Separation of ephedrine stereoisomers by molecularly imprinted polymers was performed to study the factors that affect the selectivity and column efficiency. The polymer synthesized with pentaerythritol triacrylate as the cross-linker and chloroform as the porogen was found to have the best overall separation performance. Investigation of the recognition mechanism by NMR and chromatographic analysis revealed that the major binding forces between the polymer stationary phase and ephedrine are the ionic and hydrogen bonding interactions. Studies of the influence of mobile phase compositions on the HPLC analysis have shown that a methanol-aqueous buffer was the suitable mobile phase for the separation in which pH, ionic strength and water content can be adjusted to optimize the chromatographic analysis.

A randomized control trial to compare Quiet Eye training efficacy to traditional technical training with undergraduate student nurses' peripheral intravenous cannulation performance: a protocol.

Introduction: Peripheral intravenous cannulation (PIVC) is a common and complex procedure with low first-attempt success rates, causing patient suffering and increased healthcare costs. Quiet Eye (QE) training, a gaze-focused approach, has shown promise in improving procedural PIVC skills. We will examine the effectiveness of traditional technical training (TT) and QE training (QET) on student nurse PIVC performance.

Background: A mobile cognition scale for community screening in cognitive impairment with rigorous validation is in paucity. We aimed to develop a digital scale that overcame low education for community screening for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD.

Methods: A mobile cognitive self-assessment scale (CogSAS) was designed through the Delphi process, which is feasible for the older population with low education.

This study presents the development and validation of a precise analytical method for the speciation analysis of arsenic (As) compounds, including inorganic species [As(III) and As(V)] and organic species such as monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA). The method employs anion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography (AE HPLC) coupled with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). To optimize the sample preparation process, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and heat-assisted extraction (HAE) techniques were evaluated and compared.
