A repeated silica Rel column chromatography of n-BuOH fraction from the larva of Allomirina dichotoma afforded a purified nucleic acid, which was identified as inosine on the basis of the spectroscopic data including IR, MS and NMR. The HPLC analysis of the index component using silica based $NH_2$-column exhibited the contents in the hot air-dried and Far-IR-dried larvae of Allomirina dichotoma as 0.003% and 0.055%, respectively.

The flower of Campsis granudiflora K. Schum. was extracted with 80% aqueous MeOH, and the concentrated extract was partitioned with EtOAc, n-BuOH and $H_2O$. From the EtOAc fraction, four compounds were isolated through the repeated silica gel and ODS column chromatographies. From the result of physico-chemical data including NMR, MS and IR, the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as linolenic acid methyl ester, linoleic acid methyl ester, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ and daucosterol. Daucosterol inhibited FPTase activity with $IC_{50}$ values of $14{\pm}0.04\;{\mu}M$.

The MeOH extracts obtained from the tuber of Ipomoea batatas Lam. were solvent-fractionated with EtOAc, n-BuOH, and $H_2O$, respectively. From EtOAc fraction four different compounds were isolated through the repeated silica gel column chromatographies. From not only the results of NMR and MS data but also the adaptation of hydrolysis, methylation, and acetylation, the chemical structures of compounds were elucidated as resin glycoside, simonin I, ${\beta}-sitosterol$, and two kinds of unsaturated fatty acids.

An attempt was made in this study to analyze volatile flavor components of A. macrocephala Koidz. and A. lanacea DC. (Atractylodes japonica Koidzumi). Essential oils in A. macrocephala Koidz. and. A. lanacea DC. were isolated by a simultaneous steam distillation and extraction(SDE) method using n-pentane/diethy ether as solvent. A total of 30 and 28 components were identified by GC/MS from the essential oils of A. macrocephala Koidz. (18 hydrocarbons. 2 carbonyls, 5 alcohols, 5 esters) and A. lanacea DC.(14 hydrocarbons, 6 carbonyls, 4 alcohols, 3 esters, 1 acids), respectively. The major volatile flavor components in A. macrocephala Koidz. and A. lanacea DC. were furanodiene(27.9%, 15.7%), $\alpha$-cyperone(8.1%. 22.5% ), alloaromadendrene(2.9%, 4.7% ), (1,1-biphenyl)-4-carbon aldehyde 0%, 8.7% ) were found, respectively.

This study was carried out to evaluate the temporal variations of VOCs at an urban site, and to compare the concentrations of VOCs at an urban site in Daegu with those at a suburban site in Gyeongsan. Three hourly VOC samples in the ambient air were collected using a sequential tube sampler (STS 25, Perkin Elmer) throughout two weeks during May and July representing spring and summer seasons, respectively. The VOC concentrations were determined by an automatic thermal desorption apparatus with GC/MS analysis. A total of 12 VOCs of environmental concern were determined, which are chloroform, benzene, trichloroethylene, toluene, tetra-chloroethylene, ethylbenzene, m+p-xylenes, o-xylene, styrene, 1,3,5- and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzenes. Among 12 target VOCs, the most abundant compound appeared to be toluene, being followed by xylenes. The mean concentrations at the urbn site were 1.2 pub for benzene and 20.4 ppb for toluene (n=221) while the mean levels at the suburban site were 0.9 ppb and 4.3 ppb for benzene and toluene (n=96), respectively. The urban site concentrations were typically several-fold higher than those measured at the suburban site. It was found that general trends of VOC levels were significantly dependent on traffic conditions at the sampling site since VOC concentrations were at their maximum during rush hours, i.e. $9{\sim}12a.m$ and $6{\sim}9p.m$. Statistical investigations were conducted to investigate any significant relationships between VOC concentrations and affecting factors. Calculated correlation coefficients among VOCs were positively significant at a level of 0.05 in most cases. Increased concentrations of toluene in the urban site were estimated to reflect the effect of large industrial sources, mainly from textile industry.

The flower of Erigeron annuus L. was extracted with 80% aqueous MeOH, and the concentrated extract was partitioned with EtOAc, n-BuOH and $H_2O$, successively. From the EtOAc fraction, three compounds were isolated through the repeated silica gel, ODS column and high performance liquid chromatographies. From the result of physico-chemical data including NMR, MS and IR, the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as ${\alpha}-amyrenone,\;{\alpha}-amyrin\;and\;{\beta}-amyrin$. These three compounds were isolated for the first time from the flower of Erigeron annuus L.

Plant regeneration from seed-derived callus of Kentucky bluegrass(Poa pratensis L. cv. Kenblue) was investigated. Callus induced on the medium supplemented with 2 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.2 mg/L BAP showed highest frequency of plant regeneration on the regeneration medium supplemented with 1 mg/L NAA and 5 mg/L kinetin. Callus induced in the dark condition showed higher regenerability than that induced in the dim light. MS medium was better than N6 and B5 medium in enhancing plant regeneration. Maltose was superior to sucrose in plant regeneration as carbon source in the medium.

A bioequivalence study of Lovastati $n^{TM}$ tablets (Dong Sung Pharmaceutical Co., Korea) to Mevaco $r^{TM}$ tablets (Choong Wae Pharmaceutical Co., Korea) was conducted according to the guidelines (No. 98-56) of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Each tablet contained 20 mg of lovastatin. Eighteen healthy Korean male subjects received each formulation at a lovastatin dose of 80 mg (i.e., four tablets) in a 2 $\times$ 2 crossover study. There was a washout period of a week between the dose of the two formulations. Plasma concentrations of lovastatin acid were monitored by a GC/MS method for over a period of 12hr after each administration. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 12hr (AUC) was calculated by a linear trapezoidal method. The maximum plasma drug concentration ( $C_{max}$) and the time to reach $C_{max}$ ( $T_{max}$) were compiled from the plasma drug concentration-time data. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) of these parameters revealed that there are no differences in AUC and $C_{max}$ between the formulations. The apparent differences between the formulations in these parameters were 4.87 and 8.03% for AUC and $C_{max}$, respectively. Minimum detectable differences (%) at $\alpha$=0.1 and 1-$\beta$=0.8 were 17.84 and 15.36% for AUC and $C_{max}$ respectively. The 90% confidence intervals were -15.30~5.56 and -17.02-0.95% for AUC and $C_{max}$, respective1y. Thus, the criteria of the KFDA guidelines for the bioequivalence was satisfied, indicating Mevaco $r^{TM}$ tablets and Dong Sung Lovastati $n^{TM}$ tablets are bioequivalent.ivalent.ent.alent.ent.
