Chemometrics approach for optimization of capillary electrophoretic conditions for the separation of insulin analogues.

Six insulin analogues with high degree of chemical similarity were separated using Capillary Electrophoresis (CE). In order to improve the method performance, optimization and development the Design of Experiment (DoE) approach has been used and this strategy provided related statistical models. This methodology delivered the information regarding the influence of main factors in the method development and explained the interaction of relevant factors in terms of shortening the analysis time.

Application of the capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) for the separation of human insulin, insulin lispro and their degradation products.

Two capillary electrophoresis (CE) methods have been developed for the separation of charge and mass variants of human insulin and its recombinant analogue lispro. Since the capillary zone (CZE) and Capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE) are based on different principles of separation, they can be used to detect different impurities of insulin and its analogues. Application of CZE enabled a separation of compounds with different m/z ratio, therefore CZE is a suitable method for the separation of deamidation products of insulin.

Rational development of nanomedicines for molecular targeting in periodontal disease.

Recent advances in understanding the etiology and pathogenesis of periodontal disease and polymicrobial synergy in the dysbiotic oral microbial community endorsed novel therapeutic targets and assured further improvement in periodontal disease treatment. Moreover, understanding of the events at the molecular level inspired the researchers to alleviate the stress from the disease by applying the bottom-up approach and delivering the drugs at the site of action, using nanoscale medicines. This review is focused on promising strategies for rational design of nanopaharmaceuticals for periodontal disease treatment based on novel therapeutic targets and the potential of advanced concepts for inflammation cascade targeting.

Chemometric evaluation of the efficacy of locally administered chlorhexidine in patients with periodontal disease.

The process of assessment of drug efficacy produces multivariate data which are difficult to interpret. The interpretation and extraction of relevant data requires application of chemometric algorithms for multivariate data analysis. The aim of our study was evaluation of the efficacy of local treatment with chlorhexidine (CHX) in patients suffering from periodontal disease by chemometric algorithms for multivariate data analysis.

High-Throughput HPLC-MS/MS Method for Quantification of Ibuprofen Enantiomers in Human Plasma: Focus on Investigation of Metabolite Interference.

In this research, as a part of the development of fast and reliable HPLC-MS/MS method for quantification of ibuprofen (IBP) enantiomers in human plasma, the possibility of IBP acylglucoronide (IBP-Glu) back-conversion was assessed. This involved investigation of in source and in vitro back-conversion. The separation of IBP enantiomers, its metabolite and rac-IBP-d3 (internal standard), was achieved within 6 min using Chiracel OJ-RH chromatographic column (150 × 2.
