Question
Chapter 9.11, Problem 9.8CIAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason for using hygroscopic material in the transdermal patches has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
- Many medications are more effective if coated or protected with a substance that reacts slowly in the body during digestion, releasing the medication in the appropriate tissue.
- Some early timed-release medications were encased in a
polymer coating that dissolved slowly. - Enteric coatings dissolve in base, so release the medication only after arriving in the intestine.
- Osmotic pumps release medication from a compartment slowly as a second compartment absorbs moisture from air or body fluids.
- Transdermal patches allow a noninvasive method of delivering medications over time.

Pyruvate is accepted into the TCA cycle by a “feeder” reaction using the pyruvatedehydrogenase complex, resulting in acetyl-CoA and CO2. Provide a full mechanismfor this reaction utilizing the TPP cofactor. Include the roles of all cofactors.
B- Vitamins are converted readily into important metabolic cofactors. Deficiency inany one of them has serious side effects.
a. The disease beriberi results from a vitamin B 1 (Thiamine) deficiency and ischaracterized by cardiac and neurological symptoms. One key diagnostic forthis disease is an increased level of pyruvate and α-ketoglutarate in thebloodstream. How does this vitamin deficiency lead to increased serumlevels of these factors?
b. What would you expect the effect on the TCA intermediates for a patientsuffering from vitamin B 5 deficiency?
c. What would you expect the effect on the TCA intermediates for a patientsuffering from vitamin B 2 /B 3 deficiency?
