The crude bioflavonoids were obtained by methanol and butanol extraction from Iyophilized orange (Citrus sinensis) peel. And then, its yield was about 0.26% in dry base. Two bioflavonoids were purified by gel filtration and HPLC, and could be identified narirutin and hesperidin through TLC, HPLC, UV spertrum and NMR analysis. The yields of narirutin and hesperidin from a gram of crude bioflavonoids were 42mg and 530mg respectively, and the main fraction of bioflavonoid from orange peel was supposed to be hesperidin. Each component was intravenously injected into Sprague-Dawley rats (1mg/100g body weight) and hesperidin was found to lower their blood pressure significantly (p < 0.001).

A method is developed for simultaneously determining ethanol and acetic acid in vinegars by quantitative packed-column gas chromatography. Vinegars were filtrated and directly chromatographed on a $2\;m{\times}2\;mm$ stainless steel column packed with Tenax-GC, 80/100. Ethanol, isopropy alcohol as an internal standard, and acetic acid were completely separated within 20 min of running time without any interfering peaks. The accuracy of packed column gas solid chromatography (PCGSC) was discussed compared to the analytical data by titration, high performance liquid chromatography and capillary column gas liquid chromatography (CCGLC).

Adsorption isotherm is the most fundamental information in adsorption separation-process. Directly from the elution profile of a peak, the elution-curve method and frontal analysis(FA) were utilized to measure the adsorption isotherm in this work. Using RP-HPLC, sample and the buffer added in mobile phase were 5'-GMP and sodium phosphate, respectively. In this experimental condition, the retention time was decreased with increase in the injected mass of sample. And the front part of a peak was very stiff, so Langmuir adsorption isotherm might be applied. By the elution-curve method, the parameters used in the isotherm were obtained by optimization method, while by the FA, the concentrations of stationary phase were measured from the elution curve and the isotherm was determined by regression analysis. Compared to FA, the consumption of sample was less, and only one or two injections were needed by the elution-curve method. Finally, the effect of concentration of sodium phosphate in mobile phase on the parameters of the isotherm was investigated.

An on-line frontal analysis HPLC system was developed to determine the unbound concentration of (S)-perillyl alcohol, an potential anti-cancer agent, in human serum albumin (HSA) solution, The analysis was performed on a Develosil 100 Diol 5 (10 cm x 4.6 mm I.D.) high-performance frontal analysis (HPFA) column. Sodium phosphate solution was used as the mobile phase (pH 7.4, ionic strength 0.17) at a flow rate of 1 $m\ell$/min. UV wavelength was set at 205 nm. A injection volume of 600${mu}ell$ was chosen to ensure the compound eluted formed a zonal peak with a plateau. By Scatchard analysis, it was found that the binding constant(K) and binding number(n) of (S)-perillyl alcohol to molecular HSA were 2.05 x $10^6$ [$M{-1}$], 0.00428, respectively.

A phosphate solubilizing bacterium (PSB) possessing a high ability to solubilize hydroxyapatite (HA) was isolated from the rhizosphere of wheat. The PSB markedly developed clear zones after inoculating for 36 hours at $30^{\circ}C$. This bacterium was identified as Enterobacter agglomerans through API 20E system and Biolog$^{TM}$ analysis. The values of similarity and distance coefficient from authentication trial of the strain were 0.656 and 4.79 respectively. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of the products of this strain indicated that this strain excretes maily oxalic acid with som other organic acids. During the incubation period of E. agglomerans, the pH values showed an inverse correlation ($r^2=0.933^{**}$) with solubilization of inorganic phosphate. Acid phosphatase activity of the strain was 10-15 times greater than alkaline phosphatase activity. Alkaline phosphatase activity had almost constant near zero activity across time. The population of E. agglomerans greatly increased during the first day of inoculation ; however, it drastically decreased thereafter.

Frontal analysis(FA) and Pulsed input method(PIM) have been frequently utilized to measure isotherm of single solute, as well as non-competitive isotherms of two solutes in chromatography(1). FA and PIM were used in this study as complementary methods to measure adsorption isotherms of loxoprofen racemate in HPLC. Prior to FA and PIM experiments, measurements of loxoprofen solubility were made at hexane/ethanol=50/50, 80/20, 95/5(v/v) with acetic acid(0.5%) for adjusting pH. The last composition(95/5) of hexane/ethanol allows us to separate loxoprofen racemate into two forms(retentate, extract). PIM and FA were used to determine the isotherms of re-and ex-loxoprofen.

In clinical practice, homocysteine has gained popularity because its elevated values are strongly associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. More recently, a new enzymatic colorimetric assay for homocysteine in biological sample, suitable for automated clinical analyzers, has been proposed. To evaluate one of these enzymatic methods and compare the results obtained with this method with those of an immunoenzymatic method, thirty-two samples were analyzed for total homocysteine by HiSens$^{(R)}$ homocysteine reagent on the automated chemistry analyzers TBA 200FR and compared to the widely used immunoenzymatic method ADVIA Centaur. In TBA 200FR, the within-run CVs of two control materials were 3.23% and 0.92%, respectively; the between run CVs were 4.58% and 2.55%, respectively. And in ADVIA 1650, the within-run CVs were 6.81% and 0.99%, respectively; the between run CVs were 9.0% and 3.9%, respectively. The recovery for homocysteine was 100% ($60.8{\mu}mol/L$), 99.1% ($48.64{\mu}mol/L$), 96.3% ($36.48{\mu}mol/L$), 96.1% ($24.32{\mu}mol/L$), and 92.1% ($12.16{\mu}mol/L$). The regression equation of TBA 200FR vs. ADVIA Centaur was y=0.9095x-2.5086 (r=0.9632). And the regression equation for the ADVIA 1650 chemistry vs. Immulite 2000 was y=0.8418x + 0.3207 (r=0.9625). In conclusion, this enzymatic method using automated chemistry analyzer for homocysteine assay shows acceptable analytical performance. I suggest that this assay will be suitable for routine analysis.

This study conducted an experiment with EC 1.0ms/cm ratio and excellent soil conditions for germination in ICT-based ginseng process cultivation. The first growth survey was conducted before transplantation of ginseng 1-year roots grown by seeding ginseng in the process cultivation, conventional cultivation and a second growth comparison survey was conducted after 3 months of growth. In the results, it was confirmed that ginseng grown in the process cultivation grew more than in the field. As a result of comparing the contents of 11 ginsenosides of 1-year and 2-year-old ginsenosides in the process cultivation and conventional cultivation ginseng, it was confirmed that the content of the process cultivation ginseng was higher than that of practice cultivation ginseng. In conclusion, conventional cultivation ginseng grows due to various factors under the natural cultivation environment, but process cultivation can secure the growth stability of ginseng by allowing stable soil and environmental control, so continuous research is needed in the future.
