영국약전(BP 2013), 미국약전(USP 39) 그리고 대한민국약전 (KP XI)에 디오스민 원료의 정량법으로 HPLC법이 수재되어 있다. 그러나 위의 외국약전들에는 디오스민 제제의 정량법이 수재되어 있지 않으며 대한민국약전 (KP XI)에는 디오스민 캡슐의 정량법으로 HPLC법보다 덜 특이적인 자외가시부흡 광도측정법이 수재되어 있다. 이 실험에서는 최근의 추세에 따라 원료의 정량법과 같고 특이성이 좋은 HPLC 분석법으로 디오스민 캡슐의 정량법을 개발하였고 이를 검증하였다. HPLC분석법의 검증을 위해 직선성, 정밀성, 정확성, 시스템 적합성, 실험실내 정밀성과 완건성 실험을 실행하였다. 직선성은 결정계수($r^2$)가 0.999 이상으로 우수하였다. 일내 정밀도는 상대표준편차 0.15~0.29%, 일간 정밀도는 1.05~1.74%로, 회수율은 101.2~103.2%로 나타났다. 시스템적합성에서는 머무름시간 상대표준편차(RSD %) 0.37 %, 피크면적 상대표준편차(RSD%) 0.06%, 이론단수 평균값 3591.293 그리고 비대칭계수 평균값 1.35을 나타내었다. 개발한 시험법을 이용하여 시중 유통 중인 디오스민 캡슐 중 디오스민의 함량측정에 응용하였다. 개발된 시험법은 대한민국약전의 개정에 기여할 것이다.

Formaldehyde responsive protein1(FRP1)은 175개의 아미노산으로 이루어진 universal stress protein(USP) family이며 대표적인 대기오염물질인 포름알데히드에 반응하는 단백질로 보고된 바 있다. 하지만 FRP1의 기능에 관해서는 전혀 밝혀진 바가 없다. 본 연구에서는 FRP1의 대기오염관련 기능연구를 위하여 FRP1 유전자에 T-DNA가 삽입된 돌연변이체를 분리하여 휘발성 유기화합물에 대한 반응성 및 세포활성변화 등을 분석하였다. 총 4개의 T-DNA 삽입 돌연변이 개체를 분석한 결과 3'UTR에 pROK2 vector가 삽입된 frp1-4 라인을 분리하였으며, frp1-4에서의 FRP1 유전자의 발현을 전사수준에서 분석한 결과 분리한 frp1-4은 FRP1 기능파괴 돌연변이체임을 알 수 있었다. FRP1의 전사가 억제됨에 따라 frp1-4($29.1{\pm}2.55$ cm)은 대조구($33.75{\pm}1.55$ cm)에 비해 키가 약간 작고 rosette leaves의 크기가 줄어드는 등 전체적으로 생장과 발달이 저해되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 대조구와 frp1-4의 휘발성 유기화합물에 대한 반응성 및 세포활성 변화를 분석한 결과, 대조구는 포름알데히드 처리에 의한 엽록소 함량 저하가 7.5% 임에 반해 frp1-4은 35%에 이르러 포름알데히드에 의한 엽록소의 파괴현상이 FRP1의 기능파괴체에서 더 심각하게 발생하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 대조구에 비해 frp1-4에서 포름알데히드 처리에 의한 세포활성의 감소가 대조구에 비해 더 현저하게 나타나는 것을 세포수준에서 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러므로 FRP1은 식물의 발달과 생장에 영향을 끼칠 뿐만 아니라 대기오염물질에 대한 스트레스 저항성에도 관여하는 단백질임을 알 수 있었다.

Type I Interferons (IFNα) are known for their role as biological anticancer agents owing to their cell-apoptosis inducing properties. Development of an appropriate, cost-effective host expression system is crucial for meeting the increasing demand for proteins. Therefore, this study aims to develop codon-optimized IFNα-2b in L. lactis NZ3900. These cells express extracellular protein using the NICE system and Usp₄₅ signal peptide. To validate the mature form of the expressed protein, the recombinant IFNα-2b was screened in a human colorectal cancer cell line using the cytotoxicity assay. The IFNα-2b was successfully cloned into the pNZ8148 vector, thereby generating recombinant L. lactis pNZ8148-SP_Usp45-IFNα-2b. The computational analysis of codon-optimized IFNα-2b revealed no mutation and amino acid changes; additionally, the codon-optimized IFNα-2b showed 100% similarity with native human IFNα-2b, in the BLAST analysis. The partial size exclusion chromatography (SEC) of extracellular protein yielded a 19 kDa protein, which was further confirmed by its positive binding to anti-IFNα-2b in the western blot analysis. The crude protein and SEC-purified partial fraction showed IC₅₀ values of 33.22 ㎍/ml and 127.2 ㎍/ml, respectively, which indicated better activity than the metabolites of L. lactis NZ3900 (231.8 ㎍/ml). These values were also comparable with those of the regular anticancer drug tamoxifen (105.5 ㎍/ml). These results demonstrated L. lactis as a promising host system that functions by utilizing the pNZ8148 NICE system. Meanwhile, codon-optimized usage of the inserted gene increased the optimal protein expression levels, which could be beneficial for its large-scale production. Taken together, the recombinant L. lactis IFNα-2b is a potential alternative treatment for colorectal cancer. Furthermore, its activity was analyzed in the WiDr cell line, to assess its colorectal anticancer activities in vivo.

