To perform an effective screening for toxic materials of forensic interest detected in high profile criminal case in biological and environmental samples, we tried to construct a searchable computerized database using HPTLC(High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography) and GC/MS. Retardation factor($R_f$) values and UV spectral data of HPTLC were investigated for 160 pesticides, 34 chemicals and 39 explosives of standard grade. The data were compiled in a library. We also analyzed 112 pesticides, 31 chemicals and 17 explosives and 57 volatile organic compounds(VOCs) by GC/MS. The data for RT and characteristic mass ions were also compiled in a library.

Aronia (Black chokeberry, Aronia melanocarpa) belonging to the Rosaceae family, is native to eastern North America. Aronia contain high levels of flavonoids, mostly anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins, which are known as condensed tannins. The dominant proanthocyanidins in aronia are (-)-epicatechin and (+)-catechin. The concentration of proanthocyanidins in aronia is higher than in other berries, however due to the astringent taste it is not desirable for consumption. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of aronia on the reduction in tannins by yeast isolated from regional Jeotgal. We isolated strains of yeast with high ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity from Jeotgal, with the MTY2 strains exhibiting a reduction in final tannin concentration according to thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis. MTY2 was confirmed as Kazachstania servazzii using an 18S rDNA sequence and named as K. servazzii MTY2. K. servazzii MTY2 showed most significant growth when K. servazzii MTY2 was cultured in a solution of 10% (w/v) glucose, 3% (w/v) tryptone and 0.1% (w/v) sodium chloride. According to the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, the (+) - catechin peak is present, but (-) - epicatechin peak was reduced at culture condition added with 10% glucose in medium.

Objectives : The present study was an evaluation and standardization of herbal components in order to establish the efficacy and safety of Shinbaro pharmacopuncture. Methods : Among the raw materials of Shinbaro pharmacopuncture, the components Cibotii Rhizoma, Eucommiae Cortex, and Ledebouriellae Radix were assessed through ingredient verification experiments using thin-layer chromatography(TLC) and ultraviolet rays(UV) lamps. In addition, we standardized Acanthopanacis Cortex and Achyranthis Radix through validation using high performance liquid chromatograph-diode array detector(HPLC-DAD). Results : As result appeared a blue-white fluorescence under ultraviolet rays; changed to dark green after adding 1 % ferric chloride solution(due to Cibotii Rhizoma), and presented a yellow-green fluorescence when mixed with an ethyl ether under UV lamps by way of the ethyl ether layer, confirming Eucommiae Cortex. Ledebouriellae Radix was confirmed as dark brown spots at Rf values of 0.56 and 0.71 using TLC. Additionally, Acanthopanacis Cortex and Achyranthis Radix HPLC test results showed that linearity was $R^2{\geq}0.99$, and detection limit and quantitation limit were 0.23 to $1.29{\mu}g/mL$, and 0.71 to $3.90{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Furthermore, precision and accuracy were confirmed to have relative standard deviation(RSD) values of 0.10 to 1.89 % and 96.19 to 103.72 %, respectively. Shinbaro pharmacopuncture did not have any overlapping or interference from other peaks in detection under the abovementioned analysis conditions. Conclusions : In conclusion, we confirmed that maintenance of Shinbaro pharmacopuncture validity was possible by means of quality control of Cibotii Rhizoma, Eucommiae Cortex, and Ledebouriellae Radix through ingredient identification and Acanthopanacis Cortex and Achyranthis Radix through high performance liquid chromatograph(HPLC) analysis. Further, we hope to contribute to the development strategy of herbal industry acupuncture.

The triglyceride composition of perilla oil was investigated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combination with gas liquid chromatography (GLC). The triglycerides were separated from perilla oil by thin layer chromatography (TLC), and fractionated into five groups on the basis of their partition numbers by reverse phase HPLC on a column packed with ${\mu}-Bondapak\;C_{18}$ using methanol-chloroform mixture as a solvent. Each of these collected fractions gave one to three peaks in the GLC chromatograms according to the acyl carbon number of the triglyceride, and fatty acid composition of the triglyceride was also analyzed by GLC. The results indicate that the perilla oil consists of fifteen kinds of triglycerides, and the major triglycerides in perilla oil were as follows: 68.0% of $(C_{18:3},\;C_{18:3},\;C_{18:3})$, 6.7% of $(C_{18:2},\;C_{18:3},\;C_{18:3})$, 5.9% of $(C_{18:1},\;C_{18:3},\;C_{18:3})$, 4.3% of $(C_{16:0},\;C_{18:3},\;C_{18:3})$, 3.8% of $(C_{18:1},\;C_{18:2},\;C_{18:3})$, 3.2% of $(C_{18:1},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:3})$, 2.0% of $(C_{16:0},\;C_{18:2},\;C_{18:3})$, 1.5% of ($C_{18:2},\;C_{18:2},\;C_{18:3})$, 1.0% of $(C_{16:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{18:3})$.

