This question appeared on the 2009 paper. The answer below was written by an English student in that exam. Marks were high.Using an industry of your choice to illustrate, critically assess alternative measures of industry concentration.Industry concentration refers to the extent to which the output for a given single industry is located in a small number of firms (Clark 1985). Measures of concentration relate to the number of firms in an industry and the distribution of market shares between them.In this essay I will detail alternative absolute measures of concentration and inequality measures of industry concentration and assess their usefulness using Hannah and Ka ys’ criteria (1977). Firstly I will discuss the criteria which has been advanced by Hannah and Kay (1977) as a basis for discussing the usefulness of concentration measures. Secondly I will discuss absolute measures of concentration including concentration ratios and Herfindahl-Hirschman (HH) index. Absolute measures take into account the absolute number of firms and their relative distribution among the industry. Thirdly I will discuss inequality measures such as the Gini coefficient and the coefficient of variation ratio. These measures do not take account of the absolute number of firms in the industry and therefore fail to meet Hannah and Ka y’s merger condition and entry condition s. I will use the chocolate industry as an illustration of these measures.As Clark (1985) argued, concentration measures should be easy to calculate, not dependant on industry size, and should perhaps lie between 0 and 1 as to facilitate comparison between individual industries. Hannah and Kay’s properties of industry concentration (1977) provide a more useful platform for discussion regarding the usefulness of concentration measures. Hannah and Kay firstly highlighted the concentration curves as a useful tool to assess concentration. The concentration curve plots the cumulative market shares of firms in the industry against number of firms:The concentration curve pictured above shows the cumulative number of market shares, cumulated from the largest firm. The higher the curve, the higher is industry concentration. As can be seen, the chocolate industry is dominated by three large firms (Cadbury, Nestle, Mars) and is a highly concentrated industry. Concentration curves can be plotted over time to see how concentration is changing. Over the last six years, concentration has remained largely similar in this industry.Indices are often used as summary measures of concentration curves and Hannah andKay developed four properties of an ideal index:1. Concentration curve ranking criterion: for one industry to be considered more concentrated than another, its concentration curve must be above the other’s everyw here on the graph. If they cross, then the situation is ambiguous and no judgement can be made.2. Sales Transfer Principle: the transfer of sales from a small firm to a large firm must increase concentration.3. Entry Condition: the entry of a small firm into an industry must decrease concentration.4. Merger Condition: if two firms merge then concentration must be seen to have increased.As Clark (1985) noted, although some academics may prefer to adopt different criteria, the Hannah-Kay properties form a solid basis for discussing the validity of concentration measurements.Perhaps the simplest measure of industry concentration as noted by Clark (1985) wouldbe the inverse of the number of firms in the industry; that is C=1/m where m is the number of firms in the industry. As the number of firms decrease, concentration increases.However this measure does not take account of the relative distributions of market shares,and therefore provides a misleading indication of concentration. For instance, in relation to the UK chocolate industry, there is a wide number of own label brands that make up around 7% of the market and using this inverse measure would give too much weight to these small brands and not enough to the concentration of output in the three largest firms. This measure therefore does not meet Hannah-Kay sales transfer criterion, and is therefore limited in validity.The most popular absolute measure of concentration is the concentration ratio (CR). This essentially is the sum of market shar es of the largest ‘n’ firms. That is :∑==n1i i n S CRwhere S i = the share of the i th firm ie Qq S i i =and q i is the output of the i th firm, divided by the output of the entire industry, Q. This ratio is easy to calculate and is intuitively easy to grasp. However the selection of ‘n’ is arbitrary. This ratio therefore only measures one point of the concentration curve. It may therefore not meet Hannah-Kay criteria of the effect of mergers and sale transfers if the top ‘n’ firms ar e not included.The concentration ratios for the chocolate industries top 5 firms areCR 1 = 35.5%CR 2 = 65.5%CR 3 = 80%CR 4 = 84.4%CR 5 = 85%For the chocolate industry therefore CR 3 may be the most useful as it indicates the high level of concentration in the top three firms. As has been highlighted, this measure may therefore only be valid in certain instances, as it may obscure some effects that have been highlighted by Hannah and Kay as necessarily effecting concentration.Another measure of concentration is the Herfindahl-Hirschman (HH) index. This measure is the sum of the squared market shares of the industry:()∑==m1i 2i S HHwhere m is the total number of firms in the industry. This measure therefore gives greater weight to the larger firms and takes into account the relative sizes and number of market shares and firms in the industry. This measure therefore satisfies all of Hannah-Kay properties.There is consensus that a HH-index between 0 and 0.1 represents a low concentration, 0.1<HH< 0.18 represents a moderate concentration, and HH>0.18 represents a highly concentrated industry. The HH-index for the chocolate industry is 0.241. This correctly highlights the fact that the industry is highly concentrated, with much market share belonging to the three largest firms. The H-index seems to be a useful measure of concentration that highlights the relative inequality of shares.Hannah and Kay extended the HH index and added their own measure;()∑=α=m1i i S HK where α>0. The authors essentially highlighted the option of increasing the weight given to larger firms if necessary. This may be applicable in highly concentrated industries. This satisfies all of the Hannah-Kay properties also.Measures such as the Gini coefficient and coefficient of variation are also used as measures of industry concentration. A Lorenz curve plotting the cumulative market shares against the smallest to largest firms as a percentage, is a useful indicator of inequality:The straighter the curve, the more equally distributed are the market shares of the firms in the industry. A Gini coefficient may be used as an indicator of inequality. This essentially calculates the area under the curve, as marked by the inequality of market shares, to the total was under the curve. That is ODAArea OKA Area G =. However as this does not take into account the absolute number of firms in the industry, this measure may not meet Hannah and Kay ’s merger and firm entry conditions. As a result, such a measure may be of limited value.Another inequality measure is the coefficient of variation. This calculates the mean distance of firm shares to the main firm shares relative to the mean firm size. Mathematically , the coefficient of variation is:qCOV σ=where t he standard deviation σ measures the dispersion around the mean: ()m q q m 1i 2i ∑=-=σ and the mean firm size (measured by output) = sum of firm sizes ÷ the total number of firms in the industry (m):m q q m 1i i∑==A high coefficient of variation indicates high variation in firm size, which indicates low concentration and vice versa. However, again this does not take into account the absolute number or firms in an industry.As highlighted, absolute measures of industry concentration take into account number of firms and inequality of market shares, but inequality measures do not take into account number of firms. As a result, absolute measures such as HH-index which meet Hannah and Kay’s conce ntration measurement criteria may be more useful concentration indicators. One must take into account the industry’s structure when selecting each measure. Highly concentrated industries such as the chocolate industry may not be reflected accurately in some measures such as the inverse measure of concentration.。
