Abstract

Ofloxacin is a class of fluorinated quinolone antibiotics, useful against most of the Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial infections. This study was designed to investigate the impact of the Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment on the structural properties and the isotopic abundance ratio of ofloxacin using LC-MS and GC-MS spectroscopy. Ofloxacin sample was divided into control and treated parts. The control ofloxacin did not receive the Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment, while the treated ofloxacin receives the Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment remotely by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Dahryn Trivedi. The LC-ESI-MS spectra of both the samples of ofloxacin at the retention time 3.05 minutes exhibited the mass of the protonated molecular ion peak at m/z 362.17 M+H+ (calculated for C18H21FN3O4+, 362.15). The LC-MS based isotopic abundance ratio of PM+1/PM in the treated ofloxacin was significantly increased by 56.57% compared with the control sample. Thus,2H, 15N, 13C, and17O contributions from (C18H21FN3O4)+ to m/z 363.17 in the treated ofloxacin were considerably increased compared with the control sample. The GC-MS based isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM and PM+2/PM in the treated ofloxacin was significantly increased by 9.53% and 12.94%, respectively compared with the control sample. Hence,2H, 15N, 13C, 17O, and 18O contributions from (C18H21FN3O4)+ to m/z 318 and 319 in the treated ofloxacin were significantly increased compared with the control sample. The LC-MS and GC-MS based isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM (2H/1H or 15N/14N or 13C/12C or 17O/16O), and PM+2/PM (18O/16O) in the treated ofloxacin were considerably improved compared to the control sample. The increased isotopic abundance ratio of the treated ofloxacin would increase the chemical bond strength and increase the stability in the body. The new form of treated ofloxacin would be more stable compared to the control sample and would be very useful to design improved pharmaceutical formulations that might offer better therapeutic response against infections of the urethra and cervix, infectious diarrhoea, urinary tract infections, cellulitis, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, prostatitis, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, plague, otitis media, etc.

Highlights

  • Ofloxacin is a class of fluorinated quinolone antibiotics, useful against most of the Gram-positive and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Proteus, Salmonella and Shigella species, Neisseriaceae, Yersinia enterocolitica, Haemophilus influenza, etc.) bacterial infections [1]

  • This was proved by the study of the physicochemical properties of Biofield Energy Treated ofloxacin compared to the control sample [7]

  • The isotopic abundance ratio of PM+1/PM in the treated ofloxacin was significantly increased by 9.53% compared with the control sample (Table 2)

Summary

Introduction

Ofloxacin is a class of fluorinated quinolone antibiotics, useful against most of the Gram-positive and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Proteus, Salmonella and Shigella species, Neisseriaceae, Yersinia enterocolitica, Haemophilus influenza, etc.) bacterial infections [1]. Ofloxacin restricts the bacteria cell division restricted by means of inhibiting DNA gyrase, which separates the replicated DNA [2]. It is used for the treatment of diseases like infections of the urethra and cervix, infectious diarrhoea, urinary tract infections, cellulitis, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, prostatitis, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, plague, otitis media, etc. It may increase the blood levels of other drugs such as theophylline, cyclosporine, warfarin, etc. It shows to increase the anticoagulant, cardiotoxicity, and arrhythmias effects of the drugs such as acenocoumarol, barbiturate, etc. It shows to increase the anticoagulant, cardiotoxicity, and arrhythmias effects of the drugs such as acenocoumarol, barbiturate, etc. [4, 5]
