A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of aloesin in plasma was developed. After solid-phase extraction from plasma and derivatization of aloesin and compound AD-1, which was prepared from aloesin as a internal standard, with 9-anthroylnitrile in the presence of quinuclidine, the derivatives were separated on a Inertsil ODS-3 column using acetonitrile/methanol/water (3:1:6) as a mobile phase, and detected fluorimetrically at 460nm with excitation at 360nm. The detection limit of aloesin was 3.2ng/ml in plasma (S/N=3).

Antimicrobial substances were screened by paper disk plate method in marine sponges, Halichondria okadai, Halichendria sp., H iaponica and Haliclona Pemollis, collected from the south coast of Korea. Antibacterial components were detected in two species, H okadai and Halichondria sp.. Three components such as benzoic acid, okadaic acid(OA) and dinophysistoxin-1(DTX1) were identified from these sponges as the antimicrobial compounds by MS and NMR spectral data. OA$(550{\~}600{\mu}g/kg)$ and $(400{\~}490{\mu}g/kg)$ were determined from the wet H okadai and Halichondria sp., respectively, by using fluorometric HPLC analysis with 9-anthryldiazomethane(ADAM) as fluorescent labelling reagent.
