva de revascularização com CEC e sem CEC, na presença ou não de morfina intratecal intra-operatória foram distribuídos em grupos com base na combinação das intervenções acima mencionadas. No período pós-operatório, todos os pacientes receberam bolus IV de 1mg de morfina, e então o dispositivo ACP foi instalado na unidade de terapia intensiva, através de cateter venoso após a extubação orotraqueal. A morfina ACP foi liberada através de livre demanda solicitada pelo paciente (bolus de 1 mg), lock-out de 5 min até 36 horas do pós-operatório. Coletaram-se amostras seriadas de sangue de cateter venoso no período (3,6,12,18,24,36 horas) e a morfina plasmática foi determinada através da cromatografia líquida - espectrometria de massas (LC-MS/MS ESI+) após a purificação das amostras de plasma. A intensidade da dor foi monitorada no mesmo período pela escala análoga visual (EAV). A modelagem PK-PD foi investigada pelo GraphPad Prism 5.0. Resultados: O consumo de morfina e a intensidade da dor diferiram entre os grupos. O modelo do EMAX e a curva de histerese foram propostos pela modelagem PK-PD. Conclusões: O método analítico mostrou-se adequado na determinação da morfina plasmática. O consumo de morfina os escores de dor EAV no pós-operatório diferiram pela comparação dos grupos de pacientes investigados. Menores doses de morfina ACP foram requeridas pelos pacientes que receberam morfina intratecal intra-operatória. Demonstrou-se através do modelo do EMAX correlação não linear entre os parâmetros consumo de morfina e AUC0-36, e curva de histerese foi obtida quando se plotou consumo de morfina versus escore de dor. / Introduction: Morphine administration using patient controlled analgesia (PCA) for treatment of post surgical and traumatic pain has been a current practice in many hospitals. However, large or repeated doses of this opioid are associated to dose dependent adverse events, including, respiratory depression. Considering patients submitted to thoracic surgery, in addition to the postoperatory analgesia, two other relevant parameters must be considered: regional anesthesia (intrathecal) in the intra-operatory period, which should contribute to the respiratory function improvement and decrease in the extubation time; and the cardiopulmonary bypass (OPCAB), that potentially alters the drugs\' kinetics. Objectives: To investigate the influence of intrathecal morphine administration and cardiopulmonary bypass (OPCAB) in the morphine PCA drug requirements, area under the curve of morphine plasma concentration versus time and pain scores in the postoperative period, and to choose a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model to correlate these variables. In addition, an analytical method was developed to quantify morphine in plasma. Methods: 59 patients submitted to elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with (CPB) and without cardiopulmonary bypass (OPCAB), with and without intrathecal morphine in the intra-operative period were distributed by the combination of the above mentioned interventions. In the postoperative period, all the patients were given an IV bolus of 1mg of morphine, and then PCA device was installed in the intensive care unit by a venous catheter after the orotracheal extubation. Morphine PCA was delivered on demand (boluses of 1 mg), lock-out of 5 min until 36 hours of the postoperative period. A serial of blood samples were collected from venous catheter of patients at the postoperative period (3,6,12,18,24,36 hrs) and morphine plasma concentrations were determined by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry ((LC-MS/MS ESI+)) after the purification of plasma samples. Pain scores were monitored during the same period by a visual analogue scale, VAS or 1-2-3 pain scale. PK-PD modeling was investigated by applying the GraphPad Prism 5.0. Results: Drug dose requirements and analgesia were significant different in patients of groups investigated. EMAX model and the hysteresis curve were proposed by PK-PD modeling to correlate drug requirements and AUC 0-36 or VAS. Conclusions: LC-MS/MS (ESI+) method was adequate for drug measurements in plasma. Morphine dose requirements and analgesia were different by comparison of groups. Lower doses of morphine by PCA were required for the groups that have received intrathecal morphine intraoperatively. It was demonstrated a non linear correlation between parameters by EMAX model when drug requirements and AUC0-36 were plotted, and the hysteresis curve was obtained when analgesia dose requirements was plotted against pain score.

