A LC/MS method using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization, positive ion mode and full scan to measure the in vitro metabolic stability of cyanoalkyl functionalized compounds with the human liver microsomes was employed. Percentage metabolism examined for the five cyanoalkyl piperidines revealed the optimal chain length and positioning of these functions to produce the most metabolically stable compound. The 4-cyanomethyl piperidine derivative was the most stable compound with 15% metabolism after 15 min incubation with human liver microsomes. In general, the major metabolites formed from the cyanoalkyl piperidine derivatives were due to oxidation of the cyanoalkyl chain or the piperidine fragment, resulting in a M+16 ion. However, the 2-cyanomethyl piperidine derivative exhibited an interesting biotransformation pathway with unusual metabolite peaks corresponding to M+5, M-11 and M+21 ions. Data-dependent MS/MS scanning was used to generate daughter ion spectra from the parent compound and its metabolite peaks. Based on the fragmentation analysis, a carboxylic acid, aldehyde and oxidative metabolite of the carboxylic acid structure have been proposed for M+5, M-11 and M+21 ions, respectively.

Ion mobility spectrometry is successfully used as a sensor technology for different applications. A feature of this method is that characteristic ion mobility spectra are obtained for each measurement rather than a sum signal. The spectra result from the different drift velocities of ions in a drift tube at atmospheric pressure.

Cyclovirobuxine D, a natural compound derived from the medicinal plant Buxus sinica, demonstrates a diverse array of therapeutic benefits, encompassing anti-arrhythmic properties, blood pressure regulation, neuronal protection, and anti-ischemic activity. However, its limited solubility hinders the bioavailability of current oral and injectable formulations, causing considerable adverse reactions and toxicity. In this investigation, we embarked on an unprecedented exploration of the skin penetration potential of cyclovirobuxine D utilizing chemical penetration enhancers and niosomes as innovative strategies to enhance its dermal absorption.

(1) Background: Collagen, a natural polymer, is widely used in the fabrication of membranes for guided bone regeneration (GBR). These membranes are sourced from various tissues, such as skin, pericardium, peritoneum, and tendons, which exhibit differences in regenerative outcomes. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the morphological and chemical properties of porcine collagen membranes from five different tissue sources: skin, pericardium, dermis, tendons, and peritoneum.

Filament winding is a widely used out-of-autoclave manufacturing technique for producing continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites. This study focuses on optimizing key filament winding process parameters, including heater temperature, roller pressure, and winding speed, to produce thermoplastic composites. Using Box-Behnken response surface methodology (RSM), the study investigates the effects of these parameters on the compressive load of glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene (GF/PP) and polyphenylene sulfide (GF/PPS) composite cylinders.
