The single-vessel multienzyme UDP-${\alpha}$-$\text\tiny{D}$-glucose recycling system was coupled with a forward glucosylation reaction to produce novel glucose moiety-conjugated derivatives of different tetracycline antibiotic analogs. Among five tetracycline analogs used for the reaction, four molecules (chlorotetracycline, doxytetracycline, meclotetracycline, and minotetracycline) were accepted by a glycosyltransferase enzyme, YjiC, from Bacillus licheniformis to produce glucoside derivatives. However, the enzyme was unable to conjugate sugar units to rolitetracycline. All glucosides of tetracycline derivatives were characterized by ultraviolet absorbance maxima, ultra-pressure liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array, and high-resolution quadruple time-of-flight electrospray mass spectrometry analyses. These synthesized glucosides are novel tetracycline derivatives.

2-Methylaminoethyl-4, 4'-dimethoxy-5, 5', 6.6 -dimethylenedioxybiphenyl-2'-carboxy-2-carboxylate (DDB-S), a synthetic compound derived from DDB, has been known to protect liver against carbon tetrachloride-, D-galactosamine-, thioacetamide-, and prednisolone-induced hepatic injury in experimental animals. The metabolism of this compound has been assessed in rats by using liquid chromatography/electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) method. (omitted)

본 논문에서는 LC/MS 데이터로부터 동위 원소 패턴(isotope pattern)을 찾는 새로운 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 기존의 분석 방법에서는 LC/MS 데이터를 1차원적으로 분석하고 있기 때문에 2차원에서 적용할 수 있는 알고리즘을 적용하기가 어렵다. LC/MS 데이터를 2차원 영상으로 가시화해 본 결과, 하나의 동위 원소 패턴에 속하는 단일 동위 원소 피크(single isotope peak)는 모양, 크기와 같은 2차원 형태적 특징들도 유사함을 알 수 있다. 따라서, 기존의 방법들이 질량 스펙트럼과 같은 1차원 신호를 분석하는 것에 중점을 둔 것에 비해, 본 논문에서는 LC/MS 데이터를 2차원 신호 즉, 영상(image)으로 간주하고 영상 처리 방법과 객체 인식 방법을 적용하였다. 실험 결과 같은 동위 원소 패턴에 속하는 각각의 단일 동위원소 피크들 사이에 peak maxima position 뿐만 아니라 skewness, variance등도 유사였으며 이러한 유사도를 기반으로 동위 원소 패턴을 찾을 수 있었다.

Selection of specific medicinal sources as well as bioactive compounds is important for the preparation of medicine and related products with good quality. It is necessary to pay close attention for choosing correct medicinal sources, particularly in case of medicinal plants, because of their diversity, which can affect the quality and efficacy of medicine. Discrimination of plants based on morphological or genetic characteristics has been used as a conventional classification method of pharmaceutical sources so far; however, more need demands more general methods for accurate quality assessment of medicinal plants. In this study, ultra performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC/Q-TOF MS) technique applied to this metabolic profiling is a powerful tool due to its higher sensitivity, resolution, and speed compared to conventional HPLC technique. The metabolite profiling of several medicinal plants including Panax ginseng was carried out using UPLC/Q-TOF MS and total metabolites were then subsequently applied to various statistical tools to compare the patterns. The developed metabolomics tool with UPLC/Q-TOF MS successfully identified and classified the samples tested according to their origins.

The mycolic acids and fatty acids of mycolic acid- containing bacteria in various types of fluids were analyzed using capillary gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. As model strains, Brevibacterium and Coryebacterium species, which have corynomycolic acids ill the range of $C_{32}C_{36}$ in the whole cell, were investigated. Optimized solvents extraction procedures for the mycolic acids and fatty acids from the culture fluids were: chloroform/methanol (1:2, v/v) as the first extraction solvents fur 4 h; and chlorofunuwater (1:1, v/v) as the second extraction solvents far 1 h. These conditions gave above 95% recovery yields fur mycolic acids from the culture fluids. The mycolic acid profile for the whole cells and the culture fluids were similar fur all the media tested. Thus, the procedure described here could be applied for the identification of mycolic acid-containing bacteria in fermentation broth or liquid from of foods.

The photodegradation characteristics of 30 pharmaceuticals were investigated by batch experiments using Ultraviolet (UV) reactor. The investigated pharmaceuticals include antibiotics, analgesics and antiarrhythmic agents etc. Tested water was prepared by simultaneously spiking 30 pharmaceuticals into pure water, and each experiment was conducted using 3 types of UV lamps. As a result, batch experiments showed that reactions of all the investigated pharmaceuticals followed pseudo-first order reaction regardless of the applied UV lamps. Among the pharmaceuticals, Cyclophosphamide, 2-Quinoxaline carboxylic acid and Clarithromycin proved to be the most UV-resistant compounds. Contrarily, Ceftiofur, Diclofenac and Ketoprofen were easily degraded by all the UV lamps. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration hardly changed although the concentration of the pharmaceuticals concentration gradually decreased with time, indicating that the degradation of parent pharmaceuticals may produce their intermediates during UV treatment.

Two anthocyanins were isolated from 1% HCl-20% methanol extracts of KG 97287 black common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) using semipreparative, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The anthocyanins were identified using a combination of LC/ES-mass spectrometry (MS) and spectroscopic methods of UV-Vis, $^1H-$ and $^{13}C-$ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The chemical structures of these two anthocyanins were elucidated as delphinidin 3-glucoside and petunidin 3-glucoside and their contents in KG 97287 black common bean seed coats were determined to be $2.614{\pm}0.11$ and $0.167{\pm}0.01\;mg/g$, respectively. These contents were lower than reported internationally and we recommend the introduction into Korea of high anthocyanin varieties of black common bean.

The contents of index components in 5 medicinal crops cultivated at different heights in Andong area. The contents of allantoin in Dioscorea batatas Decne and catalpol in Rehmannia glutinosa Liboschitz were not different by cultivation heights (100 ~ 200m). But the contents of index components in Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica acutiloba Kitagawa were higher in samples cultivated at elevated heights. At 700 m of heights, the contents of formononetin and astragaloside I in Astragalus membranaceus were 1.20 and $201.2{\mu}g/g$, respectively. The contents of decursin and nodakenin in Angelica acutiloba Kitagawa were 68.3 and 4.20 mg/g, respectively. Thus Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica acutiloba Kitagawa are recommended to be cultivated in higher altitude.
