Applying green analytical chemistry for development and validation of RP-HPLC stability indicating assay method for estimation of fenoverine in bulk and dosage form using quality by design approach

A green and robust reverse-phase liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of fenoverine (FEN), by applying combined principles of green analytical chemistry and quality by design approaches on a Spherisorb C18 column (150?×?4.6?mm, 3?µm) with UV detection at 262?nm. A two level fractional factorial design (2^^7-3) Res IV was used for screening of influential chromatographic factors. The critical method parameters actively affecting critical quality attributes (CQAs) were identified and further optimized using Box–Behnken design. The predicted optimum assay conditions comprised of methanol and ammonium acetate buffer 20?mM, in an extent of 81:19% v/v individually having a flow rate of 1.0?mL/min with a column oven temperature of 33°C. The drug was stressed in hydrolytic, oxidative, reductive, thermal, and photolytic conditions. The developed method was validated successfully. The detector response was linear in the concentration of 0.5–160?µg/mL with a limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) as 0.1 and 0.3?µg/mL, respectively. The % recovery was found to be 99.7%. The analytical method volume intensity value for developed method was 45?mL and the environment assessment tool (EAT) score was 41.07. The method is simple, environmentally benign, rapid, and robust for the determination of FEN in bulk and in its dosage form.

Aligned Poly(ε‐caprolactone) Nanofibers Guide the Orientation and Migration of Human Pluripotent Stem Cell‐Derived Neurons,Astrocytes, and Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells In Vitro

Stem cell transplantations for spinal cord injury (SCI) have been studied extensively for the past decade in order to replace the damaged tissue with human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)‐derived neural cells. Transplanted cells may, however, benefit from supporting and guiding structures or scaffolds in order to remain viable and integrate into the host tissue. Biomaterials can be used as supporting scaffolds, as they mimic the characteristics of the natural cellular environment. In this study, hPSC‐derived neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) are cultured on aligned poly(ε‐caprolactone) nanofiber platforms, which guide cell orientation to resemble that of spinal cord in vivo. All cell types are shown to efficiently spread over the nanofiber platform and orient according to the fiber alignment. Human neurons and astrocytes require extracellular matrix molecule coating for the nanofibers, but OPCs grow on nanofibers without additional treatment. Furthermore, the nanofiber platform is combined with a 3D hydrogel scaffold with controlled thickness, and nanofiber‐mediated orientation of hPSC‐derived neurons is also demonstrated in a 3D environment. In this work, clinically relevant materials and substrates for nanofibers, fiber coatings, and hydrogel scaffolds are used and combined with cells suitable for developing functional cell grafts for SCI repair.

Improved operator comfort and off-road capability through pendulum arm technology

The Nordic forest industry requires just-in-time wood deliveries. Operations must continue regardless of season, weather and terrain. Soil compaction and deep ruts must be avoided while providing high performance and a reasonable working environment for operators.The Xt28 pendulum arm forwarder is a full-size concept forwarder with six hydrostatic propelled wheels on pendulum arms built on a three-piece frame connected with two articulation joints. The Xt28 concept machine was tested according to Skogforsk standard machine tests. Rut depth test focused on soil interaction where rut depth was measured related to number of passes. Machine dynamics were measured using standardized test track with focus on operator comfort.The project proved the potential of pendulum arm technology in off-road transportation. Automatic pendulum arm levelling, equalized ground pressure between wheels and improved operator comfort through reducing adverse vibrations and roll angles, simultaneously reducing dynamic forces transferred to the forest floor. Pendulum arm technology improves travel speed in adverse terrain, providing unparalleled side slope capability and enhanced productivity.     

Enzyme digestion of entrapped single-DNA molecules in nanopores

The real-time digestion of entrapped single-DNA molecules by λ-exonuclease in nanoporous alumina membranes was observed using an epifluorescence microscope. The alumina membrane provides pL (∼10⁻¹² L) containers for confining single-DNA molecules without immobilization. When one end of the DNA molecule was inserted into a nanopore, it was possible to monitor the digestion process outside, near and inside the pore, where the individual DNA molecules exhibited different characteristic digestion modes. The digestion rates calculated from the decrease in fluorescence intensity showed different values according to the location of the individual molecules. Entrapment rather than immobilization allows the DNA strand to be fully exposed to the enzyme and the reaction buffer. These results confirm that the enzymatic digestion of DNA molecules is affected by their three-dimensional (3D) environment.
