Chemical compound and disease context of Sorbitan

 

Biological context of Sorbitan

  • The effects of an ethoxylated sorbitan fatty ester nonionic surfactant (Tween 80) on the bioavailability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were examined by using soil-free and dense-slurry (67% solids content, by wt) systems containing a creosote-contaminated field soil [12].
  • Effect of oxyethylene moiety in polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters on the pharmacokinetics of menatetrenone incorporated in O/W lipid emulsions prepared with polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters and soybean oil in rats [13].
 

Anatomical context of Sorbitan

  • In an attempt to explain the rather short half-life of molecules at the injection site after their intra-muscular administration in a sorbitan monostearate organogel, in vitro studies were carried out to study the effects of an aqueous medium (simulating interstitial fluid at injection site) on the physical form of the organogel [14].
  • Cationic niosomes of sorbitan monoesters were prepared using film hydration method and tested for their effect on delivery of antisense oligonucleotides (OND) in a COS-7 cell line [15].
  • The ester linkage of PEG Sorbitan fatty acid esters was hydrolyzed after oral administration, and the PEG Sorbitan moiety was poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract [16].
 

Associations of Sorbitan with other chemical compounds

  • Sorbitan trioleate (Span 85) modified by Cibacron Blue F-3GA (CB) was prepared and used as an affinity surfactant to formulate a reversed micellar system for Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) solubilization [17].
  • NSVs were prepared from polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate (Tween20) and cholesterol [18].
  • In niosomes containing PGDS, myristyl alcohol (MA), and polysorbate, the fatty acid chain length of polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester-type surfactants has influenced the release rate and encapsulation efficiency [19].
  • The effects of alkyl chain length of fatty alcohols (C(12), C(14), C(16), C(18), and C(16+18)), of acyl chain length of polyoxyethylene sorbitan monoester surfactants, and of the molar ratio of lipid mixture on the release rate of ketorolac from niosomes were assessed by employing modified dissolution-dialysis method [19].
  • In this study, we investigated the optimum conditions under which the enzymatic synthesis of sorbitan methacrylate can be affected using Novozym 435 in t-butanol from sorbitan and several acyl donors (ethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, and vinyl methacrylate) [6].
 

Gene context of Sorbitan

  • The displacement of a globular protein (bovine serum albumin, BSA) from the surface of oil droplets in concentrated oil-in-water emulsions by a nonionic surfactant (polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolauarate, Tween 20) was studied using front-face fluorescence spectroscopy (FFFS) [20].
