  • 현재까지의 농약 검출용 바이오센서는 화학 센서, immunoassay, 화학 테스트 킷과 같은 다른 잘 알려진 분석 방법들과 경쟁적으로 연구되어 지고 있다. 바이오센서가 농약을 증명하는 간단하고 저렴한 방법으로 chromatography 방법들을 대체할 잠재력을 가지고 있음에도 불구하고 정확한 정량적 분석 방법이 아직도 미비하다. 안정하고 강력한 바이오센서의 발전을 위해서 유전자 조작을 이용한 효소 개량을 통해 좀 더 민감하고 반응속도가 빠른 생촉매와 특이성이 높은 항체의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 바이오센서의 안정성 개선과 transducer 표면으로부터의 빠른 신호 전달을 위해 새로운 고정화 방법이 탐구되어져야 한다. 비록 약간의 방법들이 시료의 전처리를 필요로 하지 않을 지라도 센서의 안정성은 또 다른 개념으로 접근해야 한다. 그래서 현장 적용을 위해, 보다 간편한 시료의 전처리과정 혹은 직접적인 분석 방식이 동일시되어 개선되어야 한다. 향상된 fabrication 기술을 이용한 소형화 센서 혹은 일회용 킷의 개발은 개인용 및 산업용, 의약용 등의 여러 분야에서 실시간으로 분석이 가능하게 할 것이다. 실제 샘플의 빠르고 자동화 및 소형화된 분석 시스템의 구축을 위해 장차 매우 선택적인 다중 검출 바이오센서의 설계에 더 많은 중점을 둘 필요가 있다. 앞으로 잔류농약 검출을 위한 휴대형 바이오센서의 개발과 상용화를 위해서, 무엇보다 현재의 GC, LC (혹은 GC/MS, LC/MS) 분석을 위해 이루어지고 있는 샘플 전처리 방법의 경우, 다량의 샘플로부터 유기용매 등을 이용한 추출방법으로 진행되고 있기 때문에 샘플 전처리를 간소화하고 간단한 측정방법으로 전체의 측정결과를 대변할 수 있는 방안을 구축하고 잔류농약의 법적 허용기준과 적용이 가능한 방법을 찾아내는 노력이 절실히 요구되는 상황이다.

  • Even though driving under the influence of drug (DUID) is a worldwide problem, we, Korea has no regulation system yet except for alcohol, and there are little cases reported related to DUID. In order to investigate the type of abused drugs for drivers in Korea, we tried to analyze controlled and non-controlled drugs in alcohol-positive blood samples. 275 whole bloods, which were positive for alcohol on the roadside test, were collected from the police for two months ($Nov.{\sim}Dec.$ 2006). The analytical strategy was constituted of three steps: First, alcohol in blood samples were confirmed and quantified by gas chromatography. Second, controlled drugs were screened by $Evidence_{investigator}\;^{TM}$ (Randox, U.K.) as preliminary test. It was based on immunoassay by biochip array analyzer. Nine groups of drug abuse were screened: amphetamines, methamphetamines, cannabis, cocaine, opiates, barbiturates, methadone, benzodiazepines I (oxazepam) & II (lorazepam). Finally, confirmation of these drugs was performed by GC-MS. Blood samples were extracted by solid-phase extraction by $RapidTrace^{TM}$ (Zymark, U.S.A.). After trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatization, eluates were analyzed to GC-MS. Total 49 drugs were investigated in this study including controlled drugs, antidepressants, 1st generation antihistamines, dextromethorphan, nalbuphine, ketamine, etc. For rapid detection, we developed the automated identification system. It was made up a new software, "DrugMan", modified Chemstation data analysis menu and newly developed macro modules. A series of peak selection, identification and reporting of the results were performed automatically by this system. Concentrations of alcohol in 275 blood samples were ranged from 0.011 to 0.249% (average, 0.119%). Among 149 blood samples, just six samples (4.0%) were showed positive results to the immunoassay: one methamphetamine and five benzodiazepines group I. By GC-MS confirmation, only benzodiazepines were detected and methamphetamine was not detected from immunoassay positive blood sample. Besides these drugs, 5 chlorpheniramines, dextromethorphan, diazepam, doxylamine, ibuprofen, lidocaine and topiramate were also detected in whole bloods by GC-MS. Conclusively, the frequency of drug abuse for Korean drivers was relatively low. There was none case which illegal drug was detected. However these results were limited to alcohol positive blood samples, so it is necessary to analyze more samples including alcohol negative blood.

  • Samsoeum (SSE) is used in traditional oriental medicine for various medicinal purposes. However, the exact mechanism that accounts for the anti-allergy and anti-inflammatory effects of the SSE is still not fully understood. The aim of the present study is to elucidate whether and how SSE modulates the allergic reactions in vivo, and inflammatory reaction in vitro. In this study, we showed that SSE significantly decreased compound 48/80-induced systemic anaphylaxis, ear-swelling response, histamine release from preparation of rat peritoneal mast cells and anti-dinitropheny IgE-induced passive cutaneous reaction. Also, SSE inhibited the expression of inflammatory cytokine and cyclooxygenase-2 in PMA plus A23187-stimulated human mast cells (HMC-1). In addition, we showed that anti-inflammatory mechanism of SSE is through suppression of nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ activation and $I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$ phosphorylation/degradation in HMC-1. These results provided new insight into the pharmacological actions of SSE as a potential molecule for therapy of inflammatory allergic diseases.