Concentration(See also procrastination and workblock and coping with exams leaflets.)We all have the ability to concentrate someof the time. At other times our thoughts are scattered and our minds race from one thingto another. This is often when we feel bored, anxious or when we daydream. To deal with these times, we need to learn and to practice concentration skills. This may take some time and our level of success is likely to depend on our enthusiasm for the task, our skill at doing it, our emotional and physical state and our environment. In learning concentration skills, we aim to extend our concentration span – the time we are able to focus on a specific task before our thoughts wander. We will have a different span for different tasks, so whilst most people find their average level is close to an hour, some will find that with some tasks it will just be a few minutes and others will find that it could be two or three hours. ChecklistTo improve your concentration span, you may want to consider the following:•I f you are stuck with a particular task, checkif the problem is one of poor concentration rather than lack of the necessary knowledge or understanding.•E nsure that your environment aids concentration - reduce distractions and don’t be so comfortable that you nod off.•G et to know the times of day when you areat your most mentally and physically fresh. Do tasks that need most concentration at these times.•I n between periods of concentration, do things to change your physical and mental activity - move around to boost your circulation if you have been sitting, give your brain a new focus. •G ive yourself incentives and rewards appropriate to the level of concentration you have had to maintain.•B e active in your mental activity. Formulate questions to help you focus when reading reference material or listening to a lecture and then write brief notes.•E xperiment and see whether working with another person helps you keep focused on the task.•A void excessive use of caffeine, it may increase your alertness in the short term but possible side-effects include sleeplesness and anxiety./wellbeing 2ConcentrationThree Basic StrategiesThe following three strategies are basic to concentration:1. Stop!When you notice your thoughts wandering,say to yourself STOP and then gently bring your attention back to where you want it to be. Each time it wanders bring it back. To begin with, this could be several times a minute, but each time, say STOP and then re-focus. Don’t waste energy trying to keep thoughts out of your mind. Just put the effort into STOP and re-focus. Over time, you will most likely find that the period of time between your straying thoughts starts to expand.2. AttendThis is about maintaining concentration and not giving in to distractions. It could be describedas a sort of tunnel vision or as being focused. The idea is to keep your concentration on what is physically in front of you. For example, in a lecture or presentation, if others move or cough, don’t look at them. Actively exclude them from the link or tunnel formed between you andthe lecturer. If you are distracted, use the STOP technique to regain concentration. 3. Create worry timeSet aside one or more specific periods in the day when you allow yourself to worry. It can help to set them just before something that you havea specific time to do – tuning into a favouriteTV programme or having a meal. Whenever an anxiety or distracting thought enters your mind during the day, banish it until your next worry time, and re-focus on what you are supposedto be doing. Some people find it helpful to write down the banished thought first. You may notice, particularly if you keep a list, that certain things keep reappearing.If your concerned about these you might want to explore speaking to a counsellor./wellbeing3/wellbeing4 ConcentrationSpecific Problems1. Day-dreamingUse the STOP technique and Attending tocounteract it. You may choose to daydream after a period of concentration as a reward.2. Anxiety or Negative thinkingLoss of concentration can lead to negative thoughts about yourself. Deal with them as with other distractions, and banish them into your Worry Time, when you can check out their reality. See STRESS AND ANXIETY leaflet for Challenging Negative Thoughts.3. Concentrating on a topic which bores you. Actively search in the material for aspects of the subject that can be turned into useful and possibly even interesting information. You may want to focus on finding say five central themes or to use mind-maps or spider diagrams, to write test questions to summarise your learning after each study session.Example: mind mapFocus on the personal rewards of completing the topic satisfactorily, even if it’s just to be rid of it. And build in treats to reward yourself as you progress through the task. If all else fails, see it as a personal challenge.4. Feeling saturated after concentrating well Take a short break and then recharge your mental batteries by reviewing what you have done so far, considering whether it might help to switch to a new topic now. If you feel too tired to restart after a short break, review what you have done and define where you need to pick it up again. You may want to make a note of this. Then before you stop, decide when you will restart the task.Centre for Wellbeing9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday Telephone: 01483 689498 (extension 9498)E-mail:****************************.ukenvironment。
a rXiv:081.436v1[mat h.PR]25J an28On the infimum convolution inequality ∗†‡ta l a and J.O.Wojtaszczyk Abstract In the paper we study the infimum convolution inequalites.Such an inequality was first introduced by B.Maurey to give the optimal concen-tration of measure behaviour for the product exponential measure.We show how IC inequalities are tied to concentration and study the optimal cost functions for an arbitrary probability measure µ.In particular,we show the optimal IC inequality for product log–concave measures and for uniform measures on the ℓn p balls.Such an optimal inequality implies,for a given measure,in particular the Central Limit Theorem of Klartag and the tail estimates of Paouris.1Introduction and Notation In the seminal paper [16],B.Maurey introduced the so called property (τ)for a probability measure µwith a cost function ϕ(see Definition 2.1below)and established a very elegant and simple proof of Talagrand’s two level concentra-tion for the product exponential distribution νn using (τ)for this distribution and an appropriate cost function w .It is natural to ask what other pairs (µ,ϕ)have property (τ)?As any µsatisfies (τ)with