This study developed effective assay method of pharmaceutical quality control was developed by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The calibration equation model of assay was developed by 2nd deriviative PLS(Partial Least Squares) regression method with NIRS over the wavelength range from 1100 to 1400nm using diazepam tablets (2mg, 5mg). Although diazepam tablets are made by 5-different manufacture, they have similar formulation. When the correlation was compared with values by NIRS and HPLC, the R-2s and standard error of calibration (SEC) for 2mg were 0.9300 and 0.98%, the R-2s and SEC for 5mg were 0.9165 and 0.63%. The validation of the calibration equation model yield that the R-2s and standard error of prediction (SEP) for 2mg were 0.9611 and 0.995%, the R-2s and SEP for 5mg were 0.9114 and 0.842%. The method was validated on assay method for diazepam tablets by the calibration equation.

Animal glue has been used as a binder in Dancheong since the Joseon dynasty. Binders play an important role in determining the physical characteristics of a painting layer. The analysis of binders can be used to identify the materials and techniques used in traditional Dancheong. Binders can be investigated using physicochemical component analyses methods such as gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, but the detection characteristics vary depending on the degradation properties of the pigment and binder. Therefore, cross-validation using a combination of physicochemical analysis and enzyme immunoassay is used to increase the reliability of the results. In this study, we present an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as an example of an enzyme immunoassay as a method for analyzing animal glue, a traditional binder used in Korea. The applicability of ELISA was tested using commercial animal glue, in addition to animal glue produced using a variety of extraction conditions. The animal glue was analyzed in a Noerok-additionally coated-replica sample to evaluate the possibility of analyzing the animal glue in a paint layer mixed with pigment. Based on the results, we performed an assay on the use of animal glue in the Dancheong sample of the temples of the Joseon dynasty, that are estimated to have been built in the 17^th century.

Currently nonaqueous titration method for the assay method using the hazardous reagent, mercury acetate for difemerine hydrochloride has been used in Korean Pharmaceutical Codex. We developed an alternative titration assay method by substituting the use of the hazardous reagent, mercury acetate to the use of less toxic ones like ethyl alcohol. The linearity of the calibration curves in the desired concentration range was good (r>0.999). Precision was less than 0.64%. Accuracy was obtained with recoveries in range of 99.10% and 99.71%. The developed assay could be expected to become valuable tools for revising the Korean Pharmaceutical Codex.

Biopharmaceuticals and the cell substrates used for their manufacture are currently tested for porcine adventitious viruses due to the widespread use of porcine trypsin in cell culture. Porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus (PTGV) is one of the major adventitious porcine viruses causing contaminated during the manufacture of biopharmaceuticals. Therefore, rapid and sensitive detection of PTGV is essential in ensuring the safety of biopharmaceuticals. A TaqMan probe real-time RT-PCR method was developed for the quantitative detection of PTGV contamination in cell substrates, raw materials, manufacturing processes, and final products, as well as PTGV clearance validation. Specific primers for the amplification of PTGV RNA were selected, and PTGV RNA was quantified by use of a specific TaqMan probe. Specificity, limit of detection (LOD), and robustness of the method was validated according to international guidelines on the validation of nucleic acid amplification tests. The sensitivity of the assay was calculated to be 1.10 × 10⁰ TCID₅₀/ml. The real-time RT-PCR method was validated to be reproducible, very specific to PTGV, and robust. The established real-time RT-PCR assay was successfully applied to the validation of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO)-K1 cells artificially infected with PTGV.

The data integration with modeled predictions (DIMP) model is a promising inverse radiation transport method for solving the special nuclear material (SNM) holdup problem. Unlike previous methods, DIMP is a completely passive nondestructive assay technique that requires no initial assumptions regarding the source distribution or active measurement time. DIMP predicts the most probable source location and distribution through Bayesian inference and quasi-Newtonian optimization of predicted detector responses (using the adjoint transport solution) with measured responses. DIMP performs well with forward hemispherical collimation and unshielded measurements, but several considerations are required when using narrow-view collimated detectors. DIMP converged well to the correct source distribution as the number of synthetic responses increased. DIMP also performed well for the first experimental validation exercise after applying a collimation factor, and sufficiently reducing the source search volume's extent to prevent the optimizer from getting stuck in local minima. DIMP's simple point detector response function (DRF) is being improved to address coplanar false positive/negative responses, and an angular DRF is being considered for integration with the next version of DIMP to account for highly collimated responses. Overall, DIMP shows promise for solving the SNM holdup inverse problem, especially once an improved optimization algorithm is implemented.

