A comparison of the analytical data obtained by three $k_0$-NAA software programs was carried out using both the airborne particulate matter collected from an urban site and the certified reference materials of the air filter and urban dust to evaluate the performance of the analysis. The individual $k_0$-NAA standardization methods of three countries, Korea, China and Vietnam which had been modified from the well established $k_0$-program were used for the comparative analysis. The measured concentrations of 30 elements from the two kinds of air samples based on this software were in agreement with each other within about 20% analytical error except for a few elements. By contrast, the results of China and Vietnam were moderately higher than that of Korea due to a systematic error associated with the detection efficiency, gamma peak analysis and geometric effect.

The seeds of Abrus precatorius L. (Family- Fabaceae) constitute the drugs Abrus, Gunja, or Ratti in commerce. In the Indian System of Medicine, the seeds are used for sciatica, paralysis, headache, dysentery, diarrhoea, leprosy, ulcer, nervous disorders, alopecia, as well as anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antibacterial, antitumor, sexual stimulant and abortifacient. Seeds are poisonous and therefore are used after mitigation. The protein abrin is responsible for the highly toxic properties of seeds. Quantitative HPTLC analysis of the methanolic extract of seeds determined the presence of 0.4018% gallic acid and 0.4009% glycyrrhizin. The present study was undertaken to develop an HPTLC method, as well as ascertain the physico-chemical, morphological and histological parameters to establish the authenticity of A. precatorius seeds.

Background: To improve the measurement accuracy of liquid-scintillation counting for activity standardization, it is necessary to significantly reduce the background caused by thermal noise or after-pulses. We have therefore improved a movable 3 photomultiplier (3PM)-γ coincidence-counting method using the logical sum of three double coincidences for β events. Materials and Methods: We designed a new data-acquisition system in which β events are obtained by counting the logical sum of three double coincidences. The change in β-detection efficiency can be derived by moving three photomultiplier tubes sequentially from the liquid-scintillation vial. The validity of the method was investigated by activity measurement of ¹³⁴Cs calibrated at the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) with 4π(PC)β-γ(NaI(Tl)) coincidence counting using a proportional counter (PC) for the β detector. Results and Discussion: Measurements were taken over 14 counting intervals for each liquidscintillation sample by displacing three photomultiplier tubes up to 45 mm from the sample. The dead time in each β- and γ-counting channel was adjusted to be a non-extending type of 20 ㎲. The background ranged about 1.2-3.3 s^-1, such that the contributions of thermal noise or after-pulses were negligible. As the β-detection unit was moved away from the sample, the β-detection efficiencies varied between 0.54 and 0.81. The result obtained by the method at the reference date was 396.3 ± 1.7 kBq/g. This is consistent with the KRISS-certified value of 396.0 ± 2.0 kBq/g within the uncertainty range. Conclusion: The movable 3PM-γ method developed in the present work not only succeeded in reducing background counts to negligible levels but enabled β-detection efficiency to be varied by a geometrical method to apply the efficiency extrapolation method. Compared with our earlier work shown in the study of Hwang et al. [2], the measurement accuracy has much improved. Consequently, the method developed in this study is an improved method suitable for activity standardization of β-γ emitters.

GCSB-5 preparation is a purified extract from a mixture six herbal medicines (Acanthopanacis Cortex, Achyranthis Radix, Saposhnikoviae Radix, Cibotii Rhizoma, Glycine Semen Nigra, Eucommiae Cortex) that have been widely used in traditional medicine to treat various bone disorders. This study was carried out to obtain the HPLC analysis method that can be used to establish quantitative analysis of Glycine Semen Nigra and Eucommiae Cortex for standardization of GCSB-5 preparation. HPLC analysis methods for the simultaneous determination of genistin (Glycine Semen Nigra) and geniposide (Eucommiae Cortex) were established for the quality control of herbal medicinal raw material and preparation. And validation of HPLC analysis methods were conformed for verification of HPLC methods by check to specificity, linearity, intra-day precision, inter-day precision and accuracy following ICH guideline. As the result of quantitative analysis, the contents of genistin and geniposide in the raw material of GCSB-5 preparation were 0.0426-0.0427 mg/g and 0.431-0.432 mg/g. And GCSB-5 preparation contained genistin of 0.0202-0.0203 mg/capsule and geniposide of 0.211-0.212 mg/capsule, respectively.

ADC는 밀가루개량제로 사용기준이 설정되어 있는 식품첨가물이나 이의 사용량과 잔류량을 확인할 수 있는 시험분석법이 확립되어 있지 않은 상태임으로 사전 사후 안전관리를 위해서 ADC의 분해산물인 biurea를 밀가루 및 빵류에서 분석 가능한 방법을 확립하고자 하였다. 식품 중 ADC의 분해산물인 biurea 분석을 위하여 컬럼, 이동상 조건, 전처리 조건, 기기조건 등을 검토하여 LC/MS/MS를 이용한 분석법을 확립하였으며, 개발된 분석법의 회수율, 분석법의 유효성 검증 등을 검토하였다. 회수율은 94.3-112.5%로 양호하였으며, 검출한계(LOD)는 0.003 mg/L의 농도이었고, 정량한계(LOQ)는 0.01 mg/L의 농도이었다. 확립된 분석법에 의해 밀가루 등 51건, 빵 등의 가공식품 59건에 대하여 biurea 함량을 분석한 결과 밀가루 1건에서 2.76 mg/kg의 농도로 검출되었고(검출율: 2%), 빵 등 가공식품에서는 16건이 검출(검출율: 27%)되었으며 검출농도범위는 0.19-18.01 mg/kg(평균: 3.79 mg/kg)이었다. ADC의 사용기준인 밀가루 1 kg당 45mg에 비하여 매우 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통하여 확립된 식품 중 biurea 분석법으로 밀가루, 빵류 등의 가공식품에 대한 ADC의 사후관리에 기여할 것으로 본다.

Ursolic acid was isolated from Prunellae Herba (Prunella vulgaris var. lilacina) and identified by direct comparison with an authentic sample. A method of analysis for the evaluation of ursolic acid was developed based on extraction of ground plant material, followed by quantitative determination using capillary gas chromatography of the TMS derivative. Quantitative analysis by GC after derivatisation under mild silylating conditions showed 0.31% ursolic acid in 20 samples collected throughout regions of Korea while no ursolic acid was detected in the samples of the whole plant of Thesium chinense, a substitute for Prunellae Herba in southern regions of Korean peninsula.

After its introduction in Korea, nail art is becoming active, especially among women in their 20s and 30s who are interested in fashion and beauty. Although self-nail tips are available online in various designs for each brand that is currently on the market, these designs and sizes of self-nail tips on the market are different for each age group. Since the design or size is not suggested for the different situations, there are difficulties in purchasing products that match the shape and size of nails of consumers. In this study, frequency analysis was performed using 'SPSS statistics 21.0 for windows program' to analyze data obtained by direct measurement method and 3D scanner measurement method for Korean women in their 20s. For comparative analysis between direct and 3D scanner measurements, a corresponding sample, 'T-test', was performed. As a result, we proposed the standardization of nail tip size after comparative analysis between direct measurement and 3D scanner measurement. Previous studies have been proceeding with direct measurement method. However, this study introduced a 3D scanner measurement method in the nail field and attempted the standardization of nail size by age group of Korean women. Importantly, this sutdy suggests standardization of nail tip size among missing body sizes.
