Many visualization tools have been designed to aid information processing during whole genome projects. We have developed a trace viewer program, ChroView, which can read a chromatogram file and display the chromatogram traces of the four bases. The program can be used to examine sequencing quality and base-calling errors. It can also help researchers to edit and save base-calling results while browsing the traces. Additionally, this program has a basecalling feature which can produce supplementary data for validation of the results from other base-calling programs.

Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the discriminative criteria of 6 kinds of Achyranthis Radix by HPLC/DAD. Methods : 20-hydroxyecdysone is isolated by silica gel column chromatography ($CHCl_3$:MeOH, 7:1-1:1 v/v) and identified by nuclear magnetic resonance, A high-performance liquid chromatographic method with diode array detection was used to identify 20-hydroxyecdysone in A. japonica. The analysis was performed using $C_{18}$ column with isocratic elution consisted of 18% acetonitrile and 82% water and the detection was carried out by DAD at 254 nm. 6 kinds of Achyranthis Radix from different locations were extracted in MeOH. Each extracts was analyzed by HPLC in same condition as used in analysis of 20-hydroxyecdysone. The identities of each extracts were determined by comparing the retention time and UV spectrum with that of reference compound. Results : 1. A. japonica and A. bidentata showed the similar patterns of HPLC chromatogram and 20-hydroxycedysone was present in both of them because the peaks having the same retention time and UV spectrum as 20-hydroxyecdysone were shown in the HPLC chromatograms of A. japonica and A. bidentata 2. Cyathula officinalis and C. capitata showed the similar patterns of HPLC chromatogram. The peak having the same retention time and UV spectrum as 20-hydroxyecdysone was shown in the HPLC chromatogram of C. capitata but not shown in the HPLC chromatogram of C. officinalis. 3. Two species of medicinal drugs from Sacheon province showed similar patterns of HPLC chromatogram. Achyranthis Radix from Sacheon(wild) did not have 20-hydroxycedysone but Achyranthis Radix from Sacheon(cultivated) showed the peak having the same retention time as 20-hydroxyecdysone but UV spectrum of the peak was different from that of 20-hydroxyecdysone. Conclusions : These results suggested that 20-hydroxyecdysone could be the discriminative criteria for Achyranthis Radix contain 20-hydroxyecdysone though they belong to different genus and species. And the patterns of HPLC chromatogram also could be the discriminative criteria as the different species of Achyranthis Radix belonging to the same genus showed similar patterns of HPLC chromatogram.

The method for the estimation of trace elements in hair is studied on this paper modifying the circular paper chromatography method shown by Giri and Balakrishnan for the estimation of vitamins from the multivitamin preparation. The elements studied are Ni, Al, Mn, Mg, Zn, Ca, Co, Cu, and Fe. The content of the element is estimated quantitatively by comparison the size and the color density of spots of the standard chromatogram prepared by the known amount of each standard substance and the chromatogram prepared from sample solution, after checking those chromatogram qualitatively. The comparative study has been made between the results from this method and the results from the other methods which are applying routinely at this laboratories. The experimental errors at each elements were within 10% limits. There was no interference between each elements. It is recommendable that this method can be applied to treat numerous speciemens saving times within experimental error of 10%.

Relationship between againg and characteristic change of asphalt is not well known through asphalt rheolopy. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate characteristic change of asphalt cement due to againg based on experimental results of chromatogram and selected physical properties. Currently, three virgin asphalt cements were tested for physical properties and chromatograms before and after artificially conditioning for againg. Results in the current study showed that againg caused significant changes of physical properties and increase of larger size molecules and approximately corresponding reduction of smaller size molecule in asphalt cement molecular size distribution.

