A selective high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method with ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) detection was developed to measure therapeutic concentrations of spectinomycin in turkey plasma. Treatment of plasma samples with 3% trifluoroacetic acid in acetonitrile facilitated spectinomycin extraction and protein precipitation. After centrifugation, the stable derivatization reagent, 2,4-dinitrophenyl-hydrazine, was added to an aliquot of the supernatant, and the mixture was incubated for 30 min at 70 degrees C. Excess reagent was quenched with acetone and additional heating. The resulting derivative, a proposed spectinomycin-hydrazone, was separated from other compounds by reversed-phase HPLC during a short gradient run. The absorbance of the effluent was monitored spectrophotometrically with the UV-VIS detector set at 205 nm. The detector response was linear through the range of interest, 2-100 micrograms/ml.

Understanding the interplay between the molecular structure of the ionic liquid (IL) subunit, the resulting nanostructure and ion transport in polymerized ionic liquids (PILs) is necessary for the realization of high-performance solid-state electrolytes required in various advanced applications. Herein, we present a detailed structural characterization of a recently synthesized series of acrylate-based PIL homopolymers and networks with imidazolium cations and chloride anions with varying alkyl spacer and terminal group lengths designed for organic solid-state batteries based on X-ray scattering. The impact of the concentrations of both the crosslinker and added tetrabutylammonium chloride (TBACl) conducting salt on the structural characteristics is also investigated.

Technology-critical elements (TCEs) refer to the elements that play an important role in many emerging technologies and the production of advanced materials, and these include lanthanides, tungsten and vanadium. Actinides, Tl, and Pb, which also belong to TCEs, are abundantly used in power generation, industrial applications, and modern agricultural practices. The information on the influence of these elements on the aquatic environment and biota is still rather scarce.

Effect of Oral Posaconazole on Venetoclax Plasma Concentration and its Efficacy in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Recent Pat Anticancer Drug Discov

January 2025

Department of Hematology, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510282, P.R. China.

Background: BCL-2 was the first gene identified to have antiapoptotic effects, and venetoclax is an oral selective BCL-2 inhibitor, which has great potential in the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not candidates for intensive therapy. Notably, posaconazole, an oral antifungal drug, is also a strong factor that can affect blood venetoclax concentrations. To the best of our knowledge, the relationship between BCL-2 expression, posaconazole, and venetoclax, as well as their influence on treatment efficacy and the prognosis of patients with AML, has not been reported.
