A new and fast sample preparation technique based on two-phase hollow fiber liquid phase microextraction (HF-LPME) with magnetofluid was developed to quantitate and determine the four phenylethanoid glycosides (PhGs) (Echinacoside, Tubuloside B, Acteoside and Isoacteoside) in plasma after oral administration of Cistanche salsa extract. Analysis was accomplished by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) with ultraviolet detection. Parameters that affect the HF-LPME processes, such as the content of magnetic powder, the solvent type, salt content, stirring speed, extraction time and hollow fiber length, were investigated and optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the preconcentration factors for PhGs were higher than 625. The calibration curve for PhGs was linear in the range of 0.1-100ngmL(-1) with correlation coefficients greater than 0.9996. The intra-day and inter-day precision (RSD) were below 8.74% and the limits of detection (LOD) for the four PhGs were 8-15pgmL(-1) (S/N=3). The validated method was successfully applied to separate and determine the four PhGs in rat plasma after oral administration of C. salsa extract.

Sepsis is an underappreciated yet severe threat to human life, marked by organ dysfunction and high mortality resulting from disordered inflammatory responses to blood infection. Unfortunately, no specific drugs are available for effective sepsis treatment. As a pivotal biomarker for sepsis, lactate levels are closely related to vascular permeability and sepsis-associated mortality.

This paper presents a compact all-fiber multicomponent gas Raman probe using a dual-fiber architecture within a platinum-coated capillary. The probe eliminates the need for conventional optical components like filters and dichroic mirrors by strategically employing metal coating on the excitation fiber's surface to suppress interference signals. A detailed analysis of the silica Raman signal and fluorescence propagation within the system facilitated this design.

Zwitterionic hydrogels have emerged as a highly promising class of biomaterials, attracting considerable attention due to their unique properties and diverse biomedical applications. Zwitterionic moieties, with their balanced positive and negative charges, endow hydrogels with exceptional hydration, resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption, and low immunogenicity due to their distinctive molecular structure. These properties facilitate various biomedical applications, such as medical device coatings, tissue engineering, drug delivery, and biosensing.

Background: Mycobacterium abscessus (MABS) causes difficult-to-treat pulmonary and extra-pulmonary infections. A combination therapy comprising amikacin, cefoxitin, and a macrolide agent is recommended, but its antimicrobial activity and clinical efficacy is uncertain. Inducible resistance to macrolides (macrolides-iR) has been associated with poor clinical response in pulmonary infections, whilst for extra-pulmonary infections data are scarce.

Polyimide (PI)-based gas separation membranes are of great interest in the field of H purification owing to their good thermal stability, chemical stability, and mechanical properties. Among polyimide-based membranes, intrinsically microporous polyimides are easily soluble in common organic solvents, showing great potential for fabricating hollow fiber gas separation membranes. However, based on the solution-diffusion model, improving the free volume or the movability of polymer chains can improve gas permeability, but would result in poor thermal stability.
