Zilpaterol in bovine liver, meat, heart, and kidney, determined by liquid chromatography-quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry.

An analytical method was developed for identification and quantification of zilpaterol in bovine liver, meat, heart, and kidney, using liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS). It was validated in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (CIR) EU 2021/808 at six different concentrations, ranging from 0.1 to 5 μg/kg.

Exposure assessment of pesticide residues, heavy metals, and veterinary drugs through consumption of Egyptian fish samples.

Environmental contaminants may enter seafood products either through water and sediments or via feed and feed additives or may be introduced during fish processing and storage. The study focused on the nutritional and toxicological significance of heavy metals, antibiotics, and pesticide residues in 48 fish samples collected from the Kafr-ElSheikh governorate in Egypt. Various analytical instruments are used to determine and detect heavy metals, antibiotics, and pesticides.

Safety and efficacy of L-Glutamine in reducing the frequency of acute complications among patients with sickle cell disease: A randomized controlled study.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of L-glutamine in reducing vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) and improving cerebral arterial blood flow in children with sickle cell disease (SCD). This is an interventional randomized controlled trial that recruited sixty SCD patients, aged 9.2 ± 3.

Quick and high-throughput quantification of β-agonist residues in bovine liver, meat, milk, kidney, poultry, and egg using dispersive solid phase extraction.

A reliable liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS) method was developed for the simultaneous identification and quantification of 13 β-agonist residues in bovine liver, meat, milk, kidney, poultry, and egg. Dispersive-solid phase extraction (d-SPE) using acetonitrile (ACN) was used to prepare the samples. The analyte in the extracts was separated on a reversed-phase Accucore aQ (50 mm × 2.

Broadband PM6Y6 coreshell hybrid composites for photocurrent improvement and light trapping.

Our research focuses on enhancing the broadband absorption capability of organic solar cells (OSCs) by integrating plasmonic nanostructures made of Titanium nitride (TiN). Traditional OSCs face limitations in absorption efficiency due to their thickness, but incorporating plasmonic nanostructures can extend the path length of light within the active material, thereby improving optical efficiency. In our study, we explore the use of refractory plasmonics, a novel type of nanostructure, with TiN as an example of a refractory metal.
