A new accurate, precise thin layer chromatographic (TLC densitometric) approach was developed for the simultaneous analysis of ergotamine tartrate (ERG), phenobarbital sodium (PHEN), caffeine anhydrous (CAF), dipyrone sodium (DIP) and meprobamate (MEP) in their pure form and in their combined formulation; (MIGRANIL tablets). TLC separation depended on using a stationary phase of TLC plates F (20 × 10 cm) and using a developing system of ethyl acetate: methanol: n- hexane (8:2:3, by volume) with UV scanning at 254 nm for ERG, PHEN, CAF and DIP. For MEP, detection was done at 560 nm after spraying with 0.

In CL, atypical lymphoid cells diffusely infiltrate the cerebral parenchyma without forming a discrete mass as seen with PCNSL. We report a case of a 66-year-old woman with diffuse CL and superimposed areas of PCNSL.

These methods provide a cost-effective alternative to chromatographic techniques by utilizing spectrophotometry in pharmaceutical quality control. The proposed approaches, partial least squares-1 (PLS-1) and artificial neural network (ANN), were optimized using genetic algorithm (GA) to select the most influential wavelengths, enhancing model performance.

Understanding the MSC secretome is crucial for shifting the prototypic conventional cell-based therapies to cell-free regenerative treatments. This systematic review aimed to analyse the functional annotations of the secretome of human adult adipose tissue and bone marrow MSCs and unveil the gene clusters responsible for bone formation.
