An analytical method was developed and optimized for the quantification of a plant growth regulator, 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene (2,6-DIPN), in agricultural products using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The samples were extracted, partitioned, and were purified using a Florisil® cartridge. To validate the analytical method, its specificity, linearity, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of the instrument, LOQ of the analytical method (MLOQ), accuracy, and repeatability were considered. The method displayed excellent results during validation, and is suitable for the determination and quantification of the low residual levels of the analyte in the agricultural samples. All of the results with the optimized method were satisfactory and within the criteria ranges requested in the Codex Alimentarius Commission guidelines and the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety guidelines for pesticide residue analysis. The developed method is simple and accurate and can be used as a basis for safety management of 2,6-DIPN.

Although lisdexamfetamine is used as a recreational drug, little research exists regarding its potential for dependence or its precise mechanisms of action. This study aims to evaluate the psychoactivity and dependence profile of lisdexamfetamine using conditioned place preference and self-administration paradigms in rodents. Additionally, biochemical techniques are used to assess alterations in the dopamine levels in striatal synaptosomes following administration of lisdexamfetamine. Lisdexamfetamine increased both conditioned place preference and self-administration. Moreover, after administration of the lisdexamfetamine, dopamine levels in the striatal synaptosomes were significantly increased. Although some modifications should be made to the analytical methods, performing high performance liquid chromatography studies on synaptosomes can aid in predicting dependence liability when studying new psychoactive substances in the future. Collectively, lisdexamfetamine has potential for dependence possible via dopaminergic pathway.

전분의 사용원료를 확인하는 방법은 전분입자의 크기 또는 형태 등으로 분류하는 이화학적인 방법이 연구되었으나 원료별 또는 동일한 원료라도 품종에 따른 차이점으로 인하여 명확하게 확인하기 어려운 단점이 있어 유전자분석법을 시도하였다. 시료는 고구마 전분, 감자 전분, 옥수수 전분 및 타피오카 전분 등 총 11종을 사용하였으며, 유전자추출은 DNeasy plant mini 키트, magnetic DNA purification system 및 CTAB 방법으로 하였으며 추출유전자의 증폭을 위하여 WGA 키트로 처리하였다. 그리고 고구마, 감자, 옥수수 및 타피오카 검출을 위한 유전자 부위는 SSR (simple sequence repeat, ib-286-F/ib-286-R), 자당합성효소(potato sucrose synthase, Pss 01n-5'/Pss 01n-3'), 전분합성효소(starch synthase, SSllb 3-5'/SSllb 3-3') 및 SSR (SSRY26-F/SSRY26-R)를 각각 사용하였다. 그 결과 대부분의 경우 WGA를 처리한 경우에는 사용원료의 확인이 가능하였다.

With the diversification and internationalization of the food industry and the increased focus on health from a majority of consumers, food safety policies are being implemented based on scientific evidence. Risk analysis represents the most useful scientific approach for making food safety decisions. Total diet study (TDS) is often used as a risk assessment tool to evaluate exposure to hazardous elements. Many countries perform TDSs to screen for chemicals in foods and analyze exposure trends to hazardous elements. TDSs differ from traditional food monitoring in two major aspects: chemicals are analyzed in food in the form in which it will be consumed and it is cost-effective in analyzing composite samples after processing multiple ingredients together. In Korea, TDSs have been conducted to estimate dietary intakes of heavy metals, pesticides, mycotoxins, persistent organic pollutants, and processing contaminants. TDSs need to be carried out periodically to ensure food safety.

Nitrate is a naturally occurring compound in plant and can be converted to nitrite in the nitrogen cycle and vice versa. Therefore, it is easy to find nitrate in plants including vegetables. Especially, it is known that high levels of nitrate found in leafy vegetables. Nitrate itself is relatively non-toxic but its metabolites and reaction products such as nitrite, nitric oxide and N-nitroso compounds, may produce adverse health effects such as methaemoglobinaemia and carcinogenesis. To execute the risk assessment of dietary nitrate and nitrite for the intake of vegetables, it is investigated that the levels of nitrate and nitrite in 23 vegetables (798 samples). The range of concentration were 0-6,719mg/kg for nitrate and 0-1,635mg/kg for nitrite, respectively. The Estimated daily intakes (EDI) were 0.85-1.38 mg/kg body weight/day for nitrate and 0.02-0.03 mg/kg body weight/day for nitrite by ages. We conclude that there are no health concerns for eating various vegetables since the EDI were below the Tolerable Daily Intake (3.7 mg/kg body weight/day for nitrate, 0.06 mg/kg body weight/day for nitrite) level established by WHO.

Tramadol is an opioid analgesic agent that has been the subject of a series of case reports suggesting potential for misuse or abuse. However, it is not a controlled substance and is not generally considered addictive in Korea. In this study, we examined the dependence potential and abuse liability of tramadol as well as its effect on the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems in rodents. In animal behavioral tests, tramadol did not show any positive effects on the experimental animals in climbing, jumping, and head twitch tests. However, in the conditioned place preference and self-administration tests, the experimental animals showed significant positive responses. Taken together, tramadol affected the neurological systems related to abuse liability and has the potential to lead psychological dependence.

Thidiazuron은 1976년 Plant Physiology 발표를 통해 생장조정제로 알려진 이후, 현재 우리나라에서도 생장조정제로 수박과 참외의 착과 증진 및 참다래의 과실비대 촉진, 포도의 과립 비대 증진 및 착립 증진 등을 위해 등록되어 사용되고 있다. Thidiazuron의 분석법은 식품공전에 수재되어 있으나, 등재 당시의 기술 이용, 일부 시험 대상 품목에 대한적용 등으로, 최근의 잔류허용기준 설정 품목의 증가와 분석기기 및 기술 발달을 반영하여 검증된 분석법으로 개선코자 하였다. 더불어, 개발된 분석법을 활용하여, thidiazuron의 사용이 허가되어 있는 수박, 키위, 포도를 포함한 국민 다소 비 식품 17품목에 대한 잔류실태조사도 수행하였다. 개발된 분석법의 회수율은, 현미 89.2~91.2 %, 고추 87.2~92.1 %, 감자 76.4~86.9 %, 수박 91.2~95.7 %, 키위 86.5~88.5 %, 포도 89.5~94.0 % 였으며, 반복 회수율 간 변이계수는 10 % 이하였다. 또한 개발된 분석법으로 우리나라에서 유통되고 있는 다소비 농산물 쌀, 상추, 사과 등 17품목 358건에 대해 농약 잔류실태를 조사한 결과 모든 시료에서 thidazulon은 검출되지 않았다.
