This study was performed to establish analysis methods, and evaluated for grayanotoxin in domestic/foreign honey and wild honey. The molecular weight of grayanotoxins I, II and III, excluding grayanotoxin III that has been commercialized, were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Then, the molecular structure of grayanotoxins I and II were analyzed by NMR. A total 111 samples (25 Korean honey, 21 Korean wild honey, 13 Korean honeycomb honey, 44 foreign honey, 8 foreign wild honey) were examined to determined whether or not each sample contained grayanotoxins I, II, and III. The honey samples were mixed with methanol and loaded into a tC18 cartridge, the filtrate was diluted with water, and the mixture was then analyzed by ESI triple-quadrupole LC-MS/MS. Grayanotoxins were only found in the foreign wild honey and were not detected in Korean honey, Korean honeycomb honey, or Korean wild honey. Three of the samples contained grayanotoxin I, II, and III, and one sample contained only grayanotoxins I and III. The lowest level for grayanotoxin I was 3.13 ${\pm}$ 0.00 mg/kg, and the highest level was 12.93 ${\pm}$ 0.01 mg/kg. The levels of grayanotoxin II were 0.84 ${\pm}$ 0.01 mg/kg, 0.92 ${\pm}$ 0.00 mg/kg and 1.08 ${\pm}$ 0.01 mg/kg, respectively. The lowest level of grayanotoxin III was 0.25 ${\pm}$ 0.01 mg/kg and the highest level was 3.29 ${\pm}$ 0.74 mg/kg. Through this study, safety management for foreign wild honey has been enabled.

Objective : For the standardization and quality control of eleutheroside E in Eleutherococcus species, HPLC analysis was performed and eleutherosdie E content was compared in 23 kinds of Eleutherococcus species collected from Korea and China. Methods : The content of eleutheroside E in stem bark of Eleutherococcus species collected from Korea and China were analyzed by HPLC. 0.5% phosphoric acid and acetonitrile was used as mobile solvent. Validation of HPLC analysis method was confirmed by analyzing specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy following ICH guideline. Results : Content of eleutheroside E was determined to be 1.0-1.6% and 0.5-0.8% in Korean and Chinese E. senticosus, respectively. Content of eleutheroside E in E. sessiliflorus was 0.7-1.1% and 0.2-0.4% respectively in Korean and Chinese origin. All calibration curves showed good linear regression. The method showed good precision and accuracy with intra-day and inter-day variations of 0.880-3.442% (RSD) and 0.606-3.328% (RSD), respectively, and average recovery was of 0.141-1.363% (RSD), for the eleutheroside E analyzed. Conclusion : These results might be used to establish a criterion of eleutheroside E in Eleutherococcus species.

Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis as a representative method of nuclear analytical technique, has advantages of non-destructive, simultaneous multi-element analysis with the characteristics of absolute measurement method. Up to date, $k_0$-quantitative method which is accurate, convenient and user-friendly, has been generalized world-widely. In this study, it is intented to introduce the general concept of $k_0$-method and to measure $k_0$-parameters for the future implementation to our NAA system. For this objectives, the definition of relevant factors for the quantitative analysis and the equation for the experimental determination of parameters such as $Q_0$(${\alpha}$) and f were summarized. Furthermore, a foundation for the $k_0$-standardization method was prepared through the measurement of ${\alpha}$ and f-value which depend on the specific character of irradiation hole at NAA#1-hole of HANARO research reactor.

This study was performed to evaluate the geometric standardization of periapical intraoral radiography. Image distortion was measured by analysing serial radiography obtained from dry skull using 5 types of bite registration device. After 16 weeks, the angular distortion of Pattern resin was 0.26±0.14 degree(Horizontal angle 0.17±0.14, Vertical angle 0.16±0.11) which was the lowest among the 5 registration device, and that of putty type Exaflex was 0.49±0.35 degree(Horizontal angle 0.42±0.35, Vertical angle 0.17±0.13) which was the highest. The mean amount of distortion variance of Tooth shade acrylic at each experimental period was 0.06±0.08 which was the lowest among the 5 registration device, and that of XCP alone was 0.ll±0.13 which was the highest.

