LC/MS/MS를 이용하여 발기부전 (impotence) 치료제인 sildenafil 및 유사체인 homosildenafil, vardenafil, tadalafil을 분석하는 방법을 확립하였다. 이온화 방법으로는 electrospray ionization (ESI)와 atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) 방법을 사용하였으며 최대 감도와 재현성을 나타내는 조건을 찾기 위하여 여러 가지 파라미터를 변화시켜서 비교하였다. MRM (multiple reaction monitoring)을 위한 적절한 생성이온 (product ion)을 얻기 위하여 ESI 방법에서는 capillary voltage, cone voltage, extractor, entrance, RF lens를 변화시켰으나 전구이온 (precursor ion)을 제외한 뚜렸한 토막이온 (fragment ion)은 생성되지 않았다. 한편, APCI 방법의 경우 entrance, collision energy, exit, corona voltage, cone voltage, extractor, RF lens, cone gas, desolvation gas를 변화시켰을 때 다른 파라미터들의 변화에 따른 전구이온을 제외한 product ion 생성 패턴의 변화는 감지되지 않고 단지 RF lens 조건의 변화에서 precursor ion을 비롯한 토막이온들의 생성과 더불어 S/N의 증가로 인한 검출 한계의 향상이 나타났다. HPLC에서의 최적 분리 조건과 질량 분석기에서 최대 감도를 나타내는 이동상 조건도 조사되었는데 10 mM ammonium formate (pH 4.8):acetonitrile=70:30 의 등용매 용리조건이 좋은 감도를 나타내었으며, 최적의 방법인 ESI-MRM 방법에서 검출한계 (S/N>5)는 sildenafil은 $0.10{\mu}g/mL$, homosildenafil은 $0.025{\mu}g/mL$, vardenafil은 $0.025{\mu}g/mL$ 그리고 tadalafil은 $0.25{\mu}g/mL$이었다.

This paper reports a novel microfluidic system, by which microfluidic delivery, transport and control can be digitally realized in femtoliter scale. Microelectronic grade $N_2$ from a pressurized canister was passed through HPLC tubing into a micro injector. The micro injector was driven and controlled digitally by the control system that can apply various control parameters such as pulse frequencies. A front-end of micro nozzle was inserted the dyed oil to collect droplets injected. The diameter of a droplet was measured by a microscope and a CCD camera, and then its volume can be calculated on the assumption that the droplet is spherical. The micro nozzles were simply pulled in glass capillary tubes by the micro puller self-made, and the geometry parameters of the micro nozzles can be adjusted easily. Experiments have successfully been carried out, and the results demonstrated that the proposed digital micro injector possesses three significant advantages : precise ultra-small liquid volume in femtoliter scale, digital microfluidic control and micro devices fabricated by simple glass process, not based on IC process.

Carvedilol is administered as a racemic mixture of the R(＋)- and S(-)-enantiomers, although they exhibit different pharmacological effects. To investigate the stereoselective pharmacoki-netics, the enantiomeric separation of carvedilol in human plasma was undertaken using capil-lary electrophoresis (CE). Resolution of the enantiomers was achieved using 2-hydoxypropyl-$\beta$-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector. Phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 4.0) containing 10 mM of 2-hydoxypropropyl-$\beta$-cyclodextrin was used as electrolytic buffer. Achiral separation was carried out with the same electrolytic buffer without chiral selector. Following a single oral administra-tion of 25-mg carvedilol to 11 healthy, male volunteers, stereoselective pharmacokinetic analy-sis was undertaken. The maximum plasma concentrations ( $C_{max}$) were 48.9 and 21.6 ng/mL for (R)-carvedilol and (S)-carvedilol, respectively, determined by the chiral method. The profiles of the plasma concentration of (RS)-carvedilol showed $C_{max}$ of 71.5, 72.2, and 73.5 ng/mL, as determined by the CE, HPLC/FD methods and calculations from the data of the chiral method, respectively.y.y.

