The present invention provides: an assay method that uses a compound represented by formula (I) as a fluorescent probe molecule and that is for detecting the lipid peroxidation suppression activity of a test compound; an assay kit that uses the assay method; a screening method that uses the assay method; and a pharmaceutical composition that is for the treatment, etc. of diseases (such as age-related macular degeneration) that are induced by lipid peroxidation reactions. ##STR00001##

According to a production method for a brain organoid, comprising a step 1 of carrying out suspension culture of human pluripotent stem cells having a mutation in at least one or more base sequences in an exon selected from the group consisting of an exon 9, an exon 10, an exon 11, an exon 12, and an exon 13 of a microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) gene, and having a mutation in at least one or more base sequences in an intron 10 of the MAPT gene, it is possible to produce a brain organoid having a phosphorylated 3-repeat tau protein and a phosphorylated 4-repeat tau protein.

Herein disclosed are biorelevant dissolution media using a phosphonocholic acid salt in combination with a polysorbate. This tailor-made combination of surface-active agents apparently forms mixed micelles similar to those formed in the currently available biorelevant media, is faster and easier to prepare, forms reproducible and consistent dissolution media, and compares well with the predictive properties of currently available biorelevant dissolution media and thus is useful to predict the in vivo behavior of dosage forms of poorly water-soluble drugs.

Disclosed is a detection method for quality grade of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), including: detecting the levels of quality control index components of TCM and efficacy-related in vitro activity by establishing a correlation between principal components of TCM and in vitro activity; determining the state of sample cluster by principal component analysis; constructing a logistic regression model of quality grade versus index components and bioactivity and establishing corresponding grade detection formulas of Chinese medicinal materials by fitting a large number of sample data for Chinese medicinal materials from different places of origin and batches. The method of the present invention realizes the mathematical expression of a standard for quality difference of TCM, and provides a feasible solution for the industrialized evaluation of quality grades of Chinese medicinal materials or herbal slices finally.
