The development strategy of a biological assay that is able to measure potency accurately and precisely needs to be based on both regulatory and business requirements. Regulatory expectations on potency tests are detailed in international guidelines and constitute a legal requirement for the registration of the drug in the region of submission. However, the development and implementation of biological assays are known to be expensive and time-consuming. This fact opens a debate on how to balance the companies’ business needs with the requests for Mode of Action (MoA)-mimicking cell-based assays to determine the potency of increasingly complex biopharmaceuticals. This article overviews the current regulatory requirements for the registration of new biological drugs in USA, Europe and Japan giving a focused perspective on bioassay development strategies.","PeriodicalId":15014,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Bioanalysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89314088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As they provide a minimally invasive tumor detection, liquid biopsies allow early diagnosis and serial assessments of tumor progression. Discovery and use of circulating tumor markers circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), circulating tumor cells (CTC), and exosomes have largely expanded the possibility of early diagnosis of cancer, patient stratification, as well as developing a personalized treatment. Based on these circulomes, liquid biopsies can be developed, but each type of liquid biopsies has its own merits and limitations. While ctDNA-based methods represent the most advanced techniques, sensitivity improvement is expected given the rarity of ctDNA in circulation. As intact cancer cells, CTC provide information on cancer cells. However, current CTC capturing procedures are still lack of efficiency. Exosomes are abundant, but they are highly heterogeneous and there is a lack of specific markers for identification. Future efforts are needed to improve operational parameters and clinical performance of each method. Prior to a broad use in clinical settings, it is crucial to standardize the procedure for the specific liquid biopsy method and validate the test with adequate specificity and sensitivity for clinical applications.","PeriodicalId":15014,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Bioanalysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86783902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The degradation of resin composite restorations after aging and/or storage in different solutions is associated with leaching monomers, like bisphenol Aglycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA), triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA), Urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA), Bisphenol A (BPA), which are potentially leading to toxicity and mutagenicity effects or cause allergic reactions. These monomers may cause health issues to patients, therefore their determination both in-vitro and in biological fluids e.g. saliva, blood serum/plasma and urine is significant. Moreover, analytical methods are necessary to investigate the rate of elution, as well as the conditions that mainly affect the mechanism of short-term and long-term release of monomers from dental composites. In this review article we present some of the techniques and methods used to determine the short-term and long-term release of these monomers from modern dental materials and prove that analytical chemistry and especially bioanalysis can be a powerful tool in dentistry","PeriodicalId":15014,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Bioanalysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83464496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
