A derivative spectrophotometric method was proposed for the simultaneous determination of clindamycin and tretinoin in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The measurement was achieved using the first and second derivative signals of clindamycin at (1D) 251 nm and (2D) 239 nm and tretinoin at (1D) 364 nm and (2D) 387 nm.The proposed method showed excellent linearity at both first and second derivative order in the range of 60-1200 and 1.25-25 μg/ml for clindamycin phosphate and tretinoin respectively. The within-day and between-day precision and accuracy was in acceptable range (CV<3.81%, error<3.20%). Good agreement between the found andadded concentrations indicates successful application of the proposed method for simultaneous determination of clindamycin and tretinoin in synthetic mixtures and pharmaceutical dosage form.

Antimicrobial resistance is a significant cause of mortality globally due to infections, a trend that is expected to continue to rise. As existing treatments fail and new drug discovery slows, the urgency to develop novel antimicrobial therapeutics grows stronger. One promising strategy involves targeting bacterial systems exclusive to pathogens, such as the transcription regulator protein GabR.

The tetrapyrrolic macrocycle as a scaffold for various chemical modifications provides broad opportunities for the preparation of complex multifunctional conjugates suitable for binary antitumor therapies. Typically, illumination with monochromatic light triggers the photochemical generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (photodynamic effect). However, more therapeutically valuable effects can be achieved upon photoactivation of tetrapyrrole derivatives.

Doping of carbon dots (CDs) with heteroatoms has garnered growing attention in recent years as a useful method of controlling their physicochemical properties. In this study, a new dual-mode sensor based on silver-doped CDs (AgCDs) derived from lignin was developed for fluorometric and spectrophotometric determination of valsartan (VAL). The analysis of AgCDs revealed a structure that closely resembled graphene oxide, with the successful doping of Ag.

Despite the growing interest in using natural compounds for disease prevention and treatment, (wild garlic), known for its therapeutic properties, has not been extensively studied for its chemical composition and biological activities. Therefore, this study aims to explore the in vitro antioxidant, antibacterial, and antitumor activities of extracts according to their functional phytochemical profile, while assessing whether ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) enhances bioactive properties in comparison to conventional maceration (CM). Both extracts were characterized by spectrophotometric methods and LC-ESI+-MS.

In the purification process of zinc hydrometallurgy, the spectra of copper and cobalt seriously overlap in the whole band and are interfered with by the spectra of zinc and nickel, which seriously affects the detection results of copper and cobalt in zinc solutions. Aiming to address the problems of low resolution, serious overlap, and narrow characteristic wavelengths, a novel spectrophotometric method for the robust detection of trace copper and cobalt is proposed. First, the Haar, Db4, Coif3, and Sym3 wavelets are used to carry out the second-order continuous wavelet transform on the spectral signals of copper and cobalt, which improves the resolution of copper and cobalt and eliminates the background interference caused by matrix zinc signals and reagents.
