Introduction The first information about the synthetic production of furan substances appeared at the beginning of the 19th century, that is, at the dawn of organic chemistry as an independent science. However, only from the second half of the 19th century, from the time of the appearance and consolidation of the structural theory A.M.Butlerova and the establishment on its basis of the chemical structure of five-membered heterocycles, the necessary prerequisites were created for the isolation of the chemistry of furan compounds as derivatives of one of these parental cycles - furan. Historically, the first in the series of furan compounds was the synthesis in 1818 of pyroslucic acid during pyrogenetic decomposition of mucous acid. The resulting liquid by-product was not investigated, which delayed the discovery of furan by more than 50 years. This is followed by the accidental discovery of furfural Dobereiner in 1832, while trying to synthesize formic acid from starch and sugar by the action of sulfuric acid and manganese dioxide. Furfural was obtained again in 1840 by treating oat flour with sulfuric acid, and, in quantities sufficient for research, and Stanhouse managed to determine its most important properties and derive an empirical formula. By the same time (1845), the production of furfural from bran and the appearance of the name of this substance, which has survived to this day, appeared - furfural, which was supposed to express the source of its production and external signs (furfur - bran, oleum - oil). From this name, the now generally accepted name of the main heterocycle (furfuran, furan) and all its derivatives was subsequently derived. For 60 years, 5-nitrofuran derivatives have been used in medical practice and veterinary medicine to treat bacterial and some protozoal infections. The antimicrobial activity of this class of chemical compounds was first established in 1944. M. Dood, W. Stillman and immediately attracted the attention of doctors. Studies have shown that among the numerous derivatives of furan studied since the end of the 18th century, only compounds containing (NO 2 -group) strictly in the position of the 5th furan ring are characterized by antimicrobial properties. A number of different derivatives of 5-nitrofuran were proposed for use in medical practice in the 50-60s. Then, in connection with the introduction into clinical practice of a large number of highly effective chemotherapeutic drugs in other classes of chemical substances, which exceeded in the degree of activity of nitrofurans and had a number of advantages in pharmacokinetic and toxicological characteristics, interest in the drugs of this group decreased. Nevertheless, nitrofurans are still used in medical practice.

Chapter 1. General characteristics of furacilin.1.1. General characteristics of furacilin.

The basis of the chemical structure of drugs, derivatives of furan, is a five-membered oxygen-containing heterocycle. In medical practice, drugs are used derivatives of 5-nitrofurfural (furfural, 2-fu-rancarbaldehyde):

The drugs of this group include furacilin, furadonin, furazolidone, furagin. The drugs of this group were first obtained in England in the 1940s. when disposing of furfural. Furacilin, furadonin, furazolidone have been synthesized in our country. Medicines - derivatives of 5-nitrofurfural - antibacterial agents with a wide spectrum of action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, some large viruses, Trichomonas, lamblia. Depending on the nature of the substituent, there are some differences in the spectrum of their antibacterial action. For example, furacilin affects gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Furazolidone is most effective against gram-negative bacteria, as well as Trichomonas and lamblia. Furadonin and furagin are most effective for urinary tract infections. The peculiarities of the action of drugs determine the indications for use and the methods of using individual drugs. The mechanism of antibacterial activity of drugs of furan derivatives is based on the violation of DNA and protein synthesis of microbial cells. When this - N0 2 -rpynna is reduced to the amino group -NH 2.

1.2. Getting and physical properties of furacilin. Furacilin (furacin, nitrofuran, nitrofurazone, 5-nitrofurfurylidene semicarbazone) C 6 H 6 O 4 N 4.

It is a yellow or greenish-yellow crystalline powder, odorless, bitter in taste. Melts at a temperature of 227-232 ° C with decomposition. Furacilin is very slightly soluble in water (1: 4200), slightly soluble in 95% alcohol, practically insoluble in ether, and soluble in alkalis. The solution is yellow or colorless. Aqueous solutions lose antimicrobial activity during long-term storage. The initial product for the synthesis of all preparations of the nitrofuran series is a very accessible substance, furfural, obtained from the waste of various agricultural products (corn cobs, sunflower husks). The production of furacilin is based on the nitration of furfural in a mixture of acetic anhydride and acetic acid. The resulting 5-nitrofurfurfural diacetate is hydrolyzed and the resulting 5-nitrofurfural is condensed with hydrochloric semicarbazide:

