Analytical method by HPLC and LC-MS/MS for determining lycorine and galanthamine in processed food was newly developed. In this method, coagulant which has never been used in food analysis was applied on cleanup process. With coagulant approach, removal of interfering substances on determination for analytes was easily achieved.

Veterinary drugs were extracted with 95% acetonitrile. The solution was passed through a Florisil column, and the solvent was replaced with phosphate buffer.

A rapid analytical method for the simultaneous determination of carbamate pesticides in processed foods was established by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). The pesticides were extracted from samples with acetonitrile using accelerated solvent extract equipment, except for the fine powder type spices, which were extracted in an ultrasonic bath. The crude extract was cleaned up with a multi-solvent GPC column (Shodex Asahipak GF-310 HQ) using acetonitrile as a mobile phase.

Previously we reported that monosialoganglioside GM(1) (GM(1a)) enhanced transfection efficiency. In this study, we investigated the effects of sialic acid in gangliosides on transfection efficiency.

In the present paper we have studied whether this novel cationic liposome is prominent in nature to suppress cell growth of human cancer cells.
