Abstract

This paper reports a practical approach for the stability testing of 37 veterinary drugs in stock standard solutions stored at -20°C for 1-3 years and the study of expiry date extension of 7 expired reference standard materials stored at 4°C. Stored stock solutions were compared versus freshly prepared stock solutions and concentrations determined using LC-MS/MS. The validity of expired reference materials was tested by new valid reference materials. LC-MS/MS method and parameters were optimised to get the maximum signal stability of the analytes. Statistical analysis was developed and performed to evaluate the stability results according to the acceptability criteria of 10% set by the European Commission guidance document SANTE/11813/2017. The stability of most of the stock solutions of the following veterinary drug families: β-agonists, illegal dyes, inhibitors, macrolides, penicillins, quinolones, sulfonamides and tetracyclines ranged from 12 to 36 months. β-Agonist compounds have the maximum stability period of 36 months while penicillin's stock solution in methanol showed the least stability. The results of testing the expiry date extension of reference standard materials demonstrated that there was no any deterioration of...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