A geração de resíduos sólidos pelas atividades agroindustriais tem criado a demanda por um reaproveitamento tecnológico desses materiais. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o potencial bioativo e tecnológico de resíduos agroindustriais, como fontes naturais de compostos fenólicos com atividade antioxidante. Foram analisados resíduos agroindustriais vinícolas, de indústrias produtoras de polpas congeladas de frutas (açaí, cajá, cupuaçu e graviola) e provenientes do beneficiamento de café e de laranja. Inicialmente, foi realizado um estudo para a determinação das condições ótimas de extração, empregando planejamento experimental multivariado com delineamento composto central rotacional, cujos resultados foram avaliados empregando a técnica de superfície de resposta. Na sequência, foram feitos a triagem dos resíduos, baseada na atividade antioxidante, e a caracterização fenólica dos extratos hidroalcoólicos obtidos dos resíduos agroindustriais. De acordo com os resultados de atividade antioxidante, engaço de uva da variedade Chenin Blanc (EC) e semente de açaí (SA) foram os resíduos selecionados, os quais seguiram para as etapas de concentração e fracionamento bioguiado de sua(s) molécula(s) bioativa(s), as quais foram posteriormente identificadas por UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Extratos brutos e concentrados foram avaliados in vitro quanto à capacidade de desativação de espécies reativas de oxigênio (radicais peroxila, ânion superóxido e ácido hipocloroso) e então, aplicados em óleo de soja, emulsão e suspensão de lipossomos, a fim de se avaliar a efetividade desses extratos como antioxidante natural em matrizes lipídicas. Concentrações intermediárias de etanol (40-60%) e alta temperatura (96°C), exceto para semente de açaí (25°C), foram as condições ótimas para a extração de antioxidantes dos resíduos agroindustriais. Epicatequina, ácido gálico, catequina e procianidina B1 foram os compostos de maior ocorrência, quando avaliados pela técnica de HPLC-DAD. O EC apresentou a maior atividade antioxidante global e SA a maior atividade entre os resíduos de polpas de frutas, laranja e café. A concentração dos extratos brutos de EC e SA, pela resina Amberlite XAD®-2, produziu aumento significativo da atividade antioxidante. Além disso, extratos brutos e concentrados apresentaram atividade antiproliferativa e anti-inflamatória. Os extratos concentrados foram fracionados por meio de Sephadex LH-20, a partir da qual foi possível identificar quatro frações de maior bioatividade para o EC e três para o SA. Procianidina B1, catequina, epicatequina e resveratrol foram identificados no extrato concentrado e frações de EC. Dezoito procianidinas poliméricas, catequina, epicatequina foram os principais compostos identificados em SA, por meio de UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Resveratrol também foi encontrado em SA pela primeira vez. Quando avaliados em óleo de soja, EC e SA demonstraram atividade pro-oxidante. Contudo, elevada atividade antioxidante foi verificada quando essas amostras foram aplicadas em sistemas lipídicos coloidais, pois retardaram o consumo de oxigênio em uma emulsão óleo/água e o período de indução na produção de dienos conjugados em uma suspensão de lipossomos. Portanto, os resíduos agroindustriais EC e SA possuem potencial tecnológico de reaproveitamento industrial podendo ser considerados possíveis matérias-primas para a obtenção de extratos ricos em antioxidantes ou pela extração de antioxidantes naturais de uso pelas indústrias farmacêutica e/ou de alimentos. / The solid waste generation by agroindustrial activities have created the demand for a technology reuse of these materials. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bioactive and technological potential of agroindustrial residues as sources of phenolic compounds with antioxidant activity. Agroindustrial residues from wineries, from industries producing frozen fruit pulps (acai, caja, cupuaçu and soursop) and from the processing of coffee and orange, were analyzed. Initially, a study using a multivariate experimental planning with central composite rotatable design was performed, whose results were evaluated by response surface technique. After, it was made the screening based on the antioxidant activity and the phenolic characterization of hydroalcoholic extracts of optimized agroindustrial residues. According to the results obtained for the antioxidant activity the residues grape stem from the variety Chenin Blanc (EC) and açaí seed (SA) were selected and followed to the steps of concentration and bioguided fractionation of their(s) molecule(s) bioactive(s), which were subsequently identified by UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Crude and concentrated extracts were evaluated in vitro for the deactivation capability of reactive oxygen species (peroxyl radicals, superoxide and hypochlorous acid) and then applied to soybean oil, emulsion and liposome suspension in order to evaluate the effectiveness these extracts as natural antioxidant in lipid matrices. Intermediate concentrations of ethanol (40-60%) and high temperature (96 °C), except for acai seed (25 °C) were the optimal conditions for the extraction of antioxidants from agroindustrial residues. Epicatechin, gallic acid, catechin and procyanidin B1 compounds were the most frequent molecules, when assessed by HPLC-DAD. The EC had the highest overall antioxidant activity and SA the greatest activity between residues of fruit pulp, orange and coffee. Concentration of the crude extracts of EC and SA, by Amberlite XAD®-2 resin, produced a significant increase in antioxidant activity. Furthermore, crude and concentrated extracts showed antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory activity. The concentrated extracts were fractionated by Sephadex LH-20, from which it was possible to identify four fractions of greater bioactivity for the EC and three for SA. Procyanidin B1, catechin, epicatechin and resveratrol were identified in the concentrated extract and EC fractions. Eighteen polymeric procyanidins, catechin, epicatechin were the major compounds identified in SA by UHPLC-ESI-LTQ-MS. Resveratrol has also been found for the first time in SA. When evaluated in soybean oil, EC and SA demonstrated pro-oxidant activity. However, high antioxidant activity was observed when these samples were evaluated on lipid colloidal systems, for delayed oxygen consumption in an emulsion oil/water and the induction period in the production of conjugated dienes in a liposome suspension. Therefore, the agroindustrial residues EC and SA have technological potential for industrial reuse and, thus, can be considered as raw material for obtaining antioxidant-rich extracts or by extraction of natural antioxidants useful for pharmaceutical and/or food industries.

Neste estudo, investigou-se a ocorrência de fármacos (naproxeno, paracetamol, diclofenaco, 17β-estradiol, sulfametazina, sulfadimetoxina e sulfatiazol) e produto de cuidados pessoais (metilparabeno) em amostras de água superficial do Rio Itapecuru (MA), do Rio Mogi Guaçu (SP) e do Rio Monjolinho e seus tributários (SP). As águas dos rios foram caracterizadas por parâmetros físicos e químicos e os analitos foram isolados e pré-concentrados por meio da extração em fase sólida (SPE) e, subsequentemente, analisados por cromatografia líquida acoplada à espectrometria de massas de alta resolução (LC-ESI-QqTOF/MS). O método desenvolvido foi validado e mostrou-se linear na faixa de 50 a 400 µg L-1, com coeficientes de determinação maiores que 0,99. Os limites de detecção e quantificação para todos os analitos foram 16 e 50 µg L-1, respectivamente, os valores de recuperação variaram entre 50 e 99%, a precisão intradia variou entre 0,26 e 6,99% e a exatidão variou entre 88,45 e 103,07%. Nas amostras provenientes do Rio Monjolinho e de seus tributários as concentrações máximas de paracetamol, naproxeno e metilparabeno foram 143,97, 75,90 e 56,18 µg L-1, respectivamente. Nas amostras coletadas no Rio Mogi Guaçu (SP) o metilparabeno e o naproxeno foram apenas detectados, bem como o metilparabeno no Rio Itapecuru (MA), uma vez que suas concentrações, apresentaram-se abaixo do limite de quantificação do método. A análise de componentes principais (PCA) mostrou que as variáveis oxigênio dissolvido (OD) e carbono orgânico total (TOC) estão altamente correlacionadas com as elevadas concentrações dos fármacos e metilparabeno encontradas nas amostras, assim como explicou o efeito da variabilidade espaço-temporal nas concentrações. As