1.3. Furacilin identification methods. For authenticity testing, the IR spectra of nitrofuran derivatives are used. They are compressed in the form of tablets with potassium bromide and the spectra are recorded in the range of 1900-1700 cm -1. The IR spectra should completely coincide with the IR spectra of the GSO. The IR spectrum of furacilin has absorption bands at 971, 1020, 1205, 1250, 1587, 1784 cm -1. Chemical reactions used to identify furacilin. The authenticity of furacilin is established by a color reaction with an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. When using dilute alkali solutions, nitrofural forms an orange-red acisol: When furacilin is heated in solutions of alkali metal hydroxides, the furan cycle breaks down and forms sodium carbonate, hydrazine and ammonia. The latter is detected by a change in the color of the wet red litmus paper:

Typical color reactions, which make it possible to distinguish 5-nitrofuran derivatives from each other, give an alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide in combination with acetone: nitrofural acquires a dark red color. Furacilin is also identified by the general formation reaction of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (melting point 273 ° C). It precipitates when a solution of the drug in dimethylformamide is boiled with a saturated solution of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and a 2 M solution of hydrochloric acid. A solution of nitrofural in dimethylformamide after adding a freshly prepared 1% sodium nitroprusside solution and 1 M sodium hydroxide solution gives a red color. Nitrofuran derivatives form colored insoluble complex compounds with salts of silver, copper, cobalt and other heavy metals in a slightly alkaline medium. When a 1% solution of copper (II) sulfate, a few drops of pyridine, and 3 ml of chloroform are added to the nitrofurantoin solution (in a mixture of dimethylformamide and water), the chloroform layer becomes green. Complex compounds of nitrofural and furazolidone under these conditions are not recovered by chloroform. Redox reactions (formation of a "silver mirror", with Fehling's reagent) can be performed after alkaline hydrolysis, accompanied by the formation of aldehydes. 1.4. Methods for the quantitative determination of furacilin. The quantitative determination of nitrofural exhibiting reducing properties is performed iodometric method based on oxidation with iodine in an alkaline medium (to improve solubility, sodium chloride is added to the sample and the mixture is heated). A titrated solution of iodine in an alkaline medium forms hypoiodite: Hypoiodite oxidizes nitrofural to 5-nitrofurfural:
After the end of the furacilin oxidation process, the solution is acidified and the released excess iodine is titrated with sodium thiosulfate:
A known method for the determination of nitrofural bromatometric method based on the oxidation of the hydrazine group in the presence of concentrated acids at a temperature of 80-90 ° C:
Furazidine-potassium is quantitatively determined acidimetrically by titrating with 0.01 M hydrochloric acid solution (bromothymol blue indicator). To authenticate and quantify nitrofural, use UV spectra its 0.0006% - solutions in a mixture of dimethylformamide with water (1:50). The absorption maxima of such a solution in the region of 245-450 nm are at 260 and 375 nm, and the minimum is at 306 nm. The maxima of the second absorption band (365-375 nm) are more specific to the 5-nitrofuran derivatives, since they are due to the presence of various electron-donor groups in position 2 of the furan ring. Quantitative spectrophotometric determination is performed at 375 nm and the content is calculated using a standard nitrofural sample. The solvent for UV spectrophotometric determination can be a 50% sulfuric acid solution, in which nitrofural has an absorption maximum at 227 nm. Also quantitative determination of nitrofural, you can carry out photocolorimetric method based on the use of color reactions with caustic alkali in various solvents. 1.5. Pharmacological action, use in medicine and storage of furacilin drugs. pharmachologic effect...

CHAPTER 2. Development of methods for the analysis of the drug furacilin with boric acid 2.1. Validation evaluation of the methods of qualitative and quantitative analysis of the ingredients of the medicinal product according to the "Specificity" indicator. The specificity of a technique should be understood as the ability to reliably determine an analyte in the presence of other sample components. To determine the specificity, we prepare 3 model mixtures: 1) both ingredients according to the recipe; 2) only the first ingredient according to the recipe; 3) only the second ingredient according to the recipe. Further, a validation assessment of the qualitative analysis of each of the ingredients of the drug was carried out in terms of the "specificity" indicator. To establish the specificity, one should make sure that there is no positive effect of the reaction on concomitant substances.

