    Notes: Abstract A study was undertaken to determine the fraction of ingested aluminium taken up by two male volunteers, following their ingestion of either aluminium citrate or aluminium hydroxide. In addition, the effects of simultaneous citrate ingestion on the gastrointestinal absorption of aluminium from its hydroxide was studied. Volunteers received three oral doses of26Al-labelled aluminium compound in water. The doses were administered directly into the stomach using a paediatric feeding tube. Blood samples were collected from the volunteers at 1, 4 and 24 h after administration, and their daily output of urine and faeces was collected for 6 days. These samples were analysed for their26Al content using either coincidence gamma-counting or accelerator mass spectrometry. The uptake of aluminium was greatest following its administration in the citrate form and was least following intake as the aluminium hydroxide suspension. The co-administration of citrate, with the aluminium hydroxide suspension, was found to enhance the levels of26Al uptake in both volunteers. Using a urinary excretion factor based on the results of previous studies, the fractional aluminium uptake from each of the species was calculated: aluminium citrate, 5.23 × 10−3; aluminium hydroxide, 1.04 × 10−4; aluminium hydroxide with citrate, 1.36 × 10−3.

    Notes: Abstract Two different approaches were used to study the bioavailability of sediment-bound lead. In vitro techniques simulating the potential metal desorption under conditions prevailing in the digestive tract were assayed on a contaminated sediment. An experimental model of a food chain was designed to determine the retention of lead in the soft tissues of oysters according to the environmental source of the metal (water or sediment). Neither enzymatic action nor leaching at low pH (both aspects of digestion) induce the release of important lead amounts from particles. Therefore, after 3 weeks of exposure, the retention of lead from the trophic source is lower (1%) compared with direct contamination (5%). Lysosomes are the major intracellular structures responsible for lead storage in the gills, digestive tract and digestive gland. The abundance of lysosomes and their lead amount vary according to the gross concentrations in the soft tissues. The cytopathological data are in agreement with the results about lead accumulation: in oysters exposed to sediment-bound lead, impairments are not so marked as in individuals contaminated directly from water but the same organelles are concerned. Mitochondrial impairments may be related to the effect of lead on cellular respiration processes and changes involving the granular endoplasmic reticulum may have an effect on the level of protein synthesis. Cellular extrusions carrying away numerous lysosomes loaded with lead could account for the balancing of lead incorporation between 2 and 3 weeks of exposure.

    Notes: Abstract Tetradecenyl succinic acid (TSA) is the major component of a detergent builder (C12-C14 alkenyl succinic acid), which is inherently biodegradable. 14C-TSA was dosed as a component of sewage sludge into a soil with a history of sludge amendment at final added concentrations of 1.5 and 30 mg (kg soil)-1. In addition, it was dosed to the soil in an aqueous solution to a final added concentration of 30 mg (kg soil)-1. Dose and form were found to have a pronouced effect on the mineralization kinetics. When dosed in a realistic form and concentration (i.e. 1.5 mg (kg soil)-1 as a component of sludge), TSA was mineralized at its highest rate and to its greatest extent, and the mineralization half-life was 2.4 days. When dosed at 30 mg (kg soil)-1 as a component of sludge, mineralization began immediately, and the half-life was 23 days. In contrast, when dosed at this concentration in aqueous solution, the onset of mineralization was preceded by a 13 day lag period and the mineralization half-life was 69 days. Primary biodegradation and mineralization rates of TSA were very similar. Approximately, half the radioactivity was evolved as 14CO2, while the remaining radioactivity became non-extractable, having presumably been incorporated into biomass or natural soil organic matter (humics). This study demonstrated that TSA is effectively removed from sludge-amended soils as a result of biodegradation. Furthermore, it showed the effect that dose form and concentration have on the biodegradation kinetics and the importance of dosing a chemical not only at a relevant concentration but also in the environmental form in which it enters the soil environment.

