Innovative Strategies for Upcycling Agricultural Residues and Their Various Pharmaceutical Applications.

This review investigates innovative strategies for upcycling agricultural residues into valuable pharmaceutical compounds. The improper disposal of agricultural residues contributes to significant environmental issues, including increased greenhouse gas emissions and ecosystem degradation. Upcycling offers a sustainable solution, transforming these residues into high-value bioproducts (antioxidants, antitumor agents, antidiabetic compounds, anti-inflammatory agents, and antiviral drugs).

Development of a SPE-LC-MS Method for the Quantitation of Palbociclib and Abemaciclib in Human Plasma.

Palbociclib and abemaciclib are two cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 used for breast cancer treatment. Levels of these medicines present a significant interindividual variability, so monitoring those concentrations might be necessary in therapy. Most of the methods presented so far in the literature use simple protein precipitation of plasma proteins as sample preparation method followed by direct injection of the supernatant into the LC instrument, preceded or not by a simple filtration step.

Simultaneous Determination of Two Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Tablets by HPLC-MS analysis.

The class of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is represented by a group of compounds which are currently used in the treatment of different types of cancer. These oral medicines present a narrow therapeutic index and a large inter-and intra-individual variability. Within this work, a simple, accurate and rapid reversed phase ultra-high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-UHPLC) method with mass spectrometric (MS) detection for simultaneous analysis of two TKIs, ibrutinib and ruxolitinib, using pentoxifylline as internal standard (IS) in tablet dosage forms is presented.

Chromatographic analysis of local anesthetics in biological samples.

This paper reviews gas and liquid chromatographic methods for screening, identification and quantification of local anesthetics and/or their metabolites in biological samples. Basic information about sample preparation, separation, detection, and quantification of each procedure is summarised. The pros and cons of the various procedures are critically discussed.