ϕ≡0,one will rather ask how big a cost function can one take.In this paper we study the probability measures µthat have property (τ)with respect to the largest (up to a multiplicative factor)possible convex cost function Λ⋆µ.This bound comes from checking property (τ)for linear functions.We say a measure satisfies the infimum convolution inequality (IC for short)if the pair (µ,Λ⋆µ)satisfies τ.It turns out that such an optimal infimum convolution inequality has very strong consequences.It gives the best possible concentration behaviour,gov-erned by the so–called L p -centroid bodies (Corollary 3.10).This,in turn,implies in particular a weak–strong moment comparison (Proposition 3.12),the Central Limit Theorem of Klartag [12]and the tail estimates estimates of Paouris [18](Proposition 3.15).We believe that IC holds for any log–concave probability measure,which is the main motivation for this paper.Maurey’s inequality for the exponential measure is of this optimal type.We transport this to any log–concave measure on the real line,and as the inequal-ity tensorizes,any product log–concave measure satisfies IC(Corollary2.19). However,the main challenge is to provide non–product examples of measures satisfying IC.We show how such an optimal result can be obtained from con-centration inequalites,and follow on to prove IC for the uniform measure on anyℓn p ball for p≥1(Theorem5.30).With the techniques developed we also prove a few other results.We give a proof of the log–Sobolev inequality forℓn p balls,where p≥2(Theorem5.31) and provide a new concentration inequality for the exponential measure for sets lying far away from the origin(Theorem4.6).Organization of the paper.This section,apart from the above intro-duction,defines the notation used throughout the paper.The second section is devoted to studying the general properties of the inequality IC.In subsection 2.1we recall the definition of property(τ)and its ties to concentration from [16].In subsection2.2we study the opposite implication—what additional as-sumptions one needs to infer(τ)from concentration inequalities.In subsection 2.3we show thatΛ⋆µis indeed the largest possible cost function and define the inequality IC.In subsection2.4we show that product log–concave measures satisfy IC.In the third section we give more attention to the concentration inequalities tied to IC.In subsection3.1we show the connection to Z p bodies.In subsection 3.2we continue in this vein with the additional assumption our measure isα–regular.In subsection3.3we show how IC implies a comparison of weak and strong moments and the results of[12]and[18].In the fourth section we give a modification of the two–level concentration for the exponential measure,in which for sets lying far away from the origin only an enlargement by tB n1is used.This will be used in thefifth section,which focuses on the uniform measure on the B n p ball.In subsection5.1we define and study two rather standard transports of measure used further on.In subsection 5.2we use these transports along with the concentration from section4and a Cheeger inequality from[19]to give a proof of IC for p≤2.In section5.3we show a proof of IC for p≥2and a proof of the log–Sobolev inequality for p≥2.We conclude with a few possible extensions of the results of the paper in the sixth section.Notation.By ·,· we denote the standard scalar product on R n.For x∈R n we put x p=( n i=1|x i|p)1/p for1≤p<∞and x ∞=max i|x i|,we also use|x|for x 2.We set B n p for a unit ball in l n p,i.e..B n p={x∈R n: x p≤1}.Byνwe denote the symmetric exponential distribution on R,i.e.the prob-ability measure with the density1the uniform distribution on B n p.The letters c,C denote absolute numerical constants,which may change fromline to line.By c(p),C(p)we mean constants dependent on p(or,formally,a family of absolute constants indexed by p),these also may change from line to line.Other letters,in particular greek letters,denote constantsfixed for agiven proof or section.For any sets of positive real numbers a i and b i,i∈I, by a i∼b i we mean there exist absolute numerical constants c,C>0such that ca i<b i<Ca i for any i∈I.Similarly for collections of sets A i and B i by A i∼B i we mean cA i⊂B i⊂CA i for any i∈I,where again c,C>0are absolute numerical constants.By∼p we mean the constants above can dependon p.2Infimum convolution inequality2.1Property(τ)Definition2.1.Letµbe a probability measure on R n andϕ:R n→[0,∞]be a measurable function.We say that the pair(µ,ϕ)has property(τ)if for any bounded measurable function f:R n→R,R n e f2ϕdµ R n e−f dµ≤1,(1) where for two functions f and g on R n,f2g(x):=inf{f(x−y)+g(y):y∈R n}denotes the infimum convolution of f and g.The following two easy observations are almost immediate(c.f.[16]): Proposition2.2(Tensorization).If pairs(µi,ϕi),i=1,...,k have property (τ)andϕ(x1,...,x k)=ϕ1(x1)+...+ϕk(x k),then the couple(⊗k i=1µi,ϕ)also has property(τ).Proposition2.3(Transport of measure).Suppose that(µ,ϕ)has property(τ) and T:R n→R m is such thatψ(T x−T y)≤ϕ(x−y)for all x,y∈R n.Then the pair(µ◦T−1,ψ)has property(τ).Maurey noticed that property(τ)impliesµ(A+Bϕ(t))≥1−µ(A)−1e−t, whereBϕ(t):={x∈R n:ϕ(x)≤t}.We will need a slight modification of this estimate.3Proposition2.4.Property(τ)for(ϕ,µ)implies for any Borel set A and t≥0,µ(A+Bϕ(t))≥e tµ(A)2(e t/2+e−t/2)<e t/2,hence f t(p)>min(e t/2p,1/2)and(3)follows.Moreover for p≥1/21−f t(p)=1−p(e t+1)/2<e−t/2(1−p)and we get(4).Let F(x)=ν(−∞,x]and g t(p)=F(F−1(p)+t).Previous calculations show that for t,p>0,f t(p)≥g t/2(p)if F−1(p)+t/2≤0or F−1(p)≥0.Since g t+s=g t◦g s and f t+s=f t◦f s,we get that f t(p)≥g t/2(p)for all t,p>0, hence(2)implies(5).The main theorem of[16]states thatνsatisfies(τ)with a sufficiently chosen cost function.Theorem2.5.Let w(x)=19(|x|−2)otherwise.Then the pair(νn, n i=1w(x i))has property(τ).4Theorem2.5together with Proposition2.4immediately gives the following two-level concentration:νn(A)=ν(−∞,x]⇒∀t≥0νn(A+6√t}].(7)Then the pair(µ,1β))has property(τ).In particular ifϕis convex,sym-metric andϕ(0)=0then(7)implies property(τ)for(µ,ϕ(·36ϕ(·36ϕ ·36ϕ ·By the definition of w it easily follows that x2≤max{6√β)/36(s2)⊂A f21β ,s1+s2 ,we obtain the property(8).The last part of the statement immediately follows since any symmetric convex functionϕis radius-wise nondecreasing and if additionallyϕ(0)=0, thenϕ(x/36)≤ϕ(x)/36for any x.The next proposition shows that inequalities(3)and(4)are strongly related. Proposition2.7.The following two conditions are equivalent for any Borel set K andγ>1,∀A∈B(R n)µ(A)>0⇒µ(A+K)>min γµ(A),12⇒1−µ(˜A−K)<1γµ(A+K)=1Finally,if x≤0≤x+t,we getµ(A+K)≥1/2=ν(−∞,0],hence by the previous case,µ(A+2K)=µ((A+K)+K)>ν(−∞,t]≥ν(−∞,x+t].Corollary2.8shows that if the cost functionϕis symmetric and convex, condition(7)(with2βinstead ofβ)for t≥1is implied by the following:∀A∈B(R n)µ(A)>0⇒µ(A+βBϕ(t))>min{e tµ(A),1/2}.(11) To treat the case t≤1we will need Cheeger’s version of the Poincar´e inequality.We say that a probability measureµon R n satisfies Cheeger’s inequality with constantκif for any Borel set Aµ(A+tB n2)−µ(A)µ+(A):=lim inft→0+tB n2for all t<1,hence Cheeger’s inequality implies that condition(7)holds for t<1with C=αδ.Therefore(7)holds for all t≥0with C=min{2γ,αδ}and the assertion follows by Corollary2.6.2.3Optimal cost functionsA natural question arises:what other pairs(µ,ϕ)have property(τ)?First we have to choose the right cost function.To do this let us recall the following definitions.Definition2.10.Let f:R n→(−∞,∞].The Legendre transform of f,denoted L f is defined by L f(x):=sup y∈R n{ x,y −f(y)}.The Legendre transform of any function is a convex function.If f is convex and lower semi-continuous,then LL f=f,and otherwise LL f≤f.In general, if f≥g,then L f≤L g.The Legendre transform satisfies L(Cf)(x)=C L f(x/ C)and if g(x)=f(x/C),then L g(x)=L f(Cx).For this and other properties of L,cf.