The objective of this study is to investigate the pharamacokinetic parameters of decursinol following oral administration in Sprague-Dawley rats. The plasma concentration of decursinol was determined by LC/MS with APCI positive mode. The m/z value of decursinol was observed at 247. Following oral administration of decursinol extract, the apparent clearance was $5.3{\pm}2.7\;ml/hr/rat$, the absorption half life was $2.5{\pm}0.41\;hr$, the elimination half life was $3.05{\pm}1.57\;hr$, and the apparent volume of distribution was $21{\pm}12\;ml/rat$. The LC/MS method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of decursinol.

nitrophenol류는 미국 환경청에서 주요 priority 오염물질로 규정하고 있다. 물 중에 존재하는 nitrophenol류의 혼합물을 분석하기 위해 역상 액체크로마토그래피법에 대기압 화학이온화법을 연결한 질량분석기를 이용하였다. 추가적으로, 선택이온 검색법과 cone 전압차분해법(cone voltage fragmentation)을 이용하여 nitrophenol류의 확인에 있어서 감도와 선택성을 높였다. nitrophenol의 분해 형태는 충돌유발분해법인 MS/MS 기법으로 얻어진 분해 형태와 비교하였다.

In the present study, the approach of high accuracy mass measurements for phospholipid identifications was evaluated using a 7 T ESI-FTMS/linear ion trap MS/MS. Experiments were carried out for porcine brain, bovine liver, and soybean total lipid extracts in both positive and negative ion modes. In total, 59, 55, and 18 phospholipid species were characterized in the positive ion mode for porcine brain, bovine liver, and soybean lipid extracts, respectively. Assigned lipid classes were PC, PE, PEt, PS, and SM. In the negative ion mode, PG, PS, PA, PE, and PI classes were observed. In the negative ion mode, for porcine brain, bovine liver, and soybean lipid extracts, 28, 34, and 29 species were characterized, respectively. Comparison of our results with those obtained by other groups using derivatization-LC-APCI MS and nano-RP-LC-MS/MS showed that our approach can characterize PC species as effectively as those methods could. In conclusion, we demonstrated that high accuracy mass measurements of total lipid extracts using a high resolution FTMS, particularly, 7T FTMS, plus ion-trap MS/MS are very useful in profiling lipid compositions in biological samples.

Zidovudine is an antiretroviral agent prescribed for the prevention and treatment of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS). It is typically recommended to be used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. Zidovudine has the potential to generate N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in the presence of dimethylamine and nitrite salt under acidic reaction conditions during the drug manufacturing process. NDMA is a potent human carcinogen that may be detected in drug substances or drug products. An analytical method was developed to determine NDMA in pharmaceuticals including zidovudine using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The analysis involved reversed-phase chromatography on a Kinetex F5 column with a mobile phase comprising water-acetonitrile mixtures. The detection of positively charged ions was conducted using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI). The calibration curve demonstrated excellent linearity (r = 0.9997) across the range of 1-50 ng/mL with a highly sensitive limit of detection (LOD) at 0.3 ng/mL. The developed method underwent thorough validation for specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, robustness, and system suitability. This sensitive and specific analytical method was applied for detecting NDMA in zidovudine drug substance and its formulation currently available in the market, indicating its suitability for drug quality management purposes.

Glucosinolate (GSL) contents were investigated (i) at 1~7 days after sowing (DAS) in seed sprouts and (ii) at 3-7 weeks after sowing for the time-course. Moreover, (iii) They were compared with five different cultivars of rocket salad (Eruca sativa). Seventeen GSLs were separated by HPLC analysis, and 10 GSLs among them were identified as glucoraphanin, sinigrin, glucoalyssin, diglucothiobeinin, glucobrassicanapin, glucoerucin, glucobrassicin, dimeric, 4-mercaptobutyl GSL, 4-methoxy glucobrassicin, gluconasturttin by using LC-APCI-MS analysis, but 7 compounds were not identified. (i) The total GSL content in seed sprouts initially increased up to 3 DAS and then decreased according to their seedling growth. In particular, glucoraphanin known as a strong anti-cancer reagent was found the highest level (5.05 ${\mu}mol/g$ dry wt.) at 3 DAS. The most abundant GSL was glucoerucin ranged from 26.0~49.6 ${\mu}mol/g$ dry wt. (ii) In the time-course, the total GSL contents increased dramatically from 3-week (5.91 ${\mu}mol/g$ dry wt.) to 7-week after sowing (32.2 ${\mu}mol/g$ dry wt.). The major GSLs were glucoraphanin, glucoerucin and 4-methoxy glucobrassicin. (iii) By comparing GSL contents with five different cultivars, the total GSL contents increased from 4-week to 6-week after sowing, regardless of cultivar. In 4-week-old, the order with the total GSL content was "Rucola" > "Rocket Herbs" ${\geqq}$ "Odyssey" > "Takii" > "Herb", but in 6-week-old it is changed as "Takii" > "Herb" > "Odyssey" > "Rucola" > "Rocket Herbs" even there was almost no significantly difference between them.

본 연구는 과실류에 잔류하는 ETU 분석을 위해 LC/APCI-MS를 이용하여 신속 정확한 분석법 검증을 실시하였다. 시료 중 존재하는 ETU 성분 추출로 사용된 용매는 $CH_2Cl_2$이며, 시료 전처리 시 cys-HCl 0.4 g, $Na_2CO_34g$을 사용할 때 최적의 회수율을 나타냈다. 분석 시 $C_{18}$ column으로 분리되어 나온 ETU의 머무름 시간대에서 어떠한 간섭현상도 보이지 않았으며 232 nm에서 최고의 흡수파장을 보였다. 귤 시료에 ETU를 첨가한 결과값의 직선성은 적합한 것으로 나타났다($R^2$=1). 정밀성과 정확성은 0.05-1.0 mg/kg에서 RSD$\leq$10%이며, 회수율은 평균 80% 이상의 결과를 보였다. 배, 포도, 바나나의 회수율도 마찬가지로 80% 이상으로 나타났다. 본 실험방법으로 시중에 유통중인 과실류를 구입하여 모니터링을 한 결과 ETU는 오렌지 과피에서 4건이 검출되었고 최고 잔류치는 $73.6{\mu}g/kg$ 이었다. 귤 과피는 3건 검출 되었고 최고 잔류치는 $29.8{\mu}g/kg$이었다. 본 연구의 과실류에 잔류하는 ETU 분석법은 시료 전처리에 필요한 시간을 줄일 수 있으며 전처리 단계를 간소화함으로써 오염도를 줄였다. 기존에 발표된 논문에 비해 전처리 시간은 약 20분 정도 소요되며, 분석 시 재현성, 정밀성 등을 고려할 때 과실류에 존재하는 ETU 분석법에 적합한 것으로 사료된다.
