The manufacture-characteristic impurity profile of nifedipine drug substance was studied by HPLC and on-line LC/MS coupling. Using a new gradient HPLC procedure and MS detection, spectroscopic evidences for the chemical structure of some previously unknown minor impurities (all under 0.1%) were obtained.

Groundwater arsenic (As), contamination is a significant issue worldwide including China and Pakistan, particularly in canal command areas. In this study, 131 groundwater samples were collected, and three machine learning models [Random Forest (RF), Logistic Regression (LR), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN)] were employed to predict As concentration. Descriptive statistics helped to conclude that all of the samples were inside the permitted limit of WHO for pH, Ca, Mg, Turbidity, Cl, K, Na, SO, NO, F and beyond limit of WHO for EC, HCO, TDS, and As.

Tattooing is a popular form of body art that has evolved from ancient times into being part of modern society. The understanding of biotransformation processes of coloring tattoo pigments in human skin is limited although skin reactions to tattoos with unknown culprits occur. Electrochemistry coupled to mass spectrometry (EC-MS) has widely been used as a tool for a purely instrumental approach to simulating the enzymatic biotransformation of xenobiotics.

Over 80% of biologic drugs, and 90% of vaccines, require temperature-controlled conditions throughout the supply chain to minimize thermal inactivation and contamination. This cold chain is costly, requires stringent oversight, and is impractical in remote environments. Here, we report chemical dispersants that non-covalently solvate proteins within fluorous liquids to alter their thermodynamic equilibrium and reduce conformational flexibility.

Oligonucleotides are currently one of the most rapidly advancing classes of therapeutic modalities. Understanding critical quality attributes, such as the impurity profile, stability, potential metabolites, and sequence conformity, is the key to their ultimate success. To obtain the information presented above, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is often employed.

Small molecules and antibodies have dominated the pharmaceutical landscape for decades. However, limitations associated with therapeutic targets deemed "undruggable" and progress in biology and chemistry have led to the blossoming of drug modalities and therapeutic approaches. In 2023, a high number of 9 oligonucleotide and peptide products were approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), accounting for 16% of all drugs approved.