대표적인 부패산물들로 잘 알려진 indole, skatole, 그리고 $\rho$-cresol 등을 측정하기 위한 방법으로 HPLC, spectrophotometric 법, 그리고 GC 및 GC/MSD 방법 등이 있으며, 수십년 간에 걸쳐 이러한 물질들의 분석이 이루어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 많은 전처리 과정을 생략하여 분석물의 손실을 최소화하면서 GC 및 GC/MSD를 이용하여 쉽고 빠르게 측정할 수 있는 조건과 방법을 확립하였다. 측정사료는 건강한 성인 남녀의 분변이었으며, 내부 표준물질로 4-isopropylphenol을 사용하였으며, 분변 중 indole의 함량은 10~90 ppm 수준이었으며, skatole의 경우에는 약 40 ppm 정도로 검출되었다. 또한, $\rho$-cresol은 30~300 ppm 수준으로 그 분포 범위가 아주 넓게 나타났었다. GC/MSD를 이용하여 시료 중상기 물질들을 정성적으로 정확히 확인할 수 있었다. DB-17 capillary 컬럼을 이용하여 시료의 전처리 과정을 생략하여도 분석하려던 부패산물의 정성 및 정량에 방해되는 불순 peak는 없었고, 분리능도 매우 우수하였으므로 보다 빠르고 신속하게 상기 물질들을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 본 연구를 통해 개발된 신속분석법이 분변에 존재하는 주요 부패산물들의 정량에 유용하게 사용되리라 판단된다.

Secreted arginase from Evernia prunastri thallus has been purified 616-fold from the incubation medium. Purified arginase was resolved as only one peak in a capillary electrophoresis with a pI value of 5.35. The protein contained high amounts of acidic amino acids, such as Asx and Glx, and a relatively high quantity of Ser and Gly. The molecular mass of native, purified arginase was estimated as about 26 kDa by SE-HPLC. Substrate saturated kinetic showed a typical Michaelis-Menten relationship with a K_m value of 3.3 mM L-arginine. Atranorin behaved as a mixed activator of the enzyme (apparent $K_m$ = 0.96 mM); whereas evernic and usnic acid were revealed as non competitive inhibitors (apparent $K_m$ values were 3.16 mM and 3.05 mM, respectively). Kinetics of atranorin binding indicated that saturation was reached from 0.18 ${\mu}mol$ of the total atranorin and the occurrence of multiple sites for the ligand. This agrees with a possible aggregation of several enzyme subunits during the interaction process. A value of binding sites of about 12 was obtained. The binding of evernic acid was saturated from 23 nmol of total phenol. The number of binding sites was about 5. The loss of the binding ability of evernic acid could be interpreted as a single negative cooperatively. Usnic acid behaves in a similar way to evernic acid, although the binding saturation occurs at $0.14\;{\mu}moles$ of the ligand. This binding appears to be unspecific, and has 28 usnic acid binding sites to the protein.

The total hydrocarbon distribution of oil products obtained from the pyrolysis of four kinds of mixtures of polyethylene-polystyrene waste has been studied by multidimensional chromatography(high performance liquid chromatography followed by capillary gas chromatography)/mass spectrometry. Saturated, unsaturated and aromatic hydrocarbons in oil products were selectively pre-separated according to structural groups by HPLC and the weight fraction of each group was estimated by analysis of each component using GC-FID response factors. The hydrocarbon distribution of aliphatic fraction consists of $C_{5}$ to $C_{25}$ saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons. And that of aromatics fraction consists of benzene, toluene, xylene, styrene, propenyl benzene, naphthalene, and some of derivatives. Pyrolysis temperature did not affect the ratio of total weight fraction of aliphatic over aromatic hydrocarbon distribution in case of PS only and PE-PS mixtures (1:1 and 1:4 wt. ratio) as a feed while affected the ratio of total wt. fraction in case of PE only. The optimal temperature for the maximum oil production was $600^{\circ}C$ for pyrolysis of PS and 1:1 and 1:4 mixtures of PE and PS. The optimal condition for aromatic recovery was $600^{\circ}C$ with 1:1 mixture of PE and PS. In this condition, aromatic was produced up to 90% of total oil product. The maximum yield of toluene, xylene, styrene, and propenyl benzene were 8.6, 8.9, 51.0 and 7.4% of feed for pyrolysis PS at $700^{\circ}C$, respectively. However, only 1.3% naphthalene was recovered at $700^{\circ}C$ with 1:1 PE:PS(by wt.).

