Forensic Studies Forensic studies * Interchim provides the following usefull products for forensics Technical tip – What are Forensics ? [] sciences : Forensic investigations are the application of science for legal issues and civil/public or private issues. This apply notably to High purity synthetic reference compounds for analysis of many persons identity authentication (crimes, parenthood, sexe, ), but also to goods compliance to norms and laws (certification, compounds analysed for forensic issues (drugs, pesticides, hormones,…) frauds), controlled substances use and traffic, art authentication, include notably … -drugs derivates : cannabinoids, cathinones, phenethylamines, A variety of techniques are performed to collect evidences and amphetamines, indanes, opioids, benzodiazepines, tryptamines, and analyze them. Fingerprint visualization require chemicals, gene identification require DNA collection tools, extration kits and phytocannabinoids, among many others. Include deuterated compounds, DNA-PCR kits. Analytical techniques require . reagents, isomers, DEA exempt references standards, analogs, derivatives and solvents, controlled substance standards, such as high- metabolites. common fragments found in EI-GC-MS analysis. performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas -other synthetic compounds are available, including pesticides (see the chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy agrosciences catalog), toxicants (see the biochemicals catalogs), (FTIR), and thin layer chromatography (TLC). + hormones (see also cell biology catalog),… Applications examples : Forensic Assay kits for the detection of illegal drugs and their metabolites or degradation products, in human/animal/foods/vegetal > DRUGS & derivates stuffs. analysis of drug residues in blood or urine : sport ; custom importation ; … Stains for Forensics tests , for example the popular Amido black (Acid analysis of regulated drugs in production facilities : Black 1) >Sectors : police, customs, justice, industries > PESTICIDES & derivat Forensic compounds analysis of pesticides and contaminants in foods, High purity synthetic reference compounds for analysis of and upstream natural stuff. cannabinoids, cathinones, phenethylamines, amphetamines, indanes, >Sectors : safety public services and privates opioids, benzodiazepines, tryptamines, and phytocannabinoids, among companies ; agroindustries ; environement ; police, many others.

Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) serve as Primary Standards for traceable quantitative analysis (according ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO Guide 34 :2000 (which include a certified property)). Ask for other drugs, analogs and derivates, for screening or standard references purposes, as well as pesticides and other toxicants, hormones and any compound analyzed for legal reasons (forensics). Search also BioActive compounds (pure chemicals, not validated as standardized references). * +Forensic Compounds References -pesticides Ask for pesticides pure compounds, CRM and standards Forensic Assay kits Assay kits allow the detection of illegal drug and their metabolites or degradation products, in human/animal/foods/vegetal stuffs, as well as legal drugs typically in human urine, blood or oral fluids.

  • NPPC GSP Oral Comments on the Kingdom of Thailand Maria Zieba
    NPPC GSP Oral Comments on The Kingdom of Thailand Maria Zieba I appreciate the opportunity to represent the National Pork Producers Council at today’s hearing. NPPC is a national association representing 42 state producer organizations. It represents the federal policy and global interests of 60,000 U.S. pork producers. The United States is the top global exporter of pork, shipping nearly 2.5 million metric tons (MT), valued at over $6.4 billion to more than 100 nations in 2018. While Thailand consumes more than one million metric tons of pork annually, it imported no U.S. pork in 2018. That’s because Thailand effectively maintains a ban on U.S. pork. It defends its unwarranted ban on uncooked pork and other pork products by pointing to the use of ractopamine by some U.S. pork producers. Ractopamine hydrochloride (or ractopamine) is a feed ingredient approved for use in the United States for swine and beef cattle. In swine, it is used for increased weight gain, feed efficiency, and carcass leanness in finishing swine. Thailand maintains a ban on imports of pork produced with ractopamine, despite the approval by its own Ministry of Health for domestic use. After an extensive risk assessment, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved ractopamine for use in hogs in 1999, and no adverse human health problems have been reported since approval. In 2012, the Codex Alimentarius recognized the safety of ractopamine, establishing a recommended maximum residue level (MRL) for the product. At least 25 other countries have also approved the use of ractopamine in pork production, and an additional 75 countries permit imports of pork produced using ractopamine.

RCT and CLB residues were determined using previously validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as a quantitative screening method. Hydrolysis of urine samples with b-glucuronidase showed significantly higher (p<0.05) RCT residues. Study results showed RCT and CLB urine concentrations to vary greatly during oral treatment for 28 days, with maximal RCT and CLB concentration recorded on day 25 ((327.4±161.0) ng/mL) and day 20 ((68.4±32.2) ng/mL), respectively. RCT concentration of (57.1±10.6) ng/mL and CLB concentration of (38.8±20.1) ng/mL were measured on day 0 of treatment withdrawal; on day 7 of treatment withdrawal, the measured concentration of RCT ((5.0±0.9) ng/mL) was 20-fold of CLB concentration ((0.3±0.2) ng/mL).

  • Crystal Structure of Dopamine D1 Receptor in Complex with G Protein and a Non-Catechol Agonist
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-23519-9 OPEN Crystal structure of dopamine D1 receptor in complex with G protein and a non-catechol agonist Bingfa Sun 1,7, Dan Feng1,7, Matthew Ling-Hon Chu1, Inbar Fish1, Silvia Lovera2, Zara A. Sands2,6, Sebastian Kelm 3, Anne Valade2, Martyn Wood2, Tom Ceska 3, Tong Sun Kobilka1, Florence Lebon4 & ✉ Brian K. Kobilka 1,5 Dopamine D1 receptor (D1R) is an important drug target implicated in many psychiatric and 1234567890():,; neurological disorders. Selective agonism of D1R are sought to be the therapeutic strategy for these disorders. Most selective D1R agonists share a dopamine-like catechol moiety in their molecular structure, and their therapeutic potential is therefore limited by poor pharmaco- logical properties in vivo. Recently, a class of non-catechol D1R selective agonists with a distinct scaffold and pharmacological properties were reported. Here, we report the crystal structure of D1R in complex with stimulatory G protein (Gs) and a non-catechol agonist Compound 1 at 3.8 Å resolution. The structure reveals the ligand bound to D1R in an extended conformation, spanning from the orthosteric site to extracellular loop 2 (ECL2). Structural analysis reveals that the unique features of D1R ligand binding pocket explains the remarkable selectivity of this scaffold for D1R over other aminergic receptors, and sheds light on the mechanism for D1R activation by the non-catechol agonist. 1 ConfometRx, Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA. 2 UCB Pharma, Braine-l’Alleud, Belgium. 3 UCB Pharma, Slough, UK. 4 UCB Pharma, Anderlecht, Belgium. 5 Department of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA, USA.