Furacilin qualitative analysis technique: To 0.5 ml of the test solution add 2 drops of sodium hydroxide solution - an orange-red color appears

Technique for the qualitative analysis of boric acid: Evaporate to dryness 5 drops of the drug, add 1 ml of alcohol 95% and ignite. The flame turns green.

In the model mixture No. 1, which contains both ingredients according to the recipe (furacilin and boric acid), using qualitative reactions, they prove the authenticity of each component of the drug. In the model mixture No. 2, containing only furacilin, using qualitative reactions to the second component (boric acid), the absence of an analytical effect in the first component was confirmed. In model mixture No. 3, containing only boric acid, qualitative reactions to the first component (furacilin) ​​confirm the absence of an analytical effect in the second component. Thus, according to the studies carried out, the specificity of the methods for identifying furacilin and boric acid in the drug has been proven.

Method for the quantitative determination of furacilin:

Furacilin solution 0.02%, 1 ml of the test solution is introduced into a volumetric flask with a capacity of 50 ml, 20 ml of water, 5 ml of 1 M sodium hydroxide solution are poured, the volume of the solution is brought to the mark with water, stirred and through

The optical density of the solution (Ax) is measured for 20 minutes on a spectrophotometer at a wavelength of about 440 nm. The thickness of the solution layer in the cuvette is 10 mm, the reference solution is water.

In parallel, a similar determination of optical density is carried out using 1 ml of 0.02% (0.0002 g / ml) solution of PCO furacilin (Ast). The furacilin content (X) in percent is calculated by the formula

X =

Boric acid... To 0.5 ml of the drug add 3 ml of glycerin neutralized by phenolphthalein and titrate with shaking with 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution until pink coloration

1 ml of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution corresponds to 0.006183 g of boric acid.

In the model mixture No. 1, which contains both ingredients according to the recipe (furacilin and boric acid), using quantitative reactions, we determine two components. In the model mixture No. 2, containing only furacilin, using quantitative reactions on the second component (boric acid), we prove the absence of the influence of the first component on the analysis In the model mixture No. 3, containing only boric acid, by means of a quantitative reaction to the first component (furacilin), the absence of the influence of the second component on the analysis was confirmed. Conclusion: We determined the validation score for the specificity indicator

2.2. Validation evaluation of the method for the quantitative determination of furacilin by the "Linearity" indicator. The linearity of the method is the presence of a direct proportional dependence of the analytical signal on the concentration or amount of the analyte in the analyzed sample. Linearity is expressed by the equation y = ax + b ... This equation is called linear regression. Parameter b of the calibration function characterizes the segment cut off on the ordinate axis and corresponding to the value of the blank experiment, and the coefficient a characterizes the slope of the calibration curve and is a reflection of the sensitivity of the technique. If during the control experiment, the titrant is not consumed, then the calibration graph takes the form of a straight line coming out of the origin and having a slope equal to 1. The main characteristic of linearity is the correlation coefficient, a measure of the relationship of the measured phenomena. The correlation coefficient (denoted by "r") is calculated using a special formula:

For analytical purposes, you can only use the technique for which the dependence of the function on the argument is correlated with the coefficient r, which should be ≥ 0.99.

To check the linearity, 5 experimental points were taken. Accurate weighed portions of furacilin (0.02 g) were used, placed in a volumetric flask with a capacity of 100 ml, dissolved in 10 ml of dimethylformamide, cooled, the volume of the solution was adjusted to the mark with water, and solutions were prepared from them so that the concentration of furacilin in solutions was 0.0004 %, 0.0003%, 0.0004%, 0.0005%, 0.0006%. The optical density of each solution was measured on a spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 375 nm in a cuvette with a layer thickness of 10 mm. Purified water was used as a reference solution. Table 1 - The results of measuring the optical density.

The data obtained were used to construct a calibration graph of the dependence of optical density on concentration.

Figure 1- Calibration graph of the dependence of optical density on the concentration of furacilin. The obtained data were used to calculate the linearity equation coefficient and the correlation coefficient. y = 606 x + 0,0046 r = 0,9863 Conclusion: For this sample, the value of the correlation coefficient was 0.9963. This allows us to assert that there is a linear dependence of optical density on concentration.

