Lykouras M, Papaspyridakou P, Makri OE, Georgakopoulos CD, Orkoula MG. Development of Analytical Method for the Quantitation of Monoclonal Antibodies Solutions via Raman Spectroscopy: The Case of Bevacizumab. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:446. [PMID: 38675406 PMCID: PMC11055105 DOI: 10.3390/ph17040446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Personalized dosages of monoclonal antibodies are being used more regularly to treat various diseases, rendering their quantitation more essential than ever for the right dose administration to the patients. A promising alternative, which overcomes the obstacles of the well-established chromatographic techniques regarding the quantification of biopharmaceuticals, is Raman spectroscopy. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel analytical method for the quantitation of bevacizumab in solutions via Raman spectroscopy. For this purpose, a droplet of the solution was left to dry on a highly reflective carrier and a home-made apparatus was employed for rotation of the sample. Hence, each recorded Raman spectrum was the average of the signal acquired simultaneously from multiple points on a circular circumference. The method was validated, and the detection limit of the antibody was found to be 1.06 mg/mL. Bevacizumab was found to be highly distributed at the formed coffee ring of the dried droplet, though this was a function of solution concentration. Finally, Raman spectra at different distances on the coffee ring were obtained from the four quarters. The lowest bevacizumab detection limit was found at a distance of 75 μm from the external side of the coffee ring and it was determined to be equal to 0.53 mg/mL.

Abstract
A full-spectrum spontaneous single-cell Raman spectrum (fs-SCRS) captures the metabolic phenome for a given cellular state of the cell in a label-free, landscape-like manner. Herein a positive dielectrophoresis induced deterministic lateral displacement-based Raman flow cytometry (pDEP-DLD-RFC) is established. This robust flow cytometry platform utilizes a periodical positive dielectrophoresis induced deterministic lateral displacement (pDEP-DLD) force that is exerted to focus and trap fast-moving single cells in a wide channel, which enables efficient fs-SCRS acquisition and extended stable running time. It automatically produces deeply sampled, heterogeneity-resolved, and highly reproducible ramanomes for isogenic cell populations of yeast, microalgae, bacteria, and human cancers, which support biosynthetic process dissection, antimicrobial susceptibility profiling, and cell-type classification. Moreover, when coupled with intra-ramanome correlation analysis, it reveals state- and cell-type-specific metabolic heterogeneity and metabolite-conversion networks. The throughput of ≈30-2700 events min-1 for profiling both nonresonance and resonance marker bands in a fs-SCRS, plus the >5 h stable running time, represent the highest performance among reported spontaneous Raman flow cytometry (RFC) systems. Therefore, pDEP-DLD-RFC is a valuable new tool for label-free, noninvasive, and high-throughput profiling of single-cell metabolic phenomes.

