Bioequivalence of cisapride-containing $Cisaplus^{(R)}$ tablets (Daewoong Co.) to reference $Prepulsid^{(R)}$ tablets (Janssen Co.) was evaluated according to the guidelines of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Sixteen healthy volunteers were divided randomly into two groups and administered orally at a cisapride dose of 10 mg in a $2\times2$ crossover design. There was a 1-week washout period between the treatments. Blood samples were taken at predetermined time intervals for 48 hr and the plasma cisapride concentrations were determined by an HPLC with UV detector. The area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve (AUC) was caltulated from time zero to the last sampling time by a linear trapezoidal method. The maximum observed plasma drug concentration ($C_{max}$) and the time to $C_{max}\;(T_{max})$ were estimated directly from the drug concentration-time data. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that the apparent differences for AUC, $C_{max}\;and\;T_{max}$ were $-7.52\%,\;-8.91\%\;and\;-15.55\%$, respectively. The minimum detectable differences for AUC, $C_{max}\;and\;T_{max}$ between formulations were $14.52\%,\;11.57\%\;and\;28.00\%$ respectively, at $\alpha=0.05\;and\;1-\beta=0.8\;levels.\;The\;90\%$ confidence intervals for AUC, $C_{max}\;and\;T_{max}\;were\;-16.00\sim0.97\%,\;-15.67\sim-2.15\%\;and\;-31.88\%\sim0.84\%$, respectively. These results satisfy the bioequivalence criteria of KFDA guidelines, indicating that the two formulations of cisapride are bioequivalent.

To synthesize the Ti₃AlC₂ MAX phase, a crucial precursor for generating the two-dimensional material MXene, the use of Ti scrap as an initial material is an economically feasible approach. This study aims to optimize the synthesis conditions for the phase fraction of the Ti₃AlC₂ MAX phase utilizing Ti scrap as the Ti source. The deoxidation of Ti powders, prepared through the hydrogenation-dehydrogenation process from Ti scrap, was effectively accomplished using the deoxidation in solid-state (DOSS) process. The optimal synthesis conditions were established by blending DOSS-Ti, Al, and graphite powders with particle sizes ranging from 25 ~ 32 ㎛ in a molar ratio of 3:1.1:2. The resulting phase fractions were as follows: Ti₃AlC₂ at 97.25 wt.%, TiC at 0.93 wt.%, and Al₃Ti at 1.82 wt.%. Furthermore, the oxygen content of the Ti₃AlC₂ MAX powder, spanning from 25 ~ 45 ㎛, was measured at 4,210 ppm.

The pharmacokinetics of erythromycin (EM) after oral administration was studied in the cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, using LC/MS/MS. After single- or multiple-dose administration of EM (50, 100, 200 mg/kg body weight and 50 mg/kg for 5 days) by oral route in olive flounder ($350{\pm}40g$, $22{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$), the concentration in the serum was determined at 1, 3, 6, 9, 24, 72, 120, 168, 264, 360, 504 and 720 h post-dose. The kinetic profile of absorption, distribution and elimination of EM in serum were analyzed fitting to a two-compartment model by WinNonlin program. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), maximum concentration ($C_{max}$), time for maximum concentration ($T_{max}$) following oral administration of 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg b.w. and 50 mg for 5 days. EM was $165.3hr^*{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ ($C_{max}$, $34.63{\mu}g/m{\ell}$; $T_{max}$, 1.56 hr), $212.8hr^*{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ ($C_{max}$, $60.38{\mu}g/m{\ell}$; $T_{max}$, 3.99 hr), and $592.37hr^*{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ ($C_{max}$, $63.01{\mu}g/m{\ell}$; $T_{max}$, 4 hr), respectively. The results of this study related to dosage and ${\mu}{\cdot}$withdrawal times could be used for prescription of EM in field for the treatment of bacterial diseases in olive flounder.

To find the optimal rearing conditions for Saxidomus purpuratus juvenile, filtering activity was estimated as functions of algal concentration and temperature by measuring the rates of clearance (CR) and ingestion (IR), when S. purpuratus was feeding. The clams were fed on unialgal diet of Isochrysis galbana at 6 algal concentrations (4.6$\times$$10^4$~2.6$\times$$10^6$ cells/ml) and at 6 temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30^{\circ}C ). Algal concentration significantly affected the CR and the IR at all temperatures. At lower algal concentrations, CR increased, but decreased beyond a particular concentration. The maximum CR ($CR_{max}$) at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30^{\circ}C were 0.30, 1.73, 5.95, 15.17, 21.12, and 0.33 $l/g/h$, respectively. Below the level of 5.6$\times$10$^{5}$ cells/ml, IR increased as algal concentration increased, but was saturated at higher concentrations. To maintain high growth rate of S. purpuratus, I. galbana should be supplied with more than 5.6$\times$10$^{5}$ cells/ml. The maximum IR ($IR_{max}$) at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and30^{\circ}C were $2.2$\times$10^8, $1.5\times$10^9, 3.4$\times$10^9, 4.9$\times$10^9, 5.3$\times$10^9, and 1.0$\times$10^8$ cells/g/h, respectively. As for temperature, both $CR_max$ and $IR_max$ increased remarkably with raising temperature from 5 to 25^{\circ}C, but rapidly decreased at 30^{\circ}C. Between 15 and 25^{\circ}C $CR_{max} and IR_{max}$ were higher and most stable, At this temperature range, the $Q_{10}/s for CR_{max} and IR_{max}$ were 3.5 and 1.6, respectively. Therefore the optimal thermal range for the juvenile is 15~$25^{\circ}C$. The annual variation in IR$_{max}$ predicted by natural seawater temperature shows that inactive period (with lower $IR_max$) lasts for 5 months (from December to April). To ensure higher growth of juvenile during this inactive period at hatcheries, rearing temperature should be elevated to $15^{\circ}C$.>.