2.3. Validation evaluation of the method for the quantitative determination of furacilin and boric acid according to the "Correctness" indicator. Right analytical technique is the degree of closeness of the experimental results to the true value in the entire measurement area. The main factor determining correctness is the bias value. To determine the correctness, we prepare 3 samples: - the first (low concentration) - the second (medium concentration) - the third (high concentration) Solution A1. Accurate weighed portions of furacilin (0.01 g) and boric acid (1.0 g) were placed in a volumetric flask with a capacity of 100 ml, dissolved in 30 ml of water when heated, and after cooling, brought to the mark with water. Solution A2. Accurate weighed portions of furacilin (0.02 g) and boric acid (2.0 g) were placed in a volumetric flask with a capacity of 100 ml, dissolved in 30 ml of water when heated, and after cooling, brought to the mark with water. Solution A 3. Accurate weighed portions of furacilin (0.03 g) and boric acid (3.0) were placed in a volumetric flask with a capacity of 100 ml, dissolved in 30 ml of water when heated, and after cooling, brought to the mark with water. Then, three parallel determinations of each model sample were carried out. To evaluate the results obtained, the simplest and most obvious criterion is openability (R), which is calculated by the formula:

R = × 100%; Statistical processing of the analysis results is presented in table 2. .

SD = = = 0.92;

T = = 2,14.

GFXI tabular coefficient = 2.306. Since the Student's experimental criterion = 2.14 ˂ of the table, the method is correct and does not contain systematic errors.

2.4. Validation evaluation of the method for the quantitative determination of furacilin by the indicator "Precision" Precision(reproducibility) is a characteristic of random scattering. It is essentially a measure of the sum of random errors. When establishing precision, it should be borne in mind that this characteristic is of 3 levels: - repeatability (convergence); - intermediate precision (within laboratory reproducibility); - interlaboratory reproducibility. For pharmaceutical analysis purposes, only the first level is sufficient. When establishing repeatability, at least 6 parallel determinations are carried out, then the standard deviation (SD) and relative deviation (RSD) are calculated. It should be noted that not a single regulatory document establishes the lower limit of precision and it is determined by the used analysis method: SD = ; RSD = × 100%. Quantitative determination method. To determine the precision, we prepare a model solution of furacilin with boric acid No. 2. To do this, they took exact weights of furacilin (0.02 g) and boric acid (0.9 g), placed in a volumetric flask with a capacity of 100 ml, dissolved in 30 ml of water when heated, and after cooling, brought it to the mark with water. Three parallel titrations were carried out at three concentration levels (9 determinations). Definition # 1. Three parallel titrations were carried out, measuring 1 ml of LP each time. Definition number 2. Three parallel titrations were carried out, measuring 2 ml of LP each time. Definition number 3. Three parallel titrations were carried out, measuring 3 ml of LP each time. The calculation of the boric acid content (g) is carried out according to the following formula:; We enter all the data obtained in table No. 3.

Physicochemical properties


Nitrofuran derivatives are yellow crystalline substances with greenish or orange hues, odorless. They are very slightly soluble or practically insoluble in water and ethanol, and slightly soluble in dimethylformamide.

Nitrofural (furacilin) ​​exhibits acidic properties (imide group) in solutions and dissolves in alkalis better than other drugs.

For authentication and quantitative determination, UV spectra are used in various solvents (ethanol, dimethylformamide, etc.).

^

Chemical properties and methods of analysis


Derivatives of 5-nitrofuran are acidic substances: nitrofural (furacilin) ​​and nitrofurantoin (furadonin) - NH-acids, furazolidone - CH-acid. The nitro group as a strong electron acceptor enhances their acidic properties. In nitrofural, they are due to the mobile hydrogen atom of the imide group. And in nitrofurantoin - ketoenol and lactim-lactam tautomerism in the hydantoin core.

The authenticity of preparations derived from 5-nitrofuran is established by a color reaction with an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. When interacting with dilute alkali solutions without heating, salts are formed without destruction of the furan cycle:

nitrofural (furacilin) ​​orange-red staining
Nitrofurantoin (furadonin) in dilute alkali solutions at room temperature forms a dark red salt as a result of tautomeric transformations of the hydantoin residue:

nitrofurantoin (furadonin) dark red coloration
A solution of furazolidone under the same conditions, but when heated, acquires a red-brown color due to the rupture of the lactone cycle and the formation of salt:

furazolidone red-brown staining
Furazolidone and nitrofurantoin (furadonin) can be distinguished from each other by the different colors of the products of the interaction of drug solutions with alcoholic solutions of alkalis in a medium of non-aqueous solvents of the basic nature (dimethylformamide - DPA) (tables 2, 3).

