Abstract
The analysis of hazard compounds, including naphthalene, biphenyls (BP) and diethyl phthalate (DEP), was conducted from the wooden kitchenwares and sanitory produce. Fifty samples of that wooden products in the local market were purchased for the study. All the samples were extracted by benzene and n-heptane, followed by the analysis through GC-MSD. As a result, neither naphthalene nor diethyl phthalate were found, however, trace amount of biphenyls were detected on all the samples ranged from 0.1 to 3.1 ppm. Biphenyls also contained both in the imported and the domestic of White Birch wood, as 0.25 ppm and 0.34 ppm, respectively. The concentration of biphenyls reduced with the process of the original woods, and especially the detection range was relatively low compared with the permission one of apples (110 ppm). The results suggested that biphenyls were contaminated into the product not by the addition doting the process of manufacture, but as the component itself in raw wood materials. Also, the content of the residual biphenyls were not suspected to give the harmful effects.
시중 유통되고 있는 50종의 목제 주방기구와 위생용품을 각각 benzene과 n-heptane에 용출시켜 GC-MSD를 이용하여 분석한 결과, naphthalene과 diethyl phthalate는 모든 조건에서 검출되지 않았으나, biphenyl의 경우 전 제품에서 미량이 검출되었다. Biphenyl은 자작나무 수입 원목과 국산 원목에서도 각각 0.25 ppm, 0.34 ppm 함유되어 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 biphenyl의 검출량은 목제를 가공하는 과정 중에 감소하며, 그 검출량은 과일의 잔류 허용치 (110 ppm)에 비해 극히 미량인 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 biphenyl의 유입경로는 제품의 제조 및 생산과정에서 첨가되었다기 보다는 제제 자체에 잔존한다고 추정되며, 이러한 biphenyl의 잔존량은 인체에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 농도는 아닌 것으로 판단된다.