curvas de distribuição da sensibilidade das espécies (SSD) foram construídas e indicaram que sensibilidades distintas são obtidas dependendo das espécies e do analito ao qual esta foi exposta, evidenciando que a presença dos fármacos e do metilparabeno no ambiente aquático podem provocar desequilíbrio na cadeia alimentar. Portanto, este estudo traz informações analíticas e ecotoxicológicas importantes sobre os contaminantes emergentes em ambiente aquático, que podem ser utilizadas como base de dados para a criação de novas legislações que restrinjam a entrada desses compostos nos corpos aquáticos. / In this study, we investigated the occurrence of pharmaceuticals (naproxen, paracetamol, diclofenac, 17β-estradiol, sulfametazine, sulfadimethoxine and sulfathiazole) and personal care product (methylparaben) in surface water samples from the Itapecuru River (MA), Mogi Guaçu River (SP) and the Monjolinho River and its tributaries (SP). The river waters were characterized by physical and chemical parameters, the analytes were isolated and preconcentrated by solid phase extraction (SPE) and subsequently analyzed using liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-QqTOF/MS). The chromatographic method presented coefficients of determination higher than 0.99 and linear ranges of 50 - 400 µg L-1. The limits of detection and quantification were 16 µg L-1 and 50 µg L-1, respectively, for all the analytes. Recovery values were 50 - 99 %, intraday precision were 0.26 - 6.99%, and accuracy were 88.45 - 103.07%. In the samples from Monjolinho River and its tributaries the maximum concentrations of paracetamol, methylparaben and naproxen were 143.97, 75.90, and 56.18 µg L-1, respectively. In the samples collected in Mogi Guaçu River (SP), methylparaben and naproxen were only detected, as well as methylparaben in the Rio Itapecuru (MA), since their concentrations were below the limit of quantification of the method. Principal components analysis (PCA) showed that the variables dissolved oxygen (OD) and total organic carbon (TOC) are highly correlated to the high concentrations of drugs and methylparaben found in the samples, as well as explaining the spatio-temporal variability in the concentrations. Species sensitivity distribution curves (SSD) were built and they indicated that different sensitivities are obtained depending on the specie and the analyte which it was exposed, evidencing that the presence of pharmaceuticals and methylparaben in the aquatic environment can cause imbalance in the food chain. Therefore, this study provides important analytical and ecotoxicological informations on emerging contaminants in the aquatic environment, which can be used as a database for the elaboration of a new legislation to restrict the entry of these compounds into aquatic bodies.

Introdução: A administração de morfina através de bomba de infusão controlada pelo paciente (ACP) no tratamento da dor pós-cirurgica e traumática tem-se mostrado promissora e faz parte da rotina terapêutica de muitos hospitais. No entanto, doses altas ou repetidas deste opióide estão associadas a efeitos adversos dose dependentes, dentre eles, a depressão respiratória. No caso de pacientes submetidos a cirurgias de tórax, além da analgesia pós-operatória, devem também ser considerados como parâmetros relevantes a anestesia regional (intratecal) no intra-operatório, a qual pode contribuir para melhora da função pulmonar pós-operatória e extubação precoce no pós-operatório e a circulação extracorpórea (CEC), potencial fator de alteração na cinética de fármacos. Objetivos: Investigar a influência da morfina intratecal e da circulação extracorpórea (CEC) sobre o consumo de morfina ACP, área sob a curva e escores de dor no período pós-operatório, bem como propor modelo farmacocinético-farmacodinâmico (PK-PD) para correlação dessas variáveis. Adicionalmente, foi desenvolvido método analítico para quantificação da morfina plasmática. Métodos: 59 pacientes submetidos à cirurgia eletiva de revascularização com CEC e sem CEC, na presença ou não de morfina intratecal intra-operatória foram distribuídos em grupos com base na combinação das intervenções acima mencionadas. No período pós-operatório, todos os pacientes receberam bolus IV de 1mg de morfina, e então o dispositivo