Chromatographic separation was carried out by using YMC Triart C18 (150 mm × 4.6 mm, 3μm, YMC, USA) column. 5% (v/v) acetonitrile-water binary mixture at pH 9.5 was used as a mobile phase. Metronidazole was chosen as an internal standard. Flow rate was 0.8 ml/min and column temperature was 25 °C in chromatographic separation. The studied wavelengths for thiamazole and metronidazole are 260 and 340 nm, respectively. This proposed method was suitably validated with respect to accuracy, precision, linearity, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). The calibration graph of thiamazole was linear from 4 ppm to 14 ppm. The recovery of the 5 mg thiamazole containing commercial tablet (Thyromazol) was 100.059%. The proposed RPLC method was successfully applied to the determination of thiamazole in commercial tablet formulation. Keywords –Thiamazole, tablet formulation, RPLC method, method validation, recovery. I. INTRODUCTION In the last years thiamazole became also a fashioned model substance for endocrine disruption (thyroid axis) studies thus During the last decades, there has been increasing evidence inhibits the production of the thyroid hormones.

The effects of initial concentrations of ferric, thiourea (Tu) and thiocyanate as well as temperature and pH values on gold leaching rates were studied. An initial gold leaching rate in the order of -9 -2 -1 10 mol cm s was obtained at 25℃, which was higher than rates obtained when either ferric-thiocyanate or ferric-thiourea solutions were used separately. The synergistic effect was attributed to the formation of a mixed ligand complex UU IR Au(Tu)2SCN. Determinations of apparent activation energy indicate that the process was controlled by a combination of chemical reaction and diffusion in the mixed lixiviant system.

  • IRENAT 300 Mg/Ml, Solution Buvable En Gouttes
    1. NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT Irenat Drops 300 mg sodium perchlorate, oral drops Sodium perchlorate monohydrate 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION 1 ml solution (approximately 15 drops) contains 344.2 mg sodium perchlorate monohydrate (equivalent to 300 mg sodium perchlorate) For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Oral drops 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Therapeutic indications For the treatment of hyperthyroidism, for thyroid blockade in the context of radionuclide studies of other organs using radioactively labelled iodine or of immunoscintigraphy to detect tumours using antibodies labelled with radioiodine. For the detection of a congenital iodine organification defect (perchlorate discharge test). 4.2 Posology and method of administration Posology Adults receive 4-5 x 10 Irenat drops daily (equivalent to 800-1000 mg sodium perchlorate) or, exceptionally, 5 x 15 Irenat drops daily (equivalent to 1500 mg sodium perchlorate) as an initial dose for the first 1-2 weeks. The mean maintenance dose is 4 x 5 Irenat drops (equivalent to 400 mg sodium perchlorate) per day. Children between the ages of 6 and 14 are treated throughout with a dose of 3-6 x 1 or 4-6 x 2 Irenat drops (equivalent to 60-240 mg sodium perchlorate) daily. When used for the perchlorate discharge test following administration of the dose of radioiodine tracer, a single dose is given of 30-50 Irenat drops (equivalent to 600-1000 mg sodium perchlorate) or 300 mg-600 mg/m 2 body surface area in children. As pretreatment for radionuclide studies not involving the thyroid itself and using radioactively labelled drugs or antibodies containing iodine or technetium, Irenat drops should be administered at doses of 10 – 20 drops (equivalent to 200-400 mg sodium perchlorate) and, in isolated cases, up to 50 drops (equivalent to 1000 mg sodium perchlorate) so as to reduce exposure of the thyroid to radiation and to block uptake of radionuclide into certain compartments.

