Gemifloxacine

A novel luminescence-based analytical methodology was established employing a europium(III) complex with 3-allyl-2-hydroxybenzohydrazide (HAZ) as the coordinating ligand for the quantification of gemifloxacin mesylate (GMF) in pharmaceutical preparations and human plasma samples spiked with the compound. The stoichiometry of the europium complex with HAZ was determined via the Job plot and exhibited a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1 : 2. The analytical procedure relies on a rapid and significant enhancement of luminescence by the Eu(AZ)2 complex when it interacts with gemifloxacin mesylate, which allowed for the rapid detection of 96 samples within approximately 2 minutes...

Helicobacter pylori infection is widespread in 50% of the world's population and is associated with gastric ulcers and related disorders that ultimately culminate in gastric cancer. Levofloxacin-based, or clarithromycin-based, triple therapy is frequently used to inhibit the bacterial urease enzyme for the eradication of H. pylori . A comprehensive investigation based on the urease inhibitory profiles of antibiotics and their computational implications is lacking in the scientific literature. The present study was aimed specifically to determine the antiurease activities within the realms of cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones by in vitro methods supported with in silico investigations...

In this study, the synthesized nanocomposite was evaluated novel graphene oxide/pectin/ferrite (GOPF) adsorbent to the adsorption of Rhodamine B (RhB) and Gemifloxacin (GEM) from wastewater. Theoretical studies were carried out using quantum simulation via the Forcite module in Material Studio 2017. The simulation results demonstrated RhB and GEM adsorption over other dyes and drugs. The synthesized nanocomposite was identified by BET, TGA, FT-IR, FE-SEM, XRD, VSM, and EDS. The nanocomposite's ability to effectively take RhB and GEM from an aqueous solution was checked by performing a series of experiments based on the effect of adsorbent dose, initial condensation, contact time, pH, and temperature...

The fluorescence detection of ions and pharmaceutical effluents by using organic chemosensors is a valuable surrogate to the currently existing expensive analytical methods. In this regard, the design of multi-functional chemosensors to recognize desirable guests is of utmost importance.

Psoriasis is a lifelong immune-driven skin condition characterized by excessive epidermal overgrowth and inflammatory cell infiltration. Gemifloxacin is a fourth-generation fluoroquinolone with improved immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties that are believed to possess an attractive role in psoriasis via suppressing the production of cytokines, chemokines, and eosinophil and neutrophil chemotaxis. The aim of this research is to investigate the ameliorative effects of prolonged topical gemifloxacin (GMF) alone and combined with clobetasol propionate (CLO) on an imiquimod (IMQ)-induced mouse model of psoriasis...

Supramolecular gemifloxacin (GF) sensors have been developed. Supramolecular chemistry is primarily concerned with noncovalent intermolecular and intramolecular interactions, which are far weaker than covalent connections, but they can be exploited to develop sensors with remarkable affinity for a target analyte. In order to determine the dose form of the quinolone antibacterial drug gemifloxacin, the current study's goal is to adapt three polyvinylchloride (PVC) membrane sensors into an electrochemical technique...

In the era of acquired microbial resistance (AMR), resulting in the ineffectiveness of antibiotics is of keen interest for researchers in current scenarios. Ten novel metal complexes of gemifloxacin have been synthesized by reacting it with essential and trace elements in a 2:1 ratio predetermined conducto-metrically. As these metals are either present in the body or co-administered as metallic supplements can alter the level of antibiotics. Therefore, Metal complexes of Gemifloxacin, an important member of the fluoroquinolone family, were synthesized...

Laccase was successfully hybridized with polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer-grafted silica-coated hercynite-copper phosphate magnetic hybrid nanoflowers (MHNFs) to increase the catalytic performance of the enzyme and apply in an effective bioremoval of gemifloxacin. For this purpose, the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of hercynite were covered with a silica layer, and the core-shell SiO2 @hercynite was then modified with PAMAM dendrimer to increase the surface area of the carrier for the enzyme attachment. Subsequently, the whole complex was hybridized with laccase and copper phosphate to attain a large surface area (104...

The transcriptional regulator (TcaR) enzyme plays an important role in biofilm formation. Prevention of TcaR-DNA complex formation leads to inhibit the biofilm formation is likely to reveal therapeutic ways for the treatment of bacterial infections. To identify the novel ligands for TcaR and to provide a new idea for drug design, two efficient drug design methods, such as pharmacophore modeling and structure-based drug design, were used for virtual screening of database and lead optimization, respectively. Gemifloxacin (FDA-approved drug) was considered to generate the pharmacophore model for virtual screening of the ZINC database, and five hits, namely ZINC77906236, ZINC09550296, ZINC77906466, ZINC09751390, and ZINC01269201, were identified as novel inhibitors of TcaR with better binding energies...
