Groups of Beagle dogs and Squirrel monkeys were exposed to aerosols of pirbuterol acetate, a new bronchodilator at doses of 0, 200, 400 and 800 micrograms of pirbuterol/kg body weight daily for 6 months. Each group consisted of 4 dogs or 6 monkeys per sex. Dogs were exposed by face mask and monkeys were exposed by head only in a manifold. Plasma drug concentrations indicated that expected levels of drug exposure were achieved in both species. No significant alterations were revealed in physical appearance and body weights, hematological and blood biochemical analyses, urinalyses, ophthalmoscopy, assessment of cardiovascular status, pulmonary function or gross and histopathology. Examination of the respiratory tract showed no morphological changes that could be attributed to pirbuterol acetate inhalation.

Article Synopsis
- - Postbiotics may serve as a viable alternative to probiotics in managing food allergies, showing effectiveness in alleviating symptoms related to whey protein-induced allergies in rats.
- - The research indicated that postbiotics not only reduced levels of immune markers like serum IgE and mMCP-1, but also helped in balancing Th1 and Th2 cell responses in both serum and spleen.
- - Analysis revealed that postbiotics led to significant changes in intestinal flora and increased various beneficial metabolites, which correlated negatively with inflammatory immune responses, suggesting their role in improving gut health and reducing allergic reactions.

The authors of this paper conducted a comparative metabolomic analysis of (OS), providing the metabolic profiles of the stroma (OSBSz) and sclerotia (OSBSh) of OS by widely targeted metabolomics and untargeted metabolomics. The results showed that 778 and 1449 metabolites were identified by the widely targeted metabolomics and untargeted metabolomics approaches, respectively. The metabolites in OSBSz and OSBSh are significantly differentiated; 71 and 96 differentially expressed metabolites were identified by the widely targeted metabolomics and untargeted metabolomics approaches, respectively.

In this study, we first prepared a selective monoclonal antibody against 12 beta (2)-adrenergic agonists (Salbutamol, Clenbuterol, Brombuterol, Clenpenterol, Mabuterol, Carbuterol, Cimbuterol, Mapenterol, Pirbuterol, Terbutaline, Cimaterol, and Clenproperol). Then three haptens were designed and derived, among which, hapten used the amino group of the salbutamol analog to derive a carboxyl group containing a spacer, which is unique to this study. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC) values were 0.
