Introduction. As is known, the selection of optimal conditions for the analysis of extracts from medicinal plant raw materials (MPМ), as well as medicinal herbal preparations and pharmaceutical substances of plant origin, characterized by a complex variable composition of biologically active substances (BAS) by TLC, presents certain difficulties. For the design of mobile phases for the separation of mixtures of BAS of plant origin, in a thin layer of sorbent, the following approaches are used: literary sources; standard mobile phases; spot elution method; the scheme proposed by the firm Camag (Switzerland); model "PRISMA"; variocameras and others. In foreign literature, there are publications on the generalization of the available experimental data on the determination of various natural groups of BAS in objects of plant origin. However, such reviews did not reveal the regularities of the chromatographic behavior of individual BAS in a thin layer, as well as the influence of various factors on the reproducibility of Rf values. The study of the possibility of a theoretical approach to the choice of optimal conditions for chromatography of groups of BAS of different polarity, allowing them to separate, identify and quantify by TLC is a relevant and poorly developed area of chromatography in general.Aim. The aim of this work was to develop a theoretical approach to the choice of optimal conditions for the chromatographic separation of various groups of BAS of plant origin in a thin layer of sorbent.Materials and methods. To study the regularities of chromatographic behavior in a thin layer of representatives of the main classes of BAS present in MPМ (amino acids, flavonoids, tannins, simple sugars, ascorbic acid, fat-soluble vitamins), the value of the main factor affecting the parameters of the efficiency of the chromatographic process, the polarity of the eluent, was studied. As objects of research, we used ready-made chopped raw material of nettle leaves, produced by a domestic manufacturer, that meets the requirements of regulatory documents, as well as sea buckthorn fruits collected on the territory of the Voronezh region, according to the rules for harvesting MPМ of various morphological groups in fresh and dried form.Results and discussion. The regularities of elution and mathematical models describing the chromatographic behavior of plant BAS in a thin layer of sorbent have been established. Based on the totality of the results obtained, from the standpoint of the efficiency of the chromatographic process, the optimal conditions for their TLC analysis were selected and theoretically substantiated. To study the qualitative composition of BAS and to achieve a clear separation of zones on chromatograms, TLC methods were developed and tested on the studied MPМ using simple, frontal or two-dimensional chromatography.Conclusion.

Introduction. Urinary tract infections are a common group of diseases worldwide, affecting more than 150 million people every year. In about 30 % of patients with initial infection, UTI becomes chronic. Herbal medicines, along with synthetic diuretics and antibiotics, are widely used for the prevention and treatment of UTIs, which makes the search and isolation of various substances from plant materials an important task. The present study is devoted to the isolation of compounds belonging to the class of proanthocyanidins from the aerial part of the black crowberry (Empetrum nigrum L.).Aim. Method development for the isolation of individual dimeric type A proanthocyanidins from the aerial part of Empetrum nigrum and the elucidation of their chemical structure using modern physicochemical methods of analysis.Materials and methods. Shoots of Empetrum nigrum were collected next to the Saint Petersburg State Chemical-Pharmaceutical University Nursery Garden of Medicinal Plants (Leningrad region, Vsevolozhsky district, Priozerskoe highway, 38 km) in August 2019. Fraction analysis was performed through analytical high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a Prominence LC-20 (Shimadzu corp., Japan) equipped with a SPD-M20A diode-array detector, as well as by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) using a CAMAG HPTLC system (Switzerland). The isolation of compounds was carried out by open column chromatography using sorbents with different selectivity, as well as by preparative HPLC using a Smartline system (Knauer, Germany) equipped with a spectrophotometric detector. The structures of the isolated compounds were established by 1D and 2D NMR experiments (Bruker Avance III 400 MHz, Germany), as well as high-resolution mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS) (Bruker Micromass Q-TOF, Germany).Results and discussion. Using the developed methods, from the Empetrum nigrum shoots we managed to isolate and characterised three individual compounds belonging to the class of A-type proanthocyanidins. According to NMR and mass spectrometry data, compound 1 is epicatechin-(2β → O → 5, 4β → 6)-epicatechin, with an extremely rare type of intermonomer bond (2β → O → 5, 4β → 6). Compounds 2 and 3 are epicatechin-(2β → O → 7, 4β → 8)-epicatechin (procyanidin A2) and epicatechin-(2β → O → 7, 4β → 8)-catechin (procyanidin A1), respectively. All individual compounds (1-3) were found and isolated from Empetrum nigrum for the first time.Conclusion. As a result of the research, three individual compounds (A-type proanthocyanidins) were isolated from the aerial part of Empetrum nigrum. All individual compounds (1-3) were found and isolated from Empetrum nigrum for the first time. Future assessment of the isolated compounds biological activity is presumed.

