The interaction between sulfathiazole and cobalt(II): potentiometric studies

Potentiometric studies of sulfathiazole (HST) in the presence and absence of cobalt(II) were performed. Equilibrium constants for the formation of the detected species, [Co(ST)]+ and [Co(ST)(OH)], are reported. UV-Vis spectrophotometric measurements suggest that the coordination Co(II)-sulfathiazole might be through a N atom, which, in agreement with MO calculations, could be a thiazolic one. In spite of sulfonamides being better ligands at pH >7, [Co(ST)]+ was found at pH » 3.

Organização supramolecular da ftalocianina de cobalto(II) e seu efeito na oxidação do aminoácido cisteína

The interest in the chemistry of cobalt (II) tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine (PcTsCo) comes mainly from its macrocycle-ligand structure combined with their special chemical characteristics, such as high solubility, well-defined redox reactions and remarkable optical absorption in the visible region. In this work, we use layer-by-layer technique in order to assemble CoTsPc and poly(allylaminehydrochloride) (PAH) in hybrid supramolecular system. The electronic spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry techniques were utilized to study PAH/CoTsPc multilayers growth and the cysteine catalytic oxidation. PAH/CoTsPc showed high electrochemical stability and worthwhile to mention is the remarkable influence of supramolecular arrangement on the final redox properties of the system.

A spectrophotometric method was proposed for Ni(II) determination in alloys using a dopa-semiquinone (L-1) to form [Ni(II)(L1-)3]1-, ε = 9.3 x 10³ L mol-1 cm-1.

Hidropsia endolinfática experimental sob ação de inibidor da óxido nítrico sintase tipo II: avaliação com emissões otoacústicas e eletrococleografia

No modelo experimental de hidropsia endolinfática há redução na amplitude das emissões otoacústicas produtos de distorção (EOAPD) e elevação nos limiares eletrofisiológicos na eletrococleografia. Estudos mostraram que há expressão da óxido nítrico sintase tipo II (ONS II) na cóclea com hidropsia, sugerindo a participação do óxido nítrico (ON) na patogênese desta doença. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a ação de um inibidor da ONS II nas EOAPD e eletrococleografia em cobaias com hidropisia endolinfática experimental. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Foram estudadas 16 cobaias nas quais se induziu hidropsia endolinfática experimental por obliteração do ducto e saco endolinfático na orelha direita durante 16 semanas, divididas em dois grupos: oito cobaias recebendo um inibidor da ONS II, a aminoguanidina, por via oral e um grupo de oito cobaias como controle. Comparamos as amplitudes das EOAPD nas médias geométricas de freqüências de 1062, 2187, 4375 e 7000Hz, os limiares eletrofisiológicos nas freqüências de 1000, 2000, 4000 e 6000Hz e a relação entre os potenciais de somação e de ação (PS/PA) entre os grupos. RESULTADOS: Não houve diferença significante nas EOAPD e na relação PS/PA entre os grupos. O grupo que recebeu a aminoguanidina apresentou menor elevação nos limiares eletrofisiológicos nas freqüências de 2000 (p<0,05) e 6000 Hz (p<0,05) na 12ª semana e nas freqüências de 1000 (p<0,05), 2000 (p<0,001), 4000 (p<0,001) e 6000Hz (p<0,001) na 16ª semana. CONCLUSÕES: O inibidor da ONS II reduziu a elevação dos limiares eletrofisiológicos na eletrococleografia na hidropsia endolinfática experimental.
