Attesting optimal drug concentrations in biological fluids is crucial to ensure precise dosage adjustment, to guarantee therapy adherence, and to manage side effects in chemotherapy. Accurate drug determination relies on liquid chromatography and advanced detectors, with sample preparation playing a pivotal role, especially in complex matrices such as biological fluids. This study introduces a multiphase electroextraction (MPEE) of doxorubicin (DOX) in saliva by utilizing a paper point, followed by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to diode array detection.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has emerged as a valuable tool for understanding multiphasic and compartmentalized systems, which have crucial wide-ranging applications across diverse fields. However, ECL reactions are limited to the vicinity of the electrode surface due to spatial constraints of electron transfer and the short lifetime of radical species, making ECL emission in bulk multiphasic solution challenging. To address this limitation, we propose a novel bipolar electrochemistry (BPE) approach for wireless dual-color ECL emission at the water/organic (w/o) interface.

Background: Time-resolved angiography with interleaved stochastic trajectories (TWIST) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) may obscure smaller vessels and is highly susceptibility to motion artifacts, potentially reducing endoleak detection accuracy after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR). The novel golden-angle radial sparse parallel (GRASP) sequence enhances spatial and temporal resolution with continuous, motion-robust datasets, showing promise for accurate endoleak detection post-EVAR. This study aimed to compare the diagnostic effectiveness of contrast-enhanced compressed-sensing radial GRASP-volume interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) sequence with standard contrast-enhanced dynamic TWIST-VIBE sequence in patients with inconclusive computed tomography angiography (CTA) findings regarding endoleak after EVAR.

Purposes: To enhance the functional capability of MRI, this study aims to develop a novel MR elastography (MRE) sequence that achieves rapid acquisition without distortion artifacts.

Methods: A displacement-encoded stimulated echo (DENSE) with multiphase acquisition scheme was used to capture wave images. A center-out golden-angle stack-of-stars sampling pattern was introduced for improved SNR and data incoherence.

Biomolecular condensates are key features of intracellular compartmentalization. As the most prominent nuclear condensate in eukaryotes, the nucleolus is a layered multiphase liquid-like structure and the site of ribosome biogenesis. In the nucleolus, ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are transcribed and processed, undergoing multiple maturation steps that ultimately result in formation of the ribosomal small subunit (SSU) and large subunit (LSU).
