The activated clotting time (ACT) is widely used for monitoring heparin anticoagulation during cardiac surgery. Celite-based ACT values are prolonged when aprotinin is administered. MDCO-2010, a novel serine protease inhibitor, is currently being evaluated as a possible alternative to aprotinin.

Diatomaceous earth (DE), or diatomite silica microparticles originated from fossilized diatoms are a potential substitute for its silica-based synthetic counterparts to address limitations in conventional drug delivery. This study presents the impact of engineered surface chemistry of DE microparticles on

Organic matrices are the state-of-the-art ionization mediators in Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry (LDI-MS). Despite improvements in understanding matrix chemistry, interfering matrix-related signals complicate the analysis. Surface-assisted LDI techniques like desorption/ionization on silicon (DIOS) or nanostructure initiator mass spectrometry (NIMS) provide