Abstract
Early diagnosis and monitoring are essential for the effective treatment and survival of patients with different types of malignancy. To this end, the accurate and sensitive determination of substances in human biological fluids related to cancer diagnosis and/or prognosis, i.e., cancer biomarkers, is of ultimate importance. Advancements in the field of immunodetection and nanomaterials have enabled the application of new transduction approaches for the sensitive detection of single or multiple cancer biomarkers in biological fluids. Immunosensors based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) are examples where the special properties of nanostructured materials and immunoreagents are combined to develop analytical tools that hold promise for point-of-care applications. In this frame, the subject of this review article is to present the advancements made so far regarding the immunochemical determination of cancer biomarkers by SERS. Thus, after a short introduction about the principles of both immunoassays and SERS, an extended presentation of up-to-date works regarding both single and multi-analyte determination of cancer biomarkers is presented. Finally, future perspectives on the field of SERS immunosensors for cancer markers detection are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Herbs have been used as natural remedies for disease treatment, prevention, and health care. Some herbs with functional properties are also used as food or food additives for culinary purposes. The quality and safety inspection of herbs are influenced by various factors, which need to be assessed in each operation across the whole process of herb production. Traditional analysis methods are time-consuming and laborious, without quick response, which limits industry development and digital detection. Considering the efficiency and accuracy, faster, cheaper, and more environment-friendly techniques are highly needed to complement or replace the conventional chemical analysis methods. Infrared (IR) and Raman spectroscopy techniques have been applied to the quality control and safety inspection of herbs during the last several decades. In this paper, we generalize the current application using IR and Raman spectroscopy techniques across the whole process, from raw materials to patent herbal products. The challenges and remarks were proposed in the end, which serve as references for improving herb detection based on IR and Raman spectroscopy techniques. Meanwhile, make a path to driving intelligence and automation of herb products factories.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the accuracy of Raman spectroscopy in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.MethodsDatabases including Web of Science, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, Wan Fang Data, and VIP were electronically searched for studies on Raman spectroscopy in diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease from inception to November 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias in the included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using Meta-Disc1.4 and Stata 16.0 software.ResultsA total of eight studies were finally included. The pooled sensitivity of Raman spectroscopy was 0.86 [95% CI (0.80–0.91)], specificity was 0.87 [95% CI (0.79–0.92)], positive likelihood ratio was 5.50 [95% CI (3.55–8.51)], negative likelihood ratio was 0.17 [95% CI (0.09–0.34)], diagnosis odds ratio and area under the curve of SROC were 42.44 [95% CI (19.80–90.97)] and 0.931, respectively. Sensitivity analysis was carried out after each study was excluded one by one, and the results showed that pooled sensitivity and specificity had no significant change, indicating that the stability of the meta-analysis results was great.ConclusionsOur findings indicated that Raman spectroscopy had high accuracy in the diagnosis of AD, though it still did not rule out the possibility of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. Limited by the quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusions need to be verified by more high-quality studies.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a very sensitive technique offering unique opportunities for detection and identification of molecules and molecular structures at extremely low concentrations even in complex sample matrixes. Since a nanostructured noble metal surface is required for the enhancement of Raman scattering, the acquired spectral information naturally originates from nanometer size domains making it a nanospectroscopic technique by breaking the diffraction limit of light. In this review, first Raman spectroscopy, its comparison to other related techniques, its modes and instrumentation are briefly introduced. Then, the SERS mechanism, substrates and the parameters influencing a SERS experiment are discussed. Finally, its applications in pharmaceuticals including drug discovery, drug metabolism, multifunctional chemo-photothermal-therapy-delivery-release-imaging, drug stability and drug/metabolite detection in complex biological samples are summarized and elaborated.

Development and Characterization of Eudragit ® EPO-Based Solid Dispersion of Rosuvastatin Calcium to Foresee the Impact on Solubility, Dissolution and Antihyperlipidemic Activity. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:ph15040492.

Abstract
Poor solubility is the major challenge involved in the formulation development of new chemical entities (NCEs), as more than 40% of NCEs are practically insoluble in water. Solid dispersion (SD) is a promising technology for improving dissolution and, thereby, the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. This study investigates the influence of a pH-sensitive acrylate polymer, EPO, on the physicochemical properties of rosuvastatin calcium, an antihyperlipidemic drug. In silico docking was conducted with numerous polymers to predict drug polymer miscibility. The screened-out polymer was used to fabricate the binary SD of RoC in variable ratios using the co-grinding and solvent evaporation methods. The prepared formulations were assessed for physiochemical parameters such as saturation solubility, drug content and in vitro drug release. The optimized formulations were further ruled out using solid-state characterization (FTIR, DSC, XRD and SEM) and in vitro cytotoxicity. The results revealed that all SDs profoundly increased solubility as well as drug release. However, the formulation RSE-2, with a remarkable 71.88-fold increase in solubility, presented 92% of drug release in the initial 5 min. The molecular interaction studied using FTIR, XRD, DSC and SEM analysis evidenced the improvement of in vitro dissolution. The enhancement in solubility of RoC may be important for the modulation of the dyslipidemia response. Therefore, pharmacodynamic activity was conducted for optimized formulations. Our findings suggested an ameliorative effect of RSE-2 in dyslipidemia and its associated complications. Moreover, RSE-2 exhibited nonexistence of cytotoxicity against human liver cell lines. Convincingly, this study demonstrates that SD of RoC can be successfully fabricated by EPO, and have all the characteristics that are favourable for superior dissolution and better therapeutic response to the drug.

