- Description: Spectroscopic changes observed on addition of nitrite to solutions of cobalt(II) tetra-sulfophthalocyanine ([Co(II)TSPc]4-) in the presence of N− 3 or ClO− 4 are reported. There is spectroscopic evidence for the oxidation of [Co(II)TSPc]4- to a [Co(III)TSPc]3- species in the presence of nitrite ions. Equilibrium and kinetic studies for the interaction between [Co(II)TSPc]4- and NO− 2 are reported. The rate was found to be first order in both [Co(II)TSPc]4- and NO− 2. The rate constant for the forward reaction, k f=1.6 × 10−4 dm3mol−1s−1 was determined at 20°C for the interaction between nitrite ions and [Co(II)TSPc]4- in the presence of NO3 − or ClO4 − ions.

- Description: The in vitro release characteristics of amoxycillin from different lipophilic suppository bases were investigated using the USP rotating basket method. Suppositories containing 250 mg amoxycillin were prepared in theobroma oil and in the semisynthetic bases Witepsol W35, Suppocire A32, Novata BD, and Novata 299. Both freshly prepared and 1-month-old suppositories were tested. Analysis of amoxycillin was performed using a validated high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) technique. Release profiles differed significantly between bases, with the greatest amount of amoxycillin being released from both newly made and 1-month-old Novata BD bases (87.57 ± 8.18 and 99.66 ± 6.63%, respectively), and the lowest amount released from the newly manufactured theobroma suppositories (8.82 ± 0.75%) and the 1-month-old Suppocire A32 suppositories (7.78 ± 0.27%).
