In this study, the qualitative and quantitative analytical method for petroleum marker(Unimark 1494DB) in common diesel involved kerosene and byproduct fuel was developed using SPE pretreatment and high performance liquid chromatography. In SPE pretreatment process, the highest concentrated marker was obtained 15 minutes after addition of petroleum sample. The petroleum marker was detected with $1626.92mV{\cdot}sec$ intensity at 9.8 minutes retention time in 1 mg/L content in petrodiesel after pretreatment. Also petroleum marker was selectively identified in an acidic petroleum product which was previously difficult to be analyzed by UV-Vis Spectroscopy.

With a modern size exclusion chromatography (SEC) column, molecular weight analysis of a polymer sample takes about 10 min. However, it is desirable to reduce the analysis time further, in particular, for high throughput measurements required in combinatorial analyses or 2D-HPLC analyses. We implemented the high temperature SEC for the purpose. By inserting a narrow bore tubing between the column and the detector, a sufficient backpressure can be maintained to prevent the mobile phase from boiling and the effluent is cooled down enough when it reaches the detector. Therefore, a normal SEC detector can be used without any modification. The SEC resolution is greatly improved at the elevated temperature at high flow rate which allows high speed operation.

For screening test of the non-volatile compounds which migrate from food packaging materials into foodstuffs, the traditional high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems suffer from the lack of universal detector with high sensitivity and universality and high efficiency HPLC separation column which provides complete separation of complex mixtures into all individual substances. In this work, the use possibility of online two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) system coupled with a charged aerosol detector (CAD), a universal detector, was reviewed. 2D-LC system permits to improve peak capacity and resolving power for complex mixtures. Charged aerosol detector (CAD) offers a new feasibility for detection of any non-volatile compounds with high sensitivity and constant response factor in a calibration range. The combination of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and normal phase HPLC (NP-HPLC) is most frequently used for the separation of the natural and synthetic polymers which are mainly used as raw materials for the manufacture of food packaging materials. However, there is no commercial software available for data acquisition and handling and therefore the quantification in 2D-LC analysis is still rare.

‘LK (lipoprotein kringle) 68’is a polypeptide of a modified ansiostatin consisting of three kringle structures that might be clinically useful as a potential cancer therapeutics. It can be produced by overexpressing it as inclusion body in recombinant E. coli. In this study, solid-phase refolding processes using packed bed adsorption (PBA) and expanded bed adsorption (EBA) column were carried out to compare their refolding yields with that of the conventional, solution-phase refolding process, For the solution-phase and the PBA-mediated processes employing Q-Sepharose, washed inclusion body was used as the starting material, whereas both washed inclusion body and E. coli homogenate were used for the EBA-mediated process employing streamline DEAE. On the final recovery LK68 per unit mass of wet cell basis, the EBA- and PBA-mediated processes showed about 2.7- and 1.5-fold higher yields, respectively, than the solution-phase refolding method. The solid-phase refolded LK68 demonstrated the same Iysine binding bioactivity and the retention time in the RP-and SEC-HPLC as those of the native protein.

The ${\alpha}-lactalbumin({\alpha}-la)$ concentration in raw and laboratory-heated milks by HPLC was 1.20 mg/ml (unheated), 1.17 mg/ml ($63^{\circ}C$, 30min), 1.13 mg/ml ($72^{\circ}C$, 15sec) and 0 mg/ml ($100^{\circ}C$, 10min), respectively. Whereas, ${\alpha}-lactalbumin$ concentration ranges of commercial milks were $1.00{\sim}1.02\;mg/ml$ (pasteurized), $0.23{\sim}0.68\;mg/ml$ (UHT-pasteurized) and $0.77{\sim}0.89\;mg/ml$ (UHT-sterilized), respectively. It was supposed that the ${\alpha}-lactalbumin$ content of sterilized milk will be lower than that of UHT milk, but the opposite occurred. This discrepancy would be caused by the different heating system in the milk plants, where indirect UHT-treatment had more heat intensity than direct UHT-processing. The HPLC determination of ${\alpha}-lactalbumin$ may be an indicator to evaluate correctly and rapidly heated milks.

High temperature size exclusion chromatography (SEC) has been used widely for the characterization of crystalline polymers, for which high temperature operation above the polymer melting temperature is required to dissolve the polymers. However, this high temperature operation has many advantages in SEC separation in addition to merely increasing polymer solubility. At high temperature the eluent viscosity decreases, which in turn decreases the column backpressure and increases the diffusivity of the analytes. Therefore, many reports on the high temperature operation of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) have focused on shortening the analysis time and enhancing the resolution. However, the application of high temperature SEC analysis to exploit the merits of high temperature operation is scarce. In this article, therefore, we report on a new apparatus design for high temperature SEC.