Abstract
Previously, we introduced a novel one-class classification (OCC) concept for spectra. It uses as acceptance space for genuine spectra of the target chemical, a prediction band in the wavelengths' space. As a decision rule, test spectra falling substantially outside this band are rejected as noncomplying with the target, and their deviations are documented in the wavelengths' space. This band-based OCC concept was applied to smooth signals like near-infrared (NIR) spectra. A regression model based on a smoothed principal component (PC) representation of the training spectra was used to predict unseen trajectories of future spectra. The boundaries of the most central predicted trajectories were chosen as critical trajectories. We now propose a methodology to construct a similar band-based one-class classifier for Raman spectra, which are sharper and noisier than NIR spectra. The spectra are transformed by a composition of wavelet and principal component (wPC) expansions instead of just a PC expansion in the previous methodology for NIR spectra. Wavelets can capture sharp features of Raman signals and provide a framework to efficiently denoise them. A multinormal prediction model is then used to derive predictions of future wPC scores of unseen spectra. These predicted wPC scores are then backtransformed to obtain predictions of future trajectories of unseen spectra in the wavelengths' space, whose most central region defines the acceptance band or space. This band-based one-class classifier successfully classified the first derivatives of real pharmaceutical Raman spectra, while enjoying the advantage of documenting deviations from the critical trajectories in the wavelengths' space and hence is more interpretable.

Abstract
The detection of peaks shifts in Raman spectroscopy enables a fingerprint reconstruction to discriminate among molecules with neither labelling nor sample preparation. Time-resolved Raman spectroscopy is an effective technique to reject the strong fluorescence background that profits from the time scale difference in the two responses: Raman photons are scattered almost instantaneously while fluorescence shows a nanoseconds time constant decay. The combination of short laser pulses with time-gated detectors enables the collection of only those photons synchronous with the pulse, thus rejecting fluorescent ones. This review addresses time-gating issues from the sensor standpoint and identifies single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) arrays as the most suitable single-photon detectors to be rapidly and precisely time-gated without bulky, complex, or expensive setups. At first, we discuss the requirements for ideal Raman SPAD arrays, particularly focusing on the design guidelines for optimized on-chip processing electronics. Then we present some existing SPAD-based architectures, featuring specific operation modes which can be usefully exploited for Raman spectroscopy. Finally, we highlight key aspects for future ultrafast Raman platforms and highly integrated sensors capable of undistorted identification of Raman peaks across many pixels.

Abstract
Raman spectroscopy is a molecular vibrational spectroscopic technique has developed rapidly in recent years, especially in rapid field detection. In this paper, we discuss the Raman spectral pretreatment method and classification algorithm by using nearly 300 pigments spectral data as an example. Here, more than 5 kinds of classification algorithms such as SVM, KNN, ANN and et al are used to sovle the problem of pigments visualization, classification and identification via Raman spectral, and the results show that most of the algorithms fit well, with an accuracy of 90%. Moreover, SNR (Signal to noise ratio) is introduced to evaluate the stability of our algorithm. When the SNR is low, the accuracy of the algorithm decreases sharply. When the SNR was 1, the accuracy rate reached the highest value of 39.46%. In order to slove this problem, the flattopwin, hanning, blackman algorithm was introduced to denoise the signal with low SNR, even when SNR = 1, the signal is 80% accurate. It is proved that in the extreme case of this application, the algorithm still maintains good accuracy, and our research pave the way to use interlligent algorithms to solve the problems in the fields of Raman spectral detection.

