Evaluation of drug-excipient compatibility is one of the basic steps in the preformulation of pharmaceutical dosage forms. Some reactive excipients have been known so far which may cause stability problems for drug molecules in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The aim of this study was to evaluate drugexcipient compatibility of gliclazide with some common pharmaceutical excipients, known for their ability to incorporate in drug-excipient interactions. Binary mixtures were prepared using lactose, magnesium stearate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycolate, polyethylene glycol 2000 and dicalcium phosphate. Based on the results; gliclazide was incompatible with all tested excipients; but not with dicalcium phosphate. DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) results were in accordance with HPLC (High Pressure liquid chromatography) data and were more predictive than FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Drug and reactive excipients incompatibility was fully discussed and documented. It is advisable to avoid incompatible excipients or carefully monitor the drug stability when incorporating such excipients in final formulation designs.

Condensed phosphates have been used in various meat products to enhance the water holding capacity, to improve texture and to prevent the development of off flavors and off odors. This study was intended to observe the effects of poly - and pyrophosphate on the growth of sanitary indicative bacteria and food poisoning bacteria. The bacteriostatic effect of poly - and pyrophosphates against Gram positive bacteria was much stronger than that of against Gram negative organisms. The effective inhibitory concentration of sodium polyphosphate on the growth of bacteria was varied by species such as $0.3\%$ to Staphylococcus aureus, $0.9\%$ to Salmonella, and more than $1.0\%$ to Escherichia coli in nutrient broth. When Staphylococcus aureus suspension was treated with $0.5\%$ sodium polyphosphate at $35^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, the release of UV-absorbing substances from the organism was confirmed. However no significant effect was observed in Escherichia coli under the similar condition. When alaska pollack fillets were dipped in $ 3.5\%$ sodium polyphospahate at $2^{\circ}C$ for 1 min. prior to freezing, the viable cell count and coliform MPN's of the frozen product were decreased with the range of 30 to $50\%$ in comparison with those of control.

This study was investigated to determine the effect of additives and ionic strength on the functionality of extracted proteins in preblends in order to use less additive in restructured meat products. Preblends contained the combinations of sodium chloride (NaCl; 0, 4.5, 9.0%), sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP; 0, 2.5, 5.0%), and tetrasodium pyrophosphate (PP; 0, 2.44, 4.88%). The pH values increased linearly with increasing STPP and PP concentrations (p<0.01). In the equivalent ionic strengths, PP was more effective than STPP in increasing pH. Phosphate ions were more effective on total extractable protein (used 1 M NaCl buffer) than chloride ion at equivalent ionic strengths. Solubility was decreased by adding NaCl and increasing total extractable proteins. Meat sulfhydryl contents were high with increasing total extractable proteins. When protein extracts were heated at $65^{\circ}C$, 7 min, meat sulfhydryl contents decreased and surface hydrophobicity increased (p<0.01). However, all protein extracts showed no differences in SDS-PAGE pattern. In conclusion, PP is more effective than STPP in order to use less additive but there was no linear relationship between functionnal improvement and ionic strength.

