Objective To compare clinical effects of ropivacaine and hupivacaine administered in epidural space and study their pharmacokinetics and transfer across placenta. Methods Eighteen full-term nulliparous women aged 22-35yr, weighing 50-70 kg scheduled for cesarean section were randomized to one of two groups; group R received 0.75% ropivacame and group B received 0.5% hupivacaine for epidural block. Sensory and motor block, incidence of hypotension, blood gases of umbilical venous blood, Apgar score and NACS score of the neonates were investigated. Blood samples were taken from external jugular vein at 10, 15,30,60 and 120 min after epidural administration of local anesthetic and from umbilical vein for determination of plasma concentration of ropivacaine or bupivacaine by chromatography. Results The onset time and termination of sensory and motor block, the maximal height of block, incidence of hypotension, blood gases of umbilical venous blood, Apgar score and NACS score of the neonates were similar between the two groups. The plasma concentration of ropivacaine and bupivacaine peaked (613?90) ng.ml-1 and (51.3163.2) ng.ml-1 respectively, at 15-30 min after epidural administration. UV/ MV ratio was similar between the two groups (0.42 ? 0. 12 vs 0.48?0.15). Conclusion 0.75% ropivacaine and 0.5% bupivacaine administered in epidural space for cesarean section can produce adequate analgesia and equivalent clinical effects. Placental transfer of ropivacaine and bupivacaine are similar. The plasma concentration of ropivacaine and bupivacaine of maternal blood and umbilical venous blood are markedly lower than the concentration causing toxrcity, but safety margin of ropivacaine is wider than that of bupivacaine.

Aim: To establish a linear additive model for the predication of in vitro sinomenine hydrochloride release from the combination of immediate release, enteric-coated and sustained-release pellets based on the release profiles of each pellet type. Methods: Immediate release pellets were manufactured by extrusion/spher-onization technology. The operation of bottom-spraying in the fluid-bed equipment was conducted to enteric-coating using Eudragit~(R) L-30D-55 and sustained-release coating using Surelease~(R) . In vitro sinomenine hydrochloride release profiles of both uncoated and coated pellets were fitted to the chosen mathematical equations offered by the curve fitting toolbox of Matlab~(R) before a linear additive model was created based upon the best-to-fitting equations. The proportion of each pellet type in the combined format to generate the desired 24 h sinomenine hydrochloride release profile was solved by Matlab~(R). The predicted and assayed sinomenine hydrochloride release from the polled pellets was compared. Results: It was shown that the actual sinomenine hydrochloride release profiles of each pellet type were approximate to those of predicted ones. A linear additive model of the appropriate mathematical equations of each pellet was proven to be capable of controlling in vitro release of sinomenine hydrochloride multiple-unit pellets. Conclusion: A multiple-unit combined system of the selected pellets, as a novel sustained-release system, was successfully prepared. In vitro release performance of the calculated combination of each pellet type could be guaranteed by this approach in designing sustained-release drug delivery system.

An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of four quinolones in soil was developed. Soil samples were extracted by a mixture of 50% magnesium nitrate and 10% ammonia(96∶ 4, V/V)with an ultrasonic-assisted extraction, then purified and concentrated by HLB cartridge, and eluted with acetonitrile and 0.067 mol/L phosphoric acid(5∶ 1, V/V). Using acetonitrile and 0.067 mol/L phosphoric acid(pH=2.5) as the mobile phase, these analytes were quantificated by HPLC(fluorimetric detector) at excitation and emission wavelength of 280 nm and 450 nm respectively. The detective limits for four quinolones in soil were from 0.58 to 0.03 g/kg. The recoveries were 60.4% to 99.3% for soil samples. The method was successfully applied to determine the quinolones in soil samples from vegetable fields. Four quinolone compounds were detected to a different extent with total amounts of quinolones ranged from 27.84 to 129.26 μg/kg.