[15].The Legendre transform has been previously used in the context of convex geometry,see for instance[2]and[13].7Definition 2.11.Let µbe a probability measure on R n.We define M µ(v ):= R ne v,x dµ(x ),Λµ(v ):=log M µ(v )andΛ⋆µ(v ):=L Λµ(v )=supu ∈R nv,u −ln R n e u,x dµ(x ) .The function Λ⋆µplays a crucial role in the theory of large deviations cf.[9].Remark 2.12.Let µbe a symmetric probability measure on R n and let ϕbe a convex cost function such that (µ,ϕ)has property (τ).Thenϕ(v )≤2Λ⋆µ(v/2)≤Λ⋆µ(v ).Proof.Take f (x )= x,v .Thenf 2ϕ(x )=inf y (f (x −y )+ϕ(y ))=inf y ( x −y,v +ϕ(y ))= x,v −L ϕ(v ).Property (τ)yields1≥e f 2ϕdµ e −f dµ=e −L ϕ(v ) e x,v dµ e − x,v dµ=e −L ϕ(v )M 2µ(v ),where the last equality uses the fact that µis symmetric.Thus by taking the logarithm we get L ϕ(v )≥2Λµ(v ),and by applying the Legendre transform we obtain ϕ(v )=LL ϕ(v )≤2Λ⋆µ(v/2).The inequality 2Λ⋆µ(v/2)≤Λ⋆µ(v )followsby the convexity of Λ⋆µ.The above remark motivates the following definition.Definition 2.13.We say that a symmetric probability measure µsatisfies the infimum convolution inequality with constant β(IC(β)in short),if the pair (µ,Λ∗µ(·Proof.If we put V ={(v 0,˜v ):v 0=−Λµ(β˜v )},then the right-hand side is equal to 1and ψV (x )=Λ⋆µ(x/β),so if µsatisfies (13)for this V ,it satisfies IC(β).On the other hand,suppose µsatisfies IC(β).Take an arbitrary nonempty set V .If the right-hand side supremum is infinite,the inequality is obvious,so we may assume it is equal to some s <∞.This means that for any (v 0,˜v )∈V we have v 0+Λµ(β˜v )≤log s ,that is v 0≤log s −Λµ(β˜v ).ThusψV (x )=sup v ∈V {v 0+ x,˜v }≤log s +sup v ∈V{ x,˜v −Λµ(β˜v )}≤log s +sup ˜v ∈R n{ x,˜v −Λµ(β˜v )}=log s +Λ⋆µ(x/β),which in turn means from IC(β)that the left hand side is no larger than s .Proposition 2.16.Let L :R n →R k be a linear map and suppose that a prob-ability measure µon R n satisfies IC(β).Then the probability measure µ◦L −1satisfies IC(β).Proof.For any set V ⊂R ×R k and any function f :R k →R put ¯f (x ):=f (L (x ))and ¯V :={(v 0,L ⋆(˜v )):(v 0,˜v )∈V },where L ⋆is the Hermitian conjugate of L .Then direct

short)if for all nonempty compact sets A,B and t∈[0,1],µ(tA+(1−t)B)≥µ(A)tµ(B)1−t.By Borell’s theorem[7]a measureµon R n with a full–dimensional support is logarithmically concave if and only if it is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure and has a logarithmically concave density,i.e.dµ(x)= e h(x)dx for some concave function h:R n→[−∞,∞).Note that ifµis a probabilistic,symmetric and log–concave measure on R n, then bothΛµandΛ⋆µare convex and symmetric,andΛµ(0)=Λ⋆µ(0)=0.Recall also that a probability measureµon R n is called isotropic if u,x dµ(x)=0and u,x 2dµ(x)=|u|2for all u∈R n.It is easy to check that for any measureµwith a full–dimensional support there exists a linear map L such thatµ◦L−1is isotropic.The next theorem(with a different universal,but rather large constant)may be deduced from the results of Gozlan[10].We give the following,relatively short proof for the sake of completeness.Theorem2.18.Any symmetric log-concave measure on R satisfies IC(48). Proof.Letµbe a symmetric log–concave probability measure on R,we may assumeµis isotropic by Proposition2.16.Denote the density ofµby g(x)and let the tail function beµ[x,∞)=e−h(x).Leta:=inf{x>0:g(x)≤e−1g(0)},then g(x)≤e−x/a g(0)for x>a and g(x)≥e−x/a g(0)for x∈[0,a).Therefore ∞0g(x)dx≤ag(0)+ ∞a g(0)e−x/a dx,that is1/2≤ag(0)(1+e−1).(14) We also have a0x2g(0)e−x/a dx≤ ∞0x2g(x)dx,soa3g(0)(2−5e−1)≤1/2.(15) From(14)and(15)we get in particular1e2(2e−5)Let T:R→R be a function such thatν(−∞,x)=µ(−∞,T x).Thenµ=ν◦T−1,T is odd and concave on[0,∞).In particular,|T x−T y|≤2|T(x−y)| for all x,y∈R.Notice that T′(0)=1/(2g(0))≤4,thus by concavity of T,T x≤4x for x≥0.Moreover for x≥0,h(T x)=x+ln2.Define˜h(x):= x2for|x|≤2/3max{4/9,h(x)}for|x|>2/3.We claim that(µ,˜h(·24 ≤w(x)for x≥0,(16) where w(x)is as in Theorem2.5.We have two cases.i)T x≤16,then˜h T x24 2≤min 46 2 ≤w(x).ii)T x≥16,then x≥4and˜h T x9,h T x9,h(T x)9,x+ln29≤w(x).So(16)holds in both cases.To conclude we need to show thatΛ∗µ(x)≤˜h(x).For|x|≤2/3it follows from the more general Proposition3.3below.Notice that for any t,x≥0,Λµ(t)≥tx+lnµ[x,∞)=tx−h(x),henceΛ∗µ(x)=Λ∗µ(|x|)=supt≥0 t|x|−Λµ(t) ≤h(|x|)≤˜h(x)for|x|>2/3.Using Corollary2.14we getCorollary2.19.Any symmetric,log–concave product probability measure on R n satisfies IC(48).We expect that in fact a more general fact holds.Conjecture1.Any symmetric log–concave probability measure satisfies IC(C) with a uniform constant C.113Concentration inequalities.3.1L p-centroid bodies and related setsDefinition3.1.Letµbe a probability measure on R n,for p≥1we define the following setsM p(µ):= v∈R n: | v,x |p dµ(x)≤1 ,Z p(µ):=(M p(µ))◦= x∈R n: v,x p≤ v,y p dµ(y)for all v∈R n and for p>0we putB p(µ):={v∈R n:Λ∗µ(v)≤p}.Sets Z p(µK)for p≥1,whenµK is the uniform disribution on the convex body K are called L p-centroid bodies of K,their properties were investigated in[18].Proposition3.2.For any symmetric probability measureµon R n and p≥1,Z p(µ)⊂21/p eB p(µ).Proof.Let us take v∈Z p(µ),we need to show thatΛ⋆µ(v/(21/p e))≤p,that isu,v21/p e−Λµ(u)≤ββ,v ≤p·1.ii)β>21/p ep.We havee u,x dµ(x)≥ e u,x /p p I{ u,x

in the previous subsection,we introduce the following property:Definition 3.4.We say that a measure µon R n is α-regular if for any p ≥q ≥2and v ∈R n ,| v,x |pdµ(x )1/p ≤αp 2eα≤p.(17)Indeed if we fix u ∈M p (µ)and put ˜u :=pu2eα| u,x |k dµ(x ) 1/k ≤p 2ek >p.Hencee˜u ,xdµ(x )≤e| ˜u ,x |dµ(x )=∞ k =01k !p k !k 2eα+1≤e p13and(17)follows.Take any v /∈4eαZ p (µ),then we may find u ∈M p (µ)such that v,u >4eαand obtainΛ∗µ(v )≥ v,pu 2eα>p 2αe,|u |22p }B n2for all p >0.Proof.We have by the symmetry,isotropicity and regularity of µ,eu,xdµ(x )=∞k =012+∞ k =2(αk |u |)2k 2+∞ k =2αe |u |2+424≤1+α2e 2|u

measure µand u ∈R n ,then the random variable S = u,X has a log–concave symmetric distribution on the real line.We need to show that (E |S |p )1/p ≤p(Γ(q +1))1/q(E |S |q )1/q ,14so it is enough to show that the function f (x ):=12πx x +1/2e −x +µ(x ),where µ(x )=∞arctg(t/x )(e 2πt −1)−1dt is decreasing function.Thusln f (x )=µ(x )2x−1is indeed nonincreasing on [2,∞).Let us introduce the following notion:Definition 3.9.We say that a measure µsatifies the concentration inequality with constant β(CI(β)in short)if∀p ≥2∀A ∈B (R n )µ(A )≥1Proposition3.11.Letµbe a symmetric log-concave

Conjecture2.Both hy-potheses would be equivalent provided that the following conjecture of Kannan, Lov´a sz and Simonovits holds.Conjecture3(Kannan–Lov´a sz–Simonovits[11]).There exists an absolute con-stant C such that any symmetric isotropic log–concave probability measure sat-isfies Cheeger’s inequality with constant1/C.3.3Comparison of weak and strong momentsProposition3.12.Suppose that a

Let y∈Z p,then there exists u∈R n with u ∗≤1such thaty = u,y ≤ | u,x |p dµ(x) 1/p≤m p,hence x ≤M+tm p for x∈A+t Z p(µ).Thus for t≥p,µ x: x ≥M+αβt p Z p(µ) ≤1pm p ≤e−t for t≥p.17Now integrating by