Two HPLC methods such as cefadroxil and cefalexin methods were compared in their performance for the quantitative analysis of the content and purity of $\beta$ -lactamic antibiotic, cefradine, for six bulk drug samples. Between the two methods, the cefadroxil method prescribed by the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) for the determination of impurities in cefradoxil was superior to the cefalexin method prescribed by the EP and by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) for the determination of cefalexin impurity in cefradine in terms of the greater stability of the chromatogram baselines and the higher precision, i.e., the lower % relative standard deviation (RSD). Based on the comparison of the two HPLC methods, the cefadroxil method was recommended to replace the TLC method, which has been prescribed by the EP as the official method for determination of extraneous impurities in cefradine.

${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) on $SiO_{2}$ coated Si wafers using iron acetylacetonate as an iron precursor. The crystallographic properties and surface morphologies of the films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was carried out to determine the Fe oxidation states. In order to observe stability of the films to temperature, the resistance variation of the films with an ambient temperature was measured. The effects of substrate temperature on the structural and electrical properties of the ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films were studied. The films were densified from the substrate temperature of $350^{\circ}C$. The grain size of the films grown at $400^{\circ}C$ was shown to be increased abruptly comparing with that of $350^{\circ}C$. The films showed a low resistance variation between the ambient temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ and $350^{\circ}C$.

The aim of this work was to prepare porous osmotic pump tablets for controlled delivery of Aceclofenac. Aceclofenac solid dispersion was prepared to improve the solubility by using the drug - carrier (Mannitol) ratio of 1:1. The osmotic pump tablets were prepared using the solid dispersed product of Aceclofenac. The formulation contains potassium chloride as osmotic agent, cellulose acetate as semipermeable membrane, poly ethylene glycol (PEG 4000) as pore former and sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) as solubility enhancer. The formulations were designed by the general factors such as osmotic agent and pore former. All formulations were evaluated for various physical parameters and, the in vitro release studies were conducted as per USP. The drug release kinetic studies such as zero order, first order, and Higuchi and Korsmeyer peppas were determined and compared. All the formulations gave more controlled release compared to the marketed tablet studied. Numerical optimization techniques were applied to found out the best formulation by considering the parameter of in vitro drug release kinetics and dissolution profile standards. It was concluded that the porous osmotic pump tablets (F7) composed of Aceclofenac solid dispersion/Potassium chloride/Lactose/Sodium lauryl sulphate/Magnesium Stearate (400/40/95/10/5, mg/tab) and coating composition with Cellulose acetate/ PEG 4000 (60/40 %w/w) is the most satisfactory formulation. The porous osmotic pump tablets provide prolonged, controlled, and gastrointestinal environment-independent drug release.

In all the Rapid Prototyping (RP) techniques, the computer-aided design (CAD) model of a three-dimensional part is sliced into horizontal layers of uniform, but not necessarily constant, thickness in the building direction. Each cross- sectional layer is successively deposited and, at the same time, bonded onto the previous layer. The stacked layers form a physical part of the model. The objective of this study is to develop a software for automatic generation of unit shape part(USP) for a new RP process, Variable Lamination Manufacturing using the linear hotwire cutting technique and expandable polystyrene foam sheet as part material(VLM-S). In order to examine the applicability of the developed software to VLM-S, USPs of general three-dimensional shapes, such as an auto-shift lever knob and a pyramid shape were generated.

In order to evaluate the effect of poloxamer 407 content on the dissolution profiles of pellets, diltiazem HCl (DTL) core pellets were prepared with poloxamer 407 (50-90% w/w, with lactose as filler) using an extruder and a spheronizer. Any possible interaction between the drug and excipients was evaluated using DSC, IR and TLC. Dissolution tests were performed using USP basket method. In addition, scanning electron micrograph was performed to examine the surface roughness and cross sections. The release of DTL from the core pellets was decreased with increasing poloxamer 407 content. Cracks appeared on the surface of the core pellets with increasing the poloxamer 407 content, which may play a role on the retardation of the release of DTL from core pellets. There was no any significant interaction between the drug and excipients employed to prepare the core pellets.
