  • The aim of this study was to investigate the hypoglycemic effects of saengshik in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and to explore the potential of three commercially available saengshik products (BS, LS, WS) as an alternative diabetic meal. Blood glucose levels were measured at 30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 minutes after the ingestion of experimental materials. In experiment 1, the amount of experimental materials remained the same. We measured blood glucose-related biomarkers as the area under the blood glucose response curve (AUC), glycemic index (GI), maximum concentration (Cmax), and time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax). AUC and Cmax of the experimental group showed significant differences compared to the control group, while GI and Tmax did not show significant differences among the groups but were lower in the experimental group compared to the control group. In experiment 2, carbohydrates were adjusted to the same amount. We measured blood glucose-related biomarkers in the same manner as Experiment 1 and obtained similar results. These hypoglycemic effects appear to be attributed to phytochemicals and dietary fiber found in whole, unrefined grains. These results suggest that saengshik exerts hypoglycemic effects by modulation of glucose-related biomarkers.

  • Alpinia katsumadai is used in traditional oriental medicine as an antiemetic and for treatment of stomach disorders. This study was to investigate the effect of the 50% methanol extract of Alpinia katsumadai and Puerariae thunbergiana on ethanol metabolism in rat. The administration of 50% methanol extract of Alpinia katsumadai significantly decrease the ethanol concentration in rat. The AUC and Cmax of Alpinia katsumadai was 3.1 and 2.4 times less than the control group, respectively. It was more effective than Pueraria thunbergiana is known to as ethanol detoxicant. Furthermore, we tested on its ethanol metabolizing effect with the preparation containing this herb (Haeju pill) in beagle. The AUC of Haeju pill was about 1.9 times less than the control group. It was estimated that the extract of Alpinia katsumadai had feasibility as a ethanol detoxication agent.

  • Lidocaine has been studied for many chronic pain conditions, including postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) and recently it has also been increasingly used in transdermal drug delivery systems. In this study, pharmacokinetics of a lidocaine patch was studied in four hairless male rats. The plasma concentration was determined by a validated LC/MS/MS method after applying a $3{\times}2cm^2$ (30mg) patch for 12 hours. From the plasma lidocaine concentration vs time curves, $AUC_{0-20h}$, Cmax, and Tmax of lidocaine patch were $2,926.32{\pm}335.28ng{\cdot}h/ml$, $256.86{\pm}29.63ng/ml$, and $6.00{\pm}2.31h$, respectively.

  • 라니티딘은 최근 위궤양 및 십이지장 궤양의 치료에 통상적으로 많이 처방되는 히스타민 H$_2$ receptor antagonist로 작용하는 약물이다. 이 약물의 Pharma-cokinetics에 대해서는 동물 및 사람에 있어서 이미 많은 연구가 되어 있다(1-4). 수용성 약물인 라니티딘은 정상인에 있어서 경구투여 후 흡수가 신속하나 불완전한 것으로 알려져 있다(4). 경구투여 후 개개인에 따른 처고 혈중농도(Cmax)가 상당히 큰 차이를 보이며, 생체내 이용률(Bioavailability)은 평균 50% 이나 최저 27%에서 최고 88%에 이르기까지 넓은 범위를 보이고 있다. 더욱이 공복 시 경구투여 하거나(5-8), jejunum에 직접 bolus 투여후(9) 혹은 심지어는 정맥주사후의 경우(10)에도 소위 'double-peak phenomenon'이라고 불리 우는 최고 혈중농도에 있어서 bimodal pattern을 나타낸다. 이처럼 highly variable한 약물들은 생물학적 동등성(Bioequivalence) 측면에서 제제를 평가할 때 상당히 중요하고도 어려운 과제이므로, 현재 세계적인 issue가 되고 있다.

