Nail polish is used to decorate nail beautifully however, it contains lots of toxic materials. Generally, Nail polish consists of film-forming agent, colorant, solvent, surfactant and stabilizer. In this study, to replace toxic chemicals to low irritative, eco-friendly ingredients, we prepared 4 kinds of nail polish and tested safety, stability and performance. Nail polish including shellac/gelatin showed best performance in water-resistance, friability and drying time. When cell toxicity test is done by MTT assay, shellac-gelatin nail polish showed over 70% cell viability at $1,000{\mu}g/mL$ whereas control nail polish in market showed 50% cell viability. At 4 weeks temperature stability test, color was stable at low temperature however it needs formulation improvement at higher temperature.

The importance of enteric coating technique among the pharmaceutical firms has recently risen very significantly. This study of enteric coating bases was made in order to determine the most suitable bases and dusting powders. Materials and equipment used in this experiment are shown in table 1 and kinds of enteric coating bases and their formulas are shown in table 2. The evaluation of the suitability for enteric coating bases and dusting powder was made by disintergration test after measuring the thickness of the enteric coated layer as shown in the tables 4 and 5. Based on the results of this study, the base D(shellac 20 Gm, anhydrous lanoline 5 Gm, 96% alcohol 75 ml) and the base E (shellac 10 Gm, cetyl alcohol 10 Gm. acetone 80 ml) are selected among the 8 kinds of bases studied in a preliminary test and it was found that Mg-stearate and CA-stearate were in most suitable dusting powders among the 6 kinds studied for the bases D and E. Further study on base D and E was carried out by varying the proportions of the materials which were the original constituents of bases D and E. According to the result of this further study shown in table 6, the shellac 15 Gm cetyl alcohol 5 Gm Acetone 80 ml of base E is recommended as the most suitable dusting powder.

Recently, the number of cardiovascular disease-related deaths worldwide has increased. Therefore, the importance of percutaneous cardiovascular intervention and drug-eluting stents (DES) has been highlighted. Despite the great clinical success of DES, the re-endothelialization at the site of stent implantation is retarded owing to the anti-proliferative effect from the coated drug, resulting in late thrombosis or very late restenosis. In order to solve this problem, studies have been actively carried out to excavate new drugs that promote rapid re-endothelialization. In this study, we introduced hydrophilic drug, tauroursodeoxycholate (TUDCA), that improves the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells and promotes apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells. In addition, we utilized shellac, which is a natural resin from lac bug to coat TUDCA on the surface of the metal. When using conventional coating method including biodegradable polymers and organic solvents, phase separation between polymer and drug occurred in the coating layer that caused incomplete incorporation of drug into the polymer layer. However, when using shellac as a coating polymer, no phase separation was observed and drug was fully covered with the polymer matrix. In addition, by adjusting the composition of coating solution and modifying the hydrophilicity of the metal surface using oxygen plasma, the surface roughness decreased due to the increased affinity between coating solution and metal surface. This result provides a method of depositing a hydrophilic drug layer on the stent.

Since the active center of digestive enzymetic preparations, while under storage, lose their activity and potency by the exposure to moisture, colorization, solidifying and other physical changes. It is more important than beautiful package form that protected packaging form from moisture to get a pharmaceutical safety preparations and to maintain a definite potency. Then, in order to get a desirable conditions of storage and packaging, we used shellac and $AEA^{\circledR}$ as a coating base, and blister package, foil and bottle container as a packaging material. Temperature were set on room temperature and $37^{\circ}C$, moisture was adjusted to 40% RH and 80 % RH as a accelerated conditions. Accelerated test was carried out 6 times. The results are as follows: 1) The effect of packaging conditions give great influence on the maintenace of the stable potency. 2) Best result was produced with bottle container package. 3) $AEA^{\circledR}$ is more useful than shellac as a coating base of prevention from moisture. 4) Absorption of moisture gave considerable effects on potency and it has a limited point. 5) Difference in potency between optimal and worst condition is 472 u/2T, and difference in effective period is about 44 months.

Multilayer edible coatings was applied to lemon with beeswax-hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (BW-HPMC), soybean oil-carboxymethyl cellulose (SBO-CMC), and carnaubawax-shellac-locust bean gum (CW-SL-LBG), respectively. The multilayer was composed of two layers of the same material, but the outer layer only contained vitamins C and E as antioxidants. Coating amounts built on lemon peel were measured to be large in the order of CW-SLLBG> BW-HPMC> SBO-CMC. The coated lemons were stored at 30${^{\circ}C}$ for 12 days. CW-SL-LBG showed the least change during the storage in weight loss, rotten rate, firmness, and browning. Whereas SBO-CMC had the least change in pH, soluble solid amount, and titratable acidity. In a sensory test, CW-SL-LBG was evaluated to be the best in the attributes such as spoilage, glossiness, color, firmness, and flavor. Overall CW-SL-LBG was judged to be the best for multilayerd coating with vitamin C and E on lemon.

Lac is the dermal secretion of lac insect, Kerria lacca Kerr., which is used to make expensive natural dye, burnish, coating materials, in cosmetics and jewelry industry. Though it is very perspective industry and available of host plants over the country especially in southern districts of Bangladesh, lac cultivation is confined within some northern districts of Bangladesh. Experiment was conducted to find out the possibility of lac cultivation in two southwestern districts of Bangladesh: Khulna and Satkhira compared to Chapainowabgonj, the key lac producing district in Bangladesh, during February-October, 2006. The bark thickness, bark weight of ber plant, ratio of harvested and inoculated lac sticks, harvested raw lac, and harvested processed lac were measured and compared. Statistically, similar performance of lac cultivation was found regarding all parameters in three districts. These results recommended that lac cultivation is possible at the south-western coastal part of Bangladesh.

As an edible coating, carnauba shellac wax (CSW) and lemongrass oil (LO) solution was prepared to extend the shelf life of 'Hongro' apples. During storage, there were significant differences in the populations of total aerobic bacteria, yeast, and molds between the coated apples and the control samples. The weight loss and vitamin C loss of apples coated with the CSW-LO solution were lower than those of the control. These results suggest that CSW-LO coating can be an effective method for improving quality of 'Hongro' apples.
