The aim of the present study was to develop suitable and reliable method for quantification three of the most worldwide used therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) -bevazizumab (BVZ), infliximab (INF) and trastuzumab (TTZ)- to be used in long-term stability studies. Reverse phase (RP) was selected by its greater sensibility and reproducibility comparing with other chromatographic modes. Then a high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (RP)HPLC/DAD method was checked. Since the three mAbs represent the active ingredient in the medicines in which they are formulated, the selected method was validated for each one in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for pharmaceuticals for human use. Then method was validated in terms of linearity, accuracy, precision, (repeatability, intermediate precision) specificity (by forced degradation studies), robustness and system suitability. Spectral peak purity analysis strategy was used to test mAb degradations. Comparative study of the results indicated similar behavior for the three mAbs. Forced degradation studies also provided deep knowledge of these important bio-macromolecules. At last the method was successfully used to quantify BVZ, INF and TTZ in long-term stability studies performed under hospital conditions of use and they showed great stability regarding quantification during the time of the study.

We propose and prioritize important outcome domains that should be considered for future research investigating long-term outcomes (LTO) after new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE). The study was led by the international NORSE Institute LTO Working Group. First, literature describing the LTO of NORSE survivors was identified using a PubMed search and summarized to identify knowledge gaps.

An innovative magnetic immunoassay was developed for the voltammetric detection of carbohydrate antigen-125 (CA-125) on a home-made microfluidic device including a multisyringe pump, selection valve and magneto-controlled detection cell. Two kinds of biofunctionalized nanostructures including anti-CA-125 capture antibody-conjugated magnetic beads and anti-CA-125 detection antibody-labeled silver-polypyrrole (Ag-PPy) nanohybrids were utilized for a sandwiched immunoreaction in the presence of CA-125. With the help of an external magnet, the formed magnetic immunocomplexes were attached to the sensing interface to activate the electrical contact between Ag-PPy nanohybrids and the base electrode, thus resulting in the switching on of the sensor circuit for the generation of voltammetric signals thanks to electroactive Ag-PPy nanohybrids.

Freeze drying is one of the common methods to extend the long-term stability of biologicals. Biological products in solid form have the advantages of convenient transportation and stable long-term storage. However, long reconstitution time and extensive visible bubbles are frequently generated during the reconstitution process for many freeze-dried protein formulations, which can potentially affect the management efficiency of staff, patient compliance, and product quality.

Nanobiohybrids for solar-driven methanogenesis present a promising solution to the global energy crisis. However, conventional semiconductor-based nanobiohybrids face challenges such as limited tunability and poor biocompatibility, leading to undesirable spontaneous electron and proton transfer that compromise their structural stability and CH4 selectivity. Herein, we introduced eutectic gallium-indium alloys (EGaIn), featuring a self-limiting surface oxide layer surrounding the liquid metal core after sonication, integrated with Methanosarcina barkeri (M.
