Trace lead detection for cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square-wave (SW) stripping voltammetry was performed using mercury immobilized onto a carbon nanotube electrode (HNPE). Using the characteristics of mercury and the catalytic carbon nanotube structure, a modified technique, the $0.45{\mu}g/l$ detection limit of lead ion was attained. The developed method can be applied to pond water, fish tissue, plant tissue, and in vivo direct assay.

A few in vitro methods were developed to compare the result on the phototoxicity of phenothiazines. By the MTT assay, the Candida test, and the RBC photohemolysis, the phototoxicities of UVA and UVB irradiation were measured. This paper presents the comparisons of methods which are effective to measure the phototoxicities of the chemicals causing phototoxicity and photoallergy. The tested chemicals of phenothiazines include Chlorpromazine, Promethazine, Perphenazine, Chlorprothixene, Trifluoperazine and Thioridazine. Each chemical represented variable results according to the test methods. MTT assay shows the most sensitive method.

The relative activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in E. coli was measured at 340 $m\mu$ with a spectrophotometer. The synchronized E. coli cells in exponential phase were treated with Phage($T_2$) ghost, and used as a enzyme solution directly. This assay method supposed to be useful for the continuous determination of enzyme activity in E. coli.

A series of new direct dyes based on benzidine congeners, 2,2'-dimethyl-5,5'-dipropoxybenzidine and 5,5'-dipropoxybenzidine, were evaluated for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100. All of the dyes examined were judged to be non-mutagenic with and without metabolic activation while toxicity was seen in some dyes at high doses. The study also suggested that the standard Salmonella mutagenicity plate-incorporated assay was an excellent method for evaluation of direct dyes for mutagenicity.

Objectives : To ensure the safety, quality and pharmacological efficacy of Batryticatus Bombyx, it is important to discriminate with adulterants. In Korean Herbal Pharmacopoeias (KHP), the authentic species of Batryticatus Bombyx is defined only Bombyx mori. Therefore, the aim of this study is establishment of PCR assay method using the sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker based on COI DNA barcode for discriminating six species related to Batryticatus Bombyx. Methods : Seventeen samples of six species (Bombyx mori, Bombyx mandarina, Rhodinia fugax, Oberthueria caeca, Actias artemis, and Caligula japponica) were collected from different habitate and nucleotide sequences of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I(COI) barcode regions were analyzed by Sanger sequencing methods. To develop SCAR-based PCR assay method, we designed species-specific primers based on COI sequence variabilities and verified those specificities using 17 samples of six species as well as commercial herbal medicines. Results : In comparative multiple analysis of COI sequences, six species were distinguished by species-specific nucleotides at the species level. To develop rapid and reliable PCR assay method for genetic authentication of Batryticatus Bombyx, therefore, we designed species-specific SCAR primers based on these nucleotide sequences and confirmed those specificities. Using these SCAR primers, We also established simple conventional PCR assay method using these SCAR primers at the species level. Conclusions : The comparative analysis of COI sequences and SCAR-based PCR assay methods represented equal results for distinguishing authentic Batryticatus Bombyx and adulterations at the species level. Therefore, our results are expected protecting adulteration of herbal medicine Batryticatus Bombyx.

콩 균핵마름병을 일으키는 Macrophomina phaseolina의 병원성 평가를 위하여 실험실과 온실 검정법을 확립하였다. 실험실 검정에서는 소립균핵과 균사를 접종원으로 사용하였다. 소립균핵을 접종원으로 사용한 실험실 검정에서 M. phaseolina NSW17-108과 HSM17-034의 발병도는 25℃보다 35℃에서 더 높았다. NSW17-108과 HSM17-034 중에서 참깨에서 분리된 HSM17-034의 발병도가 콩에서 분리된 NSW17-108보다 높았다. M. phaseolina의 균사를 접종원으로 사용한 경우, NSW17-108과 HSM17-034는 35℃에서의 발병도가 접종 5일 만에 80%를 상회하였다. HSM17-034는 25℃에서의 발병도가 접종 5일 후에 80%를 상회하였다. 온실의 병원성 검정에는 소립균핵이 형성된 이쑤시개 또는 potato dextrose agar 배지에서 수확한 소립균핵 자체를 접종원으로 사용하였다. 모든 온실 검정에서 M. phaseolina NSW17-10과 HSM17-034는 접종 방법에 따라 병원균을 접종하고 35-65일 후에 40-60%의 발병도를 보였다. 두 균주 중에서 HSM17-034의 병원성이 NSW17-108보다 강했으며, 이 결과는 실험실 검정 결과와 일치하였다. 본 연구에서 확립한 실험실 및 온실 검정법은 각 방법에 따라 장단점이 있기 때문에, 연구의 목적에 부합할 수 있는 시험법을 선택하여 사용하는 것이 필요하다.

The radioimmunoassay of human thyrtropin was performed in various thyroid diseases, using the antin-h-TSH antibody (Daiichi, Japan) and purified h-TSH(Biodata, Italy). $^{125}I$ labelling of h-TSH was performed using a small amount $(1.8{\mu}g)$ of chloramin-T as an oxidant at room temperature. This new method facilitated uniform labelling and reduced to damage of h-TSH by chloramin-T, and satisfactory radioimmunoasasy results were obtained with $^{125}I-TSH$ prepared by the new method until at least 7 weeks after preparation, The assay sensitivity was $1.0{\mu}u/ml$. The coefficient of variances in within assay and interrun assay were all less than 10% among the range of $1.25{\mu}u/ml$ and $160{\mu}u/ml$. The serum TSH values by this new method were colsely related to those by commercial kit (r= 0.996).
