This present study is to develop an HPLC method for simultaneous determination of eight hydroxyl naphthoquinones, shikonin, β-hydroxy-isovalerylshikonin, acetylshikonin, β-acetoxy-isovalerylshikonin, deoxyshikonin, isobutyrylshikonin, β,β'-dimethylacrylshikonin and isovalerylshikonin. The eight constituents were measured on a Waters Xbridge C18 column (4.6 mm×250 mm，5 μm) with isocratic elution of acetonitrile-0.05% formic acid solution (70∶30) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL•min⁻¹. The detection wavelength was 275 nm and the column temperature was 30 ℃. The results of content determination indicated that significant differences of the eight compounds exist in every part of Arnebia euchroma，in which the highest part was the root bark, followed with the root, then the stem residues. The content of the xylem of root and aerial part was lower than the above parts. The results provided scientific basis for the medicinal parts of A. euchroma.

Recently, researchers have used silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) coupled with humic acid (HA) as antimicrobial agents. Herein, AgNPs were prepared and coupled with humic acid for their antimicrobial activities. The as-prepared AgNPs coupled with humic acid (HA) were characterized by an atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), zeta potential, zeta sizer, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and UV-VIS spectrophotometer.

Hydroxylation, an extensive post-translational modification on proline, is critical for the modulation of protein structures, further dominating their functions in life systems. However, current mass spectrometry-based identification, could hardly distinguish hydroxylation from neighboring oxidation due to the same mass shifts, as well as challenges posed by low abundance and exogenous oxidation during sample preparation. To address these, an engineered nanopore was designed, capable of discriminating single hydroxyl group, to achieve the identification of proline hydroxylation on individual native peptides directly in the mixture.

Heliotropium indicum is well-known for its diverse medicinal properties, traditionally utilized to treat ailments such as diabetes, obesity, bacterial infections, inflammation, and diarrhea. This study aims to explore the anti-inflammatory effects of the extract using in vitro methods and to assess its drug-likeness potential using docking, PASS and ADME. Fractionations of crude methanol extract (CME) were undertaken in n-hexane (NHF), chloroform (CHF), and ethyl acetate (EAF).

Sewer overflows are a potential source of emerging contaminants to urban waters, posing a threat to ecosystems and human health. Herein, the performance and mechanism of ferrate(Ⅵ) (Fe(Ⅵ))/peroxymonosulfate (PMS), Fe(Ⅵ)/peroxydisulfate (PDS), and Fe(Ⅵ)/percarbonate (SPC) for the degradation of ofloxacin (OFL) in overflows were comparatively investigated. These systems achieved efficient degradation of OFL and the removal of conventional pollutants.