Abstract
The high attrition rates of anti-cancer drugs during clinical development remains a bottleneck problem in pharmaceutical industry. This is partially due to the lack of quantitative, selective, and rapid readouts of anti-cancer drug activity in situ with high resolution. Although fluorescence microscopy has been commonly used in oncology pharmacological research, fluorescent labels are often too large in size for small drug molecules, and thus may disturb the function or metabolism of these molecules. Such challenge can be overcome by coherent Raman scattering microscopy, which is capable of chemically selective, highly sensitive, high spatial resolution, and high-speed imaging, without the need of any labeling. Coherent Raman scattering microscopy has tremendously improved the understanding of pharmaceutical materials in the solid state, pharmacokinetics of anti-cancer drugs and nanocarriers in vitro and in vivo. This review focuses on the latest applications of coherent Raman scattering microscopy as a new emerging platform to facilitate oncology pharmacokinetic research.

Abstract
Techniques enabling in situ monitoring of drug solubilization and changes in the solid-state of the drug during the digestion of milk and milk-based formulations are valuable for predicting the effectiveness of such formulations in improving the oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs. We have recently reported the use of low-frequency Raman scattering spectroscopy (region of analysis <200 cm-1) as an analytical approach to probe solubilization of drugs during digestion in milk using ferroquine (SSR97193) as the model compound. This study investigates the wider utilization of this technique to probe the solubilization behavior of other poorly water-soluble drugs (halofantrine, lumefantrine, and clofazimine) in not only milk but also infant formula in the absence or presence of bile salts during in vitro digestion. Multivariate analysis was used to interpret changes to the spectra related to the drug as a function of digestion time, through tracking changes in the principal component (PC) values characteristic to the drug signals. Characteristic low-frequency Raman bands for all of the drugs were evident after dispersing the solid drugs in suspension form in milk and infant formula. The drugs were generally solubilized during the digestion of the formulations as observed previously for ferroquine and correlated with behavior determined using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). A greater extent of drug solubilization was also generally observed in the infant formula compared to milk. However, in the case of the drug clofazimine, the correlation between low-frequency Raman scattering and SAXS was not clear, which may arise due to background interference from clofazimine being an intense red dye, which highlights a potential limitation of this new approach. Overall, the in situ monitoring of drug solubilization in milk and milk-based formulations during digestion can be achieved using low-frequency Raman scattering spectroscopy, and the information obtained from studying this spectral region can provide better insights into drug solubilization compared to the mid-frequency Raman region.

Abstract
Monitoring drug uptake, its metabolism, and response on the single-cell level is invaluable for sustaining drug discovery efforts. In this study, we show the possibility of accessing the information about the aforementioned processes at the single-cell level by monitoring the anticancer drug tamoxifen using live single-cell mass spectrometry (LSC-MS) and Raman spectroscopy. First, we explored whether Raman spectroscopy could be used as a label-free and nondestructive screening technique to identify and predict the drug response at the single-cell level. Then, a subset of the screened cells was isolated and analyzed by LSC-MS to measure tamoxifen and its metabolite, 4-Hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT) in a highly selective, sensitive, and semiquantitative manner. Our results show the Raman spectral signature changed in response to tamoxifen treatment which allowed us to identify and predict the drug response. Tamoxifen and 4-OHT abundances quantified by LSC-MS suggested some heterogeneity among single-cells. A similar phenomenon was observed in the ratio of metabolized to unmetabolized tamoxifen across single-cells. Moreover, a correlation was found between tamoxifen and its metabolite, suggesting that the drug was up taken and metabolized by the cell. Finally, we found some potential correlations between Raman spectral intensities and tamoxifen abundance, or its metabolism, suggesting a possible relationship between the two signals. This study demonstrates for the first time the potential of using Raman spectroscopy and LSC-MS to investigate pharmacokinetics at the single-cell level.

