Objective: To develop a rapid method for analysing polyphenols, which are potentially active antioxidants against neonatal oxidative stress, from small human milk (HM) volumes.
Methods: Acid and alkaline extractions were compared using two dyes: Folin-Ciocalteu and Fast Blue BB. Linearity, sensitivity, recovery percentage, polyphenol content, precision, and stability were assessed in 14 HM samples and compared using the Kruskal-Wallis H test (p<0.

The role of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of valaciclovir (VA)/aciclovir (A) and valganciclovir/ganciclovir (VG/G) in critically ill patients is still a matter of debate. More data on the dose-concentration relationship might therefore be useful, especially in pediatrics where clinical practice is not adequately supported by robust PK studies. We developed and validated a new liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) micro-method to simultaneously quantify A and G from plasma and dried plasma spots (DPS).

Background: Current algorithm for Congenital Chagas Disease (cCD) diagnosis is unsatisfactory due to low sensitivity of the parasitological methods. Moreover, loss to follow-up precludes final serodiagnosis after nine months of life in many cases. A duplex TaqMan qPCR kit for Trypanosoma cruzi DNA amplification was prospectively evaluated in umbilical cord (UCB) and peripheral venous blood (PVB) of infants born to CD mothers at endemic and non-endemic sites of Argentina.

Aim: Cinitapride (CIN) is a benzamide-derived molecule used for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux and dyspepsia. Its pharmacokinetics are controversial due to the use of supratherapeutic doses and the lack of sensitive methodology. Therefore, a sensitive and accurate micromethod was developed for its quantitation in human plasma.
