To verify the feasibility of this phenomenon, a HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS method was developed in this study to determine the flavonoid compounds from three Saussurea species qualitatively and quantitatively. The LODs and LOQs ranged from 0.0263–0.1172 µg/mL and 0.0862–0.3867 µg/mL, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD × 100%) of the validation for the instrument precision was below 2.03%, while the RSD × 100% values for the method precision were below 5.73%, respectively. The recoveries ranged from 92.98–101.79%. These results further demonstrated that this method was precise and practical for determining flavonoid compounds from three Saussurea species. In this study, 14 kinds of constituents were simultaneously identified according to the ESI-MS data and previous studies. The contents of total flavonoids and eight components were determined with spectrophotometry and HPLC-DAD methods, respectively. The results demonstrated that the total flavonoids in S. involucrate had the hightest value and there were some differences in the content of eight flavonoids. For S. involucrate, a proportion of rutin, luteolin-7-O-glucoside, and hispidulin were detected. For S. laniceps, Arctiin, apigenin, and arctigenin were the major flavonoid compounds. For S. medusa, seven types of compounds were detected and arctiin presented the highest value, whereas apigenlin exhibited the lowest value. This comparative study may promote the differentiation in use of three kinds of snowlotus.

The method can simultaneously identify and quantify undeclared synthetic drugs metformin, pioglitazone, glipizide, and glimepiride in herbal as well as dietary supplements. The optimized mobile phase for the TLC system consists of cyclohexane:dichloromethane:1-propanol:saturated solution of ammonium acetate in acetic acid in the ratio of (7:5:2:2, v/v/v/v). The method is highly selective and sensitive for detecting chemicals in complex herbal molecules. Identification and quantification of drugs were performed using the densitometric method. The drugs were confirmed using triple quadrupole mass spectrometry through the MS interface. The screening of market preparations revealed the presence of metformin in two of eight products.

The first and second line treatment protocols for various stages of breast cancer in females rely on tamoxifen. Until now, the development of tamoxifen resistance is not entirely understood. In this study, an automated sequential injection capillary electrophoresis with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detector was developed for online levels monitoring of both lactate and pyruvate from the supernatant media of MCF-7 cells developing tamoxifen resistance. Changes in concentration of the two metabolites were simultaneously monitored from three model cell cultures and two control untreated cells. The electrophoretic separation was performed under reversed electroosmotic flow conditions. The system delivers high sample throughput at low sample consumption of 20 µL per analysis. The method is robust and achieved high sensitivity and resolution. Limits of detection were 8.0 and 17.0 nM and linear ranges were 0.15–5 and 0.01–1 mM with a correlation coefficient of 0.9951 and 0.9963 for lactate and pyruvate, respectively. Inter-run and intra-run accuracy were in the range of 95.37–107.02% with precision (RSD, %) of ≤9.84%. The method was completely validated and the data obtained were in agreement with results achieved using the lactate and pyruvate assay kits. The highly informative generated data revealed a significant increase in lactate and pyruvate production in the three tamoxifen resistant MCF-7 cells models compared to the two control cells starting from 5.8 hours and 6.8 hours culturing times, respectively. The increase in concentrations of both lactate and pyruvate were correlated with an increase in MCT1 and MCT4 genes expression.

Determining caffeine concentration using saliva in this population would be preferable as it is less invasive than plasma sampling, but a suitable method of analysis is required. This paper presents the development and validation of a rapid, efficient and reproducible stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method and extraction protocol for the quantification of caffeine present in saliva. The stability of extemporaneously prepared caffeine citrate solutions (at 20–25 °C) was determined, along with the stability of caffeine spiked saliva samples (at 20–25 and 2–8 °C), to ensure the suitability of the developed method in the analysis of clinical trial samples. Protein precipitation using acetonitrile ensured the complete removal of salivary proteins and resulted in extraction recovery of ≥95% for all samples. The HPLC assay following extraction was linear (R 2>0.99) over the range 0.3–50 µg/mL (lower limit of quantification 0.3 µg/mL). The accuracy of the quality control samples was 94–100% and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was <7% for all samples. Caffeine-spiked saliva samples were stable for three freeze-and-thaw cycles pre-extraction and up to 72 hr post-extraction. The extraction and HPLC methods described were thus suitable for the analysis of clinical trial samples from the Latte Dosage Trial. All caffeine solutions were physically and chemically stable, with concentrations at the end of the three-month test period being within 4% of the baseline concentrations, indicating appropriateness for use as clinical trial medications.
