Currently in Korea, standard operating procedure for the analyses of phenolic compounds in water is the spectrometric comparison of colors developed by 4-amino antipyrin with phenolic compounds. It is however that this method cannot identify individual compound and that some phenolic compounds do not react with 4-amino antipyrin. Spectrometric determinations of phenolic compounds were compared with chromatographic analyses of gas chromatography (GC) and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) of various phenolic compounds. Individual phenolic compounds could be determined by both chromatographic methods but HPLC methods were more precise with lower detection levels in general.

Objective : This study aimed to compare the difference between $Angelica$ $decursiva$, Peucedanum $praeruptorum$ and $Anthriscus$ $sylvestris$ which have been used as herbal medicine, Jeonho (Angelicae Decursivae Radix) in Korea and provided the evidence to exclude $A.$ $sylvestris$ not to use as Joenho. Methods : The similarities of original medicinal herb with samples from local market were evaluated including morphological appearance and chromatographic fingerprint. In addition, relation between original medicinal herb and local samples were analyzed using statistical clustering methods. Results : $A.$ $decursiva$, $P.$ $praeruptorum$ and $A.$ $sylvestris$ represented different morphological appearances and chromatographic fingerprint. Several samples from China exhibited similar morphological and chromatographic appearance with $A.$ $decursiva$ or $P.$ $praeruptorum$. Eleven samples from Korea showed identical similarity to $A.$ $sylvestris$. Conclusions : Since $A.$ $sylvestris$ represented obvious differences compared to $A.$ $decursiva$ and $P.$ $praeruptorum$, it is required not to use $A.$ $sylvestris$ as medicinal herb, Jeonho. Additionally, exact identification and quality control must be applied to $A.$ $decursiva$ or $P.$ $praeruptorum$ from China in order to maintain therapeutical efficacy.

The demand for rare-earth elements (REEs) is increasing owing to their significance as prominent materials in electronics, high-tech industries, geological research, nuclear forensics, and environmental monitoring. In general, the utilization of REEs in various applications requires the use of chromatographic techniques to separate individual elements. However, REEs have similar physicochemical properties, which makes them difficult to separate. Recently, several studies have examined the separation of REEs using LN resin as the stationary phase and aqueous nitric acid and hydrochloric acid solutions as eluents. Using this method, light REEs have been separated using dilute acid solutions as the eluent, whereas heavy REEs are separated using solutions with high acid concentrations. To increase the separation resolution between different REEs, either the column length or resin size is changed. In addition, the suggested methods are implemented to decrease the analysis time. This review presents technical information on the chromatographic separation of REEs using the LN resin and discusses the optimal experimental conditions.

A gas chromatographic determination of dienestrol in dienestrol cream has been studied. Dienestrol cream was dissolved in pyridine and silylation was done by using N, O-bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide. The derivative was injected into 3% silicone OV-17 column for chromatographic estimation. The dienestrol peak was found to be well separated from the other components of the cream. The detection limit was obtained to be $5.6{\times}10^{11}$ mol of dienestrol for this method. As there is no need for prior separation procedure, this experiment is extremely simple and less time consuming as compared to the conventional methods for estimation of dienestrol in cream.

Chromatography has been method of choice for the separation complex biologi-cal mixtures fro analytical purpose, particularly for the last fifty years. Its use has recently been extended to preparative separation where the productivity relative to the amount of resin and sol-vent used is a matter of concern. To overcome the inherent thermodynamic inefficiency of batch chromatography, as exemplified by the partial temporal usage of the resin and dilution of the product with the solvent, chromatography has been continually modified by separation engineers. Column switching and recycling represnet some of the process modifications that have brought high productivity to chromatography. Recently, the simulated moving bed (SMB) method, which claims a high separation efficiency based on counter-current moving bed chromatography. has be-come the mainstay of preparative separation, especially in chiral separation. Accordingly, this pa-per reviews the current status of SMB along with several chromatographic modification, which may be helpful in routine laboratory and industrial chromatographic practices.

Background: The separation of isomeric compounds from a mixture is a recurring problem in chemistry and phytochemistry research. The purification of pharmacologically active ginsenoside Rb₃ from ginseng extracts is limited by the co-existence of its isomer Rb₂. The aim of the present study was to develop an enzymatic elimination-combined purification method to obtain pure Rb₃ from a mixture of isomers. Methods: To isolate Rb₃ from the isomeric mixture, a simple enzymatic selective elimination method was used. A ginsenoside-transforming glycoside hydrolase (Bgp2) was employed to selectively hydrolyze Rb₂ into ginsenoside Rd. Ginsenoside Rb₃ was then efficiently separated from the mixture using a traditional chromatographic method. Results: Chromatographic purification of Rb₃ was achieved using this novel enzymatic elimination-combined method, with 58.6-times higher yield and 13.1% less time than those of the traditional chromatographic method, with a lower minimum column length for purification. The novelty of this study was the use of a recombinant glycosidase for the selective elimination of the isomer. The isolated ginsenoside Rb₃ can be used in further pharmaceutical studies. Conclusions: Herein, we demonstrated a novel enzymatic elimination-combined purification method for the chromatographic purification of ginsenoside Rb₃. This method can also be applied to purify other isomeric glycoconjugates in mixtures.

The micro-assay methods of vanillin have been shown quite few, though several methods have been introduced for determination. A new sensitive micro-determination of vanillin, applying the yellow color reaction of vanillin and anillin, is shown in this paper. The absorption maximum of the yellow coloring matter, 4-Oxy-3-methoxy-henzal aniline, was 435 mu. The one dimensional ascending paper chromatographic method is applyed for isolation of vanillin from the mixed sample. The microdetection of vanillin is studied only in this paper. Vanillin was detected by the yellow spot on paper trip by the coloring reagent of aniline after several hours paper strip chromatographic at the following condition; paper strip ................ 2.5 X 35cm Whatman Filter Paper No.2 developing Solvent ......... petroleum-benzene-methanol n-butanol-water coloring agent ............. aniline. The Rf-value on petroleum benzene and methanol was 0.63 and that on n-butanol and water was 0.90. The minimum detectable amount of vanillin by this method was 10 micrograms. It is recommendable, if interference substances as aromatic aldehydes present, that the application of this aniline reaction and Foline Denis reaction on the same paper chromatogram is appreciable.

Soil air $CO_2$ concentrations were measured in two soil depths (O and B horizon) by (1) the use of the Draeger direct reading chromatographic tubes and (2) syringe gas collections with gas chromatographic detection in a Spodosol supporting low elevation, commercial spruce-fir forest, Maine, USA, Mean soil air $CO_2$ concentrations(%) during the growing season of 1991 ranged from 0.11 in the O horizon by the Draeger method to 0.29 in the B horizon by the gas chromatographic method. Soil air $CO_2$ concentrations by the Draeger method were lower than those obtained using the gas chromatographic method for both soil horizons. However, data from the two methods were significantly(p<0.01) correlated and paralleled each other relative to temporal patterns. Positive and highly significant correlations existed between soil air $CO_2$ concentrations and soil temperature, although correlation coefficients only ranged from 0.13 to 0.32, depending on the method and horizon chosen.