t/2 A ∩nB n 1∩ x :x 1≤−u .Remark 4.2.A similar result (although with a constant multiplicative factor)can be obtained using the same technique and more calculations for n 1/p B npinstead of nB n1for p ∈[1,2].Lemma 4.3.If u ≥t >0then for any i ∈{1,...,n }we haveνn A +tB n1∩ x :|x i |≥u −t ≥e t/2νn A ∩ x :|x i |≥u .Proof.Take an arbitrary k ∈N .Let P :R n +k →R n be the projection onto firstn coordinates.Let ρk be the uniform probability measure on (n +k )B n +k1,and ˜νk the measure defined by ˜νk (A )=ρk (P −1(A )).Take an arbitrary set A ⊂R n .Notice that for any set C ⊂R n we haveC ∩{x :|x i |≥s }=P P −1(C )∩{x :|x i |≥s }and also P −1(A )+B n +k 1⊂P −1(A +B n1).From Lemma 4.1we haveρk P −1(A )+tB n +k1∩ x :|x i |≥u −t ≥e t/2ρk P −1(A )∩ x :|x i |≥u ,and thus˜νk A +tB n1∩ x :|x i

this section we will prove the infimum convolution property IC(C )for B npballs.Recall that νnp is a product measure,while µp,n denotes the uniformmeasure on r p,n B np .We haver −np,n=|B n p |=2n Γ(1+1/p )nn n/p (Proposition 5.1.For any p ≥1and t ∈R we haveB t (νp )∼{x :f p (|x |)≤t },and Λ⋆νp (t/C )≤f p (|t |)≤Λ⋆νp (Ct ),where f p (t )=t 2for t <1and f p (t )=t p for t ≥1.Proof.We shall use the facts proved in Section 3to approximate B t (νp ).Notethat νp is log-concave (as its density is log-concave)and symmetric.It is 1–regular from Proposition 3.8.Alsoσ2p :=R x 2dνp (x )=1p )p )∼1for p ∈[1,∞).The measure ˜νp with the density σp dνp (σp x )is isotropic,hencePropositions 3.3and 3.6yield B t (˜νp )∼√t,√t,√2γpR|u |t|x |t e −|x |pdx ≤1= u ∈R :|u |≤tp )p)∼{u ∈R :|u |≤t −1/p }.Thus Z t (νp )∼[−t 1/p ,t 1/p ]for |t |≥1,so by Propositions 3.2and 3.5,B t (νp )∼[−t 1/p ,t 1/p ].Hence,for all t ≥0we have {x :f p (|x |)≤t }∼{x :Λ⋆νp (x )≤t },so Λ⋆νp (t/C )≤f p (t )≤Λ⋆νp (Ct ).As Λ⋆νp is symmetric,the proof is finished.Corollary 5.2.For any t >0and n ∈N we haveB t (νn p )∼ √tB n 2∩t 1/p B np for p ≥2.Proof.By Proposition 5.1,B t (νnp )={x ∈R n :Λ⋆νp(x i )≤t }∼{x ∈R n : f p (|x i |)≤t }.Simple calculations show that {x ∈R n : f p (|x i |)≤t }∼t 1/2B n 2+t 1/p B n p forp ∈[1,2]and {x ∈R n : f p (|x i |)≤t }∼t 1/2B n 2∩t 1/p B np for p ≥2.Proposition 5.3.For any t ∈[0,n ],p ≥1and n ∈N we have B t (µp,n )∼B t (νn p ).Proof.For t <1we use Propositions 3.3and 3.6.Both µp,n and νn p are sym-metric,log–concave measures,and both can be rescaled as in Proposition 5.1to be isotropic,thus B t (µp,n )∼√(max {n,t })1/p| a,x |tdνn p (x )1/t(21)23for any p,t≥1and a∈R n.Note that as r p,n∼n1/p,this simply means the equivalence of t-th moments ofµp,n andνp,n for t∈[0,n].Thus M t(µp,n)∼M t(νp,n)for t≤n and therefore B t(µp,n)∼B t(νp,n).Remark5.4.It is not hard to verify that B t(µp,n)∼r p,n B n p for t≥n.5.1Transports of measureWe are now going to investigate two transports of measure.They will combineto transport a measure with known concentration properties(νn orνn2,that is the exponential or Gaussian measure)to the uniform measureµp,n.We will investigate the contractive properties of these transports with respect to various norms.Our motivation is the following:Remark5.5.Let U:R n→R n be a map such thatU(x)−U(y) p p≥δ x−y q q for all x∈R n,y∈A.ThenU A+t1/q B n q ⊃U R n ∩ U(A)+δ1/p t1/p B n p . Analogously ifU(x)−U(y) p p≤δ x−y q q for all x∈R n,y∈AthenU A+t1/q B n q ⊂U(A)+δ1/p t1/p B n p.Proof.Let us prove thefirst statement,the second proof is almost identical. Suppose U(x)∈U(A)+δ1/p t1/p B n p.Then there exists y∈A such that U(x)−U(y) p p≤δt.From the assumption we have t≥ x−y q q,which means x∈A+t1/q B n q,and U(x)∈U(A+t1/q B n q).Thefirst transport we introduce is the radial transport T p,n which transforms the product measureνn p ontoµp,n–the uniform measure on r p,n B n p.We will show this transport is Lipschitz with respect to theℓp norm and Lipschitz on a large set with respect to theℓ2norm for p≤2.Definition5.6.For p∈[1,∞)and n∈N let f p,n:[0,∞)→[0,∞)be given bythe equations0e−r p r n−1dr=(2γp)n f p,n(s)0r n−1dr(22) and T p,n(x):=xf p,n( x p)/ x p for x∈R n.Let usfirst show the following simple estimate.Lemma5.7.For any q>0and0≤u≤q/2,q u0e−t t q−1dt≤e−u u q 1+2u。

PRELIMINARYASSESSMENT (FOR EARLY STAGES OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT/DISSOLUTION METHODDEVELOPMENT)1. 前期评估(产品开发/溶出度办法开发的初期阶段)Beforemethod development can begin, it is important to characterize the molecule sothat the filter, medium, volume of medium, and apparatus can be chosen properlyin order to evaluate the performance of the dosage form.在开始溶出办法开发之前,我们对用以评价制剂溶出行动的滤膜、溶出介质、溶出介质体积和溶出设备进行适当的筛选是很是重要的.1.1 Performing Filter CompatibilityFiltrationis a key samplepreparation step in achieving accurate test results. Thepurpose of filtration is to remove undissolved drug and excipients from thewithdrawn solution. If not removed from the sample solution, particles of thedrug will continue to dissolve and can bias the results. Therefore, filteringthe dissolution samples is usually necessary and should be done immediately ifthe filter is not positioned on the cannula.为取得准确试验结果,过滤是样品制备的一个关头步调.过滤的目的是为了除去溶出液中未溶解的药物和辅料.如果不把未溶解的药物和辅料从样品溶液中除去,那么未溶解的药物颗粒将会持续溶解使试验结果出现偏差,因此,如果取样管中没有过滤器,应立即对溶出度样品进行过滤. Filtration also removes insolubleexcipients that may otherwise interfere with the analytical finish. Selectionof the proper filter material is important and should be accomplished, andexperimentally justified, early in the development of the dissolutionprocedure. Important characteristics to consider when choosing a filtermaterial are type, filter size, and pore size. Thefilter that is selectedbased on evaluation during the early stages of dissolution procedure developmentmay need to be reconsidered at a later time point. Requalification has to beconsidered after a change in composition of the drug product or changes in thequality of the ingredients (e.g. particle size of microcrystalline cellulose).过滤也可除去可能会搅扰阐发测定的不溶性辅料.选择适当的过滤资料是很是重要,应该在早期溶出办法开发的进程中通过实验确定和完成.在选择滤膜时有需要重点考虑滤膜的资料、型号和孔径大小.通常对早期阶段溶出办法开发进程的评价选择过滤器,但在前期试验中如果制剂成分改动或组成成分质量变更可能需要重新考虑过滤器,(例如:微晶纤维素粒径的改动).Examples of filters used in dissolutiontesting can be cannula filters, filter disks or frits, filter tips, or syringefilters. The filter material has to be compatible with the media and themon pore sizes range from 0.20 to 70 mm, however, filters of other poresizes can be used as needed. If the drug substance particle size is very small(e.g., micronized or nanoparticles), it can be challenging to find a filterpore size that excludes these small particles.用于溶出试验的过滤器有管路过滤器、过滤盘或玻璃过滤器、滤头或针头式过滤器.过滤资料必须与介质和药物相适合.罕有孔径大小规模:0.20~70μm,如果需要也可使用其他孔径大小的过滤器.如果原料药的粒度很小(例如,微分化颗粒或纳米颗粒),找到一个适合的过滤器过滤这些小颗粒至今仍具有挑战性.Adsorption of the drug(s) by the filtermay occur and needs to be evaluated. Filter materials will interact withdissolution media to affect the recovery of the individual solutes and must beconsidered on a casebycase basis. Different filter materials exhibitdifferent drugbinding properties. Percentage of drug loss from the filtratedue to binding may be dependent on the drug concentration. Therefore theadsorptive interference should be evaluated on sample solutions at differentconcentrations bracketing the expected concentration range. Where the drugadsorption is saturable, discarding an initial volume of filtrate may allow thecollection of a subsequent solution that approaches the original solutionconcentration. Alternative filter materials that minimize adsorptiveinterference can usually be found. Prewetting of the filter with the medium maybe necessary. In addition, it is important that leachables from the filter donot interfere with the analytical procedure. This can beevaluated by analyzingthe filtered dissolution medium and comparing it with the unfiltered medium.过滤时可能会产生药物的吸附,需要进行评估.过滤资料将与溶出介质相互作用,影响每个溶质的收受接管率应该按照具体问题进行考虑.不合的过滤资料表示出与药物结合的不合特性.由于药物与滤膜结合引起药物从滤液中损失的比例,可能依赖于药物浓度.因此,应采取预期浓度规模内不合浓度的样品溶液来评估滤膜吸附搅扰.由于药物吸附是可饱和的,弃去一定体积的初滤液,收集续滤液,以达到接近原来的溶液浓度的样品也是可取的.通常选择适合的过滤资料,最大限度地削减滤膜吸附搅扰,润湿滤膜对削减吸附也是需要的.