ACP foi instalado na unidade de terapia intensiva, através de cateter venoso após a extubação orotraqueal. A morfina ACP foi liberada através de livre demanda solicitada pelo paciente (bolus de 1 mg), lock-out de 5 min até 36 horas do pós-operatório. Coletaram-se amostras seriadas de sangue de cateter venoso no período (3,6,12,18,24,36 horas) e a morfina plasmática foi determinada através da cromatografia líquida - espectrometria de massas (LC-MS/MS ESI+) após a purificação das amostras de plasma. A intensidade da dor foi monitorada no mesmo período pela escala análoga visual (EAV). A modelagem PK-PD foi investigada pelo GraphPad Prism 5.0. Resultados: O consumo de morfina e a intensidade da dor diferiram entre os grupos. O modelo do EMAX e a curva de histerese foram propostos pela modelagem PK-PD. Conclusões: O método analítico mostrou-se adequado na determinação da morfina plasmática. O consumo de morfina os escores de dor EAV no pós-operatório diferiram pela comparação dos grupos de pacientes investigados. Menores doses de morfina ACP foram requeridas pelos pacientes que receberam morfina intratecal intra-operatória. Demonstrou-se através do modelo do EMAX correlação não linear entre os parâmetros consumo de morfina e AUC0-36, e curva de histerese foi obtida quando se plotou consumo de morfina versus escore de dor. / Introduction: Morphine administration using patient controlled analgesia (PCA) for treatment of post surgical and traumatic pain has been a current practice in many hospitals. However, large or repeated doses of this opioid are associated to dose dependent adverse events, including, respiratory depression. Considering patients submitted to thoracic surgery, in addition to the postoperatory analgesia, two other relevant parameters must be considered: regional anesthesia (intrathecal) in the intra-operatory period, which should contribute to the respiratory function improvement and decrease in the extubation time; and the cardiopulmonary bypass (OPCAB), that potentially alters the drugs\' kinetics. Objectives: To investigate the influence of intrathecal morphine administration and cardiopulmonary bypass (OPCAB) in the morphine PCA drug requirements, area under the curve of morphine plasma concentration versus time and pain scores in the postoperative period, and to choose a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model to correlate these variables. In addition, an analytical method was developed to quantify morphine in plasma. Methods: 59 patients submitted to elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with (CPB) and without cardiopulmonary bypass (OPCAB), with and without intrathecal morphine in the intra-operative period were distributed by the combination of the above mentioned interventions. In the postoperative period, all the patients were given an IV bolus of 1mg of morphine, and then PCA device was installed in the intensive care unit by a venous catheter after the orotracheal extubation. Morphine PCA was delivered on demand (boluses of 1 mg), lock-out of 5 min until 36 hours of the postoperative period. A serial of blood samples were collected from venous catheter of patients at the postoperative period (3,6,12,18,24,36 hrs) and morphine plasma concentrations were determined by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry ((LC-MS/MS ESI+)) after the purification of plasma samples. Pain scores were monitored during the same period by a visual analogue scale, VAS or 1-2-3 pain scale. PK-PD modeling was investigated by applying the GraphPad Prism 5.0. Results: Drug dose requirements and analgesia were significant different in patients of groups investigated. EMAX model and the hysteresis curve were proposed by PK-PD modeling to correlate drug requirements and AUC 0-36 or VAS. Conclusions: LC-MS/MS (ESI+) method was adequate for drug measurements in plasma. Morphine dose requirements and analgesia were different by comparison of groups. Lower doses of morphine by PCA were required for the groups that have received intrathecal morphine intraoperatively. It was demonstrated a non linear correlation between parameters by EMAX model when drug requirements and AUC0-36 were plotted, and the hysteresis curve was obtained when analgesia dose requirements was plotted against pain score.
