QCT, LUT, and 3-O-MQ content into crude extract, nanoemulsions, and skin/mucosa after permeation studies were determined using a liquid chromatography equipment Shimadzu LC-10A, equipped with LC-10AD pump, CBM-10A system controller, SIL-10A autosampler, SPD-20AV UV/vis detector (set at 362 nm), and LC Solution software. The chromatographic system was composed by a Synergi Polar-RP 150 × 4.6 mm i.d., 4 μm (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA) column protected by precolumn packed with silica C18 Phenomenex (150 μm, 140 Å), temperature system of 30 ± 1°C, isocratic flux of 0.8 mL/min, and 20 μL as injection volume. The mobile phase consisted of methanol : 0.16 M phosphoric acid : acetonitrile (46 : 44 : 10, v/v/v) and the samples were diluted in methanol : phosphoric acid 16 mM (50 : 50, v/v) before analyses. The analytical method was previously validated for the determination of QCT, LUT, and 3-O-MQ in ethanolic extract and nanoemulsion [8 (link)], demonstrating to be specific, linear (0.25 to 10 µg/mL), precise, and accurate. In this paper, the revalidation of the analytical method was performed in terms of specificity and recovery of QCT, LUT, and 3-O-MQ from porcine ear skin and porcine esophageal mucosa. The limits considered acceptable for the evaluated parameters are in accordance with the “The Guidance for Industry: Bioanalytical Method Validation” (FDA).

Phenolic compounds were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with two UV/VIS detectors (SPD-10A UV/VIS Detector; Shimadzu SPD-20AV UV-Vis Detector, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan), a column oven (CTO 10AVP Column Oven, Shimadzu) and a reverse-phase C18 column (Prevail 5 µm organic acid, 4.6 mm × 250 mm, Hichrom, Leicestershire, UK). The mobile phase solution consisted of 2.5 mM KH2PO4 and acetonitrile (60:40 v/v). The flow rate applied was 1.0 mL/min. Then, 20 μL of the sample was injected at 40 °C with a run time of 20 min. Two UV/VIS detectors were used with detection wavelengths set to either 305 nm or 280 nm. Phenols in each sample were analyzed in triplicate.
Phenols of each compound were identified by comparing the retention time of the external standard with that of the internal standard. Phenolic standard solutions were prepared by dissolving in methanol or acetonitrile. A calibration curve was created by analyzing the standard solutions of each compound diluted to several concentrations. Quantification was performed using the peak area and the calibration curve of each compound.

The SdFFF separation device used in this study derived from previously described apparatuses [47 (link)] as schematized in Figure 3A. The apparatus was composed of two 880 x 47 x 2 mm polystyrene plates, separated by a Mylar® spacer in which the channel was carved. Channel dimensions were 788 × 12 × 0.175 mm with two 50 mm V-shaped ends. The measured total void volume (channel volume + connecting tubing + injection and detection device) was calculated after injection and retention time determination of a non-retained compound (0.10 g/L benzoic acid (Merck Millipore, Lyon, France) solution, UV detection at 254 nm). Sedimentation fields were calculated as previously described [48 (link)] and were expressed in gravity units (1 g = 980 cm/s2). Elution signals were recorded at 254 nm with a SPD-20AV UV/VIS Detector (Shimadzu, Champ sur Marne, France) and a NI9211 (10 mV input) acquisition device (National Instruments France, Nanterre, France) operated at 3 Hz and connected to a PC computer by the means of a laboratory-developed Visual Basic software (VB pro, Ver 6.0, Microsoft Corp.).

Total phenolic content (TPh) in the extracts was established using the Folin–Ciocalteau spectrophotometric method adapted to microscale [11 (link)]. The sample (15 μL) was mixed with distilled water (170 μL), 2 N Folin–Ciocalteu’s reagent (12 μL) and 20% Na2CO3 (30 μL) in a plate well.

The AF4 system used was an AF2000 MultiFlow FFF (Postnova Analytics GmbH, Landsberg am Lech, Germany) coupled online to an SPD-20AV UV–Vis detector (Shimadzu Corporation, Japan) and a Zetasizer Nano ZS DLS detector (Malvern, UK). Flows were provided by two separate PN1130 isocratic pumps (Postnova Analytics GmbH) equipped with a PN7520 degasser, and the cross-flow was obtained by a separate piston pump, which is constantly adjustable. The DLS detector can work in batch mode as well. Table S6 and S7 of the SI summarize the optimal conditions for batch DLS measurements and the optimal instrumental variables and conditions of the AF4 system for the study of CB-NP dispersions, respectively.
The morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with a Hitachi S-4800 instrument at an accelerating voltage of 10.0 keV over metallized CB solid samples with a mixture of gold and palladium for 30 s. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) samples were prepared by delivering 10 μL of the CB dispersion onto a carbon-coated copper grid (300 mesh) and were dried overnight at room temperature. These samples were analysed using a JEM-1010 (JEOL Ltd.) operated at 100 kV.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
