A direct injection high-performance liquid chromatographic method with column switching has been developed to determine moxifloxacin in Mueller-Hinton broth. A LiChrocart 4-4 pre-column filled with a LiChrospher 100 RP 18, 5 microm and a 150 x 4.6 mm I.D. column packed with a Supelcozil ABZ+ Plus were used and led to a retention time of 5.70 min. Fluorescence detection allowed one to reach a quantification limit of 0.05 microg/ml with a 100-microl sample size. The standard curves were linear from 0.05 to 3.2 microg/ml. Intra- and inter-day imprecisions within the linearity range were < or =4.76 and < or =5.75%, respectively. The mean relative errors for the same day and the day-to-day inaccuracies ranged from -2.93 to +4.50% and from -1.10 to +6.00%, respectively. The method was demonstrated to be useful for pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic studies of moxifloxacin in an in vitro model.

We generated soybean mutants related to two ß-amyrin synthase genes using DNA-free site-directed mutagenesis system. Our results suggested that one of the genes is predominant in the soyasaponin biosynthesis. Soyasaponins, which are triterpenoid saponins contained in soybean [Glycine max (L.

Background/purpose: Dual-cure resin-cements are used for various dental restorations. However, whether the curing modes of these resin-cements influence gingival inflammation remains unclear. Hence, herein, we evaluated the effects of dual-cure resin-cement curing modes on gingival cytotoxicity and inflammatory responses.

Background: Several cases of pheochromocytoma presenting with hypertensive crises after anesthesia induction, possibly caused by rocuronium injection, have been reported. Rocuronium has two compositions: rocuronium bromide (RB) in sodium acetate hydrate/acetic acid buffer solution (acetic acid vehicle) and RB in glycine/hydrochloric acid buffer solution (hydrochloric acid vehicle). This study assessed the effect of rocuronium composition on the release of catecholamine from PC-12 rat adrenal pheochromocytoma cells.

Background: Selpercatinib, a selective RET kinase inhibitor, is approved for treating various cancers with RET gene mutations such as RET-rearranged thyroid cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. The presence of process-related and degradation impurities in its active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) can significantly affect its safety and effectiveness. However, research on detecting these impurities is limited.

Background: Ginseng Berry Concentrate (GBC) enhances exercise capacity in mice, but the effects of its key component, ginsenoside Re (G-Re), on aging and mitochondrial function are not well understood. This study investigates the impact of G-Re on mitophagy and its potential to promote healthy aging.
Methods: Experiments in C2C12 myocytes and HeLa-mitoKeima-PARKIN cells assessed GBC and G-Re's effects on mitophagy, supported by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis.
