The mechanism of the inclusion was discussed by spectrofluoremetry, infrared spectrum and ^1H NMR spectrum. The results showed that a 1 : 1 (β-CD : gemfibrozil) complex was formed with an apparent association constant of 3.844 × 10^3 L·mol^-1. Based on the enhancement of the fluorescent intensity of gemfibrozil, a spectrofluorimetric method for the determination of gemfibrozil in bulk aqueous solution in the presence of β-CD was developed. The linear range was 3.30 ng·mL^- 1 -6.00 ug·mL^-1 with the detection limit of 0.980 ng·mL^-1. There was no interference from the excipients normally used in tablet composition and the serum main compositions. The proposed method was then successfully applied to the determination of gemfibrozil in capsules and serum.展开更多

The principle of bioisosterism was applied to design derivatives replacing the carboxylic acid group. The carboxylic acid group was replaced with bioisoteric groups, such as 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol and hydroxamic acid. The derivatives were then synthesized, characterized, and evaluated in rats for reduced gastrointestinal irritation and hypolipidemic effects. Gemfibrozil was used as standard for comparison. The derivatives demonstrated less gastric irritation and retained hypolipidemic effects, however the hypolipidemic affects were significantly less than that of Gemfibrozil. The results of this study offers a direction for further research on the application of bioisosterism for the design of new derivatives of Gemfibrozil and other fibric acid derivatives.展开更多

The carrier gas was helium. The internal standard was ibuprofen. After acidification with 3 mol·L -1 HCl solution, the plasma was extracted with n hexane — dichloromethane (3∶1) and then reacted with bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA). RESULTS: A good linearity was obtained from 0 4 to 60 0 μg·mL -1 of gemfibrozil in human plasma (γ=0 9992). The detection limit of gemfibrozil in plasma was 0 1 μg·mL -1 . The average recovery was 96 5%. The pharmacokinetics of gemfibrozil was determined by this GC MS method following a single oral dose of 600 mg gemfibrozil capsule given to each of 10 volunteers. The results showed that the plasma concentration time courses conformed to one compartment model. CONCLUSION: The established GC MS method was found to be a good method for determination of gemfibrozil in human plasma. The method was precise and sensitive.展开更多
