Development and validation of a novel RP-HPLC method for determination of Remdesivir: Investigation of the greenness for the proposed method by Karthika Paul, B.H. Jaswanth Gowda, R.S. Chandan

“…The comparative analysis identifies the Analytical Eco-Scale score of 79 and AGREE value of 0.78 as indicative of the greenest chromatographic method for remdesivir analysis in raw materials. Notably, the National Environmental Methods Index tool exhibits limited performance compared to other metric systems, precluding its standalone use The study concludes that the proposed RP-HPLC methods offer effective greenness with reduced time making it suitable for routine use.…”

Spectral parameters of the ρ resonance from lattice QCD by The CLQCD collaboration, Zhengli Wang, Derek B. Leinweber, Chuan Liu, Liuming Liu, Peng Sun, Anthony W. Thomas, Jia-jun Wu, Hanyang Xing, Kang Yu

“…The extrapolated values for the mass and width in the Breit-Wigner form are (m ρ , Γ ρ ) = (781.6 ± 10.0, 146.5 ± 9.9) MeV, which are in good agreement with experiment. An alternative method of analysis, based on Hamiltonian effective field theory, involves directly fitting the lattice energy levels and accounting for the quark mass dependence of the hadronic loop diagrams which yield the leading and next-to-leading non-analytic behaviour. …”