^ Results of the interaction of 5-nitrofuran derivatives with an alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide in combination with acetone

The quantitative determination of 5-nitrofuran derivatives can be carried out by a photocolorimetric method based on the use of color reactions of drugs with alkali solutions.

Nitrofuran derivatives form colored insoluble compounds with heavy metal salts (AgNO 3, CuSO 4, CoCl 2, etc.). In particular, nitrofural (furacilin) ​​with silver ions forms an abundant reddish precipitate:

red sediment
Hydrolytic degradation. Under severe exposure to alkali solutions, all derivatives of 5-nitrofuran break the furan cycle. Other transformations are individual for each drug, depending on the nature of the substituent. For example, when nitrofural (furacilin) ​​is heated in an alkali solution, hydrazine, sodium carbonate and ammonia are formed, which is detected by the blue discoloration of wet red litmus paper:

Formation of hydrazones. All 5-nitrofuran derivatives react with phenylhydrazine or 2,4-nitrophenylhydrazine to give the corresponding hydrazones, which can be identified by their melting point. So, when boiling solutions of drugs in dimethylformamide with a saturated solution of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and a 2 mol / L solution of hydrochloric acid, a precipitate is formed with a melting point of 273 0 С:


nitrofurantoin

5-nitro-2-furfurylidine-phenylhydrazone 1-aminohydantoin
Redox properties. As a result of alkaline hydrolysis of derivatives of the 5-nitrofuran group, an aldehyde (5-nitrofurfural) is formed on which characteristic redox reactions can be carried out ("silver mirror", with Fehling's reagent).

The hydrolysis product of nitrofural (furacilin) ​​is also hydrazine, an energetic reducing agent:

quantitation

The reducing properties of nitrofural are used for its quantitative determination by the iodometric method in an alkaline medium (to improve solubility, sodium chloride is added to the sample and the mixture is heated). A titrated iodine solution in an alkaline medium forms hypoioditis:

Hypoioditis oxidizes nitrofural to 5-nitrofurfural:

After the end of the nitrofural oxidation process, the solution is acidified and the liberated excess of iodine is titrated with sodium thiosulfate:

Nitrofurantoin and furazolidone, which exhibit weak basic properties, are quantitatively determined by non-aqueous titration in dimethylformamide. Titrate with 0.1 M sodium methoxide solution (indicator thymol blue).

The quantitative determination of nitrofural, nitrofurantoin and furazolidone can be carried out by a photocolorimetric method based on the use of color reactions with caustic alkali in various solvents.
^ Mechanism of action and use of 5-nitrofuran derivatives
The mechanism of action of 5-nitrofuran derivatives is the simultaneous blockade of several enzyme systems of the microbial cell. Nitrofurans are quite well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract; their bioavailability ranges from 50 to 90-95%.
Nitrofural (furacillin) locally, externally. Outwardly, in the form of aqueous 0.02% (1: 5000) or alcoholic 0.066% (1: 1500) solutions - irrigate wounds and apply wet bandages.
Nitrofurantoin (furadonin)- with bacterial infections of the urinary tract (pyelitis, pyelonephritis , cystitis, urethritis), prevention of infections during urological operations or examination (cystoscopy, catheterization, etc.).
Furazolidone - dysentery, paratyphoid fever, giardiasis, foodborne toxicoinfections; Trichomonas colpitis, urethritis; infected wounds and burns.

Furazolidone is not used in the treatment of children under 1 month of age.

To determine the authenticity of amiodarone and griseofulvin, IR spectroscopy and UV spectrophotometry are used, as well as TLC and HPLC methods.

The identification of drugs is carried out using chemical methods, so a solution of griseofulvin in concentrated sulfuric acid under the action of potassium dichromate acquires a red color.

The presence of chloride ion is determined in amiodarone.

The quantitative determination of amiodarone is performed by the neutralization method. The weighed portion is dissolved in a mixture of ethanol and a 0.01 M solution of hydrochloric acid. Titration is carried out by potentiometric method using 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution. The volume of titrant used for titration is set on a potentiometric curve between two inflection points.