Moleclar size distribution of three AC-20 asphalt cements were observed using high pressure - gel permeation chromatograph (HP-GPC). Bituminous concrete specimens were made using the asphalt cements and one aggre¬gate in laboratory to measure mechanical properties, tensile strength CIS) and resilient modulusCM,J. in dry and wet conditons. Results of mechanical property tests and profile of molecular size distribution of asphalt cements were analyzed to evaluate the relatonship of mechanical property with chromatogram. Regression analy¬sis showed a strong correlation between a mechanical property and sliced percent areas of chromatogram. Mathematical prediction models were developed based on the regression analysis. It was shown that characteris¬tics of asphalt cement chromatogram could be successfully used for estimation of selected mechanical property of asphalt concrete .

In order to predict the chromatogram for organic acid in ion chromatography, Langmuir isotherm parameters were obtained by Retention Time Method (RTM) and moment method. Ion chromatography analysis for formic acid was performed and compared with theoretically predicted profiles under isocratic condition. Band profiles were estimated with the equilibrium-dispersive model of chromatography using a PDEsolver Macsyma . The relationship between the characteristics of chromatogram and the variable operating condition in chromatography such as the flow rate, ionic strength and injection volume was studied. Satisfactory agreement was observed between the experimental and the estimated chromatograms with parameters obtained form the moment method.

A specific and sensitive gas chromatographic (GC) procedure with the flame photometric detector (FPD) was developed for determination of barbiturates such as barbital, allobarbital, secobarbital, phenobarbital and thiopental in plasma. In order to evaluate the performance of the FPD, the results were campared with those of the flame ionization detector (FID). After extraction of barbiturates from plasma, the barbiturates were quantitatively N, N-dimethylthiometyl (MTM)-derivatized with methylthiomethyl chloride in 1, 8-diazabicyclo [5, 4, 0] undec-7-ene catalyst. The data indicate that the FPD is about 4 times more sensitive than the FID for barbiturates, although it is less reproducible. The FPD also produced chromatogram with less back ground for extracted plasma sample. The FPD also produced chromatogram with less background for extracted plasma sample. The minimum detectable amount of MTM-thiopental on 3% OV-225 column was 4, 4fmol and that of other MTM-barbiturate was about 10.0fmol.

Sesquiterpenes of Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, KG) and American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium, AG) were Isolated by simultaneous distillation and extraction (SDE) with 30% methanol and n-hexane or adsorption using C18 Sep-Pak . The sesquiterpenes in KG and AG were compared each other by using TLC and GC/MS. Thin layer chromatogram of KG gave 4~5 spots of terpenes colored by vanillin-sulfuric acid, while AG did one major spot. Total ion chromatogram of KG showed about 30 peaks of sesquiterpene having molecular weight 204. Among these, 9 components such as alloaromadendrene, germacrene B, isocaryophyllene, $\alpha$-neoclovene, ${\gamma}$-muurolene and $\beta$-panasinsene together occupied 81.5% of total sesquiterpenes identified. In AG, however, only 3 components, i.e., isocaryophyllene, $\beta$-bisabolene, $\beta$-sesquiphellandrene occupied 79.3% of total sesquiterpenes identified. Especially isocaryophyllene was a dominant component of AG occupying 56.6%. Eight sesquiterpenes, including alloaromadendrene, germacrene B and $\alpha$-humulene, were not detected in AG. These results indicate that sesquiterpenes could be used as indices for the chemical difference between KG and AG.

A strain producing soybean paste flavor was isolated from traditional Korean soybean paste. The isolate was identified as Bacillus subtilis PM3. The neutral fraction representing the traditional soybean paste aroma was obtained from the whole volatile components produced by B. subtilis PM3 in cooked soybean. Each separated peak from the neutral fraction of gas chromatogram was identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and Kovat's retention index, and the aromas of each peak were investigated by a sniffing test with the exercise panel. The twenty-nine components, including six character impact compounds and twelve components of flavors of Korean soybean paste, were confirmed. Some regions of gas chromatogram represented the soybean paste odor. It has been confirmed that traditional Korean soybean paste can be manufactured with the strain B. subtilis PM3.