In this study we report a new method for the synthesis of a silica monolithic column bed with bimodal pores (throughpores and mesopores). The template induced synthesis method was used to direct bimodal pores simultaneously instead of the usual post base-treating method. Block polymer Pluronic F127 was chosen as a dual-function template to form hierarchically porous silica monolith with both macropores and mesopores. This is a simplification of the method of monolithic column preparation. Poly(ethylene glycol) was used as a partial substitute for F127 can effectively prevent shrinkage during the monolith aging process without losing much surface area (944 $m^2/g$ to 807 $m^2/g$). More importantly, the resultant material showed a much narrower mesopore size (centered at 6 nm) distribution than that made using only F127 as the template reagent, which helps the mass transfer process. The solvent washing method was used to remove the remaining organic template, and it was proved to be effective enough. The new synthesis method makes the fabrication of the silica monolithic column (especially capillary column) much easier. All the structure parameters indicate that monolith PFA05 prepared by the above method is a good material for separation, with the merits of much higher surface area than usual commercial HPLC silica particles, suitable mesopore volume, narrow mesopore size distribution, low shrinkage and it is easily prepared.

In the present work , the transport mechanism of a capsaicin derivative, DA-5018, through blood-brain barrier (BBB) has been investigated to evaluate the feasibility of potential drug development. The result of pharmacokinetic parameters obtained from the intravenous injection of plasma volume marker,$[3^H]RSA$ and $[{14}^C]DA-5018$, indicated that both AUC, area under the plasma concentration curve and VD, volume of distribution in brain of $[3^H]RSA$ agreed with those reported ($1620{\pm}10 $percentage injected dose minute per milliliter (%IDmin/ml) and $12.0{\pm}0.1{\mu}l/g$, respectively). Elimination half-life and AUC of $[{14}^C]DA-5018$is corrected by the PHLC analysis, 19.6$\pm$1.2 min and 7.69$\pm$0.85% IDmin/ml, respectively. The metabolic rate of $[{14}^C]DA-5018$was very rapid. The blood-brain barrier permeability surface area (PS) product of $[{14}^C]DA-5018$ was calculated to be 0.24$\pm$0.05 $\mu$l/min/g. The result of internal carotid artery perfusion and capillary depletion suggested that [14C]DA-5018 pass through BBB with the time increasingly. Investigation of transport mechanism of $[{14}^C]DA-5018$ using agonist and antagonist suggested that vanilloid (capsaicin) receptor did not exist in the BBB, and nutrient carrier system in the BBB has no effect on the transport of DA-5018. In conclusion, despite the fact that penetration of DA-5018 through BBB is significant, the intact drug found in the brain tissue is small because of a rapid metabolism. Therefore, for the central analgesic effect of DA-5018, the method to increase the metabolic stability in plasma and the brain permeability should be considered.

Rutin은 GABA(γ-aminobutyric acid)와 더불어 콜레스테롤 저하, 혈당상승 억제, 고혈압 치료, 동맥경화 및 중풍 예방 등 다양한 뽕잎의 기능성을 나타내는 생리활성 물질로서 인식되고 있다. 뽕잎과 더불어 기능성 및 천연색소 자원으로서 유망시되고 있는 오디를 뽕나무 계통별로 수확하여 rutin 분석을 실시하고 계통간 특성을 살펴봄으로써 품종육종 효율을 높임은 물론 오디의 기능성 및 이용성을 증대시키고자 하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 공시계통의 평균함량은 0.14±0.050% DW이었으며, '사방소'는 0.29% DW로 가장 높은 함량을 나타낸 반면, '심설'은 가장 낮은 함량인 0.05% DW를 나타냈다. 2. 오디 중의 생육시기에 따른 rutin 함량의 경시적인 변화를 살펴본 결과, 뽕잎의 경우와 마찬가지로 '암뢰상', '청노상', '강선', '만생백피노상' 및 '사방소' 5계통 모두 수확시기가 이른 것의 오디에서 함량이 높았다. 3. Rutin 고함유 계통에 대한 오디로서의 이용가능성을 검토하기 위해 '사방소', '휘카스', '강선', '중호상', '만생백피노상' 및 '팔청시평 ' 6계통의 과실적 특성을 조사한 결과. '휘카스', '강선' 및 '팔청시평 ' 3계통은 수량, 과중, 당도 등 과실적 특성도 양호한 성적을 나타냈으므로 금후 오디생산과 기능성을 동시에 고려한 품종선택시 활용할 가치가 있는 우수계통으로 선발하였다. 4. 건조방법 및 저장방법이 식물체의 rutin 함량에 영향을 미치므로 오디 건조 및 저장시 지나친 고온과 저온을 피해야 하며, 식품으로 가공시에도 이 점에 주의하여 생리활성물질인 rutin의 섭취량을 늘리도록 하여야 할 것이다.