Phlorotannins are reported to have diverse biological properties. However, no analytical methods for the standardization of phlorotannin preparations have been reported. Herein, we developed and validated an analytical method for the determination of dieckol in phlorotannin extracts (PRT) using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The optimum HPLC conditions consisted of a Supelco Discovery C18 column stationary phase, a mobile phase (A: 15 % HPLC grade methanol in deionized water, B: methanol), UV detection at 230 nm, and a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. The optimized chromatographic conditions were validated and exhibited good specificity and linearity ($R^2$ > 0.9994-1.0000). The recoveries were in the range of 100.9-102.3 %. The method had good intermediate (%RSD 1.2) and intra-day (%RSD 0.4-1.7) assay precisions. This HPLC method had good accuracy and quality in the determination of dieckol in PRT.

We developed the logical methods to analyze economic impacts of standardization and cleared up effects of performing KS in micro and macro aspects. This study is performed through analysing foreign studies and results from surveys. The advanced methods performing standardization as a form of 'Korean industrial standards' are suggested here, which are based on results of this study. The major consequences of this study are followings. The micro economic impact is that each company gets 604.5 millions won a year through performing KS A and F(discount rate 4.5%) and 1.46 trillions won is the macro economic impact through performing total KS A and F, which comes to 0.245% of GDP.

Objective : The terminology of degenerative disc disease lacks official standardization. Lacks of such standardization may provoke some clinical and litigation problems. The authors investigated interobserver and intraobserver variability in interpretation of lumbar disc abnormality. Methods : Magnetic resonance imaging studies of the lumbar spine performed prospectively in 50 patients, were read blindly by three doctors dealing spinal disorders, using two nomenclature. Nomenclature I was normal, bulging, protrusion, extrusion. Nomenclature II was normal, bulging, herniation without neural compression, with neural compression. Intraobserver and interobserver variation were measured statistically. Results : Interobserver agreement was 70.4-80.8% for nomenclature I, 76.2-80.2% for nomenclature II. Intraobserver agreement was 84.0-88.0% for nomenclature I, 79.2-86.8% for nomenclature II. Interobserver Kappa statistic was 0.53-0.56 for nomenclature I, 0.54-0.57 for nomenclature II. Intraobserver Kappa statistic was 0.60-0.85 for nomenclature I, 0.53-0.72 for nomenclature II. Conclusion : Experienced doctors showed only moderate interobserver agreement when interpreting disc status on lumbar magnetic resonance imaging. Intraobserver agreement was superior to interbserver. The standardization of nomenclatures for lumbar disc extension beyond interspace are needed.

Background: Recently, Cervi Parvum Cornu pharmacopuncture has been widely used. But no studies on the indicator materials for Cervi Parvum Cornu pharmacopuncture have been conducted. The aim of this study was to select indicator materials that would aid in the uniform preparation of standardized Cervi Parvum Cornu pharmacopuncture. Methods: Three lots of Cervi Parvum Cornu pharmacopuncture were analysed. Each lot was prepared using the same methods and materials. Chondroitin sulfate, alanine, and leucine were selected as the indicator materials for Cervi Parvum Cornu. For standardization, chondroitin sulfate analysis was performed using the colorimetric method, while alanine and leucine were analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Results: Analysis of the three lots of Cervi Parvum Cornu pharmacopuncture found chondroitin sulfate levels of $108.9{\pm}17.3ug/ml$, $118.8{\pm}5.0ug/ml$ and $112.3{\pm}11.9ug/ml$. Alanine levels were $44.9{\pm}2.8ug/ml$, $44.6{\pm}0.3ug/ml$, and $43.9{\pm}0.2ug/ml$. Leucine levels were $29.6{\pm}0.7ug/ml$, $29.0{\pm}0.1ug/ml$, and $29.4{\pm}0.1ug/ml$. Conclusion: These results suggest that chondroitin sulfate, alanine, and leucine may be useful for the standardization of Cervi Parvum Cornu pharmacopuncture.