此外,过滤后的溶出物不搅扰阐发检测也是很是重要的,这可以通过过滤后的溶出介质过滤与未过滤的溶出介质进行比较,评估滤膜是否搅扰阐发测定.The filter size should be based on thevolume to be withdrawn and the amount of particles to be separated. Use of thecorrect filter dimensions will improve throughput and recovery, and also reduceclogging. Use of a large filter for smallvolume filtration can lead to loss ofsample through holdup volume, whereas filtration through small filter sizesneeds higher pressures and longer times, and the filters can clog quickly.按照要过滤样品溶液的体积以及样品溶液中颗粒的量选择滤膜孔径.使用正确的滤膜孔径将提高溶液的通过率和收受接管率,并削减滤膜堵塞.使用大孔径滤膜过滤小体积溶液,能够导致样品溶液损失量过大而收集不到所用样品量;使用小孔径滤膜过滤,需要更高的压力和较长的时间,并且溶液迅速堵塞滤膜.Filters used for USP Apparatus 4 needspecial attention because they are integrated in the flowthrough process.Undissolved particles may deposit on the filters, creating resistance to theflow.USP仪器4中使用的过滤器需要特别注意,因为它们在流动进程中使用.不溶颗粒会沉积在过滤器,产生流动阻力. In the case of automated systems,selection of the filter with regard to material and pore size can be done in asimilar manner to manual filtration. Flow rate through the filter and cloggingmay be critical for filters used in automated systems. Experimentalverification that a filter isappropriate may be accomplished by comparing the responses for filtered andunfiltered standard and sample solutions. This is done by first preparing asuitable standard solution and a sample solution. For example, prepare atypical dissolution sample in a beaker and stir vigorously witha magneticstirrer to dissolve the drug load completely.For standard solutions, comparethe results for filtered solutions (after discarding the appropriate volume) tothose for the unfiltered solutions. For sample solutions, compare the resultsfor filtered solutions (after discarding the appropriate volume) to those forcentrifuged, unfiltered solutions.在自动化系统的情况下,关于过滤器滤膜资料和孔径大小可以用类似的方法通过手动过滤进行选择.在自动化系统中通过过滤器的流量和过滤器的堵塞可能是至关重要的.通过试验比较过滤和未过滤的尺度溶液和样品溶液的含量不同,验证该过滤器是适合的.首先制备一个适合的尺度溶液和样品溶液.例如,在烧杯中制备一个尺度溶解样品,用磁力搅拌器搅拌使药物完全溶解.对于尺度溶液,比较过滤溶液(弃去的适当体积后)和未过滤溶液的含量测定结果;对于样品溶液,比较过滤(弃去适当体积后)、离心、未过滤样品溶液的含量测定结果.1.2 Determining Solubility and Stability of DrugSubstance in Various MediaPhysical and chemical characteristics of the drug substance need to be determinedas part of the process of selecting the proper dissolution medium. Whendeciding the composition of the medium for dissolution testing, it is importantto evaluate theinfluence of buffers, pH, and if needed, different surfactantson the solubility and stability of the drug substance. Solubility of the drugsubstance is usually evaluated by determining the saturation concentration ofthe drug in different media at 37°using the shakeflask solubility method(equilibrium solubility). To level out potential ion effects between the drugand the buffers used in the media, mixtures of hydrochloric acid and sodiumhydroxide are used to perform solubility investigations; this is in addition tothe typical buffer solutions. In certain cases, it may be necessary to evaluatethe solubility of the drug at temperatures other than 37° (i.e., 25°). The pHof the clear supernatant should be checked to determine whether the pH changesduring the solubility test. Alternative approaches for solubility determinationmay also be used.在选择适合溶出介质的进程中,需要确定原料药的物理化学特性.当需要确定溶出度试验中溶出介质的组成时,有需要评估缓冲液、pH值、以及不合的概略活性剂(如果需要)对药物的溶解度和稳定性的影响.在37℃温度条件下,采取摇瓶溶解法(平衡溶解度)测定原料药在不合介质中的饱和浓度,来评估药物的溶解性.为了消除溶出介质中药物弛缓冲液之间离子的潜在影响,使用盐酸和氢氧化钠的混杂物对溶解度进行研究,这是一种典型的缓冲溶液.在某些情况下,评估药物在37℃以外条件下(即,25℃)的溶解度可能也是需要的.在溶解度试验进程中应查抄上清溶液的pH值,以确定在溶解进程中pH值是否改动.也可使用其他可供选择的办法进行溶解度测定.Typical media for dissolution mayinclude the following (not listed in order of preference): diluted hydrochloricacid, buffers (phosphate or acetate) in the physiologic pH range of 1.2–7.5, simulatedgastric or intestinal fluid (with or without enzymes),and water. For somedrugs, incompatibility of the drug with certain buffers or salts may influencethe choice of buffer. The molarity of the buffers and acids used can influencethe solubilizing effect, and this factor may be evaluated.溶出的典型介质包含(未依照优先顺序列出):稀盐酸、在生理pH值规模为1.27.5缓冲溶液(磷酸盐或醋酸盐)、模拟胃液或肠液(含有或不含有酶)和水.对于一些药物,与药物不相容的特定缓冲液或盐可能会影响缓冲剂的选择.所使用的缓冲液和酸的体积摩尔浓度能够改动药物的增溶作用,这个因素也需要评估.Aqueous solutions (acidic or buffersolutions) may contain a percentage of a surfactant [e.g., sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS),polysorbate, or lauryldimethylamine oxide] to enhance thesolubility of the drug. The surfactants selected for thesolubilityinvestigations should cover all common surfactant types, i.e., anionic,nonionic, and cationic. When a suitable surfactant has been identified,different concentrations of that surfactant should be investigated to identifythe lowest concentration neededto achieve sink conditions. Typically,the surfactant concentration is above its critical micellar concentration(CMC). Table 1 shows a list of some of the surfactants used indissolution media. Approximate CMC values are provided with referenceswhenavailable. The list is not comprehensive and is not intended to exclude surfactantsthat are not listed. Other substances, such ashydroxypropyl b cyclodextrin,have been used as dissolution media additives to enhance dissolution of poorlysoluble compounds.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) maintains adatabase of dissolution methods, including information on dissolution mediathat have been used (1). Typically, the amount of surfactant added issufficient to achieve sink conditions in the desired volume of dissolutionmedium.有时候水溶性介质中(酸性水溶液或缓冲溶液)可能添加一定比例的概略活性剂(如十二烷基硫酸钠(SDS),聚山梨醇酯,或十二烷基二甲基氧化胺)以提高药物的溶解度.选择用于溶解度研究的概略活性剂时应涵盖所有经常使用种类的概略活性剂,比方阴离子、非离子型和阳离子,当已经确定一个适合的概略活性剂时,应对概略活性剂的不合浓度进行研究,以确定达到漏槽条件所需的最低浓度.一般情况下,概略活性剂的浓度高于它的临界胶束浓度(CMC).表1列出了溶出介质中经常使用的概略活性剂,表中提供了CMC的近似临界值,以便我们参考,此外,表中所列概略活性剂其实不全面,不克不及排除未列出的概略活性剂.其他概略活性剂,如羟丙基β环糊精,已被用来作为溶出介质添加剂提高难溶性化合物的溶解度,美国食品药品办理局(FDA)溶出度数据库中,已经收载含有羟丙基β环糊精的溶出介质(1).通常情况下,概略活性剂的参加量以满足达到漏槽条件所需的溶出介质体积.It is important to control thegrade and purity of surfactants because use of different grades could affectthe solubility of the drug. For example, SDS is available in both a technicalgrade and a highpurity grade. Obtaining polysorbate 80 from different sourcescan affect its suitability when performing highperformance liquidchromatography (HPLC) analysis.由于使用不合级此外概略活性剂会影响药物的溶解度,因此要控制概略活性剂的级别和纯度.例如,SDS只有在产业级和高纯度级才可以使用.在使用HPLC办法进行阐发时,不合来源的聚山梨酯(吐温)80会影响它的适用性. There may be effects of counterions orpH on the solubility or solution stability of the surfactant solutions. Forexample, a precipitate forms when the potassium salt for the phosphate bufferis used at a concentration of 0.5 M in combination with SDS. This can beavoided by using the sodium phosphate salt when preparing media with SDS.反离子或pH值可能会影响概略活性剂溶液的溶解性或稳定性.例如,当含有SDS的磷酸盐缓冲液中钾盐浓度为0.5mol/L时,就形成了沉淀析出,但是使用磷酸钠制备含有SDS的介质时,可以避免这种现象产生.Table 1. Commonly Used Surfactants with Critical MicelleConcentrations表1 罕有概略活性剂的临界胶束浓度Routinely, the dissolution medium is buffered; however, the u搜索引擎优化f purified water as the dissolution medium is suitable for products with adissolution behavior independent of the pH of the medium. There are severalreasons why purified water may not be preferred. The water quality can varydepending on its source, and the pH of the water is not as strictly controlledas the pH of buffer solutions. Additionally, thepH can vary from day to dayand can also change during the run, depending on the drug substance andexcipients. Use of an aqueous–organic solvent mixture as a dissolution mediumis discouraged; however,with proper justification this type of medium may beacceptable.通常,溶出介质为缓冲盐溶液,但是,对于非pH值依赖性的制剂可以使用纯化水作为溶出介质.不推荐使用纯化水作为溶出介质的原因:水的质量变更取决于它的来源,而水的pH值不像缓冲溶液能够严格控制;此外,若药物和辅料的溶出对pH值敏感时需要考虑使用缓冲液.