  • The present work focuses on preparation of olanzapine, orally dispersing tablets by direct compression method. Effect of super disintegrant crospovidone, disintegration time, drug content on in vitro release has been studied. A factorial design was employed in formulating a prompt dispersible tablet. The selected independent variables crospovidone and fmelt showed significant effect on dependent variables i.e. disintegration time and percent drug dissolved. Disintegration time and percent drug dissolved decreased with increase in the level of crospovidone. The similarity factor $f_2$ was found to be 97.48 for the developed formulation indicating the release was similar to that of the marketed formulation. Pharmacokinetics of olanzapine after single-dose oral administration of orally disintegrating tablet in normal volunteers were evaluated and the results showed that PK parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC) of the designed ODT matrix were similar to those of commercial product, Zyprexa Zydis$^{(R)}$ as a reference.

  • The effect of hydrochlorothiazide on the pharmacokinetics of carteolol in rabbits was studied. Animals were divided into two groups (group I and group II). Group I received carteolol (12mg/kg) and group II received carteolol (12mg/kg) with hydrochlorothiazide (20mg/kg) orally. The carteolol concentration in serum was measured by spectrofluorometric method and its pharmacokinetic parameter values were calculated. The serum concentration of carteolol in group II was significantly increased when compared with those in group I at 10min (p<0.01), and at 30min (p<0.05) after p. o. administration. In addition, the absorption rate constant of carteolol in group II was slightly increased and Tmax of carteolol in group II was significantly shortened (p<0.05) and Cmax of carteolol in group II was significantly increased (p<0.02) when compared with those in group I. But elimination rate constant and biological half-life of carteolol were similar in both groups.

  • This study was conducted to observe the distribution of josamycin, a macrolide antibiotic in flounder. Josamycin was administered orally to the flounder at the dose of 100 mg 1 kg josamycin in flounder. Josamycin in blood and various organs of flounder was analyzed using reversed phase HPLC. In blood kinetics study, Cmax was shown 9.50 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ at 45 min. after treatment and then decreased slowly up to 8th day. Concentration of josamycin in muscle was 0.47$\mu\textrm{g}$/g tissue at 11th day of the treatment and 0.41$\mu\textrm{g}$/g tissue at 7th day for liver. The concentration of josamycin in all the tested organs except gall bladder was decreased as the time passed. On the contrary, josamycin in gall bladder was increased 3.8 times at the day of 5th compared to that of the 1st day aftreatment.

  • The purpose of this study is to improve the quantitative precipitation estimation method based on satellite brightness temperature. The non-linear equation for rainfall estimation is improved by analysing precipitation cases around the Korean peninsula in summer. Radar reflectivity is adopted the CAPPI 1.5 and CMAX composite fields that provided by the Korea Meteorological Agency (KMA). In addition, the satellite data are used infrared, water vapor and visible channel measured from meteorological imager sensor mounted on the Chollian satellite. The improved algorithm is compared with the results of the A-E method and CRR analytic function. POD, FAR and CSI are 0.67, 0.76 and 0.21, respectively. The MAE and RMSE are 2.49 and 6.18 mm/h. As the quantitative error was reduced in comparison to A-E and qualitative accuracy increased in compare with CRR, the disadvantage of both algorithms are complemented. The method of estimating precipitation through a relational expression can be used for short-term forecasting because of allowing precipitation estimation in a short time without going through complicated algorithms.

  • Silkworms have traditionally been used to produce silk and textiles. However, steamed and freeze-dried mature silkworm larval powder (SMSP) contain large amounts of amino acids, vitamins, and essential minerals. In this study, we investigated the potential of SMSP as a hangover-relieving agent. Thirty individuals who met the selection criteria and exclusion criteria were included in the study and subsequently underwent a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-design human application test. Importantly, the test product containing SMSP (CKDHC) was proven to alleviate hangovers through a significant reduction in the plasma concentration of acetaldehyde in the context of an alcohol-induced hangover model. In particular, from 0.5 h after SMSP intake, the blood acetaldehyde concentration (mg/L), area under the time curve (AUC; indicating the degree of bioabsorption of blood acetaldehyde), and the highest blood acetaldehyde concentration (Cmax) were reduced. Altogether, these results suggest that the test product (CKDHC) exhibits an accelerated hangover-relieving effect.
