Arthroscopic Treatment of Focal Chondral Defects in the Hip Joint With Autologous Minced Cartilage, Allograft Cartilage Extracellular Matrix, and Platelet‐Rich Plasma

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Focal chondral defects (FCDs) are often encountered during hip arthroscopy for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement. Historically, arthroscopic treatment for FCDs in the hip joint has revolved around microfracture, though recent evidence has showed inferior outcomes with this approach. Open cartilage repair procedures in the hip joint

Determination of Flunixin Meglumine in Veterinary Pharmaceutical Formulations by Capillary Electrophoresis With Capacitively Coupled Contactless Conductivity Detection

ELECTROPHORESIS, EarlyView.
A CE‐C4D method was developed for the indirect determination of flunixin meglumine (FM) by quantifying meglumine and using lithium ions as an internal standard. The method allows the use of a low‐cost standard reagent, providing suitable analytical performance for the determination of FM in veterinary pharmaceutical formulations.
