A reversed phase liquid chromatographic (RPLC) method was developed to simultaneously detect and quantify creatinine, quinolinic acid, gentisic acid and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid in urine. These four bio-markers are present in relatively high concentrations in urine. Using a 5% methanol in water mobile phase with 0.6% acetic acid and a Zorbax C column, baseline resolution for all four biomarkers in synthetic urine was achieved. Better resolution was obtained for the separation of these four compounds when water rich mobile phases were used. Detection of the four biomarkers in urine using the proposed RPLC method is limited by background from the urine matrix for the later eluting compounds and from the dead marker for earlier eluting compounds.

Antibacterial screening of endophytic fungi from Salacia intermedia identified Diaporthe longicolla as a potent strain exhibiting good activity against multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with an MIC of 39.1 µg/mL. Scale-up fermentation and chromatographic purification of this strain yielded three known compounds, which were cytochalasin J (1), cytochalasin H (2), and dicerandrol C (3), as identified by liquid chromatography - high mass resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

Background: Developing analytical methods for Traditional Medicine products by liquid chromatography is challenging due to their chemical complexity and the lack of analytical standards for numerous, unidentified constituents. Regulatory agencies recommend chromatographic fingerprint analysis for quality evaluation, relying on peak detection to ensure resolution. Conventional modelling struggles to optimise experimental conditions for such complex samples.

Background: The demand for sustainable energy solutions has increased interest in natural microalgal dyes as photosensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). This study addresses the critical issue of maximizing dye integrity and yield during extraction, particularly the degradation that occurs at temperatures above 60 °C. Our investigation of dye extraction from Asterarcys quadricellulare and Scenedesmus sp.

Background: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for 15% of all lung cancers and presents early metastasis and poor prognosis. Chemotherapy with cisplatin (CDDP) remains one of the standards of care in first-line treatment. However, the emergence of acquired resistance to CDDP causes disease progression and cancer recurrence.