Abstract
In the confocal mode, Raman microspectroscopy can profile the biochemical content of biological cells at a subcellular level, and any changes to it by exogenous agents, such as therapeutic drugs or toxicants. As an exploration of the potential of the technique as a high-content, label-free analysis technique, this report reviews work to monitor the spectroscopic signatures associated with the uptake and response pathways of commercial chemotherapeutic agents and polymeric nanoparticles by human lung cells. It is demonstrated that the signatures are reproducible and characteristic of the cellular event, and can be used, for example, to identify the mode of action of the agent as well as the subsequent cell death pathway, and even mechanisms of cellular resistance. Data mining approaches are discussed and a spectralomics approach is proposed.

Abstract
Over the last few decades, hot melt extrusion (HME) has emerged as a successful technology for a broad spectrum of applications in the pharmaceutical industry. As indicated by multiple publications and patents, HME is mainly used for the enhancement of solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. This review is focused on the recent reports on the solubility enhancement via HME and provides an update for the manufacturing/scaling up aspects of melt extrusion. In addition, drug characterization methods and dissolution studies are discussed. The application of process analytical technology (PAT) tools and use of HME as a continuous manufacturing process may shorten the drug development process; as a result, the latter is becoming the most widely utilized technique in the pharmaceutical industry. The advantages, disadvantages, and practical applications of various PAT tools such as near and mid-infrared, ultraviolet/visible, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopies are summarized, and the characteristics of other techniques are briefly discussed. Overall, this review also provides an outline for the currently marketed products and analyzes the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of HME application in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
The main goal of a novel drug development is to obtain it with optimal physiochemical, pharmaceutical and biological properties. Pharmaceutical companies and scientists modify active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), which often are cocrystals, salts or carefully selected polymorphs, to improve the properties of a parent drug. To find the best form of a drug, various advanced characterization methods should be used. In this review, we have described such analytical methods, dedicated to solid drug forms. Thus, diffraction, spectroscopic, thermal and also pharmaceutical characterization methods are discussed. They all are necessary to study a solid API in its intrinsic complexity from bulk down to the molecular level, gain information on its structure, properties, purity and possible transformations, and make the characterization efficient, comprehensive and complete. Furthermore, these methods can be used to monitor and investigate physical processes, involved in the drug development, in situ and in real time. The main aim of this paper is to gather information on the current advancements in the analytical methods and highlight their pharmaceutical relevance.

Abstract
ABSTRACT For the first time, Mo nanoscrew was cultivated as a novel non-coinage-metal substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). It was found that the nanoscrew is composed of many small screw threads stacking along its length direction with small separations. Under external light excitation, strong electromagnetic coupling was initiated within the gaps, and many hot-spots formed on the surface of the nanoscrew, which was confirmed by high-resolution scanning near-field optical microscope measurements and numerical simulations using finite element method. These hot-spots are responsible for the observed SERS activity of the nanoscrews. Raman mapping characterizations further revealed the excellent reproducibility of the SERS activity. Our findings may pave the way for design of low-cost and stable SERS substrates. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT Mo nanoscrews are for the first time cultivated as a novel type of SERS substrate. The SERS activity is originated from the electromagnetic field enhancements on the individual Mo nanoscrew, which is corroborated by single-particle optical characterizations.

Considerable evidence about phenotypic heterogeneity among bacteria during infection has accumulated during recent years. This heterogeneity has to be considered if the mechanisms of infection and antibiotic action are to be understood, so we need to implement existing and find novel methods to monitor the effects of antibiotics on bacteria at the single-cell level. This review provides an overview of methods by which this aim can be achieved. Fluorescence label-based methods and Raman scattering as a label-free approach are discussed in particular detail. Other label-free methods that can provide single-cell level information, such as impedance spectroscopy and surface plasmon resonance, are briefly summarized. The advantages and disadvantages of these different methods are discussed in light of a challenging in vivo environment.

Abstract
In situ Raman surface mapping on a trihydrate sample provides evidence for the existence of a transient phase X on the route to its stable anhydrous polymorph I. The phase transformation events are observed in the order trihydrate → transient phase → form I.