The quantitative determination of amiodarone and griseofulvin can be performed by HPLC. Spectrophotometric method in anhydrous ethanol can determine the quantitative content of griseofulvin. Other methods have also been developed.
^ Mechanism of action and use of benzofuran derivatives

Amiodarone, unlike many antiarrhythmic drugs, has a dual mechanism of action at the same time: antiarrhythmic and antianginal effects.

Amiodarone is used internally for chronic heart ischemia with angina pectoris syndrome and heart rhythm disturbances in the form of 0.2 g tablets or a 5% solution is injected intravenously.

The mechanism of action of griseofulvin is not fully disclosed. The characteristic morphological changes caused by griseofulvin (twisting, increased branching and curvature of the hyphae), apparently, are due to a violation of the synthesis of the cell wall. In accordance with modern concepts, the antifungal effect of the drug is associated with the suppression of DNA replications and the subsequent suppression of cell division in dermatophytes.

Griseofulvin, which is a fungicidal agent, is prescribed orally in tablets of 0.125 g or externally in the form of 2.5% liniment (suspension) for the treatment of patients with dermatomycosis caused by pathogenic fungi.

In the nitrofural molecule, the nitrogen of the imine group has basic properties and is involved in complexation reactions with heavy metal cations.

As a result of the shift of the electron density to carbonyl oxygen, nitrofural exhibits the properties of a weak NH-acid.

Nitrofural is characterized by prototropic tautometry:

Quality control

Determination of authenticity. Determination of the authenticity of furacilin is carried out by spectrometric methods.

Identification by IR spectroscopy consists in comparing the obtained spectrum with the spectrum of a working standard furacilin sample.

The absorption of a furacilin solution obtained by dissolving a weighed portion of the substance in DMF has two maxima: at 260 and 375 nm. The ratio of absorbance measured at 375 nm to absorbance measured at 260 nm is 1.15 to 1.30.

The determination of the authenticity by the ratio of the absorption of the solution at two wavelengths A 375 / A 260 allows the test to be carried out without a standard sample.

A standard nitrofural sample is required for authenticity determination by thin layer silica gel chromatography. 10 mg of nitrofural and 10 mg of its standard sample are dissolved in 10 ml of methanol. A mixture of methanol and nitromethane (10:90 V / V) is used as a mobile phase, and a solution of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride is used as a developer. The main spot of the analyte in size, position and color intensity should coincide with the results of TLC determination for the nitrofural standard.

The authenticity of nitrofural is also determined by a chemical method. For this, about 1 mg of the substance is dissolved in 1 ml of dimethylformamide. An alcoholic solution of KOH is added to the resulting solution, a red-violet color appears. It can be assumed that, like aliphatic nitro compounds, potassium nitronate is formed in solution:

The interaction of furan derivatives with concentrated alkalis leads to rupture of the furan cycle and side chain with the formation of various decomposition products: formaldehyde with a characteristic pungent odor and ammonia, which gives a blue discoloration of wet litmus paper.

The reaction of hydrolytic cleavage of furacilin in an alkaline medium:

Unofficial reaction: the formation of crystals of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone-5-nitrofurfural (Tm 273 ° C) as a result of boiling the drug solution in a DMF solution with a saturated solution of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and a 2 mol / L solution of hydrochloric acid. 1st stage:

Complexation reactions are characteristic of nitrofural. In a solution of the substance in dimethylformamide, when pyridine and a solution of copper salt CuSO 4 are added, a colored coordination compound is formed:

Purity tests. The pH value of the furacilin solution is monitored. To do this, 1.0 g of the substance is dissolved in 100 ml of water (freed from carbon dioxide), shaken and filtered. The pH of the filtrate is 5.0-7.0.

The impurities of related substances are controlled by liquid chromatography. These include, for example:

Sulphated ash - no more than 0.1% per 1.0 g.

In a purity test, the weight loss on drying is determined. The mass of the substance should not decrease by more than 0.5% for a sample of 1 g when dried in an oven at 105 ° C.

Quantitation. The quantitative determination of nitrofural is carried out in a place protected from bright light. Dissolve 60 mg of the substance in dimethylformamide and dilute the resulting solution with water to 500 ml. A 5 ml aliquot is diluted to 100 ml with water. A solution of a standard sample of nitrofural is prepared in the same way. Take electronic spectra of both solutions and measure the absorbance at a wavelength of 375 nm. Calculate the content of nitrofural in the substance according to the formula:

where Cx and Cst- concentration, Ax and Ast- light absorption of solutions of the analyte and the standard sample.

