Dipines are a type of important antihypertensive drug as L-calcium channel blockers, whose core skeleton is the 1,4-dihydropyridine structure. Since the dihydropyridine ring is a key structural factor for biological activity, the thermodynamics of the aromatization dihydropyridine ring is a significant feature parameter for understanding the mechanism and pathways of dipine metabolism in vivo. Herein, 4-substituted-phenyl-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-diethyl-formate-1,4-dihydropyridines are refined as the structurally closest dipine models to investigate the thermodynamic potential of dipine oxidative metabolism. In this work, the thermodynamic cards of dipine models' aromatization on 21 potential elementary steps in acetonitrile have been established. Based on the thermodynamic cards, the thermodynamic properties of dipine models and related intermediates acting as electrons, hydrides, hydrogen atoms, protons, and two hydrogen ions (atoms) donors are discussed. Moreover, the thermodynamic cards are applied to evaluate the redox properties, and judge or reveal the possible oxidative mechanism of dipine models.

Objective: To establish a method for preserving viral nucleic acids in plasma using a blood collection card based on the dry spot method, to predict the duration of nucleic acid preservation by establishing the Arrhenius equation, and to demonstrate the feasibility of this preservation method for the re-testing of nucleic acids in blood samples retained by blood banks.
Methods: Plasma samples positive for HBV, HCV, and HIV nucleic acids were prepared into preservation cards in the form of dry plasma spots for storage. The prepared preservation cards were placed under accelerated storage conditions at 37, 45, 50, and 55 ℃.

The Abbott i-STAT and Siemens Healthineers epoc are commonly used in the provision of care during emergency medical services calls and other settings. Maintaining these systems within manufacturer's temperature claims in these settings poses challenges across the world. This review summarizes solutions that have been reported in the peer-reviewed literature and proposes additional strategies to further address these challenges.

In this work, the p values of 69 polar alkanes (YH) in acetonitrile were computed using the method developed by Luo and Zhang in 2020, and representative 69 thermodynamic network cards on 22 elementary steps of YH and related polar alkenes (Y) releasing or accepting H were naturally established. Potential electron reductants (YH), hydride reductants (YH), antioxidants (YH and YH), and hydrogen molecule reductants (YH) are unexpectedly discovered according to thermodynamic network cards. It is also found that there are great differences between YH and common hydrogen molecule reductants (XH), such as Hantzsch ester (HEH), benzothiazoline (BTH), and dihydro-phenanthridine (PH), releasing two hydrogen ions to unsaturated compounds.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains a global health problem, detected only in the early stages by molecular tests. Molecular tests detect HCV RNA, which is very prone to degradation by ribonucleases, reason why blood samples must be transported and stored at - 20 °C, or even - 70 °C for long-term storage. Flinders Technology Associates (FTA) cards are a useful sampling collecting device for dry blood spot (DBS) storage, especially for low and middle-income countries (LMIC).