A bioequivalence study of Lovastati $n^{TM}$ tablets (Dong Sung Pharmaceutical Co., Korea) to Mevaco $r^{TM}$ tablets (Choong Wae Pharmaceutical Co., Korea) was conducted according to the guidelines (No. 98-56) of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Each tablet contained 20 mg of lovastatin. Eighteen healthy Korean male subjects received each formulation at a lovastatin dose of 80 mg (i.e., four tablets) in a 2 $\times$ 2 crossover study. There was a washout period of a week between the dose of the two formulations. Plasma concentrations of lovastatin acid were monitored by a GC/MS method for over a period of 12hr after each administration. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 12hr (AUC) was calculated by a linear trapezoidal method. The maximum plasma drug concentration ( $C_{max}$) and the time to reach $C_{max}$ ( $T_{max}$) were compiled from the plasma drug concentration-time data. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) of these parameters revealed that there are no differences in AUC and $C_{max}$ between the formulations. The apparent differences between the formulations in these parameters were 4.87 and 8.03% for AUC and $C_{max}$, respectively. Minimum detectable differences (%) at $\alpha$=0.1 and 1-$\beta$=0.8 were 17.84 and 15.36% for AUC and $C_{max}$ respectively. The 90% confidence intervals were -15.30~5.56 and -17.02-0.95% for AUC and $C_{max}$, respective1y. Thus, the criteria of the KFDA guidelines for the bioequivalence was satisfied, indicating Mevaco $r^{TM}$ tablets and Dong Sung Lovastati $n^{TM}$ tablets are bioequivalent.ivalent.ent.alent.ent.

In 1963, Toomre built up classes of mass models for the highly flattened galaxies which have free parameters n, $a_n$ and $C_n$. In order to keep the universal dimension, we adopt parameters $b_n({C_n}^2={a_n}^{2n}+^2{b_n}^2/(n-1)!)$ insteal of $C_n$. Series of the normalized Toomre's mass models (G = $V_{max}$ =$R_{max}$ = 1, n = 1 to 7) are derived and the normalized parameters $a_n$ and $b_n$ are determined by the iteration method. Replacing parameters $a_n$ and $b_n$ to ${a_n}^l(=a_nr_{max})$ and ${b_n}^l(=b_n\cdotV_{max}/r_{max})$, we can get the generalization of Toomre's mass model.

A bioequivalence study of the Loxipen tablets (Dae Wha Pharmaceutical Co., Korea) to the Loxonin tablets (Dong Hwa Pharmaceutical Co., Korea), formulations of sodium loxoprofen anhydrous 60 mg, was conducted. Sixteen healthy Korean male subjects received each formulation at the dose of 60 mg as sodium loxoprofen anhydrous in a $2{\times}2$ crossover study. There was a 2-week washout period between the dose. Plasma concentrations of loxoprofen were monitored by an HPLC method for over a period of 6 h after each administration. AUC (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity) was calculated by the linear trapezoidal and extrapolation method. $C_{max}$ (maximum plasma drug concentration) and $T_{max}$ $(time\;to\;reach\;C_{max})$ were compiled from the plasma drug concentration-time data. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that there are no differences in AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ between the formulations. The apparent differences between the formulations in these parameters were all far less than 20% (i.e., 5.88, 7.81 and 6.09% for AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$, respectively). Minimum detectable differences (%) at ${\alpha}=0.1$ and $1-{\beta}=0.8$ were all less than 20% difference in these parameters between the formulations were all over 0.8 (i.e., 15.81, 13.13 and 19.85 for AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$, respectively). The 90% confidence intervals for these parameters were also within ${\pm}20%$ (i.e., $-16.52{\sim}4.77$, $-16.65{\sim}1,02$ and $-19.45{\sim}7.28%$ for AUC, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$, respectively). These results satisfy the bioequivalence criteria of the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) guidelines (No. 98-51). Therefore, these results indicate that the 2 formulations of loxoprofen are bioequivalent and, thus, may be prescribed interchangeably.

Bioequivalence of two terazosin tablets, the $Hytrine^{TM}$ (Il-Yang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) and the $Hytrine^{TM}$ (Daewon Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), was evaluated according to the guideline of KFDA. Sixteen normal male volunteers $(21{\sim}30\;years\;old)$ were divided into two groups and a randomized $2{\times}2$ cross-over study was employed. After one tablet containing 2 mg of terazosin was orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and the concentration of terazosin in serum was determined with a HPLC method using spectrofluorometric detector. The pharmacokinetic parameters $(AUC_t,\;C_{max}\;and\;T_{max})$ were calculated and ANOVA was utilized for the statistical analysis of the parameters. The results showed that the differences in $AUC_t$ $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ between two tablets were 6.02%,3.44% and -3.67%, respectively. The powers $(1-{\beta})$ for $AUC_t$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were 98.05%, 98.34% and 29.81 %, respectively. Detectable differences $({\Delta})$ and confidence intervals were all less than ${\pm}20%$ except $T_{max}$. $AUC_t$ and $C_{max}$ met the criteria of KFDA for bioequivalence, indicating that $Terasin^{TM}$ tablet is bioequivalent to $Hytrine^{TM}$ tablet.
