The roots of Lythrum salicaria L. were extracted in 80% aqueous MeOH and the concentrated extract was fractionated with EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_2O$, successively. The repeated silicagel and octadecyl $SiO_2$ column chromatographies of the EtOAc fractions led to isolation of an antioxidant compound and two major compounds. From the results of spectral data and the chemical characteristics including nuclear magnetic resonance, MS, and IR, the structures of compounds were determind as myricetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (1), oleanolic acid (2), betulinic acid (3). This is the first reported isolation of compounds (1, 2) from L. salicaria. Compound 1 as well as EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_2O$ solvent fractions were evaluated for 2,2-dipicryl-1-phenylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity.

The principle of Fourier Transform Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and its usefulness in the fields of pharmacy and biological sciences are described. 1. The $^1H\;and\;^{13}C$ NMR spectra of triostin A and its mixture with purine derivatives were taken. From the analysis of the spectra it has established that triostin A, which exists in two symmetric conformers in chloroform solution, forms complexes only with purine derivatives by the participation of one of the conformers. 2. Also, the $^{13}C$ NMR spectra of "intact" substances in the field of pharmacognosy were taken. From the spectra it was suggested that the method is very useful for natural product research in cooperation with the chemical method.

Absorption characteristics of 2-methylpiperidine (2MPD), 3-methylpiperidine (3MPD) and 4-methylpiperidine (4MPD) absorbents were studied by a vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) apparatus and a differential reaction calorimeter (DRC). Using a VLE apparatus, the $CO_2$ loading capacity of each absorbent was estimated. After reaching the absorption equilibrium, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) had been conducted to characterize the species distribution of the ($H_2O$-piperidine-$CO_2$) system. Using a DRC, the reaction of heat was confirmed in accordance with the absorption capacity. The unique characteristics of 2MPD, 3MPD and 4MPD absorbents appeared by the position of methyl group. The 2MPD possessing the methyl group at the ortho position showed its hindrance effect during the absorption process; however, piperidine derivatives possessing the meta position and para position did not show its characteristics in $H_2O$-piperidine-$CO_2$ system.

Membrane disruption by an antimicrobial peptide, protegrin-1 (PG-1), was investigated by measuring the $^2H$ solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectra of 1-palmitoyl-$d_{31}$-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (POPC_$d_{31}$) in the mixture of PG-1 and POPC_$d_{31}$ lipids deposited on thin cover-glass plates. The experimental line shapes of anisotropic $^2H$ SSNMR spectra measured at various peptide-to-lipid (P/L) ratios were simulated reasonably by assuming the mosaic spread of bilayers containing pore structures or the coexistence of the mosaic spread of bilayers and a fast-tumbling isotropic phase. Within a few days of incubation in the hydration chamber, the pores were formed by the peptide in the POPC_$d_{31}$ and POPC_$d_{31}$/cholesterol membranes. However, the formation of the pores was not clear in the POPC_$d_{31}$/1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylglycerol (POPG) membrane. Over a hundred days after hydration, a rapidly rotating isotropic phase increased in the POPC_$d_{31}$ and the POPC_$d_{31}$/cholesterol membranes with the higher P/L ratios, but no isotropic phase appeared in the POPC_$d_{31}$/POPG membrane. Cholesterol added in the POPC bilayer acted as a stabilizer of the pore structure and suppressed the formation of a fast-tumbling isotropic phase.

In the group of commonly prescribed β-blocker drugs, one of the enantiomers is generally relatively more active than the others. This study aims to develop a technique for the chiral analysis of select β-blockers based on proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) spectrometry. (S)-2-Tert-butyl-2-methyl-1,3-benzodioxole-4-carboxylic acid ((S)-TBMB) was synthesized and utilized as a chiral derivatizing agent. Pure β-blocker enantiomers were isolated from racemates by semi-preparative liquid chromatography prior to derivatization. The reaction time and concentration of (S)-TBMB were controlled to improve the derivatization procedure. No racemization was found during the analysis. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis was also performed for comparative purposes. High agreement between the NMR and HPLC methods was achieved in the determination of (R)-metoprolol in a standard solution of the (S) isomer.

