Abstract
Enoxaparin sodium is an anticoagulant medication that is used as a blood thinning agent. It is mostly used for the treatment and prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). It is also used in certain surgeries and during pregnancy. For the treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and heart attacks, it may be used. Enoxaparin sodium was validated by the RP-HPLC method. A simple RP-HPLC method was developed in a single HPLC run in a dry powder injection formulation. All injections of HPLC sample were 20 μL volume. The chromatographic separation was completed in the isocratic mode. The used column was USP-L8 (250 mm × 4.6 mm) of BDS type of 10 μm meters in the same mobile phase throughout the analysis by using methanol and ultrapure water with a ratio of 7:93, respectively. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. The mobile phase was filtered through 0.45 μm filter paper, and isocratic elution was performed. The refractive index (RI) detector was used to analyze this sample. The specific peak of enoxaparin sodium was observed at 5:56 min. The calculated detection limit (LOD) was 0.351 ppm, and the calculated quantitation limit was 1.063 ppm. In repeatability of precision, the average calculated assay (%) was 100.85%, and the calculated RSD (%) was 0.01. In the accuracy test, the RSD (%) was 0.50, and the mean recovery (%) was 100.35. The system's suitability was within the limit. This newly developed method is proposed according to ICH guidelines, and rules and can be applied effectively for the exact estimation of enoxaparin sodium in injection formulation. This newly developed methodology is affordable in cost as long as less time is taken and the consumption of samples is in smaller quantities for every investigation. In medicinal chemistry, the USP (United States Pharmacopeia) and BP (British Pharmacopeia) are directly involved in production as well as in quality testing.

Abstract
Sediments play an essential role in the functioning of aquatic ecosystems but simultaneously retain harmful compounds. However, sediment quality assessment methods that consider the risks caused by the combined action of all sediment-associated contaminants to benthic biota are still underrepresented in water quality assessment strategies. Significant advancements have been made in the application of effect-based methods, but methodological improvements can still advance sediment risk assessment. The present study aimed to explore such improvements by integrating effect-monitoring and chemical profiling of sediment contamination. To this end, 28 day life cycle bioassays with Chironomus riparius using intact whole sediment cores from contaminated sites were performed in tandem with explorative chemical profiling of bioavailable concentrations of groups of legacy and emerging sediment contaminants to investigate ecotoxicological risks to benthic biota. All contaminated sediments caused effects on the resilient midge C. riparius, stressing that sediment contamination is ubiquitous and potentially harmful to aquatic ecosystems. However, bioassay responses were not in line with any of the calculated toxicity indices, suggesting that toxicity was caused by unmeasured compounds. Hence, this study underlines the relevance of effect-based sediment quality assessment and provides smarter ways to do so.

Reutgard M, Furuhagen S. Linking sub-cellular biomarkers to embryo aberrations in the benthic amphipod Monoporeia affinis. AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2016; 173:36-42. [PMID: 26836507 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2016.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2015] [Revised: 01/13/2016] [Accepted: 01/18/2016] [Indexed: 05/04/2023]
Abstract
To adequately assess and monitor environmental status in the aquatic environment a broad approach is needed that integrates physical variables, chemical analyses and biological effects at different levels of the biological organization. Embryo aberrations in the Baltic Sea key species Monoporeia affinis can be induced by both metals and organic substances as well as by hypoxia, increasing temperatures and malnutrition. This amphipod has therefore been used for more than three decades as a biological effect indicator in monitoring and assessment of chemical pollution and environmental stress. However, little is known about the sub-cellular mechanisms underlying embryo aberrations. An improved mechanistic understanding may open up the possibility of including sub-cellular alterations as sensitive warning signals of stress-induced embryo aberrations. In the present study, M. affinis was exposed in microcosms to 4 different sediments from the Baltic Sea. After 88-95 days of exposure, survival and fecundity were determined as well as the frequency and type of embryo aberrations. Moreover, oxygen radical absorption capacity (ORAC) was assayed as a proxy for antioxidant defense, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) level as a measure of lipid peroxidation and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity as an indicator of neurotoxicity. The results show that AChE and ORAC can be linked to the frequency of malformed embryos and arrested embryo development. The occurrence of dead broods was significantly associated with elevated TBARS levels. It can be concluded that these sub-cellular biomarkers are indicative of effects that could affect Darwinian fitness and that oxidative stress is a likely mechanism in the development of aberrant embryos in M. affinis.

Abstract
Liaohe River has received significant attention in the northeast region and even in the entire country. As part of a recently completed water quality assessment, a series of water column and sediment toxicity tests was performed throughout the watershed. In the current study, we subjected sediments from the Liaohe River to toxicity identification evaluation manipulations and tests for chronic toxicity with midge (Chironomus riparius), with survival as the end point. In Phase I, the sediments were treated with zeolite, cation-exchange resin, and powdered coconut charcoal. Results confirmed that ammonia compounds were the major contaminants in terms of toxicity, although toxic effects from metals were also a concern in at least three sites. In Phase II identification, chemical analysis provided a strong evidence that the metals As and Cd are the probable causes of toxicity in the sediments, without the influence of ammonia. Temporally, ammonia is responsible for the toxicity of the selected sediments.

Abstract
Toxicity of organic extracts from the Pearl River sediments was investigated with Xenopus laevis embryos. The effects of sediment organic extracts on the mortality, body length and malformation of X. laevis embryos were tested by the Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay-Xenopus (FETAX). The 96-h LC₅₀ values for X. laevis embryos ranged from 62 to 137 g/L (g extracted sediment per L), and the toxicity effect on body length of larvae was not significant under 20 g/L. However, the teratogenic effects produced by sediment organic extracts were diverse, including edema, hypopigmentation, cardiac and ocular malformations, abdomen recurved and curved spine. The percentage of malformations increased with increasing sediment organic extracts, and even reached almost 100% at 10 and 20 g/L in Guangzhou district. A gradient of pollution in the Pearl River sediments was discerned from the teratogenic toxicity. Guangzhou district showed higher teratogenic toxicity compared with Panyu and Nansha districts as a possible consequence of high levels of PAHs, PCBs, OCPs and NP in the sediments. The teratogenic effects of organic extracts from the Pearl River sediments were successfully assessed which indicated the feasibility of teratogenic potential studies of sediments using X. laevis embryos.

Abstract
The dissolution potency of hydrophobic resin acids (RAs), retene and wood sterols from sediments was studied. These wood extractives and their metabolites are sorbed from pulp and paper mill effluents to downstream sediments. With harmful components like these, sediments can pose a hazard to the aquatic environment. Therefore, sediment elutriates with water were produced under variable conditions (agitation rate and efficiency, time), and concentrations of the dissoluted compounds were analyzed. Both naturally contaminated field sediments and artificially spiked sediments were studied. By vigorous agitation RAs can be released fast from the sediment matrix and equilibrium reached within 3 days. Compared to RAs, desorption of retene from lake sediment was slower and did not completely reach equilibrium in 23 days. Sterols spiked to pristine sediment with a 33-day contact time desorbed faster than those associated authentically with industrial sediment of from a contaminated lake. Simulating the water turbulence adjacent to a sediment surface by low and high rate of agitation in the laboratory, an increase in the mixing rate after 43-day elutriation suddenly released a high amount of wood sterols. The results indicate wide variation between hazardous chemicals in their tendency to dissolution from sediment solids. Erosion and hydrology adjacent to the sediment surface, as well as risks from dredging activities of sediments, may expose lake biota to bioactive chemicals.
