Metabolism study of the dye, benzidine, was performed by gas chromatography-mass selective detector (GC/MSD) in the urine of rats orally administered 100 mg/kg benzidine. Urine samples were collected in metabolic cages for 0-24, 24-48, and 48-72 hrs. Ten ml of the urine was extracted with XAD-2 resin and the XAD-2 column was eluted with methanol. After evaporation, benzidine and its metabolites were extracted with diethyl ether (for non-conjugated fraction). For conjugated metabolites, $\beta$-glucu-ronidase was added to the aqueous layer that was incubated for 1 hr at 5$0^{\circ}C$ and the aqueous layer was extracted as in non-conjugated fraction. Aliquot of trimethylsilylated derivatives was applied to the GC/MSD. The mutagenicity of benzidine and its acetylated metabolites was tested by histidine/reversion assay. Five metabolites observed and confirmed either by electron impact and chemical ionization modes of the GC/MSD, or authentic compounds were monoacetyl-, diacetyl-, hydroxyacetyl-, hydroxydiacetyl-, and hydroxy-benzidine. Monoacetyl-benzidine was more potent than benzidine in histidine/reversion assay. This data indicates that monoacetylation of benzidine may be one of the metabolites produced in metabolic activation process.

This study was performed to analyze the purity of technical grade ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine, to establish optimal analytical condition of ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine in urine and to determine the urine sample of workers exposed to ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine. The purity of technical grade ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine were $96.5{\pm}2.38%$, $94.1{\pm}0.97%$, $97.0{\pm}0.02%$ by gas chromatography-mass selective detector. To analyze ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine in urine, high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detector and gas chromatography-electron capture detector operating conditions have been optimized by preliminary expriment. In high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detector, the mobile phase was consisted of acetonitrile(35%) and water(65%), and the flow rate was maintained at 1.0ml per minute. Optimal detective condition was 9.0V(10nA/V) of electrochemical detector. The recovery of sep-pak treatment method was highly estimated as pretreatment of ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine in urine. The free amine was isolated by gas chromatography-electron capture detector after basic hydrosis, sep-pak treatment, toluene elution and HFBA(heptafluoro-butyric anhydride) derivatization of urine. The recovery of ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine in urine was $98.73{\pm}3.29%$ by gas chromatography-electron capture detector. The sensitivity was more higher than that of high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detector. Urinary ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine was detected in only one worker among nine workers. The level of ${\alpha}$-naphthylamine in urine was 6.42 ng/ml.

To investigate the optimum condition of 3-monochloro-1, 2-propanediol(MCPD) analysis, gas chromatography with electron capture detector was used. Determination of MCPD derivatized with phenylboric acid was more effective than that of underivatized MCPD. In derivatization of MCPD with phenyl boric acid, there were no significantly different between boiling for 2min at 9$0^{\circ}C$ and vortexing for 5min at room temperature. Extrelut column was suitable for extraction of MCPD diluted in 20% NaCl solution and recovery rates were higher than direct extraction of MCPD with ethyl acetate. But, the method of direct extraction of MCPD with ethyl acetate was useful for rapid ants qualitative analysis. The sample extracted in soysauce(ganjang) was derivatized with phenylboric acid and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass selective detector. That was confirmed as MCPD-phenylboronate.

Combinatorial homoserine lactone mixtures and individual products were obtained from the methionine-functionalized resin in solid-phase synthesis. The four-step process consisting of a coupling step of an N-Fmoc-L-methionine, deprotection of N-Fmoc group, N-coupling with a carboxylic acid, and cleavage reaction through a polymer supported strategy is described. Gas chromatography-mass selective detector (GC-MSD) techniques provide the most powerful methods for identifying both the combinatorial mixtures and individual products.

A simple and specific method for determination of methyltestosterone (MT) has been established by a gas chromatography/mass selective detector and applied in plasma of healthy male volunteers received a single oral dose of 50 mg MT $(Testo^{TM}\;tablets,\;25\;mg)$ for bioavailability test. This method involves using liquid-liquid extraction of the sample with diethyl ether and derivatization with MSTFA. MT showed good resolution in this condition. The detection limit of quantitation was 5 ng/ml. A good linearity (r>0.996) was obtained at the range of 5-250 ng/ml of MT. Intra-day precision and accuracy were 2.76-12.56% and 0.39-8.01 %, and inter-day precision and accuracy were 2.29-17.69% and 0.42-7.99%, respectively. The established method was applied on bioavailability test of MT in human volunteers. The value of $AUC_{0\;to\;last}$ to last was $264.5{\pm}123.9\;ng{\cdot}hr/ml$ and that of $AUC_{0\;to\;inf}$ was determined to be $275.2{\pm}126.5\;ng{\cdot}hr/ml$. The values of $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were $95.9{\pm}67.1\;ng/ml$ and $1.13{\pm}0.9\;hr$, respectively. The mean elimination half-life $(t_{1/2})$ was $4.4{\pm}0.9\;hr$. This analytical method is suitable and useful for the pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence studies of MT.

Stanozolol (STZ, 17$\alpha$-methyl-17$\beta$-hydroxy-5$\alpha$-androstano-(3,2-c) pyrazole), an anabolic steroid, is an abused drug by body-builders or atheletes, as well as medicine for treatment of aplastic anemia and vascular thrombosis. In human volunteers, the major urinary metabolite of STZ was reported to be 3'-hydroxystanozolol that was identified by gas chromatography-mass selective detector (GC/MSD). The objective of this experiment is to investigate the in vitro metabolism of STZ in liver S-9 faction of polychlorinated biphenyl-induced rats. Reaction mixture including STZ as substrate and the S-9 faction was extracted with diethyl ether and quantified by the selected ion monitoring mode of GC/MSD. The selected concentration of substrate STZ is 100 nmole and the selected time for incubation in the reaction mixture was determined to 60 min. The amount of 3'-hydroxystanozolol produced was increased by about 6-fold in the reaction medium including the liver S-9 fraction of polychlorinated biphenyl-induced rats, compared to that of untreated rats. Inhibitors of cytochrome P450, SKF-525A and 7,8-benzoflavone, decreased the production of 3'-hydroxystanozolol by about 89~100% and 65~75%, respectively; In conclusion, hydroxylation of STZ into 3'-hydroxystanozolol is confirmed by GC/MSD and is catalyzed by cytochrome P450.