另外使用水有机溶剂混杂物作为溶出介质也是不推荐的,但是,特殊情况下(有充分适当的理由),也是可以接受的. Investigations of the stability of thedrug substance should be carried out, when needed, in the selected dissolutionmedium with excipients present, at 37°. This elevated temperature has thepotential to decrease solution stability (degradation). Stability should allowfor sufficient time to complete or repeat the analytical procedure. Physicalstability may be of concern when precipitation occurs because of lowersolubility at room or refrigerated temperature.需要时,应该对原料药的稳定性进行考察,在所选择的溶出介质中参加辅料,在37℃条件下进行考察.这种升高的温度会潜在的下降溶液的稳定性(降解).稳定性试验应考虑到有足够的时间来完成或重复阐发进程.当因室温或冷藏贮存时下降药物的溶解度而产生沉淀时,物理稳定性也需要存眷.1.3 Choosing aMedium and VolumeWhen developing a dissolution procedure, one goal is to have sinkconditions, which are defined as having a volume of medium at least three timesthe volume required to form a saturated solution of drug substance. When sinkconditions are present, it is more likely that dissolution results will reflectthe properties of the dosage form. A medium that fails to provide sinkconditions may be acceptable if it is appropriately justified. The compositionand volume of dissolution medium are guided by the solubility investigations.For example, the choice and concentration of a surfactant need to be justifiedfrom the solubility data and the dissolution profiles.当开发一个溶出试验办法时,首先要满足漏槽条件,漏槽条件定义为溶出介质体积至少为药物达到饱和溶液所需体积的三倍.当满足漏槽条件后,溶出度结果能够更好的反应药物制剂的质量.在适当条件下,介质不满足漏槽条件也是可以接受的.溶解介质的组成和体积应按照溶解度的试验结果进行调整.例如,概略活性剂种类和浓度选择,需要按照药物溶解度数据和溶出曲线进行调整.The use of enzymes in the dissolutionmedium is permitted, in accordance with Dissolution <711>, when dissolution failures occur as a result of crosslinkingwith gelatin capsules or gelatincoated products. A discussion of thephenomenon of crosslinking and method development using enzymes can be found inCapsules–Dissolution Testing and Related Quality Attributes<1094>. Validation should be performed with the method using enzymesaccording to section 5. Validation.当交联明胶胶囊或明胶包衣的制剂溶出失败时,在溶出介质中允许参加酶,这同溶出度<711>指导原则一致.在“Capsules–Dissolution Testing and RelatedQuality Attributes<1094>”中可以找到产生交联现象的讨论和采取酶进行办法开发的研究.按照第5节验证,使用酶办法依照溶出度办法学验证的要求进行验证.Another option is to use media thatfollow more closely the composition of fluids in the stomach and intestinaltract. These media may contain physiological surfaceactive ingredients, suchas taurocholates. The media also may contain emulsifiers (lecithin) andcomponents such as saline solution that increase osmolality. Also, the ionicstrength or molarity of the buffersolutions may be manipulated. The media aredesigned to represent the fed and fasted state in the stomach and smallintestine.These media may be very useful in modeling in vivo dissolutionbehavior of immediaterelease (IR) dosage forms, in particular those containinglipophilic drug substances, and may help in understanding the dissolutionkinetics of the product related to the physiological makeup of the digestivefluids. Results of successful modeling of dissolution kinetics have beenpublished,mainly for IR products. In the case of extendedrelease dosage formswith reduced effect of the drug substance on dissolution behavior, the use ofsuch media needsto be evaluated differently. In vitro performance testing doesnot necessarily require media modeling the fasted and postprandial states (12,13).另一种选择是使用更贴近于胃和肠道流体组分的介质.这些溶出介质可以含有生理概略活性成分,如牛黄胆酸.这些溶出介质也可能含有乳化剂(卵磷脂)和增加渗透压的组分,比方生理盐水溶液.同时,缓冲液的离子强度或体积摩尔浓度是可以控制的.设计的溶出介质模拟了进食和空腹状态下的胃和肠内状态.这些溶出介质对速释制剂(IR)成立体内溶解行动模型方面是很是有用的,特别是这些速释制剂中含有脂溶性的原料药,可能有助于理解和消化液的生理组成相关的制剂溶出动力学.溶解动力学的模型已成功成立,主要用于速释制剂.对缓释剂型削减药物溶解行动的影响,使用的这些溶出介质需要有区别地进行评估.体外性能测试其实不一定需要在空腹和餐后状态成立溶出介质模型. An acid stage is part of the testing ofdelayedrelease products by Method A or Method B in <711>. For drugs with acid solubility less than 10% of the labelclaim or drugs that degrade in acid the usefulness of the acid stage indetecting a coating failure is compromised. This would be handled on acasebycase basis. Possible resolutions include the addition of surfactant tothe acid stage, or adjustment of the specifications.对于肠溶制剂,酸中释放度是溶出度的一部分(<711>办法A或办法B).针对于药物标签中说明在酸中释放度不得过标示量的10%或避免酸液中降解而进行抗酸包衣的药物.按照具体情况进行解决,可能的解决计划包含:酸性介质中添加概略活性剂或调整质量尺度)During selection of the dissolutionmedium, care should be taken to ensure that the drug substance is suitablystable throughout the analysis. In some cases, antioxidants such as ascorbicacid may be used in the dissolution medium to stabilize the drug. There areoccasions where such actions are not sufficient. For compounds that rapidlydegrade to form a stable degradant,monitoring the degradant alone or incombination with a drug substance may be more suitable than analyzing only thedrug substance. In situ spectroscopic techniques tend to be less affected bydegradation when compared with HPLC analysis (including UHPLC and other liquidchromatographic approaches).在选择溶解介质时,应注意采纳措施确保原料药在整个阐发进程中的稳定性.在某些情况下抗氧化剂,如抗坏血酸的,可用于在溶出介质中,以包管药物的稳定性.有些时候参加这些抗氧剂是不敷的.化合物快速降解形成稳定的降解物,单独监测降解物或与原料药联合监控可能比只阐发原料药更适合.与高效液相色谱阐发比较(包含超高效液相色谱等液相色谱法),原位光谱阐发受降解的影响较小.For compendial Apparatus 1 (basket) andApparatus 2 (paddle), the volume of the dissolution medium can vary from 500 to1000 mL. Usually, the volume needed for the dissolution test can be determinedin order to maintain sink conditions. In some cases, the volume can be increased tobetween 2 and 4 L, using larger vessels and depending on the concentration andsink conditions of the drug; justification for this approach is expected. Inpractice, the volume of the dissolution medium is usuallymaintained within the compendial rangegiven above. Alternatively, it may be preferable to switch to other compendialapparatus, such as a reciprocating cylinder (Apparatus 3), reciprocating holder(Apparatus 7), or flowthrough cell (Apparatus 4).Certain applications may require lowvolumes of dissolution media (e.g., 100–200 mL) when the use of a paddle orbasket is preferred. In these cases, an alternative, noncompendial apparatus(e.g., smallvolume apparatus) may be used.对于药典仪器1(篮法)和仪器2(桨法),溶出介质的体积可以从500到1000毫升不合.通常情况下,溶出介质的体积应当满足漏槽条件.在某些情况下,按照药物的浓度和漏槽条件,可使用较大的溶出杯,体积可以增加至2~4升(这种办法必须有充分的理由).实际上,溶出介质的体积通常在药典规则规模内.可供选择时,选用药典规则的其他仪器也是可取的,如往复式气缸(仪器3),往复架(仪器7),或流通池(仪器4).当某些仪器需要较少体积的溶出介质(例如,100200毫升)时,首选桨法或篮法.在这些情况下,非药典仪器仪器(例如,体积小的仪器)也可以选择使用.1.4 Choosingan Apparatus1.4溶出设备选择(桨法和篮法以及其他办法)The choice ofapparatus is based on knowledge of the formulation design and the practicalaspects of dosage form performance in the in vitro test system. In general, acompendial apparatus should be selected.按照对处方设计的认知和体外试验剂型的实际特点选择仪器.一般来说,首选药典仪器.For solid oral dosage forms, Apparatus1 and Apparatus 2 are used most frequently. When Apparatus 1 or Apparatus 2 isnot appropriate, another official apparatus may be used. Apparatus 3(reciprocating cylinder) has been found especially useful for chewable tablets,soft gelatin capsules, delayedrelease dosage forms, and nondisintegratingtypeproducts, such as coated beads. Apparatus 4 (flowthrough cell) may offeradvantages for modifiedrelease dosage forms and immediaterelease dosage formsthat contain active ingredients with limited solubility. In addition, Apparatus4 may have utility for multiple dosage form types such as soft gelatincapsules, beaded products, suppositories, or depot dosage forms, as well assuspensiontype extendedrelease dosage forms. Apparatus 5 (paddle over disk)and Apparatus 6 (rotating cylinder) are useful for evaluating and testingtransdermal dosage forms. Apparatus 7 (reciprocating holder) has application tonondisintegrating, oralmodifiedrelease dosage forms, stents, and implants,as well as transdermal dosage forms. For semisolid dosage forms, the generallyused apparatus include the vertical diffusion cell, immersion cell, andflowthrough cell apparatus with the insert for topical dosage forms (seeSemisolid Drug Products—Performance Tests <1724>).