3. Quantification

Theoretical basis

To determine the content of medicinal substances in tablets, a certain mass of powder of crushed tablets should be taken. To obtain an average sample, it is necessary to grind at least 20 tablets and take an exact sample from this mixture.

The quantitative determination of furacilin in the preparation is performed by the iodometric method based on the oxidation of the preparation with iodine in an alkaline medium. Previously, to improve the solubility of the drug, the mixture is heated. A titrated iodine solution in an alkaline medium forms hypoiodide:

Hypoiodide oxidizes furacilin to 5-nitrofurfural:

At the end of the oxidation process, the solution is acidified and the liberated excess of iodine is titrated with sodium thiosulfate:

Analysis progress.

About 0.8 g (accurately weighed) of the powder of crushed tablets is placed in a volumetric flask with a capacity of 100 cm3, 70 cm3 of water is added and dissolved in a water bath at 70 - 80 ° C until a clear solution is obtained.

The solution is cooled and made up to the mark with water and mixed.

In a conical flask with a capacity of 50 cm3, 5 cm5 of iodine solution with a molar equivalent concentration of 0.01 mol / dm3 is placed, 0.1 cm3 of NaOH solution and 5 cm3 of the prepared solution of the drug are added.

After 1-2 minutes, 2 cm3 of diluted sulfuric acid is added to the solution and the released iodine is titrated from the microburette with a sodium thiosulfate solution with a molar equivalent concentration of 0.01 mol / dm3 in the presence of a starch indicator.

Protocol No. 3

Aseptic unit. Organization of work in aseptic conditions.



Asepsis includes a number of successive measures that complement each other, and a mistake made in one link of this series negates all the work done and subsequent work.

1. Preseptic (gateway) - designed to prepare personnel for work.

2. Aseptic - is intended for the preparation of dosage forms.

3. Hardware - it is equipped with autoclaves, sterilizers, devices that allow receiving water for injection.

Requirements for the premises. The production of medicines under aseptic conditions is carried out in "clean" rooms, in which the air purity is standardized by the content of microbial and mechanical particles.

The aseptic unit is usually located away from sources of contamination with microorganisms (patient service room, washing, filling, sanitary unit).

In rooms for the preparation of medicines under aseptic conditions, the walls should be painted with oil paint or lined with light tiles, and there should be no protrusions, cornices, cracks. The ceilings are painted with glue or water-based paint. The floors are covered with linoleum or rails with compulsory welding of seams. Doors and windows must fit tightly and have no gaps.



The aseptic unit is equipped with supply and exhaust ventilation with a predominance of air supply over the exhaust. To reduce microbial contamination, it is recommended to install air purifiers that provide effective air purification by filtration through ultrafine fiber filters and ultraviolet radiation.

For air disinfection in the aseptic unit, unshielded bactericidal irradiators are installed: wall-mounted BN-150), ceiling (OBP-300), mobile beacon type BPE-450); bactericidal lamps BUV-25, BUV-30, BUV-60 based on a power of 2-2.5 W per 1 m 3 of the room volume, which are switched on for 1-2 hours before starting work in the absence of people. Switch: I of these irradiators should be located in front of the entrance to the room, interlocked with a light board "Do not enter, the bactericidal irradiator is on". The entrance to the room where the unshielded germicidal lamp is turned on is allowed only after it has been turned off, a long stay in the specified room - only 15 minutes after the unshielded germicidal lamp is turned off.

In the presence of personnel, shielded bactericidal irradiators can be operated, which are installed at a height of 1.8-2 m, at the rate of 1 W per 1 m 3 of the room, provided that directed radiation to people in the room is excluded.

Since ultraviolet irradiators form toxic products (ozone and nitrogen oxides) in the air, ventilation must be turned on during their operation.

All equipment and furniture brought into the aseptic unit are pretreated with napkins moistened with a disinfectant solution (1% chloramine B solution, 0.75% chloramine B solution with 0.5% detergent, 3% hydrogen peroxide solution with 0.5% detergent funds). Storing unused equipment in the aseptic unit is strictly prohibited. The aseptic unit is cleaned at least once a shift using disinfectants.

