Norvancomycin (NVCM) is widely used in China to treat bacterial infections of Gram-positive cocci and bacilli, especially infections of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis. This study is a chemical investigation of the drug substance of NVCM, and led to the identification, by 1D, 2D NMR spectra and HRESIMS, of three as yet undescribed impurities, one D-O-E ring expanded NVCM analog (1) and two derivatives of NVCM lacking sugars (2, 3).

Tuberculosis, caused by , persists as a significant worldwide health issue, resulting in millions of infections and fatalities each year. Treatment predominantly depends on first-line antibiotics, including Isoniazid (INH) and Rifampicin (RIF). Nevertheless, extended use of these medications is linked to considerable adverse effects, leading to various organ toxicities, especially hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity.

Background: Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) stands among the most toxic naturally occurring substances, with its acute toxicity characterized by the induction of acute hepatic necrosis, hemorrhage, and even fatal outcomes, thereby posing a profound threat to human health. Contamination of AFB1 in food commodities can arise at multiple stages throughout the production cycle, including cultivation, storage, and processing. This contamination cascade permeates the entire food supply chain, encompassing primary agricultural products as well as a diverse range of processed food items.

Social wasps make up a significant part to the diversity of the Hymenoptera order, one of the most varied insect groups. Beyond their ecological importance, these insects use their venom for defense, protecting their colonies. The venom of social wasps are rich in biologically active substances, including biogenic amines, peptides, proteins, enzymes, allergens, and volatile compounds.