对于口服固体制剂,仪器1和仪器2使用最多.当仪器1或仪器2不适用时,可以使用其他官方仪器.已发明仪器3(往复气缸)适用于咀嚼片、软胶囊、缓释制剂和不崩解型产品(如包衣小球).仪器4(流通池)对活性成分的溶解度有限的缓释剂型和速释剂型提供了良多优势.此外,仪器4可用于多种剂型类型,如软胶囊,微球制剂,栓剂,或贮库型产品,以及悬浮型缓释剂型.仪器5(桨盘)和仪器6(旋转缸)适用于评价和测试的经皮给药制剂.仪器7(往复架)适用非崩解制剂,口服缓释剂型,支架,和植入物,以及透皮制剂.半固态剂型,经常使用的仪器包含立式扩散池,浸入细胞,流通单元仪器适用局部制剂(see Semisolid DrugProducts—Performance Tests <1724>).Some changes can be made to thecompendial apparatus; for example, a basket mesh size other than the typical40mesh basket (e.g., 10, 20, or 80mesh) may be used when the need isclearly documented by supporting data. Care must be taken that basketsareuniform and meet the dimensional requirements specified in <711>.对药典仪器配件也可以进行一些调整;例如,除了药典仪器40目以外的其他规格的溶出篮(例如:10,20或80目),通过充足的数据进行详细的说明后也可以使用.必须注意的是篮网孔径必须是均匀的并且满足<711>规则的尺寸要求.A noncompendial apparatus may have someutility with proper justification, qualification, and documentation ofsuperiority over the standard equipment. For example, a smallvolume apparatuswith mini paddles and baskets may be considered for lowdosage strengthproducts. A rotating bottle or dialysis tubes may have utility for microspheresand implants, peak vessels, and modified flowthrough cells for special dosageforms including powders and stents.非药典溶出仪器具有优于药典尺度仪器的适合设备、资质和文件.例如,一个小体积的溶出仪器配有小桨或小篮可以用于低剂量制剂.旋转瓶或透析管可能适用于微球、植入制剂,改良的流通池适用于特殊剂型包含粉末和支架.2. METHODDEVELOPMENT2. 办法的开发A properly designed test should yielddata that are not highly variable, and should be free of significant stabilityproblems.High variability in the results can make it difficult to identifytrends or effects of formulation changes. Sample size can affect the observedvariability. One guidance defines dissolution results as highly variable if therelative standard deviation (RSD) is more than 20% at time points of 10 min orless and more than 10% at later time points for a sample size of 12 (14).However,during method development, smaller sample sizes may be used, and theanalyst will need to make a judgment accordingly.Most dissolution results,however, exhibit less variability. In the development of a dissolutionprocedure the source of the variability should be investigated, and attemptsshould be made to reduce variability whenever possible. The two most likelycauses are the formulation itself (e.g., drug substance, excipients, ormanufacturing process) or artifacts associated with the test procedure (e.g.,coning, tablets sticking to the vessel wall or basket screen). Visualobservations are often helpful for understanding the source of the variabilityand whether the dissolution test itself is contributing to the variability. Anytime the dosagecontents do not disperse freely throughout the vessel in auniform fashion, aberrant results canoccur. Depending on the problem, theusual remedies include changing any of the following factors: the apparatustype, speed of agitation, level of deaeration,sinker type, or composition ofthe medium.公道设计一个试验包管数据稳定性(即较低的变异性),并且能够明显反应出样品稳定性问题.结果的高变异难以确定处方变更的趋势和处方变更对溶出度结果的影响.样本大小影响所不雅察到的变异性.如果在10分钟 12个样本的相对尺度偏差(RSD)不得过20%或后续取样点的RSD值大于10%.,指导原则对溶出度试验结果定义为高变异性.然而,在办法开发进程中,可以使用较小的样本量,需要对阐发作出相应的判断.大多数溶出结果,表示出较少的变异性.在溶出度试验开发进程中应对产生变异的原因进行研究,只要有可能,应测验考试削减变异性.引起变异性的两个最可能的原因是制剂自己(例如,原料药,辅料,或制剂工艺)和与检测进程相关的处理进程(例如,溶出漩涡,片粘在溶出杯壁或篮网上).试验进程的不雅察往往有助于查找产生变异的原因或溶出度测定办法自己是否会产生变异性.任什么时候间内剂量含量不克不及均匀地分离在整个容器中,异常结果就可能产生.按照不合的问题,通常的调节办法包含下列任何一个因素的改动:仪器,转速,脱气程度,沉降篮类型,或溶出介质的组成.。

When enough energy, in the form of heat, is imparted to the solution the vapor pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure and the liquid begins to boilP < PatmP ≥ PatmCrystallization223/02/10What you need• Pure Protein– Native PAGE – SDS PAGE – N-terminal sequencing - IEF - Mass Spec• Stable for a reasonable period of time– Dependent on stabilization buffer, 4°C vs Room temperture• Concentrated– Need a concentration that will precipitateCrystallization• Once the metabolite has been extracted, it can be further concentrated and purified by crystallisation, either by evaporation or by transfer to lower temperature (gentle way) • Crystallisation refers to the formation of solid crystals from a homogenous solution • Like ice, crystals are physically homogenous solids. • Crystals exhibit a high degree of internal three dimensional order and a definite. • High degree of internal order means that the array of atoms, ions, molecules, or molecule assemblies is ordered over many atomic dimensions. • Is a solid-liquid separation technique, may be achieved by evaporation, low temperature treatment or addition of chemical reactive with the solute323/02/10• If more molecules are added to the solution, the system undergoes internal changes until the point is reached where there is insufficient solvent to maintain full hydration of the molecules. • Under these conditions (the so-called supersaturated state) the system is no longer at equilibrium. • Therefore, it will be thermodynamically driven toward a new equilibrium state with a corresponding new free energy minimum. • Crystallisation is known to lower the free energy of proteins by approximately 3-6 kcal/mole relative to the dissolved state in solution. • This aggregation results in partitioning of the molecules between soluble and solid phases • The solid phase can appear in a state of either amorphous precipitate of crystal nucleiWhat can happened to a supersaturated solution?423/02/10523/02/10How to grow well ordered crystals?•• •The optimal conditions would have to begin with the formation of a preferably single nucleus in the nucleation zone just beyond the metastable zone. As the crystal grow, the solution would return to the metastable region and no more nuclei could occur. The remaining nuclei would grow, at a decreasing rate that would help to avoid defect formation until equilibrium is reachedHow to reach the nucleation zone623/02/10Theory of Crystallization IIIncreasing precipitant concentrationprecipitantCrystalline? solubleIncreasing protein concentrationTypes of crystallization setupsHanging dropCover slip(attached with grease)Sitting DropDrop(Protein/precipitant mix)Clear tapeWell(precipitant)723/02/10What’s in the “well.”• “Precipitant”– Buffers• Screens usually contain 100 mM Buffer pH 4.5-9– Salts• Huge variety here, usually at 200 mM in screens– Precipitants• Poly Ethylene Glycols (PEGS)– 10-30% – MW 400 to 10,000 with very different results• Salts (AmSO4, LiCl, NaFormate, NaCitrate @ 1-3M) • Ethanol, MPD, iso-propanolChemical precipitants• Chemical precipitants are the most widely used agents for achieving supersaturation of macromolecules in order to induce crystallisation. • The influence of these compounds is mainly on the solvent, eg bulk water rather than on the solute. • Commonly used precipitants can be divided into several main categories: salt, high molecular weight straight chain polymers (eg: polyethylene glycol) and organic solvents (2-methyl 2, 4-pentaediol)823/02/10Theory of Crystallization• The protein is mixed with a crystallization solution containing various precipitants. (usually 2µl and 2µl) (called the drop) • The diluted protein and crystallization mixture is incubated “over” the concentrated crystallization solution (called the well). • Over time, the drop will equilibrate with the well concentrating both the protein and the precipitants. • As the protein concentrates it can come out of solution as either a precipitate, a phase transition (oil), or as a crystal.General techniques: Vapor diffusion923/02/10Vapor diffusion and the phase diagramFactors may affect crystallisation1.