Triglyceride fraction was separated from olive oil by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and fractionated into four groups by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Compositions of the triglycerides and fatty acids of four fractions were determined by gas liquid chromatography (GLC). The olive oil contained higher concentrations of C-52 and C-54 triglycerides having partition numbers of 48. The fatty acid compositions of these triglycerides were mainly composed of C18:1 and C18:2 fatty acids. From these results, the possible fatty acid combinations of major triglycerides of olive oil were estimated to be(3C18:1;50.6%), (1C16:0, 2C18:1;23.51%), (2C18:1, 1C18:2;5.48%), (1C18:0, 2 18:1;4.55%), (1C16:0, 1C18:1, 1C18:2;2.94%), (2C16:0, 1C18:1;2.35%), (1 C16:1, 2 C18:1;2.21%), (1C18:1, 2C18:2;1.06%), (1 C14:0, 2 C18:1;1.03%).

An easily available, simultaneous identification/determination procedure for sildenafil, homosildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil in adulterated health related foods was established by using a combination of three different analytical methods; thin layer chromatography(TLC), liquied chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and high-performance liquied chromatography (HPLC)/photo-diode-array detector. The sample solution for TLC was applied to silica gel 60 $F_{254}$ plates with ethylacetate/acetonitrile/25%ammonia (90:10:5) as a developing solvent. Spots were located under UV radiation at 254 nm and dragendolfs reagent. Mass spectra of the compounds by LC/MS were investigated with electrospray ionization (ESI) interface, under positive ion mode. The HPLC analysis was performed on a column of capcell pack $C_{18}$ (UG120, 4.6${\times}$250mm I.D. 5 ${\mu}$m)with 0.1% sodium 1-hexansulfonate (in 0.1% phosphoric acid)/acetnitrile (73:27) as a mobile phase, and effluent was minitored with a photo-diode-applied to commercial foods, Sildenafil content was inthe range of 0.4mg/g~360.9 mg/g from 7 out of 35 samples. Homosildenafil content was in the range of 2.2 mg/g~336.0 mg/g from 7 out of 35 samples. Tadalafil content was 429.3 mg/g, 9.6 mg/500 mg from 2 out of 35 samples. The procedure described here is available for the screening of sildenafil, homosildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil.

Ten specimens of the imported pufferfish, fugu flavidus ('Sarnchaebog'), from China were assayed for anatomical distribution of toxicity, Also, a toxic ovary of each specimen was excised, and transferred into Bio-gel P-2 column chromatography for purification of the toxins. The average toxicity of all specimens assayed was calculated to be $4.1\pm 0.5\;in\;liver,\;2.8\pm1.1\;intestine,\;0.8\pm0.5\;skin,\;2.3\pm1.5\;testis\;39.0\pm16.0\;ovary\;and\;7.0\pm2.0 MU/g$ bile, respectively; Ovary was weakly toxic, but others were non-toxic or weakly toxic. Moreover, instrumental analyses including thin layer chromatography(TLC) and electrophoresis disclosed tetrodotoxin (TTX) and anhydro tetrodotoxin (anh-TTX), respectively. The toxins of the ovary gave four peaks in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) whose retention times (14 and 24 min) were close to those of TTX and anh-TTX, respectively.

To investigate the production of $C_{21}$-steroids during the spawning period of spotted sea bass, Lateolabrax maculatus, we have incubated maturing and ovulating follicles with radiolabeled pregnenolone and $17\alpha$-hydroxyprogesterone for 24 hours. The resulting metabolites were analyzed by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), When maturing follicles ($700\sim800{\mu}m$ in diameters) were incubated with radiolabeled precursors, $C_{21}$-metabolites were corticosteroids and $17\alpha$-hydroxy, $20\beta$-dihydroprogesterone ($17\alpha20\beta OHP$). When ovulation follicles ($1,000\sim1,150{\mu}m$ in diameters) were incubated with radiolabeled precursors, the major $C_{21}$-metabolites were $17\alpha20\beta OHP$, $17\alpha$,$20\beta$, 21-trihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one ($17\alpha20\beta21P$), and corticosterone. Additional chromatography by TLC and HPLC confirmed the presence of radioactive $17\alpha20\beta OHP$ in the maturing follicles, and $17\alpha20\beta OHP$,$17\alpha20\beta21P$ and corticosterone in ovulating follicles. Although $17\alpha20\beta OHP$ was found in a small peak, the synthesis of this steroid suggests that it may play a role in regulating the oocyte maturation process. Whereas ovulation is regulated by both $17\alpha20\beta OHP$ and $17\alpha20\beta21P$ in the spotted sea bass. In addition, an unusual finding was the biosynthesis of corticosterone. Whether this production is responsible for the ovulation, and is an area requiring continued research.