The study aimed to investigate in vitro lipid deposition of oleic acid, oleic acid methyl ester and cholesterol on a daily disposable (1-day lenses) and 3-days lenses over 3 days and changes of optical characteristics is also investigated. Artificial tear solutions were prepared to simulate actual tear compositions. Two types of contact lenses (1-day lenses (Senofilcon A) and 3-days lenses (silicone tripolymer)) were soaked in the artificial tear solutions within an incubator at 37 ℃ with 150 rpm for 8, 16, 24 hours. Lipid deposition (oleic acid, oleic acid methyl ester and cholesterol) were measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instrument. In addition, measurements of oxygen transmissibility, light transmittance and observation of lens surface were conducted. The amount of lipid deposition on the 1-day lenses were 127.55 ㎍/lens for Day 1, 302.96 ㎍/lens, for Day 2, and 353.30 ㎍/lens for Day 3. The 3-days lenses were 46.22 ㎍/lens for Day 1, 66.07 ㎍/lens for Day 2, and 67.45 ㎍/lens for Day 3. Oxygen transmissibility were 81×10^-9(cm/sec)(ml O₂/ml×mmHg)(Baseline) and 48×10^-9(cm/sec)(ml O₂/ml×mmHg) (Day 3) for the 1-day lenses, it were 13.23×10^-9(cm/sec)(ml O₂/ml×mmHg)(Baseline) and 9.6×10^-9(cm/sec)(ml O₂/ml×mmHg) (Day 3) for the 3-days lenses. Transmittance of each lenses were 97.21% (Baseline) and 94.25% (Day 3) for the 1-day lenses, 97.65% (Baseline) and 95.15% (Day 3) for the 3-days lenses. Observation of surface deposition indicated greatest deposition for the 3-days lenses type on Day 3. Lipid deposition for both lens types increased by day and was greater for the 1-day lenses type. Surface deposition appeared to differ as it was greatest for the 3 days lens type, which may suggest other deposits such as protein may be present.

For the demonstration of a novel riboflavin kinase assay method based on the bacterial bioluminescence, partially purified riboflavin kinase was prepared from bovine liver through ammonium sulfate precipitation and DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography. Using bacterial luciferase from Photobacterium phosphoreum and the dithionite reduction method, and easy, safe, and fast assay method was established. The optimal temperature, pH, Km values form riboflavin and ATP of boving liver riboflavin kinase determined with this luminescence method were 35$^{\circ}C$, pH 7, 15.3${\mu}$M and 8.3.${\mu}$M, respectively. The detection limit of FMN produced by riboflavin kinase was in the range of 200 pM to 4${\mu}$M which is comparable to the HPLC-fluorescence detection method, while the detection time for each assay was less than 15 sec compared to the HPLC method which requeires at least 10 min for completion.

Polyethylene glycols(PEGs)are hydrophilic molecules that have been used to characterize intestinal permeability via the paracellular pathway. Using a mixture of PEGs(400, 600 and 1000), containing oligomers in the molecular weight range 330 to 1122 D, the molecular weight permeability dependence in the jejunum of the rat small intestine was examined, employing an in situ recirculation perfusion technique. Individual oligomers were determined by HPLC with refractive detection. In the range studied, a distinct molecular weight cut-off was not apparent. Corrected for the length of jejunum used in the study, over the molecular weight range 330 to 1122D, the apparent permeability(Papp) of PEG ranged from 4.92$\pm$0.02$\times$10-5cm/sec(mean$\pm$SEM, n=5) to 0.28$\times$10-5cm/sec. Also, it was observed that the apparent permeability was inversely proportional to approximately MW2. The results in this study suggest that molecular weight is an important factor in determining the intestinal permeability.

Polyethylene glycols (PEGs; 400, 600, and 1000) were used to study the molecular weight (MW) permeability dependence in the rat ileal mucosa. Absorption of the PEGs was measured by following their recirculation perfusion over a 3 hr collection period. HPLC methods were used to separate and quantitate the individual oligomers present in the solution of PEGs mixtures (MW range 330 to 1 1 22 D). In the range studied, a distinct molecular weight cutoff was not identified. Corrected for the length of ileum used in the study, over the molecular weight range 330 to 1122 D, the apparent permeability $(P_{app)$ of PEG ranged from $3.2\pm0.06\times10_{-5} cm/sec(mean\pmSEM, n=7)\; to\; 0.1\pm0.02\times10^{-5} cm/sec.$ Also, it was observed that the apparent permeability was inversely proportional to approximately $MW^{2.4}$.