Introduction. Microencapsulation is one of the promising areas for obtaining new dosage forms. The peculiarity of microencapsulated forms is that the substance is protected from the effects of various environmental factors that can cause their destruction (acidity of gastric juice, the effect of food, joint intake of other drugs, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, etc.). This method is used for various groups of drugs, such as antibiotics, nootropics, vitamins, probiotics, anticonvulsants, enzymes. Particular attention should be paid to antibacterial drugs, since the possibility of microencapsulation solves one of the most important problems in antibiotic therapy – the resistance of microorganisms.Text. The purpose of the review is to analyze modern research in the field of microencapsulation, to study trends and directions for the creation of microcapsules with high activity and bioavailability and with minimal side effects. The article provides brief information and main conclusions on the development of techniques and selection of conditions for microencapsulation of individual medicinal substances, on the study of polymers of various natures for use as carriers, on the methods of forming double shells of microcapsules, and also investigated the efficiency of microencapsulation of biologically active substances, such as antibacterial preparations, substances of plant and animal origin and preparations from various pharmacological groups. Variants of microencapsulation techniques for specific compounds that are suitable for substances similar in composition and action, as well as methods for creating microcapsules with double shells for compounds insoluble in water, are presented.Conclusion. The article shows the achievements and prospects of using microencapsulation of medicinal substances and their advantages over standard dosage forms. The active introduction of the developed methods into production will allow the creation of new dosage forms with known medicinal substances that have a prolonged effect, which will reduce the frequency of use of the drug, as well as retain their activity under the influence of negative factors of the internal environment of the body. Also, in the form of microcapsules, the substances are more active in comparison with non-encapsulated substances.

Introduction. Tranexamic acid is one of the most common drugs used to stop bleeding after trauma, in surgery and gynecology. The most common analytical method for the determination of this compound is reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). However, this compound belongs to the group of so-called poorly retained compounds due to its chemical structure. It is necessary to develop an analytical method that will allow the determination of tranexamic acid in human blood plasma with the least time, resource costs and without the use of specialized columns. Aim. The aim of this study is to develop a method for tranexamic acid in human plasma by high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass-spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) for pharmacokinetic studies. Materials and methods. Determination of tranexamic acid in plasma by HPLC-MS/MS. The samples were processed by acetonitrile protein precipitation. Results and discussion. This method was validated by next parameters: selectivity, matrix effect, calibration curve, accuracy, precision, recovery, lower limit of quantification, carry-over effect and stability. Conclusion. The method of the determination of tranexamic acid in human plasma was developed and validated by HPLC-MS/MS. The linearity in plasma sample was achieved in the concentration range of 100.00–15000.00 ng/ml. Method could be applied to tranexamic acid determination in plasma for pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence studies.

Introduction. Gestobutanoil is a synthetic pregnane steroid with gestagenic activity. Gestobutanoil has two pharmacologically active metabolites (AMOL and megestrol acetate). This implies the need for a detailed study of the kinetics of metabolites. It is rational to combine the study of the pharmacokinetics of gestobutanoil and its metabolites (AMOL and megestrol acetate). The simultaneous determination of several analytes in the rats’ serum can be carried out using chromatography-mass-spectrometry.Aim. Development of an analytical method for the simultaneous determination of gestobutanoil and two its metabolites in a biomatrix (rat serum).Materials and methods. The following methods were used to determine gestobutanoyl and two its metabolites in a biological matrix: GC-MS, HPLCESI-MS, HPLC-ESI-MS with derivatization, HPLC-APCI-MS.Results and discussion. When working with GC-MS, the chromatographic peaks of gestobutanoyl, AMOL, and megestrol acetate were strongly blurred and superimposed on each other, which is apparently due to the thermolability of the substances. The GC-MS method was abandoned in favor of HPLC. Analytes were separated by HPLC gradient elution on a C18 column. ESI ionization did not give typical protonated ions of gestobutanoyl and AMOL, and the intense signals of their cationized ions and fragment ions, which were observed in the spectra of AMOL and gestobutanoyl, could not ensure the reproducibility of the spectra, since the conditions of their formation are not suitable for routine analysis. Derivatization of analytes to form oximes and substituted hydrazones did not give the expected reaction products for HPLC-ESI-MS. APCI made it possible to remove intense cationized ions from the spectra of gestobutanoyl and AMOL and to increase the reliability of the method. The HPLCAPCI-MS technique was reproduced on model rat blood serum.Conclusion. An HPLC-MS method was developed for the simultaneous determination of gestobutanoyl, megestrol acetate, and AMOL. The technique was tested on a model rat blood serum containing all three analytes.