    Notes: Abstract Aerobic biodegradation of benzene, toluene andnaphthalene was studied in pre-equilibrated soil-waterslurry microcosms. The experiments were designed tosimulate biodegradation at waste sites where sorptionreaches equilibrium before biodegradation becomesimportant. Rates of biodegradation were reduced by thepresence of soil. For example, nearly completenaphthalene biodegradation (1.28 mg/L) by indigenoussoil bacteria occurred within 60 hours in aqueoussolution (soil-free) while it took two weeks todegrade the same amount in the presence of 0.47 kgsoil/L of water. The rate of biodegradation wasobserved to decrease with increasing organic compoundhydrophobicity, soil/water ratio, soil particle size,and soil organic carbon content. These resultsclearly indicate that the rate of biodegradation isaffected by both the extent and rate of sorption. Further analysis suggests that mass transfer couldcontrol the performance of in situ bioremediation forhighly hydrophobic organic contaminants which exhibita large extent of sorption and slow rate ofdesorption.

    Notes: Abstract Crude oil is a complex mixture ofseveral different structural classes of compoundsincluding alkanes, aromatics, heterocyclic polarcompounds, and asphaltenes. The rate and extent ofmicrobial degradation of crude oil depends on theinteraction between the physical and biochemicalproperties of the biodegradable compounds and theirinteractions with the non-biodegradable fraction. Inthis study we have systematically altered theconcentration of non-biodegradable material in thecrude oil and analyzed its impact on transport of thebiodegradable components of crude oil to themicroorganisms. We have also developed a mathematicalmodel that explains and accounts for the dependence ofbiodegradation of crude oil through a putativebioavailability parameter. Experimental resultsindicate that as the asphaltene concentration in oilincreases, the maximum oxygen uptake in respirometersdecreases. The mathematically fitted bioavailabilityparameter of degradable components of oil alsodecreases as the asphaltene concentration increases.

    Microbiological aspects of surfactant use for biological soil remediation (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Biodegradation of hydrophobic organic compounds in polluted soil is a process involving interactions among soil particles, pollutants, water, and micro-organisms. Surface-active agents or surfactants are compounds that may affect these interactions, and the use of these compounds may be a means of overcoming the problem of limited bioavailability of hydrophobic organic pollutants in biological soil remediation. The effects of surfactants on the physiology of micro-organisms range from inhibition of growth due to surfactant toxicity to stimulation of growth caused by the use of surfactants as a co-substrate. The most important effect of surfactants on the interactions among soil and pollutant is stimulation of mass transport of the pollutant from the soil to the aqueous phase. This can be caused by three different mechanisms: emulsification of liquid pollutant, micellar solubilisation, and facilitated transport. The importance of these mechanisms with respect to the effect of surfactants on bioavailability is reviewed for hydrophobic organic pollutants present in different physical states. The complexity of the effect of surfactants on pollutant bioavailability is reflected by the results in the literature, which range from stimulation to inhibition of desorption and biodegradation of polluting compounds. No general trends can be found in these results. Therefore, more research is necessary to make the application of surfactants a standard tool in biological soil remediation.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the prodrug ramipril and its active ACE-inhibiting metabolite ramiprilat were investigated in an open, randomised, three-way cross-over study in 12 healthy male volunteers. Subjects received 2.5 mg ramipril orally, 2.5 mg ramipril intravenously and 2.5 mg ramiprilat intravenously. The absolute bioavailability as judged by ramipril plasma AUC was 15 %, by ramiprilat plasma AUC, 44 %. Ramiprilat formation from intravenous ramipril was 53 % and from oral ramipril 28 %. Urinary recovery of oral ramipril was 23 %, i. v. ramipril 49 %, and i. v. ramiprilat 68 % of the given dose. Maximum ACE inhibition was highest (100 %) after i. v. ramiprilat; it was 99 % after i. v. ramipril and 84 % following oral ramipril. ACE inhibition over 24 h was highest after i. v. ramipril, 2 % less with i. v. ramiprilat and 34 % less with oral ramipril. Ramiprilat renal clearance was concentration dependent. The biological availability of ramipril can best be judged by ramiprilat AUC, urinary recovery of ramipril and metabolites, or ACE inhibition over 24 h. It is concluded that the bioavailability of oral ramipril seems to be in the range of 44–66 %.