In this study, we modified silica nanoparticles with bis[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine (BTPED) silane coupling agent, which has two secondary amino groups in a molecule, to introduce amino groups on the silica surface. After modification of silica, we used acrylate group containing 3-(acryloyloxy)-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (AHM) to introduce polymerizable methacrylate groups by Michael addition reaction. We used Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental analysis (EA) and liquid and solid state cross polarization magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) to understand the reactions between N-H groups of BTPED modified silica surface and acrylate groups of AHM monomer. We confirmed Michael addition reaction between BTPED modified silica and AHM completed in 2 hr reaction time. We also found increased methacrylate group introduction with increase of mol ratio of the acrylate group of AHM to N-H group of BTPED modified silica by increase of C=O peak area of measured FTIR spectra. These results were also supported by EA and solid state $^{13}C$ and $^{29}Si$ NMR results.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to prospectively investigate the value of the myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV) in predicting myocardial functional outcome after revascularization of coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO). Materials and Methods: Thirty patients with CTO underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) before and 6 months after revascularization. Three baseline markers of functional outcome were evaluated in the dysfunctional segments assigned to the CTO vessels: ECV, transmural extent of infarction (TEI), and unenhanced rim thickness (RIM). At the global level, the ECV values of the whole myocardium with and without a hyperenhanced region (global and remote ECV) were respectively measured. Results: In per-segment analysis, ECV was superior to TEI and RIM in predicting functional recovery (area under receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC]: 0.86 vs. 0.75 and 0.73, all p values < 0.010), and it emerged as the only independent predictor of regional functional outcome (odds ratio [OR] = 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.77-0.89; p < 0.001) independent of collateral circulation. In per-patient analysis, global baseline ECV was indicative of ejection fraction (EF) at the follow-up examination (β = -0.61, p < 0.001) and changes in EF (β = -0.57, p = 0.001) in multivariate regression analysis. A patient with global baseline ECV less than 30.0% (AUC, 0.93; sensitivity 94%, specificity 80%) was more likely to demonstrate significant EF improvement (OR: 0.38; 95% CI: 0.17-0.85; p = 0.019). Conclusion: Extracellular volume fraction obtained by CMR may provide incremental value for the prediction of functional recovery both at the segmental and global levels in CTO patients, and may facilitate the identification of patients who can benefit from revascularization.

Since the side effects of contrast agents occur in many ways, hospitals must clearly identify the contrast agents and know how to manage them. Storage of contrast media It is common practice to store contrast media in a warm room to reduce viscosity and improve patient comfort. However, it is important to recognize that long-term storage at high temperatures can shorten the shelf life of a product. Therefore, in this study, the presence or absence of chemical changes according to the storage period after using the contrast medium was analyzed. As the analysis equipment, a 500 MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer of Bruker Avance (Germany) possessed by Korea Basic Science Institute (KOREA BASIC SCIENCE INSTITUTE; KBSI) was used. For the X-ray iodide contrast medium, Pamiray contrast medium of Iopamidol and Optiray contrast medium of Ioversol, samples remaining after 7 days, 20 days, 30 days, and 1 year were collected, By acquiring the spectrum from the 1H-NMR spectrometer of the contrast medium stimulated by It was compared and analyzed with the standard sample. In conclusion, depending on the storage period of the contrast medium, no peaks of physical and chemical changes were observed in both the Pamiray contrast medium of Iopamidol and the Optiray contrast medium of Ioversol after 7 days, 20 days, 30 days, and 1 year after use.

In this work, the effect of low-temperature dehydration of a poly(styrene-co-styrenesulfonic acid) (PSSA) membrane was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), electron magnetic resonancespectroscopy (EMR), and $^1H$- and $^{13}C$ solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. These analyses were performed at room temperature for powdered PSSA specimens with and without dehydration and the following key observations were made. First, FT-IR analysis showed that low-temperature dehydration not only transformed the [${SO_3}^-{\cdots}H^+$] ionic pair in the non-hydrated PSSA to an $SO_3H$ group, but also induced the formation of -C=C- double bonds in the dehydrated PSSA. Second, the ${-SO_3}^{\bullet}$ radical was unambiguously identified by EMR spectroscopy. Third, H-abstraction was detected by $^1H$ magic-angle spinning spectroscopy. Finally, an unexpected color shift from white for the non-hydrated PSSA to a yellowish brown for the dehydrated sample was observed. In order to explain these experimental results, it was proposed that the formation of the intermediate hydrogen ($H^{\bullet}$) or hydroxyl radical ($HO^{\bullet}$) species was initiated by the dehydration process. The sespecies attacked the $SO_3H$ group and the tertiary proton at the ${\alpha}-carbon$, resulting in the formation of $-SO^{\bullet}$ radicals and -C=C- double bonds, which correlated with the color shift in the dehydrated PSSA sample. The semechanisms are useful for understanding the simultaneous loss of an aromatic ring and -SO- groups in the PSSA fuel cell membrane.

Two anthocyanins were isolated from 1% HCl-20% methanol extracts of KG 97287 black common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) using semipreparative, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The anthocyanins were identified using a combination of LC/ES-mass spectrometry (MS) and spectroscopic methods of UV-Vis, $^1H-$ and $^{13}C-$ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The chemical structures of these two anthocyanins were elucidated as delphinidin 3-glucoside and petunidin 3-glucoside and their contents in KG 97287 black common bean seed coats were determined to be $2.614{\pm}0.11$ and $0.167{\pm}0.01\;mg/g$, respectively. These contents were lower than reported internationally and we recommend the introduction into Korea of high anthocyanin varieties of black common bean.
