Sesamin and sesamolin, antioxidant lipidsoluble lignan compounds, are abundant in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) seed oil and provide oxidative stability of oil related to sesame quality. The sesamin and sesamolin contents of 403 sesame land races of Korea were determined by HPLC analysis of methanol extract (HPLC value), and their total lignan content was compared with those by using UV-Vis spectrophotometric analysis (UV method) of methanol (UV-MeOH value) and hexane (UV-Hexane value) extracts. HPLC values of total lignan content were strongly associated with UV-Hexane (r=0.705**) and UV-MeOH (r=0.811**) values. The UV values from both the extracts were 3.8-4.7 times higher than those of HPLC values. Lignan content was overestimated by UV method because total compounds in the mixture solution were quantified by absorbing at the same ultraviolet wavelength as in HPLC method. UV method could more rapidly analyze small amount of sample with higher sensitivity of detection than HPLC method. Average contents of lignans in sesame germplasm evaluated in this study were $2.09{\pm}1.02mg/g$ of sesamin, and $1.65{\pm}0.61mg/g$ of sesamolin, respectively, showing significant variation for lignan components. The results showed that UV method for the determination of sesamin and sesamolin could be practically used as a faster and easier method than HPLC by using the regression equations developed in this study.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the difference of analytical methods for the pharmacokinetic study of bromosulfophthalein (BSP), an indicator of hepatobiliary function. The plasma and bile concentrations of BSP after intravenous administration were measured according to custom UV spectroscopy and HPLC, respectively. Plasma concentration of BSP measured by UV spectroscopy was similar to that measured by HPLC. There was no significant difference in the distribution volume, total body clearance, area under the curve and mean residence time of BSP between different analytical method groups. However, bile concentration of BSP measured by UV spectroscopy was overestimated compared with concentration measured by HPLC method. Biliary clearance of BSP obtained from UV spectroscopy method was almost 3 times higher than that obtained from HPLC method. Thus, a feasibility of UV spectroscopy method for high throughput pharmacokinetic evaluation of BSP was limited to the study based on the plasma concentration of BSP, not bile concentration.

To assess accurate methods for measuring sulfur dioxide residue in pickles, the acid distillation HPLC-UV method and Monnier Willams modified method were examined. By the acid distillation HPLC-UV method, sulfites released from pickles by acid distillation were absorbed in 1% triethanolamine solution and detected as sulfite ion by HPLC with UV monitoring at 240nm. An anion exchange column was employed with 1.8mM $Ma_2CO_3-1.7mM\;NaHCO_3$ solution as a mobile phase, $84.0{\sim}91.7%$ of sulfite added to pickled radish were recovered. Total sulfite levels from 48 kinds of pickles analyzed by acid distillation HPLC-UV was compared with those analyzed by the Monnier Williams modified method. The Monnier Williams modified method showed higher levels of sulfur dioxide than the acid distillation HPLC-UV method due to the presence of volatile acids in pickles. The concentration of sulfur dioxide was in the range of $N.D{\sim}173.05ppm$ in pickled radish and over 30ppm of sulfur dioxide from 3 samples by the acid distillation-HPLC-UV method.

In this study, quantitative and pattern recognition analysis for the quality evaluation of Cinnamomi Ramulus and Cinnamomi Cortex using HPLC/UV was developed. For quantitative analysis, three major bioactive compounds were determined. The separation conditions employed for HPLC/UV were optimized using an ODS $C_{18}$ column ($250{\times}4.6$ mm, 5 ${\mu}m$) with gradient conditions of acetonitrile and water as the mobile phase, at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and a detection wavelength of 265 nm. This method was fully validated with respect to linearity, accuracy, precision, recovery, and robustness. The HPLC/UV method was applied successfully to the quantification of three major compounds in the extract of Cinnamomi Ramulus and Cinnamomi Cortex. The HPLC analytical method for pattern recognition analysis was validated by repeated analysis of thirty eight Cinnamomi Ramulus and thirty five Cinnamomi Cortex samples. The results indicate that the established HPLC/UV method is suitable for quantitative analysis.

Extraction of quaternary ammonium compounds (choline and betaine) from plant samples (spinach) using ion exchange resin (AG1, OH⁻ form) is a very simple and inexpensive approach. However, it is very hard to determine amounts of choline and betaine simultaneously using high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) detection. Unlike choline, betaine has low molar absorptivity in UV-visible (UV-Vis) region, which makes it difficult to carry out UV-Vis detection of betaine. The mixture of quaternary ammonium compounds (choline and betaine) was derivatized using 2-bromo acetophenone as a derivatizing agent. As a result, choline did not react with the derivatizing agent, whereas betaine formed a betaine derivative. This betaine derivative exhibited detectable UV absorption with baseline separation between choline and the betaine derivative. Thus, with this method, choline and betaine can be determined simultaneously by using the HPLCUV method through one-step derivatization, which is an easy, sensitive, and reliable method.

In this study, polymer additives were extracted and separated by Soxhlet extraction method and the dissolution-precipitation method from a polycarbonate (optical grade) which completely absorbed UV light below 390 nm. Analytical techniques such as UV-Vis spectroscopy, FT-IR, and HPLC were applied to analyze additives in polycarbonate. Separated materials from the polycarbonate may be a complex mixture containing additives such as UV stabilizer, antioxidants (primary and secondary), monomers, and oligomers. Several compounds such as bisphenol A, Irganox 1010, and Cyasorb UV-5411 were identified by chromatograms and UV spectra obtained from RP HPLC analysis using Bondapak $C_{18}$ column, methanol mobile phase, and a photodiode array (PDA) detector. Also, the content of UV-5411 in the polycarbonate was about 0.12 wt% by a quantitative analysis through UV spectroscopy.

Ephedra alkaloids, (-)-ephedrine, (+)-pseudoephedrine, (-)-N-methylephedrine, (+)-N-methylpseudoephedrine, (-)-norephedrine and (+)-norpseudoephedrine, from ephedra herb are sympathomimetic agonists causing an increase of metabolism, blood pressure and perspiration. In this study, we developed the validation method of (+)-pseudoephedrine and (-)-ephedrine, two major ephedra alkaloids in Ephedra spp., by high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet spectrometer (HPLC-UV). HPLC analysis was performed using a HECTOR-M C18 column operating at $35^{\circ}C$, and UV detection at 215nm. The mobile phase used a gradient flow with 25 mM SDS in water (A) and acetonitrile (B).

A simple HPLC-UV method was developed and validated for the quantification of human serum isepamicin using phenylisocyanate as a derivatization agent. The linear calibration curve was obtained in the concentration range of $1{\sim}100{\mu}g/ml$ and LLOQ of $1{\mu}g/ml$. This method was validated with selectivity, linearity, precision and accuracy, leading to successful application for estimating the pharmacokinetic parameters of isepamicin in Korean healthy subjects following IV infusion of 800 mg isepamicin. The mean $t_{1/2}$ of isepamicin was $1.55{\pm}0.08hr$.
