January 2015 The study aimed to isolate a non-toxic, non-irritant anti-alopecic compound from Aloe barbadensis Miller. Researchers used chromatographic techniques to isolate the compound and tested its cytotoxicity and dermal irritancy. Alopecia was induced in Wistar rats using warfarin, and the compound was applied topically. Histological analysis showed that the compound significantly promoted hair follicle regeneration and hair growth compared to minoxidil. The findings suggested that the isolated compound could serve as a new anti-alopecic drug, potentially replacing minoxidil.

April 2018 in “Current Pharmaceutical Analysis” The study developed and validated a rapid, simple, and cost-effective RP-TLC method combined with densitometry for quantifying finasteride in tablet dosage forms. Chromatographic analysis was performed using silica gel plates and a 1,4-dioxane-water mobile phase, with densitometric scanning at 212 nm. The method showed high accuracy and precision, with a coefficient of variation less than 2%, and was linear over the range of 1.00-4.00 µg/spot with a correlation coefficient of 0.9981. The limits of detection and quantification were 0.24 and 0.74 µg/spot, respectively. The assay results for finasteride in marketed tablets were consistent with label claims and pharmacopoeial standards, indicating the method's suitability for routine analysis.
