A high performance liquid chromatography method, using spectrophotometric detection (254 nm) has been developed for the analysis of cloxacillin in an oily suspension. Analysis was performed by isocratic elution with 0.02M potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, methanol, 50/50 (V/V). The method was specific, linear, accurate (99.8 +/- 1.4%) and precise (less than 1.0%). A stability study of cloxacillin in the formulation, showed that about 10% degradation occurred for 6 months storage at room temperature, when lyophilized sodium cloxacillin was used. On the contrary, when sodium cloxacillin obtained by precipitation from non aqueous solvent was used, about 6% degradation appeared in the drug for 3 years storage in the same conditions.

Background: Oxidative stress is strongly linked to neurodegeneration through the activation of c-Abl kinase, which arrests α-synuclein proteolysis by interacting with parkin interacting substrate (PARIS) and aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex-interacting multifunctional protein 2 (AIMP2). This activation, triggered by ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase, leads to dopaminergic neuron loss and α-synuclein aggregation, a critical pathophysiological aspect of Parkinson's disease (PD). To halt PD progression, pharmacological inhibition of c-Abl kinase is essential.

Background: We continue to struggle with the prevention and treatment of the influenza virus. The 2009 swine flu pandemic, caused by the H1N1 strain of influenza A, resulted in numerous fatalities. The threat of influenza remains a significant concern for global health, and the development of novel drugs targeting these viruses is highly desirable.

This optimizes drug efficacy and minimizes systemic side effects.

In the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop efficient half-Heusler (HH) based thermoelectric (TE) materials. However, their practical applications remain limited due to various challenges occurring during the fabrication of TE devices, particularly the development of stable contacts with low interfacial resistance. In this study, we have made an effort to explore a stable contact material with low interfacial resistance for an n-type TiCoSb-based TE material, specifically TiNbCoSbBi as a proof of concept, using a straightforward facile synthesis route of spark plasma sintering.

We aimed to explore the association between plant-based dietary (PBD) patterns and obesity trajectories in middle-aged and elderly, as well as obesity trajectories linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. A total of 7108 middle-aged and elderly UK Biobank participants with at least three physical measurements were included. Dietary information collected at enrolment was used to calculate the healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI).