The properties of a investment material can be described by the consistency at the slurry state, the setting time, the compressive strength and the thermal expansion during the casting. In this study the effect of the production parameters which are included the ratio of quartz and cristobalite, the content of binder, the water powder ratio and the content and concentration of additives on the properties of the gypsum-bonded investments has been investigated with help of the consistency test, the vicat needle test, the compressive strength test, the thermal expansion test, x-ray diffraction and DTA thermal differential test. The experimental results showed that the constitution of a investment with W/P ratio of 0.34, 30% of gypsum, 0.8% aluminium sulfate, 2% magnesium sulfate, 0.6% sodium phosphate was adapted for the properties of the KDA Spec. No. 13 type I investment. The important experimental results are summarized as follows. 1. The consistency of the investment decreased with increasing amount of aluminium sulfate and decreasing amount of sodium phosphate. An addition of magnesium sulfate up to 2% an increase of the consistency was shown. But 3% magnesium sulfate in investment showed a decrease of consistency. The consistency did not vary significantly with a variation of the content of gypsum and cristobalite and the W/P ratio. 2. Aluminium sulfata and the magnesium sulfate promoted the hardening and the aluminium phoshpate delayed the hardening. The setting time increased with amount of gypsum. The effect of the matrix on the setting time was insignificant. With the W/P ratio of 0.34 the setting time was 14 min. 3. The compressive strength decreased with the amount of aluminium sulfate up to 0.25% and increased with the amount of aluminium sulfate greater than 3%. The compressive strength decreased as decreasing the amount of magnesium sulfate and gypsum and as increasing the W/P ratio. The effect fo the refractory on the compressive strength was also not significant. With the W/P ratio of 0.34 the compressive strength was $34Kg/mm^2$. 4. The 1st thermal expansion was found at the temperature near $250^{\circ}C$ and the steady state or the contraction stage was found at the temperature between $250^{\circ}C$ and $500^{\circ}C$. After this stage the 2nd thermal expansion took place at the temperature near $500^{\circ}C$. The amount of thermal expansion increased with decreasing the content of magnesium sulfate, aluminium sulfate and gypsum and the W/P ratio. And the amount of thermal expansion increased as the content of sodium phosphate ad cristobalite. With the W/P ratio of 0.34 the amount of total expansion was 1.2%.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the characteristics on the thermal denaturation of free drip released from pork loin during chilled storage using DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) with pH, concentration of NaCl and phosphate. The increasing of pH stabilized the heat resistance of the proteins in drip. A $T_1$ greatly increased of $T_{max}$ by $6.33^{\circ}C$ incline from pH 5.5 to 6.5. And increasing the concentration of NaCl destabilized the heat resistance of drip. $T_1$ showed the greatest reduction of $T_{max}\;(9.41^{\circ}C)$ in the presence of 5% NaCl. The presence of STPP (Sodium Tripolyphosphate) enchanced the thermal stability of pork drip by $5.84^{\circ}C$ in the presence of 0.5% STPP. As temperature increased from 40 to $100^{\circ}C$, lightness $(L^*)$ increased from 41.1 to 69.5, while redness $(a^*)$ decreased from 26.70 to 5.40. Particularly, both values of $L^*-$ and $a^*-$ greatly changed by 78% from 40 to $60^{\circ}C$.

A reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method for decursin and decursinol angelate of Angelicae gigantis Radix, an important crude drug in Korean traditional medicine, was developed and validated. Decursin and decursinol angelate, the structure isomer (pyranocoumarin) each other, are the main organic constituents in Angelicae gigantis Radix. This method was developed using a RP-18 column, UV detector at 280 nm and 50% acetonitrile solution containing 0.01 M sodium dodecyl sulfate and 25 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 5.0) as the mobile phase. Various validation parameters were included and evaluated satisfactorily. Linearity was established in range 2-75 mg/ml of decursin and decursinol angelate (correlation coefficient = 0.9997 and 0.9995, respectively). This analytical method showed good accuracy (98.1% and 99.5%, respectively). Precision (repeatability) revealed a relative standard deviation value of 1.71% (decursin) and 3.19% (decursinol angelate). For intermediate precision measure the considered variables were equipment and days. A robustness test showing the influence of deferent counter-ion concentration in mobile phase was also performed.

Using mouse tissue, we studied electron opacity effect of tannic acid for transmission electron microscopic staining. Tannic acid-glutaraldehyde in 0.1M phosphate buffer was used as a fixative. To compare with this we have tested another method consisting of heavy metal staining after treatment of tannic acid in sodium tetraborate (borax) on glutaraldehyde-fixed sections. We have achieved equally consistent electron opacity in both methods. The elastin, collagen, basal lamina of skin and gap junctions of the epithelial cells gave excellent results, while it was good for glycogen, cilia, and plasma. Also fat cells and lipid droplets gave good preservation when tannic acid was added in the fixative. However, prolonged fixation in tannic acid-added fixative was hazardous for further processing, i.e., sectioning problem and deep electron opacity background.

Herein, a new electrochemical method was described for the determination of ciprofloxacin based on the enhancement effect of an anionic surfactant: sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). In pH 4.0 phosphate buffer and in the presence of 1.0 × 10-4 mol/L SDBS, ciprofloxacin yields a well-defined and sensitive oxidation peak at the carbon paste electrode (CPE). Compared with that in the absence of SDBS, the oxidation peak current of ciprofloxacin remarkably increases in the presence of SDBS. The experimental parameters, such as supporting electrolyte, concentration of SDBS, and accumulation time, were optimized for ciprofloxacin determination. The oxidation peak current is proportional to the concentration of ciprofloxacin over the range from 8.0 × 10-8 to 5.0 × 10-6 mol L-1. The detection limit is 2.0 × 10-8 mol L-1 after 2 min of accumulation. This new voltammetric method was successfully used to detect ciprofloxacin in drugs.
