  • Background: Furosine (${\varepsilon}$-N-2-furoylmethyl-L-lysine, FML) is an amino acid derivative, which is considered to be an important indicator of the extent of damage (deteriorating the quality of amino acid and proteins due to a blockage of lysine and a decrease in the digestibility of proteins) during the early stages of the Maillard reaction. In addition, FML has been proven to be harmful because it is closely related to a variety of diseases such as diabetes. The qualitative analysis of FML in fresh and processed ginsengs was confirmed using HPLC-MS. Methods: An ion-pair reversed-phase LC method was used for the quantitative analysis of FML in various ginseng samples. Results: The contents of FML in the ginseng samples were 3.35-42.28 g/kg protein. The lowest value was observed in the freshly collected ginseng samples, and the highest value was found in the black ginseng concentrate. Heat treatment and honey addition significantly increased the FML content from 3.35 g/kg protein to 42.28 g/kg protein. Conclusion: These results indicate that FML is a promising indicator to estimate the heat treatment degree and honey addition level during the manufacture of ginseng products. The FML content is also an important parameter to identity the quality of ginseng products. In addition, the generation and regulation of potentially harmful Maillard reaction products-FML in ginseng processing was also investigated, providing a solid theoretical foundation and valuable reference for safe ginseng processing.

  • In result of analysis for the content determination of ursolic acid(UA) and oleanolic acid(OA) in extract of Eriobotryae folium using HPLC with UV detector, UA in chloroform extract of Moo-mok variety was showed highest content(2.7843 mg/g). And OA in ethyl acetate extract of Dae-bang variety was showed highest content(0.5898 mg/g). These result suggest that direct extraction using organic solvent(chloroform or ethyl acetate) was useful method for rapid quantitative analysis of UA and OA without preprocessing such as drying or fractionation.

  • For quantitative evaluation of wooden structures, the mechanical performance of members has undergone outdoor exposure tests. A year-long monitoring was conducted using an SPF species. Test groups were divided into twelve (each month) to measure the moisture content, density and ultimate load. Starting from May when moisture content of the test group was at the lowest, simple failure modes were observed more frequently during the first half of the experiment, whereas complex failure modes took over during the second half. Starting from June when moisture content of the test group was the highest, ultimate load decreased by 30% in the second half compared to the first half. A multiple regression analysis confirmed that moisture content of the test group was the variable with most effect on ultimate load of various outdoor variables, and an estimation equation of a simple regression analysis revealed that moisture content and ultimate load formed an inversely proportionate relationship. It is thought that correlational relationships of variables other than moisture content could be applied with the increase in added data amount by longer periods of outdoor exposure tests.

  • It will be possible to prevent the infringement of the trademarks and the insueing disputes regarding the originality of the trademarks by using an efficient content-based trademark image retrieval system. In this paper, we describe a content-based image retrieval system using the Self Organizing Map(SOM) algorithm. The SOM algorithm utilizes the visual features, which were derived from the gray histogram representation of the images. In addition, we made the objective effectiveness evaluation possible by coming up with a quantitative measure to gauge the effectiveness of the content-based image retrieval system.

  • Objectives : To compare limonene, menthone and pulegone content from different part of Schizonepeta tenuifolia Briquet. Methods : The quantitative content of essential oil was determined according to the method of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. GC analysis of essential oil was carried out using a flame ionization detector. The results obtained were confirmed by GC/MS. Results : The content of essential was high on the leaf part. The content of menthone was higher than other ingredients. When compare the content observed by harvesting time, the highest pick was shown on middle of August. Conclusion : This research can be used to modify or feedbackthe article in the Korean Pharmacopoeia.

  • Dehydrocorydaline was isolated from the roots of Corydalis ternata (Papaveraceae) and identified by the comparison the $^1H-$ and $^{13}C$-NMR spectral data with those of authentic sample. The content of dehydrocorydaline was determined by the HPLC analysis based on extraction of ground plant material. Quantitative analysis of dehydrocorydaline in MeOH extract of C. ternata by HPLC showed $1.31{\pm}0.95%$ in 20 samples collected throughout regions of Korea.

  • Radial immunodiffusion, rocket immunoelectrophoresis, and Boyden procedure have been employed as quantitative analysis of pollen proteins in a systematic investigation of selected amentiferous plant taxa. Data presented here are continued and supplementary to the previous qualitative analysis of immunoprecipitin systems for the same purpose. Although the number of taxa tested has been limited, the serological evidence indicates that the Betulaceae has the greatest similarity to the Fagaceae, next to the Juglandaceae, the least to the Salicaceae, when antisera against Alnus hirsuta and Betula platyphylla var. japonica were used for tests. Within the Betulaceae Alnus and Betula show greatly similar affinities together, but less similar to the rest of genera: Carpinus, Carya and Corylus. When antisera against Quercus aliena, Q. dentata, and Q. glauca were used for tests, the following decreasing order to serological affinities was obtained: Quercus Alnus, Betula Carpinus, Carya, Corylus Juglans, Pterocarya Populus. Overall serological data come closer to supportint the classification systems of Cronquist, Takhtajan, and Hutchinson; but less of Thorne and Bessey. In addition this investigation indicated that pollen, with its high protein content, provided an excellent source of extractable antigens for serosystematic researches.

  • The study for the quantitative analysis of saikosaponin of Bupleurum falcatum root produced by tissue culture was attempted. The optimal concentration of 2,4-D was 0.1 mg/l for inducing the callus. The induction and growth of the adventitious root from the callus was obtained in the suspension culture containing MS basal medium supplemented with no plant growth regulators. The results of the quantitative analysis of saikosaponins by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) showed that the content of saikosaponin a and c was high in the one-year-old root from somatic embryos and that of saikosaponin d was remarkably high in three-months-old adventitious root from callus.

  • Three wavelength spectrophotometry was used to determine the content of eugenol in Eugenia Caryophyllata Thunb. Using this method could effectively eliminate the deviation of background absorption caused by the change of concentration and the error of quantitative analysis caused by asymmetric peaks, and at the same time the leaning degree of base line was corrected. This method was simple the recovery ratio was 90.05%-116.94% and the coefficient of variation was 3.5%.

  • This analysis of trends in research on children's temperament published in Korean journals during the 25years dating from 1980 consisted of articles from 10 reliable journals related to child studies and analyzed for research frequency, contents, and methodology. Results showed that 51 research articles on children's temperament were published during this period, most of them in child studies and early childhood education/educare journals. The main content of research was the role of temperament in development. Most of the studies used methods categorized as quantitative and non-experimental; subjects were more than 100 children younger than school age with their mothers as adult subjects. Instruments validated in Korea and based on the individual approach and quantitative data analysis methods were used frequently.
