Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are emerging nucleic acid delivery systems in the development of mRNA therapeutics such as the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccines. However, a suitable analytical method for evaluating the encapsulation efficiency (EE) of the LNPs is required to ensure drug efficacy, as current analytical methods exhibit throughput issues and require long analysis times. Hence, we developed and validated an anion-exchange HPLC method using Analytical Quality by Design. Three critical method parameters (CMPs) were identified using risk assessment and Design of Experiments: column temperature, flow rate, and sodium perchlorate concentration. The CMPs were optimized using Face-Centered Central Composite Design. The discriminating power of the optimized HPLC method and RiboGreen assay was comparable. The main advantage of this method is that LNPs can be directly injected into the HPLC system without bursting the LNPs loaded with encapsulated poly(A). The optimized HPLC method was validated as robust, high-throughput, and sufficiently sensitive according to the ICH Q2 guidelines. We believe our findings could promote efficient LNPs-based drug development.

Introduction: This study evaluated the relationship between total plasma and free kidney concentrations of amphotericin B (AmB) in healthy and -infected Wistar rats using microdialysis and has the potential to significantly impact future research in this field and promote the development of antifungal drugs. The findings of this study, which show that plasma levels are a good predictor for AmB kidney concentrations and can be used to optimize its dosing regimen, underscore the importance of this research.
Methods: Microdialysis probe recovery rates were determined by dialysis and retrodialysis , as well as by retrodialysis .

Background: The objective of the present study is to examine the total phenolic and flavonoid content of an ethanol extract of and to evaluate its phytochemical properties, antioxidant activity, and capacity to protect DNA from damage. This pharmaceutical/food resource mushroom may serve as a novel substitute functional food for health-conscious consumers, given its promising source of phenolics and flavonoids.
Methods: ethanol extract (SEE) was evaluated for total phenolic and flavonoid contents, while UPLC-MS analysis was used for terpenoids, phenylpropanoid, flavonoids, steroidal, phenols identification, and function prediction.

Synthetic antidiabetic drugs are often associated with various adverse side effects, including hypoglycemia, nausea, gastrointestinal disturbances, headaches, and even liver damage. In contrast, plant-derived natural antidiabetic bioactive compounds typically exhibit lower toxicity and fewer side effects and have been reported to aid effectively in diabetes management. These plant extracts regulate diabetes by restoring pancreatic function, enhancing insulin secretion, inhibiting intestinal glucose absorption, and facilitating insulin dependent metabolism.

Phenobarbital is a common antiseizure medication that has a relatively narrow therapeutic window. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a helpful tool to guide dose adjustments for phenobarbital and avoid its toxicity. We investigated the agreement among 3 methods of quantifying phenobarbital in canine plasma: high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), point-of-care (POC) testing, and the FDA-approved immunoassay analyzer.