    Notes: Abstract The usual dosage regimen of diltiazem (Tildiem) is 60 mg 3–4 times a day. A sustained-release formulation has been developed (Mono-Tildiem LP 300 mg) in order to allow a single daily administration. Two repeated dosing studies were performed in healthy volunteers. The absolute bioavailability of sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg was investigated using concomitant i.v. administration of 13C-labelled drug: absolute bioavailability of the “once a day” formulation was 35%. The second study compared sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg with the standard formulation of diltiazem. The results showed that the diltiazem plasma concentrations obtained after the LP formulation remained stable between 2 and 14 h after administration and were compatible with a once a day administration. Relative bioavailability of sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg was 79.3% compared with diltiazem. Therefore, a unitary dose of sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg was chosen as the dose equivalent to the daily dose administered with the standard diltiazem formulation.

    Notes: Abstract Two bioavailability studies of S(+)-ibuprofen (dexibuprofen) were conducted in healthy volunteers to define the relationship between the bioavailability of the drug after administration of dexibuprofen alone or as part of ibuprofen racemate. Enantioselective plasma drug analysis was used throughout. In the first study, the bioavailability of dexibuprofen from a 400 mg tablet formulation was compared with that from 400 mg in aqueous solution. The tablet formulation did not influence the bioavailability of the drug and dexibuprofen was well absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract. The second study was divided into three identical parts. Bioavailability of dexibuprofen 200, 400 and 600 mg was compared with its bioavailability from ibuprofen racemate 400, 800 and 1200 mg. The second study showed that the mean relative bioavailability of dexibuprofen to ibuprofen racemate was 0.66, thus enabling the estimation of clinically useful dexibuprofen doses from the usual doses of the racemate. The 95% confidence interval limits did not include 0.5, leading to the conclusion that administering half of the racemate dose would not provide patients with an adequate amount of therapeutically active drug.

    Notes: Abstract Objective: To investigate the temperature dependency of the dose released and the plasma levels of nicotine from a vapour inhaler. Methods: In an open, randomised, three-way cross-over pharmacokinetic study 18 healthy subjects inhaled nicotine for 20 min (80 inhalations) every hour for 10 h (11 administrations) at three different environmental temperatures: 20°, 30° and 40 °C. In the in vitroexperiment, 5, 10, 15 and 20 l air were forced through the inhaler. With a 15 l air volume, the average amount of nicotine released was 1.44, 3.49, 4.80 and 6.99 mg at 10 °C, 22 °C, 29 °C and 40 °C, respectively. The maximum dose released at the highest temperature (40 °C) and the largest air volume investigated (20 l) was approximately 7.5 mg. Results: In vivo peak plasma levels obtained at 30° and 40 °C were 29.7 and 34.0 ng · ml−1, compared with 22.5 ng · ml−1 at ambient room temperature (20 °C). At 20 °C, the area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC) of the last dosing interval was 20.5 ng · ml−1 · h. At 30 °C and 40 °C, the AUCs were 26.5 and 30.3 ng · ml−1 · h, respectively. The results thus showed a mean increase of the in vivo AUC by 29% at 30 °C and by 48% at 40 °C compared with the AUC at 20 °C. These increases should be compared to the in vitro results, showing a mean increase of 59% and 122%, respectively, at 30° and 40 °C. The in vitro results also showed that a relatively larger fraction of the dose was released into the first 5 l of air at the higher temperatures, at 40 °C, about 50% of the total amount released into 20 l. Conclusion: It was concluded that the in vitro/in vivo discrepancy was most probably due to increased aversive effects at elevated temperatures, causing the subjects to inhale smaller puff volumes. Further, the inhaler would not produce nicotine plasma levels exceeding those achieved following cigarette smoking, even in a hot climate.
