two modified methods for assaying sodium diclofenac were developed by gc and hplc. diclofenac was converted into methyl ester derivative by methyl iodide in acetone. the ester was extract and subjected to glc with flame ionization detector. %5 se-30/chrom w-hp (80-100 mesh) was used as a column in gc. for reversed phase hplc, the mobile phase was methanol and water (55-45). the separation was p...

in this study, a simple and reliable method by gas chromatograph–mass spectrometry (gc–ms) was developed for the fast and regular identification of 3, 4-mdma impurities in ecstasy tablets. in so doing, 8 samples of impurities were extracted by diethyl ether under alkaline condition and then analyzed by gc–ms. the results revealed high mdma levels ranging from 37.6% to 57.7%. the gc-ms method sh...

BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is the fourth most common cancer worldwide and more frequently detected in Asian countries including Korea and Japan. The incidence of young-age gastric cancer (GC) is increasing worldwide, but clinical behavior of young-age GC patients is not well established. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical features and outcomes of GC diagnosed at young-age population. MET...

We evaluated the analytical, work flow, and clinical performance of the Versant CT/GC DNA 1.0 assay (Versant CT/GC assay, where "CT" represents Chlamydia trachomatis and "GC" represents Neisseria gonorrhoeae). The assay simultaneously detects Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae in swab and first-catch urine (FCU) specimens. The limit of detection (LoD) was determined to be 342 copie...

In this report the basis for the structural architecture of the envelope of hantaviruses, family Bunyaviridae, is systematically studied by the interactions of two glycoproteins N and C (Gn and Gc, respectively) and their respective disulfide bridge-mediated homo- and heteromeric oligomerizations. In virion extracts Gn and Gc associated in both homo- and hetero-oligomers which were, at least pa...

We compared oral fluid testing to urine testing in subjects who were administered single doses of marijuana by smoked and oral routes. Oral fluid specimens were collected with the Intercept DOA Oral Specimen Collection Device, screened for THC with the Cannabinoids Intercept MICRO-PLATE Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) utilizing a 1.0-ng/mL cutoff concentration, and confirmed for THC by gas chromatogra...

PURPOSE We investigated the clinicopathologic information of patients with gastric cancer with multiple primary cancers (GC-MPC) of three or more sites. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 1995 and 2009, 105,908 patients were diagnosed with malignancy at Severance Hospital, Yonsei University Health System. Of these, 113 (0.1%) patients with MPC of three or more sites were registered, and 41 (36.3%)...

BACKGROUND Increasing attention is focused on the relationship of inflammation biomarkers with malignant tumors. The purpose of the present study was to detect whether the preoperative the red distribution width (RDW) and the platelet distribution width (PDW) can be used to distinguish patients with gastric cancer (GC) or early stage GC from the healthy controls and predict the progression and ...
