Photodegradation of Mefenamic Acid in Aqueous Media: Kinetics, Toxicity and Photolysis Products

Abstract: The present study investigated the photolytic behavior and photodegradation products of mefenamic acid (MEF) under ultraviolet-C irradiation. The results demonstrated that the photodegradation of MEF followed pseudo-first-order kinetics and the direct photolysis quantum yield of mefenamic acid was observed to be 2.63 ± 0.28 × 10⁻³. Photodegradation of MEF included degradation by direct photolysis and by self-sensitization that the contribution rates of self-sensitized photodegradation were 5.70, 11.25 and 18.9… Show more

“…The photolysis rates of CA with the quenchers were 0.0348(±0.0017) (isopropanol), 0.0273(±0.0014) (NaN 3 ) and 0.0097(±0.0005) (sobic acid) min −1 . Based on existing research, we can estimate the contributions of ·OH, 1 O 2 , and the triplet excited state to the overall photodegradation of CA as follows: here, R ·OH , R 1 O 2 , and R CA* are the contribution rates of photodegradation via ·OH, 1 O 2 , and the triplet excited state of CA, respectively; k ·OH , k 1 O 2 and k CA* are the rate constants of photodegradation via ·OH, 1 O 2 , and the triplet excited state of CA, respectively; k isopropanol , k NaN 3 , and k sobic acid are the rate constants for the addition of isopropanol (100 mM), 57 sodium azide (5 mM), 58 and sobic acid (0.2 mM) into reaction solutions; 59 k is the rate constant of the photodegradation of CA alone.…”

“…But the overuse of antibiotics has paved the way to serious risk on public health due to the growth of resistant species of microorganisms. [39][40][41][42][43] Also, the exposure of drugs to the environment and water supply has received significant attention from the scientific community. [44] New detection methods are being discovered faster to withstand the existing scenario.…”

“…Na wstępie należy zaznaczyć, iż prawie we wszystkich przypadkach głównym celem badań była ocena fotorozkładu pod względem chemicznym, część dotycząca analizy toksyczności przed i po naświetlaniu była niejednokrotnie pobieżnie omówionym dodatkiem. W powyższej literaturze przeanalizowano w sumie 56 leków [29,32,44,45,[49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77] i 3 metabolity [65] występujące pojedynczo w roztworze oraz jedną mieszaninę 27 leków [18]. Analizy wykonane były przynajmniej dwa razy dla 19 leków, najczęściej dla diklofenaku [18,64,67,68,73] i sulfametoksazolu [18,49,63,69].…”

“…W przypadku 24 doniesień naukowych do oceny toksyczności i fototoksyczności wybierano pojedyncze organizmy testowe [18,29,44,45,[49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68]. W 23 pracach były to testy ostre [18,29,44,45,[49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66]68], tylko w jednej test chroniczny [67]. Takie wyniki badań z pewnością nie mają przełożenia na ekosystem i powinny być poszerzone o badania na innych organizmach.…”
