The present study was undertaken to develop the in vitro sun protection factor(SPF) test method having good correlation with in vivo method using human. 8% homomentyl salicylate, P3 reference standard and commercially available sunscreen products were measured by the in vitro method using SPF 290S analyzer, and the SPFs were compared with the SPFs measured by in vivo test method. In vitro SPFs of 8% HMS and P3 reference standard were 4.59 $\pm$ 0.12 and 14.94 $\pm$ 0.83. There are good correspondence, correlation coefficients were 0.9506 and 0.9769 respectively, between the in vitro and in vivo SPFs for the sunscreen creams and lotions. Correlation coefficients of makeup base/liquid foundation, lotion labled with "shake before use" and compact powder were 0.8812, 0.8632 and 0.5984 respectively. The optimum mixture ratio of compact powder and cream base represents 1:0.8. These results suggest that the in vitro SPF test method will be able to be used as an alternative method for in vivo SPF in case of lotion and cream.

Various release test methods have been applied for the evaluation of nicotine release in vitro from commercial patches. However, whether and how the release data reflect the permeation of nicotine across the skin, is not fully elucidated. To predict in vivo bioavailability from in vitro release tests, correlation between in vitro release and in vitro skin permeation was assessed in the present study. Release of nicotine from three commercial patches was measured for 24 hours under nine experimental conditions which were classified depending on the apparatus (i.e., paddle over disk, cylinder and reciprocating holder) and dissolution media (i.e., phosphate buffer pH 7.4, water and the 1 % phosphoric acid pH 1.5). In vitro permeation of nicotine from the patches across the human cadaver skin was also measured using a diffusion cell. The release of nicotine was better explained by the Higuchi's equation rather than by the first order rate equation. Correlation between the release rate and the in vitro skin permeation differed among the patches. However, in general, the cylinder method, in which water is used as a dissolution medium, showed the highest correlation among the nine release test conditions.

IVIVC (In vitro/in vivo correlation) is useful for predicting in vivo results from in vitro data. The aim of this study was to develop IVIVC of sustained release diltiazem. For this purpose, three types of diltiazem tablets with different in vitro dissolution rates were prepared. An in vitro dissolution testing method comprising of paddle apparatus, 50 rpm, water as dissolution medium was developed. Under these condition, we demonstrated that AUCinf could be predicted by evaluating $d_{70%}$ (time dissolved 70%) in vitro since the in vivo AUCinf was correlated with the in vitro $d_{70%}$ (r=-0.9981).

We have recently developed a novel in vitro SPF evaluation method with a high correlation coefficient (r=0.93) to in vivo SPF values(test sunscreen formulas : cress m, foundation). In this method, the in vitro SPF value was determined by the ratio of the time taken to achieve the minimal erythema dose with and without the sunscreens applied. We also reviewed the dilution and thin-layer methods for in vitro SPF evaluation, and investigated the relationship between irradiance(3$\times$10-3 2.5x 10-5W/cm2) and the degree of erythema. The degree of erythema was similar if t he radiation exposure(40mJ/cm2) was kept constant. It was obtained more than 0.90 correlation coefficient when it was compared the results by our new method with those from SPF-290 analyzer (Optometries, U.S.A.).

Human hepatocytes, with complete hepatic metabolizing enzymes, transporters and cofactors, represent the gold standard for in vitro evaluation of drug metabolism, drug-drug interactions, and hepatotoxicity. Successful cryopreservation of human hepatocytes enables this experimental system to be used routinely. The use of human hepatocytes to evaluate two major adverse drug properties: drug-drug interactions and hepatotoxicity, are summarized in this review. The application of human hepatocytes in metabolism-based drug-drug interaction includes metabolite profiling, pathway identification, P450 inhibition, P450 induction, and uptake and efflux transporter inhibition. The application of human hepatocytes in toxicity evaluation includes in vitro hepatotoxicity and metabolism-based drug toxicity determination. A novel system, the Integrated Discrete Multiple Organ Co-culture (IdMOC) which allows the evaluation of nonhepatic toxicity in the presence of hepatic metabolism, is described.

The combined products of antacid and anti-ulcer agent were prepared with antacid composed of aluminium hydroxide dried gel, magnesium hydroxide and simethicone with a ratio of 1:1:0.1 (M) and anti-ulcer agent, aceglutamide aluminium (AGA). The efficacy of antacid was evaluated in vitro with Fuchs, Johnson-Duncan and Rosset-Rice methods and in vivo using an aspiration method in rat. The addition of anti-ulcer agent did not affect the neutralizing capacity of M significantly. The combined products with the M/AGA ratios of 2.3:1 and 3.4:1 produced the maximum pH of $4.0{\sim}5.8$ and the duration time of $64{\sim}137$ min in vitro test. The in vivo neutralizing test in rats showed the rapid increase of gastric pH up to 3.5 within 30 min and the gastric pH of $4{\sim}6$ was kept for 5 hr.

Tissue engineering has arisen to address the extreme shortage of tissues and organs for transplantation and repair. One of the most successful techniques has been the seeding and culturing cells on three-dimensional biodegradable scaffolds in vitro followed by implantaion in vivo. We used PLA and PLGA as biodegradable polymers and rabbit chondrocytes were isolated and applied to PLA and PLGA to make artificial cartilage. To evaluate the biocompatibility and biological safety of polymers, in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo animal tests were investigated. (omitted)

Successful techniques of in vitro fertilization(IVF) are valuable for studying the process of fertilization and for developing economical procedures for gene and nuclear transfer in farm animals. To date, bovine IVF system has been developed with oocytes in vitro or vitro, but the resulting zygotes exhibit limited embryonic development after in vitro culture. Even though in vitro matured oocytes achieved high fertilization and cleavage rates, these embryos appear extremly low rate of pregnancies when transferred to synchronized recipients. Development of early bovine embryos in vitro is generally arrested at the 8-to 16-cell stage. However, recent use of somatic cells such as trophoblastic vesicle, granulosa and oviduct epithelial cell for co-culture with early bovine embryos has proven effective for development of embryos, matured and fertilized in vitro, past the in vitro cell blocks. These factors clearly indicate the value of the co-culture system in promoting development of bovine oocytes matured and fertilized in vitro to morula or blastocyst stage in vitro. In addition, co-culture system may beome a tool for evaluation of viability of ova that have been manipulated by procedures such as splitting, microinjection and nuclear transfer.
