In Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer solution at pH 4.0, erythrosine (ET) reacts with tetracaine hydrochloride (TA x HCl) to form an ion association complex that quenches the fluorescence of erythrosine and has a compound ratio of 1 : 1. The measurement wavelength of fluorescence quenching was located at lambda(ex)/lambda(em) = 525 nm/556 nm. The linear range for TA x HCl is from 0.28 microg x mL(-1) to 4.8 microg x mL(-1), and its detection limit is 0.083 microg x mL(-1). The influence of coexisting substance was also inspected, and the result shows that this method has a better selectivity. Therefore, a new fluorospectrophotometry, being high sensitive, sample and rapid, was developed to determinate TA x HCl at trace amounts. The method has been applied to the determination of TA x HCl in human serum and urine samples with satisfactory results. In this study, the spectral characteristics and the optimum reaction conditions were discussed with quantum chemistry AM1 method.

Marine natural products (MNPs) have been an important and rich source for antimicrobial drug discovery and an effective alternative to control drug resistant infections. Herein, we report bioassay guided fractionation of marine extracts from sponges , and that led us to identify novel compounds with antimicrobial properties. Tertiary amines or quaternary amine salts: aniline , benzylamine , tertiary amine and , and quaternary amine salt , along with three known compounds () were isolated from a crude extract and MeOH eluent marine extracts.

Diclofenac is a drug commonly used in human and veterinary medicine for the treatment of diseases associated with inflammation and pain. Medicinal products enter waste and surface waters on an everyday basis and contaminate the aquatic environment. Fish are therefore permanently exposed to these chemicals dissolved in their aquatic environment.