General cleaning of the aseptic unit is carried out once a week. At the same time, the premises are, if possible, freed from equipment, walls, doors, floors are washed and disinfected. After disinfection, it is irradiated with ultraviolet light.

Before entering the aseptic unit, there should be rubber mats, which are moistened with a disinfectant solution once per shift. The aseptic unit is separated from other premises of the pharmacy by air locks.

Personnel requirements . Individuals involved in the preparation of medicines under aseptic conditions must observe strict rules of personal hygiene. When entering the gateway, they must put on special shoes, wash their hands with soap and a brush, put on a sterile gown, a 4-layer gauze bandage, a hat (while carefully removing the hair), shoe covers. The best is the use of a helmet and overalls. The gauze bandage should be changed every 4 hours. After putting on sterile technological clothing, the personnel should rinse their hands with water for injection and treat them with a disinfectant solution of ethyl alcohol 80%, a solution of chlorhexidine bigluconate in 70% ethyl alcohol or a 0.5% solution of chloramine B (in the absence of other substances). It is prohibited to enter from the airlock to the room for preparation and packaging of medicines under aseptic conditions in non-sterile sanitary clothes. It is also forbidden to go outside the aseptic unit wearing sterile sanitary clothing.

Sanitary clothes, gowns, gauze, textile products, cotton wool are sterilized in bixes in steam sterilizers at a temperature of 132 ° C for 20 minutes or at 120 ° C for 45 minutes and stored in closed boxes for no more than 3 days. Shoes are disinfected outside and stored in airlocks before and after work. Persons with infectious diseases, open wounds on the skin, carriers of pathogenic microflora should not be allowed to work until their complete recovery.


STERILIZATION

Sterilization (or de-feeding)- it is the process of complete destruction of microorganisms and their spores in medicinal substances, dosage forms, dishes, auxiliary materials, instruments and apparatus.

The term "sterilization" comes from lat. sterilis, which means sterile. Sterility is achieved by observing asepsis and using sterilization methods in accordance with the requirements of the State Federal University "Methods and Conditions of Sterilization", previously in the State Fund XI - article "Sterilization".

When choosing the method and duration of sterilization, it is necessary to take into account the properties, volume or weight of the materials to be sterilized.

Sterilization methods can be divided into: physical, mechanical, chemical.

Physical methods of sterilization. These include: thermal, or heat, sterilization, ultraviolet sterilization, radiation sterilization, sterilization by high-frequency currents.

Of the listed methods, in the conditions of pharmacies, thermal sterilization is used, as well as sterilization with ultraviolet rays. Other methods of sterilization in pharmacies have not yet found application.

Thermal sterilization. With this method of sterilization, the death of microorganisms occurs under the influence of high temperature due to the coagulation of proteins and the destruction of enzymes of microorganisms. The most widely used sterilization in pharmacy practice is dry heat and steam.

Steam sterilization under pressure is carried out in steam sterilizers (autoclaves) of various designs. The most convenient are those steam sterilizers in which the preset pressure and temperature are automatically maintained, and the possibility of drying auxiliary material (cotton wool, filter paper, gauze, etc.) after sterilization is also provided (Table 31). Currently, sterilizers such as VK-15, VK-30 (Fig. 137), GP-280, etc. are widely used. In the practice of hospital pharmacies, sterilizers such as GP-400, GPD-280 can also be used \ and GPS-500, which are similar in structure and principle of operation to the GP-280 sterilizer.

In CRA No. 3, a VK-75 autoclave sterilizer is used. Vertical steam sterilizers VK-ZO and VK-75 differ in the capacity of the sterilization chamber. They consist of a housing with a sterilization and water vapor chambers, a cover, a casing, electric heating elements, an electrical panel, an electrocontact manometer, a pressure gauge, an ejector, a safety valve, a water indicator and a pipeline with valves. The sterilization and water vapor chambers are combined into a single welded structure, but functionally separated, as a result of which it is possible to shut off the steam flow into the sterilization chamber during loading and unloading of the autoclave, as well as to automatically maintain the working pressure in the water vapor chamber for subsequent sterilization. Both chambers are made of stainless steel. The maximum steam pressure in the sterilization chamber is 0.25 MPa. Both sterilizers operate on a 220/380 V three-phase alternating current network.