Introduction. Azomethine derivatives of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxamide are acyclic precursors of biologically active compounds derived from 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3H-benzoteopheno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-one. Examples of these groups of compounds with different pharmacological properties are given in the literature, but their cytostatic effect is mainly described. These data and the preparative availability allow us to judge the prospects for further study and molecular design in a number of azomethine derivatives of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxamide. Optimization of methods for the synthesis and analysis of substances of this series and the identification of structure-activity relationship are of considerable interest for medical chemistry and pharmaceutical science. The resulting leading compounds will allow us to further develop laboratory requirements for the synthesis of an active pharmaceutical substance.Aim. To make a predict, optimize the synthesis conditions and develop a method for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of pharmacologically active azomethine derivatives of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxamide.Materials and methods. The prediction of biological activity was carried out through the web resource PASS Online. The synthesis of the target azomethines was carried out by the interaction of aromatic aldehydes with 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxamide in an ethanol. The reaction was monitored by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). The determination of related impurities was done by HPLC. The analysis was carried out under the conditions of isocratic elution with a mobile phase of acetonitrile – water (70:30).Results and discussion. The results of the prediction of the biological activity of the constructed structures suggest the manifestation of cytostatic, antitubercular and anti-inflammatory activity characteristic of all target azomethines. The analysis of the reactivity revealed the influence of substituents of aldehydes contained in the aromatic core on the completeness of the condensation reaction. The spectral characteristics clearly confirmed the structure of the products, and the HPLC results showed the purity of the obtained substances, which is more than 95 %.Conclusion. As a result of the conducted studies, the structure of promising azomethine derivatives of 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carboxamide was justified and the method of their synthesis and analysis by HPLC was optimized.

Introduction. Acute toxicity of naltrexone hydrochloride nasal spray during intragastric administration to mice and local irritant effect on rabbits was studied. At all stages of the experiment, observations were made on the General condition of the animals. The state of homeostasis was evaluated using functional, hematological and morphometric methods. According to the results of research, there was no local irritant effect on the eyes of rabbits, as well as no toxic effect of high doses of the drug on animals. Introduction. Naltrexone hydrochloride in doses of 1.5– 5 mg/day has shown its effectiveness in the treatment of a number of diseases. Due to the lack of such a "low-dose" naltrexone registered on the pharmaceutical market, we have developed the composition of the nasal spray naltrexone hydrochloride. One of the stages of our research is to study the safety of the drug being developed. The first step in this direction was to study its acute toxicity and local irritant effect.Aim.

Valganciclovir and Ganciclovir are among such substances. Aim. The aim of this study is to develop a method for valganciclovir and ganciclovir in human plasma by high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass-spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) for pharmacokinetic studies.Materials and methods. Determination of valganciclovir and ganciclovir in plasma by HPLC-MS/MS. The samples were processed by acetonitrile protein precipitation.Results and discussion. This method was validated by next parameters: selectivity, matrix effect, calibration curve, accuracy, precision, recovery, lower limit of quantification, carry-over and stability.Conclusion. The method of the determination of valganciclovir and ganciclovir in human plasma was developed and validated by HPLC-MS/MS. The linearity in plasma sample was achieved in the concentration range of 5.00–1000.00 ng/ml for valganciclovir and 50.00–10000.00 ng/ml for ganciclovir.
