Plasma concentrations of isepamicin, a new aminoglycoside antibiotic, were determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA), microbiological assay (MA), and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in healthy volunteers after administration of 7.5 mg/kg intramuscular dosages once daily for 10 days. Plasma samples were collected on days 1, 7, and 10. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 0.1 microg/ml for HPLC and RIA and 0.5 microg/ml for MA. The HPLC and RIA yielded superimposable plasma concentration-time curves, whereas the plasma concentrations obtained with MA appeared to be 20% to 30% lower. Regression analysis indicated good correlations among the three assays, with coefficients of correlation measuring 0.935 to 0.960 for RIA compared with HPLC, 0.925 to 0.945 for MA compared with HPLC, and 0.920 to 0.945 for RIA compared with MA.

Background: Ginseng Berry Concentrate (GBC) enhances exercise capacity in mice, but the effects of its key component, ginsenoside Re (G-Re), on aging and mitochondrial function are not well understood. This study investigates the impact of G-Re on mitophagy and its potential to promote healthy aging.
Methods: Experiments in C2C12 myocytes and HeLa-mitoKeima-PARKIN cells assessed GBC and G-Re's effects on mitophagy, supported by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis.

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies and a leading cause of death among women worldwide. Among its subtypes, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) poses significant clinical challenges due to its aggressive behavior and limited treatment options. This study aimed to investigate the effects of doxorubicin (DOX) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) as monotherapies and in combination using an established MDA-MB-231 xenograft model in female BALB/C nude mice employing advanced metabolomics analysis to identify molecular alterations induced by these treatments.

Infrared (IR) photodetectors play an important role in many fields such as industry, medicine, security, Achieving high response and maintaining stability in the device performance while reducing materials cost are required for the practical use of optical sensors. This study presents the development of a low-cost but high-performance IR photodetector based on a hybridization of up-conversion microparticles of NaYF:Tm,Yb (UCMPs) and reduced graphene oxide material (RGO). In this combination, UCMPs play the role of absorbing photons from 980 nm excitation light, generating electron-hole pairs, which are useful for sensing applications.

The valid method was developed for analyzing empagliflozin in serum/plasma/urine using a molecularly imprinted ghost polymer-solid-phase extraction approach (MISPE) with liquid chromatographic methodology. Methacrylic acid (MAA) was used as the monomer, 2,2 azobis isobutyronitrile as the initiator and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linker in the free radical polymerization procedure. Empagliflozin was loaded onto the polymer and eluted with 1 mL of a 9:1 MeOH:acetic acid solution.
