With its good properties of biocompatibility and bioactivity hydroxyapatite (HA) is highly used as bone substitutes and as coatings on metallic prostheses. In order to improve the bioactive properties of HA, we have elaborated Zn2+ doped hydroxyapatite. Zn2+ ions substitute for Ca2+ cations in the HA structure and four Zn concentrations (Zn/Zn+Ca) were prepared at 0.5, 1, 2 and 5 at.%. To study physico-chemical reactions at the materials periphery, we immersed the bioceramics into biological fluids for intervals from 1 day to 20 days. The surface changes were studied at the nanometer scale by scanning transmission electron microscopy associated with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. After 20 days of immersion, we observed the formation of a calcium-phosphate layer at the periphery of the HA doped with 5% zinc. This layer contains magnesium and its thickness was around 200 nm. Formation of this Ca-P-Mg layer represents the bioactive properties of 5% Zn-substituted hydroxyapatite. This biologically active layer improves the properties of HA and will permit a chemical bond between the ceramic and bone.
This review provides an overview of the on-line coupling of solid-phase extraction or liquid chromatography with gas chromatography for the analysis of biological samples. Principles relevant to techniques are briefly presented and selected applications are described. Benefits of the coupled systems are discussed.
The demand for automation of liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) in drug analysis combined with the demand for reduced sample preparation time has led to the recent development of liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) based on disposable hollow fibres. In LPME, target drugs are extracted from aqueous biological samples, through a thin layer of organic solvent immobilised within the pores of the wall of a porous hollow fibre, and into an microl volume of acceptor solution inside the lumen of the hollow fibre. After extraction, the acceptor solution is subjected directly to a final analysis either by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), capillary electrophoresis (CE), mass spectrometry (MS), or capillary gas chromatography (GC) without any further treatments. Hollow fibre-based LPME may provide high enrichment of drugs and excellent sample clean-up, and probably has a broad application potential within the area of drug analysis. This review focuses on the principle of LPME, and recent applications of three-phase, two-phase, and carrier mediated LPME of drugs from plasma, whole blood, urine, and breast milk.
