Strain RT1 was isolated from root nodules of Lens culinaris (a lentil) and characterized as Rhizobium etli (a Gram-negative soil-borne bacterium) by 16S rDNA sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. The signaling molecules produced by R. etli (RT1) were detected and identified by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. The most abundant and biologically active N-acyl...

Steric vs hydrogen-bonding atropisomerization control of configurationally stable analogues of the biaryl natural product allocolchicine is described. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the C8 hydroxy group and the C7 oxygen functionality in (aR,7R)-diastereomer II of 2 and 4 leads to its thermodynamic stabilization relative to the opposite diastereomer (aR,7S)-I, which is manifested by th...

Abstract Background The objective of the work carried out was to assess toxicity degradation products (DPs) for drug felbamate. Stress studies were performed in condition specified international council harmonization (ICH) guideline Q1A (R2). Results degraded under alkaline stress conditions generate two (DPs). They separated on a Phenomenex C8 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm); mobile phase compo...

BACKGROUND Medium Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase (MCAD) Deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder of fatty acid oxidation, with potential fatal outcome. MCAD deficiency is diagnosed by acylcarnitine analysis on newborn screening blood spot cards by tandem mass spectrometry. Early diagnosis of MCAD and presymptomatic treatment can potentially reduce morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVES To eva...

To improve the selectivity of challenging separations, a possible solution is modulation stationary phase through serial coupling different columns having chemistries. Such an approach interesting when each column used for tandem setup results in distinct critical peak pairs. For impurity profiling methods, gradient elution mode preferred. However, mode, order coupled may result selectivities. ...

Phenoxyl radicals can covalently attach to the C8-site of 2′-deoxyguanosine (dG) to generate oxygen-linked biaryl ether C8-dG adducts. To determine the mutagenicity of an O-linked C8dG adduct, C8-phenoxy-dG (PhOdG) was incorporated into the G3 position (X) of the NarI recognition sequence within a 22-mer oligonucleotide template (5′-CTCGGCX-CCATCCCTTACGAGC, where X = dG, or PhOdG) using solid-p...

Two highly sensitive methods for the determination of genotoxic alkyl methane sulfonates (AMSs) and alkyl paratoluene sulfonates (APTSs) in lamivudine using hyphenated techniques have been presented. AMSs were determined by GC-MS method using GSBP-INOWAX (30 m×0.25 mm×0.25 μm) column. Temperature program was set by maintaining at 100 °C initially for 3 min, then rised to 220 °C at the rate of 1...

Two methods for the quantitative analysis of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) in urine were compared. The first was an high-performance liquid chromatography method using a C8 column with ion suppression and diode array detection. The urine extracts were first purified by solid-phase extraction (SPE) on silica capillary columns. The detection...
