You are working in a Drug Discovery Center, and your group developed several active compounds for different cardiovascular disorders. After screening these compounds, two had better pharmacological effects in in vitro studies, and your group wants to test them in vivo. Before planning the in vivo study, your manager assigned you to study their long-term stability (at least two years) in solution and plasma at -4 °C, room temperature, and -20 °C. Please explain your inclusive proposals (experiment design, instrumental and analytical method, etc. and how you will collect the data and analyze them) for studying each of these compounds (10 points for each compound with a total of 20 points).
