Article Abstract
This research paper presents simple and quick eco-friendly spot test and spectrophotometric methods for the determination of L-glutathione. The spot test assay is based on the formation of a color complex with phenazine methosulphate and L-glutathione on a thin-layer chromatography plate followed by image analysis using a scanner as a detector. For analysis, the image was converted into red, green, and blue (RGB) histograms. A series of parameters that influenced the color formation were investigated, and under the optimal conditions, a good linearity was observed in the range of 200-1000 μg mL and 249-1000 μg mL of L-glutathione with correlation coefficients of 0.9907 for B and 0.9903 for G channels. For the spectrophotometric method, a good linearity was obtained in the range of 2.1-60 μg mL of L-glutathione concentration with a correlation coefficient of 0.9961. A mechanism of the reaction of L-glutathione with phenazine was proposed and confirmed by Fourier transform infrared and mass spectroscopy.

Importance: The cost-effectiveness of adding early in-bed cycling to usual physiotherapy among adults receiving mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU) compared with usual physiotherapy alone is unknown.
Objective: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of in-bed cycling plus usual physiotherapy compared with usual therapy alone in the Critical Care Cycling to Improve Lower Extremity Strength (CYCLE) randomized clinical trial.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This trial-based economic evaluation with a 90-day time horizon compared early cycling plus usual physiotherapy vs usual physiotherapy alone from a societal perspective.

Purpose: Recent work has shown potential benefits for perimetry with dense spacing. To investigate the impact of normal inhomogeneity of perimetric sensitivity on perimetry with dense spacing, suprathreshold perimetry was used near the optic disc where shadows of blood vessels affect sensitivity in healthy eyes.
Methods: Three groups of participants were tested: 58 healthy older controls, 29 healthy younger controls and 18 patients with glaucoma.

Thrips can damage over 200 species across 62 plant families, causing significant economic losses worldwide. Their tiny size, rapid reproduction, and wide host range make them prone to outbreaks, necessitating precise and efficient population monitoring methods. Existing intelligent counting methods lack effective solutions for tiny pests like thrips.

Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for transplant and immunocompromised patients. While cell-mediated immunity (CMI) is crucial for control of CMV and can influence the management of patients, commercial kits to measure CMI responses have only recently become available. In this study, we evaluated 2 different test kit platforms to determine their performance with the aim of implementing CMV-CMI testing to serve local needs.
