Free radical scavengers in the bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC), demethoxycurcumin (DMC) and curcumin of turmeric (Curcuma longa) were screened, identified, quantified and isolation using coupled off-line-2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) and on-line screening high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-ABTS assay. There was a very small margin of error between the off-line-ABTS method and the on-line screening HPLC-ABTS method.

In this work, the quantitative estimation of fatty acids in sesame and perilla oil by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was investigated. The analysis of fatty acids were separated by HPLC using a differential refractometer as a detector. With micro Bondapak $C_{18}FFAA$ column and acetonitril, chloroform and tetrahydrofuran mixture as a solvent. In the fatty acid compositions, sesame oil was composed mainly of linoleic and oleic acids 49.6 % and 34.7%. In perilla oil, the amounts of oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids were 13.6%, 14.5% and 63.8%, respectively.

Evaluation method of crude drug preparations was studied in Saengmaek-san. Zig-zag TLC scanning profiles and high performance liquid chromatograms were obtained from Saengmaek-san and its each crude drug. A method using TLC densitometry and high performance liquid chromatography was established for the precise determination of ginsenoside $Rb_1$ in Saengmaek-san containing Ginseng Radix. Consequently, ginsenosicle $Rb_1$ content was 0.45-0.48 mg per g of Saengmaek-san. This method was found to be useful for the quality evaluation of oriental medicinal preparations.

For monitoring lipid oxidation development in cooked ground pork during refrigerationm, malonaldehydethiobarbituric acid(MA-TBA) contents were measured using high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). As the oxidation proceeded during refergeration, TBA-reaction substances(TBARS) absorbances increased and the corresponding HPLC peak areas also increased proportationately. The correlation coefficient between the HPLC peak areas and MA-TBA absorbance were 0.9979. The treatemtn of cetrimide, an ion pairing agent, gave a complete resolution of the MA-TBA complex and the butanol extraction of the complex increased its recovery by 37.8%. Both cetrimide treatment and butanol extraction are essential steps for analyzing MA-TBA complex in ground pork wiht HPLC. A reliable and specific measurement of NA-TBA in ground pork was successfully performed using HPLC.

Complex, ill-defined mixtures of natural origin are often used as nutrients in the production of biological products through microbial fermentation. Product yields are affected by variation in these natural products. Yeast extract is a typical example of these natural products. Since it is a mixture of amino acids, peptides and nucleic acids, its composition is not well characterized. In this study, we investigated the properties of thiamine hydrochloride, riboflavin and pyridoxine hydrochlride in yeast extract by using a gel filtration chromatography, ion exchange chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. Yeast extract solution was fractionated by gel filtration chromatography and ion exchange chromatography, and then, each fraction was analyzed by using a high performance liquid chromatography.

Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) systems are integral to modern analytical laboratories, necessitating careful maintenance and operation protocols to ensure optimal performance. This document provides comprehensive guidelines for the proper shutdown and reactivation of UHPLC systems to prevent damage and maintain operational efficiency. • Shutdown: Remove the column and replace it with a union to avoid blockages. Flush the system with a compatible solvent mix, clean mobile phase reservoirs to prevent microbial growth, flush the pump with storage solvent, and clean the autosampler, including the needle and injection port. • Reactivation: Inspect the system for wear or damage, gradually reintroduce mobile phases starting with a weak solvent, reinstall the column securely, and perform system checks on baseline stability, pressure consistency, and detector performance. By adhering to these guidelines, laboratories can ensure the longevity and reliability of their UHPLC systems, maintaining high analytical performance and minimizing downtime. These procedures help prevent common issues such as blockages, contamination, and component wear, thereby supporting efficient and accurate analytical operations.

Tomato fruits(Lycoperisicon esculentum) synthesize the glycoalkaloids dehydrotomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine, possibly as defense against bacteria, fungi and insects. We developed a new effective method to prepare and purify dehydrotomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine that exists in tomato fruits using alumina column chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The tomato glycoalkaloids(TGA) in tomato was extracted with 2% acetic acid, and then precipitated with ammonium hydroxide(pH=10.5). The dry precipitate substance was applied on alumina column, and then fractionated with water saturated n-butylalcohol. The TGA(Fr. No. 26~36) were collected and dried under reduced pressure. The TGA was performed on a reverse phase HPLC(Inertsil ODS-2, $5\;{\mu}m$), eluted with acetonitrile/20mM $KH_2PO_4$(24:76, v/v) at 208 nm. Two peaks were detected on HPLC, and individual peak was collected by repeating HPLC. Furthermore, to confirm the identity dehydrotomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine, each peak isolated was hydrolyzed with 1N HCl into sugar and aglycone tomatidine. The sugars were converted to trimethylsilyl ester derivatives. The nature and molar ratios of sugars were identified by gas-liquid chromatography(GLC) and the aglycone by high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). The first peak (Rt=17.5 min) eluted from HPLC was identified as dehydrotomatine, and second peak(Rt=21.0 min) was as ${\alpha}$-tomatine. This technique has been used effectively to prepare and isolate dehydrotomatine and ${\alpha}$-tomatine from tomato fruits.

Paclitaxel can be produced in high yield and with a high degree of purify from plant cell cultures of Taxus chinensis. The complete purification method was systematically established and described. This method was an efficient procedure for the purification of paclitaxel from crude paclitaxel, consisting or reverse-phase chromatography, followed by a normal-phase chromatography. The two-stage HPLC purification scheme serves as an effective and economical approach for resolving paclitaxel from complex mixtures of taxoids, with high purify (>99%) and low impurities (<0.1%). The process is readily scalable to a pilot plant and eventually to a production environment where multikilogram quantities of material are expected to be produced. The process has been optimized to minimize solvent usage, complexity, and operating costs.

Vitamin B12 deficiency may lead to serious health issues in both infants and adults. A simple analytical method involving sample pretreatment with enzyme, followed by cyanide addition under acidic conditions; separation on an immunoaffinity column; and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed for the rapid detection and quantitation of vitamin B12 in powdered milk. Detection limit and powdered milk recovery were determined by quantitative analysis. The limits of detection and quantitation were 2.71 and 8.21 ㎍/L, respectively. Relative standard deviations of the intra-day and inter-day precisions varied in the ranges of 0.98%-5.31% and 2.16%-3.90%, respectively. Recovery of the analysis varied in the range of 83.41%-106.57%, suggesting that the values were acceptable. Additionally, vitamin B12 content and recovery in SRM 1849a were 54.10 ㎍/kg and 112.24%, respectively. Our results suggested that the analytical method, including the sample pretreatment step, was valid. This analytical method can be implemented in many laboratory-scale experiments that seek to save time and labor. Therefore, this study shows that immunoaffinity-HPLC/ultraviolet is an acceptable technique for constructing a reliable database on vitamin B12 in powdered milk containing starch as well as protein and/or fat in high amounts.