  • Design, Synthesis, and Docking Study of Acyl Thiourea Derivatives As Possible Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors with a Novel Zinc Binding Group
    Scientia Pharmaceutica Article Design, Synthesis, and Docking Study of Acyl Thiourea Derivatives as Possible Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors with a Novel Zinc Binding Group Duraid H. Al-Amily * and Mohammed Hassan Mohammed Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, College of Pharmacy, University of Baghdad, Baghdad 10047, Iraq; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 September 2019; Accepted: 16 October 2019; Published: 22 October 2019 Abstract: Histone deacetylase inhibitors with zinc binding groups often exhibit drawbacks like non-selectivity or toxic effects. Thus, there are continuous efforts to modify the currently available inhibitors or to discover new derivatives to overcome these problems. One approach is to synthesize new compounds with novel zinc binding groups. The present study describes the utilization of acyl thiourea functionality, known to possess the ability to complex with metals, to be a novel zinc binding group incorporated into the designed histone deacetylase inhibitors. N-adipoyl monoanilide thiourea (4) and N-pimeloyl monoanilide thiourea (5) have been synthesized and characterized successfully. They showed inhibition of growth of human colon adenocarcinoma and mouse hepatoblastoma cells with low cytotoxic effect against normal human breast cells. Their binding mode to the active site of several histone deacetylases has been studied by docking and the results gave a preliminary indication that they could be successful histone deacetylase inhibitors. Keywords: histone deacetylase inhibitors; acyl thiourea derivatives; zinc binding group; distance from zinc ion 1. Introduction Histone deacetylases (HDACs) comprise a class of enzymes that catalyze the deacetylation of the "-amino groups of lysine residues at the N-termini of histones [1], proteins that act as a core for DNA compaction into nucleosomes that comprise chromatins [2].

  • Effects of Thiourea on the Skull of Triturus Newts During Ontogeny
    Effects of thiourea on the skull of Triturus newts during ontogeny Maja Ajdukovi¢1, Tijana Vu£i¢2 and Milena Cvijanovi¢1 1 Department of Evolutionary Biology, Institute for Biological Research ``Sini²a Stankovi¢'', National Institute of the Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia 2 Institute of Zoology, Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia ABSTRACT Background. In amphibians, thyroid hormone (TH) has a profound role in cranial development, especially in ossification of the late-appearing bones and remodeling of the skull. In the present study, we explored the influence of TH deficiency on bone ossification and resulting skull shape during the ontogeny of Triturus newt hybrid larvae obtained from interspecific crosses between T. ivanbureschi and T. macedonicus. Methods. Larvae were treated with two concentrations of thiourea (an endocrine disruptor that chemically inhibits synthesis of TH) during the midlarval and late larval periods. Morphological differences of the cranium were assessed at the end of the midlarval period (ontogenetic stage 62) and the metamorphic stage after treatment during the late larval period. Results. There was no difference in the ossification level and shape of the skull between the experimental groups (control and two treatment concentrations) at stage 62. During the late larval period and metamorphosis, TH deficit had a significant impact on the level of bone ossification and skull shape with no differences between the two treatment concentrations of thiourea. The most pronounced differences in bone development were: the palatopterygoid failed to disintegrate into the palatal and pterygoid portions, retardation was observed in development of the maxilla, nasal and prefrontal bones and larval organization of the vomer was retained in thiourea-treated larvae.

Two methods for the synthesis of the bisthioureas were employed. One involved the treatment of a diamine with si1 icon tetraisothiocyanate in benzene. The second involved treatment of the amine with ammonium thiocyanate in dilute acid. This latter synthesis was superior because of the ease of its use, the high yields obtained, and the purity of the products. Though this synthesis worked well for the preparation of phenylene-l,4-bis(thiourea), it yielded only bisthiocyanate salts in the syntheses of al iphatic thioureas. The oxidation of the bisthioureas was carried out using peracetic acid or hydrogen peroxide to give the corresponding thiourea S,S,S-trioxides.

Marina Mickael, Eric Morris, Mollie M Roush and Inder Sehgal* Marshall University School of Pharmacy, West Virginia, USA Abstract Community pharmacies are increasingly receiving prescriptions from veterinarians for dogs and cats to receive human medications. However, retail pharmacists are not routinely trained in relevant aspects of veterinary-specific pharmacotherapy, such as, signs of improvement, time to improvement, drug administration techniques and potential adverse effects. Thyroid diseases in dogs and cats are treated with human-approved drugs that may be referred to pharmacies. Hypothyroidism is far more frequent in dogs, while hyperthyroidism is far more frequent in cats. Important comparative aspects of canine hypothyroidism pharmacotherapy can be summarized as follows: 1) Canine hypothyroid disease is similar to Hashimoto’s thyroiditis in humans in many of its signs and is treated using levothyroxine; 2) The doses of levothyroxine given to dogs are strikingly higher than in people; 3) A reasonable therapeutic goal is resolution of symptoms in two weeks to two months and a normal total T4 value (≈0.4-3.7 µg/dL). Important comparative
