Abstract
Reports of the number of adulteration cases using illegal therapeutic substances in dietary supplements have increased. In recent years, various dietary supplements are being distributed that exaggerate the efficacy of treatment for prostate-related diseases. To develop the preemptive monitoring method, we selected 21 prostate-related therapeutic substances and optimized the simultaneous ultra-performance liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry and pretreatment procedures for various types of matrices including solid, liquid, and soft capsule samples. The methods were validated by determining the specificity, linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, method detection limit, method quantitation limit, precision, accuracy, recovery, stability, and matrix effect. The simultaneous methods were validated according to the international guidelines. In addition, using the validated methods, 81 real samples, which were searched and purchased by focusing on promotional phrases, such as prostate and prostatic hyperplasia, were successfully screened. As a result, sildenafil and tadalafil were detected in one seized capsule sample (5.15 and 14.6 mg/g, respectively). Synthetically, our approach could be useful for the determination of illegal therapeutic substances potentially adulterated in various types of dietary supplements.

Abstract
Herein, a selective and rapid spectrofluorimetric method coupled with experimental design approach for reliable and efficient determination of two α-blockers, namely: terazosin hydrochloride (TER) and doxazosin mesylate (DOX) in their marketed tablets was developed. The presented method adopts formation of a semi-quinoid form of the studied drugs in borate buffer. The effects of parameters influencing fluorescence intensity including pH, the volume of buffer and diluting solvent were optimized using an experimental design methodology. The optimum conditions were found to be pH: 9.8, the volume of buffer: 2.0 mL and diluting solvent: water. Under the optimum experimental conditions, a large enhancement of the studied drugs fluorescence was obtained, measured at 387 after excitation at 246 nm for either TER or DOX with limits of detection 0.05 and 0.14 ng mL-1 and limits of quantification 0.14 and 0.43 ng mL-1 in the concentration ranges of 0.2-30.0 ng mL-1 and 0.5-30.0 ng mL-1 for TER and DOX, respectively. The presented method was validated according to the ICH guidelines. Furthermore, it extended to perform the content uniformity testing and analysis of the studied drugs in spiked human plasma with % recovery (96.00 ± 0.45-101.42 ± 1.20%, n = 3).

Abstract
Prazosin (PRZ), a drug used to treat hypertensive patients, is an emergent contaminant in water systems. PRZ is an alpha-adrenergic receptor blocker used to treat anxiety, and is believed to reach the environment through human excretion, irresponsible disposal of unused medicine, and waste products from manufacturing plants. The purpose of this research was to isolate and characterize potential microbes for PRZ biodegradation and to identify the degradation pathway. After screening, isolated strain STP3 showed a capability for PRZ degradation and was chosen for further analysis. Resting cell assays with PRZ were conducted to identify the intermediate metabolites formed from biodegradation by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (FT-ICR MS) analysis. Two metabolites degraded from PRZ by STP3 were successfully found, and as these metabolites are derived from the main structure of PRZ, their presence proved PRZ degradation. Draft genome sequencing analysis of STP3 was performed to identify potential enzymes for PRZ biodegradation based on the metabolites found.

Abstract
A new, selective and sensitive spectrofluorimetric method was designed for the quantitation of doxazosin (DOX), terazosin (TER) and alfuzosin (ALF) in their dosage forms and human plasma. The method adopts efficient derivatization of the studied drugs with ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA), in the presence of 2-mercaptoethanol in borate buffer (pH9.7) to generate a highly fluorescent isoindole derivatives, which can strongly enhance the fluorescence intensities of the studied drugs, allowing their sensitive determination at 430nm after excitation at 337nm. The fluorescence-concentration plots were rectilinear over the ranges (10.0-400.0) ng/mL. Detection and quantification limits were found to be (0.52-3.88) and (1.59-11.76) ng/mL, respectively. The proposed method was validated according to ICH guidelines, and successfully applied for the determination of pharmaceutical preparations of the studied drugs. Moreover, the high sensitivity of the proposed method permits its successful application to the analysis of the studied drugs in spiked human plasma with % recovery (96.12±1.34-100.66±0.57, n=3). A proposal for the reaction mechanism was presented.

Abstract
Polymeric ionic liquid-coated magnetic nanoparticles have been successfully prepared as adsorbents for the magnetic solid-phase extraction of four drugs, namely alfuzosin, doxazosin, terazosin and prazosin, from pharmaceutical preparations, urine samples and plasma samples. The four drugs were detected by fluorescence spectrophotometer. Several extraction parameters, including the pH of the solution; the type, ratio and volume of the desorbing reagent; the amount of adsorbent; the time of the extraction and desorption processes; and the addition of NaCl, were investigated and optimized. Linear responses were determined for the four drugs in the concentration range of 0.5 - 45 ng mL(-1). The limit of detection values for alfuzosin, doxazosin, terazosin and prazosin, which were defined as three times the standard deviation of a blank sample, were determined to be 0.035, 0.034, 0.027 and 0.028 ng mL(-1) (n = 11), respectively. Furthermore, this new method gave preconcentration factors of 114.5, 111.3, 111.1 and 108.5 for these four drugs.

Abstract
A highly sensitive, simple and selective spectrofluorimetric method has been developed and validated for determination of doxazosin mesylate in pure form, pharmaceutical formulations and human plasma. The method is based on the reaction between doxazosin mesylate and fluorescamine in Teorell buffer solution (pH 3) to give highly fluorescent derivative that can be measured at 489 nm using excitation wavelength of 385 nm. Different experimental parameters affecting the reaction were carefully studied and optimized. The calibration plot was constructed over the concentration range of 16-400 ng mL(-1) with quantitation limit of 14.3 ng mL(-1). The developed procedure was validated according to ICH guidelines and the results were satisfactory. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the analysis of the cited drug in its pharmaceutical preparations as well as for content uniformity testing. The results showed excellent agreement with the reported method with respect to precision and accuracy. In addition, the drug concentration was determined in the spiked human plasma by the suggested method with % recovery in the range of 96.2-98.3% (SD; 0.76-0.93, n=5).

Abstract
Herein, a Rayleigh light-scattering (RLS) detection method combined with high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) without any post-column probe was developed for the separation and determination of three α₁-adrenoceptor antagonists. The quantitative analysis is benefiting from RLS signal enhancement upon addition of methanol which induced molecular aggregation to form an hydrophobic interface between aggregates and water that produce a sort of superficial enhanced scattering effect. A good chromatographic separation among the compounds was achieved using a Gemini 5u C₁₈ reversed phase column (250 mm × 4.6 mm; 4 μm) with a mobile phase consisting of methanol and ammonium acetate-formic acid buffer solution (25 mM; pH=3.0) at the flow rate of 0.7 mL min(-1). The RLS signal was monitored at λex=λem=354 nm. A limit of detection (LOD) of 0.065-0.70 μg L(-1) was reached and a linear range was found between peak height and concentration in the range of 0.75-15 μg L(-1) for doxazosin mesylate (DOX), 0.075-3.0 μg L(-1) for prazosin hydrochloride (PRH), and 0.25-5 μg L(-1) for terazosin hydrochloride (TEH), with linear regression coefficients all above 0.999. Recoveries from spiked urine samples were 88.4-99.0% which is within acceptable limits. The proposed method is convenient, reliable and sensitive which has been used successfully in human urine samples.