NIRS(Near infrared spectroscopy) scanning from 1300nm to 2400nm was appl ied for the DEHP(di-(2 ethylhexyl)phthalate) in PVC(polyvinyl chloride_packing material. All samples were devided into calibration group and validation group. As a result of conduction the multiple regression analysis on the correlation between the NIR spectrum data and chemical assay value obtained by the Korea Food Sanitation Act. The validation model for measuring the DEHP content had R of 0.997, SEC of 0.132, SEP of 0.176 by MLR and R of 0.996, SEC of 0.142, SEP of 0.198 by PLS and the detection limit was 0.1%. The obtained results indicate that the NIR procedure can potentially be used as a nondestructive analysis method for the purpose of rapid and simple measurement of DEHP in PVC packing material.

A simple, accurate and reproducible Capillary electrophoresis (CE) assay has been developed for the determination of baicalin, baicalein, wogonin and chrysin in Scutellaria baicalensis. Successful separation of these compounds has been obtained in 35 mM phosphate butter (pH 7.0) using a untreated fused silica capillary ($57{\;}cm{\times}75{\;}{\mutextrm{m}}$ i.d.) at $25^{\circ}C$ with the electric field of 19kV. Baicalin, baicalein wogonin and chrysin was separated and detected at 280 nm 13 min. The detection limits of CE were acceptable compared to HPLC. Reproducibilities of migration time and peak area were 0.66~1.11% (within-run), 2.18~3.38% (between-run) and 3.50~4.55% (within-run), 3.97~4.82%(between-run) at CE. The results indicate that CE could be a promising technique for quality and quantity control analysis of Scutellaria baicalensis as a validation method.

The venom of honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) is used to treat many diseases because of its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Bee venom consists of several biologically active molecules and exhibits remarkable anti-cancer effects. However, biological amines, which exhibit diverse functionality such as anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, have not been previously reported in bee venom. In this study, we determined the content of putrescine in bee venom by using ultra-performance liquid chromatography. The specificity, accuracy, and precision of the assay were assessed, and the assay validated. The linearity of the putrescine assay was r ≥ 0.99, indicating a moderate level of putrescine in the bee venom. The limit of detection and limit of quantification were both 0.9 ㎍/mL, while the rate of recovery was 96.4%-99.9%. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of the intra-day precision and inter-day precision of the putrescine assay were 0.16% - 0.23% and 0.09% - 0.36%, respectively, with the RSD ≤ 5% indicating excellent precision. Thus, the linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, and recovery rate of the putrescine assay were satisfactory. The analysis of the bee venom showed that the putrescine content was 3.1 ± 0.09 mg/g. This study provides fundamental data on putrescine content in bee venom, which will prove useful in further studies of its bioactivity.

Bovine blood, cell, tissue, and organ are used as raw materials for manufacturing biopharmaceuticals, tissue engineered products, and cell therapy. Manufacturing processes for the biologicals using bovine materials have the risk of viral contamination. Therefore viral validation is, essential in ensuring the safety of the products. Bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1) is the most common bovine pathogen found in bovine blood, cell, tissue, and organ. In order to establish the validation system for the BHV-1 safety of the products, a real-time PCR method was developed for quantitative detection of BHV-1 in raw materials, manufacturing processes, and final products as well as BHV-1 clearance validation. Specific primers for amplification of BHV-1 DNA was selected, and BHV-1 DNA was quantified by use of SYBR Green I. The sensitivity of the assay was calculated to be $2\;TCID_{50}/ml$. The real-time PCR method was validated to be reproducible and very specific to BHV-1. The established real-time PCR assay was successfully applied to the validation of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell artificially infected with BHV-1. BHV-1 DNA could be quantified in CHO cell as well as culture supernatant. Also the real-time PCR assay could detect $10\;TCID_{50}/ml$ of BHV-1 artificially contaminated in bovine collagen. The overall results indicated that this rapid, specific, sensitive, and robust assay can be reliably used for quantitative detection of BHV-1 contamination during the manufacture of biologics.
