Experimental determination of the recombination correction factor kS for SNC 125c,SNC 350p and SNC 600c ionization chambers in pulsed photon beams

Accurate ionization chamber measurements of the absorbed dose to water require the correction of incomplete collection of charges created within the chamber volume. According to current dosimetry protocols such as the TRS-398 or the DIN 6800-2, incomplete charge collection is accounted for by the correction factor k_s, which can be determined numerically or experimentally. The method proposed by Burns & McEwen (Phys. Med. Biol., 1998) was used in this study to determine the coefficients γ and δ used for the calculation of the correction factor k_s of three ionization chambers, the SNC 125c, the SNC 600c and the SNC 350p (all Sun Nuclear Corp., Melbourne, Florida) for an absorbed dose to water range of 0.2 mGy to 1.6 mGy per pulse in pulsed photon beams. The shift of the effective point of measurement from the reference point Δz and the correction factor k_r were determined for the SNC 350p according to the draft DIN 6800-2:2019-07.     

Les bouchées enrichies adaptées,un outil à la portée des établissements sanitaires et médico-sociaux ainsi que des aidants familiaux : retour d’expérience

IntroductionFor many years, nutrition of the elderly is of a special attention. The food policies wants to value the regional initiatives that can be slowed down, and new techniques of adapted food are in development. Following a tracking of malnutrition in an establishment for dependent elderly, a program of nutritional improvement was set up. It was decided to transform the dishes of the daily menu into small enriched, mixed, prehensile mouthfuls, with for objective to use the remaining capacities of the patients, to adapt the care to their rhythm, to answer their expectations and their nutritional needs.MethodThe agents of texture of the mouthfuls were adapted. Their enrichment and their presentation were specified, as well as the modalities of distribution, in order to allow an easy access as well by the patients, the nursing and the families. Cooled cupboards were used.ResultsThe residents found again the pleasure to eat by themselves, their self-respect and consequently covered better their needs. A decrease of the malnutrition prevalence was observed. Times of exchange with other establishments and a formation were set up to share this tool. Levers were identified to develop this concept under good conditions.ConclusionThe adapted enriched mouthfuls tool seems to be useful. Its application is inseparable of a voluntary multidisciplinary approach, anchored in the knowledge of the accompanied person and in the analysis of her global situation. This tool is adaptable not only in any structure welcoming dependent, old people or not, but also at home.

Carboxylesterase catalyzed 18O-labeling of carboxylic acid and its potential application in LC-MS/MS based quantification of drug metabolites

LC-MS quantification of drug metabolites is sometimes impeded by the availability of internal standards that often requires customized synthesis and/or extensive purification. Although isotopically labeled internal standards are considered ideal for LC-MS/MS based quantification, de novo synthesis using costly isotope-enriched starting materials makes it impractical for early stage of drug discovery. Therefore, quick access to these isotope-enriched compounds without chemical derivatization and purification will greatly facilitate LC-MS/MS based quantification. Herein, we report a novel ¹⁸O-labeling technique using metabolizing enzyme carboxylesterase (CES) and its potential application in metabolites quantification study. Substrates of CES typically undergo a two-step oxygen exchange with H₂¹⁸O in the presence of the enzyme, generating singly- and doubly-¹⁸O-labeled carboxylic acids; however, unexpected hydrolytic behavior was observed for three of the test compounds – indomethacin, piperacillin and clopidogrel. These unusual observations led to the discovery of several novel hydrolytic mechanisms. Finally, when used as internal standard for LC-MS/MS based quantification, these in situ labeled compounds generated accurate quantitation comparable to the conventional standard curve method. The preliminary results suggest that this method has potential to eliminate laborious chemical synthesis of isotope-labeled internal standards for carboxylic acid-containing compounds, and can be developed to facilitate quantitative analysis in early-stage drug discovery.

Platinum levels in various tissues of a patient who died 181 days after cisplatin overdosing determined by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Platinum (Pt) levels were determined in various tissues and body fluids obtained from a patient who died 181 days after cisplatin overdosing. The symptoms of cisplatin overdose, however, might have almost disappeared by day 40, and the patient’s death was ascribed to the recurrence of malignant lymphoma. Determination of Pt derived from cisplatin was performed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) using silver (Ag) as internal standard. Pt and Ag complexed with diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) in wetashed blood, and tissue solutions were extracted into isoamyl alcohol, and then acidified with oxalic acid. By injecting an aliquot of the isoamyl alcohol layer into a mass spectrometer in the direct flow injection mode, the quantitation was performed using the signals of Pt(DDC)₃ ⁺ and Ag(DDC)₂ ⁺ at m/z 639 and 403, respectively. The Pt levels ranged from 25ng/ml in blood to 2050ng/g wet weight in the liver of the patient, indicating that Pt remained at high levels in tissues, even after a period as long as 181 days after cisplatin overdosing.
