In this study, a sensitive, selective and reproducible liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for the simultaneous determination of 1,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (1,5-DCQA) and its active metabolites, 1-caffeoyl-5-feruoylquinic acid and 1,5-O-diferuoylquinic acid, in human plasma, using puerarin as internal standard, was developed and validated. Analytes were extracted from plasma samples by liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate, separated on a C(18) reversed-phase column with water containing 5 mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile as the mobile phase and detected by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in negative selected reaction monitoring mode. The accuracy and precision of the method were acceptable and linearity was good over the range 1-200 ng/mL for each analyte. In addition, the selectivity, extraction recovery and matrix effect were satisfactory too. The validated LC-MS/MS method was successfully applied to phase II clinical pharmacokinetic study of 1,5-DCQA in patients.

Plasma proteomic technologies are rapidly evolving and of critical importance to the field of biomedical research. Here we report a technical evaluation of six notable plasma proteomic technologies - unenriched (Neat), Acid depletion, PreOmics ENRICHplus, Mag-Net, Seer Proteograph XT, Olink Explore HT. The methods were compared on proteomic depth, reproducibility, linearity, tolerance to lipid interference, and limit of detection/quantification.

Background: Endogenous sex hormones in postmenopausal women have been associated with risk of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to determine the association between endogenous sex hormones and the revised Framingham Stroke Risk Profile (rFSRP) in postmenopausal women.
Methods: This is an observational cross-sectional study on the Vara-Skövde cohort, a Swedish population-based study for longitudinal surveillance of the development and progress of type 2 diabetes and hypertension.

Numerous unregulated organic compounds (UOCs) including pharmaceuticals, opioids, and personal care products (PCPs) end up in wastewater. UOC presence in biosolids (a wastewater treatment byproduct), which are applied to soil for different reasons raises environmental and health risk concerns. In this study, two multi-class extraction methods were developed and validated to target 111 UOCs from 8 different major families simultaneously in biosolids and biosolids-impacted soil.

The recent unauthorization of antiviral drugs in food-producing animals according to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/1644 have increased the need for food control laboratories to develop analytical methods and perform official controls. In this work, a simple and fast analytical methodology was developed for the simultaneous determination of 21 antiviral drugs in chicken muscle and liver by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Chromatographic separation was achieved by an HILIC BEH amide column; followed by detection with a electrospray ionization source in positive and negative modes.
