M. Ashrafkhorassani et al., SOLUBILITY STUDY OF SULFAMETHAZINE AND SULFADIMETHOXINE IN SUPERCRITICAL CARBON-DIOXIDE, FLUOROFORM, AND SUBCRITICAL FREON 134A, Journal of chemical and engineering data, 42(3), 1997, pp. 636-640
An on-line SFE/HPLC system incorporating a recirculating pump to achie
ve efficient mixing under static extraction conditions was developed t
o measure the solubility of different analytes in supercritical fluids
. To test the system and method, the solubility of anthracene in super
critical CO2 was measured and the results were quantitatively similar
to those reported previously. The solubilities of neat sulfamethazine
(SMZ) and sulfadimethoxine (SDM) were measured in supercritical carbon
dioxide, supercritical fluoroform, and subcritical Freon 134A. Result
s showed that both drugs have significantly higher solubility in subcr
itical Freon 134A than in supercritical fluoroform or CO2.
