초록

가스크로마토그래피와 동위원소질량분석기를 온라인으로 연결하여 이루어지는 성분별동위원소분석기술은 지구과학, 환경과학 및 법의학 분야에서 안정동위원소 분석의 최신 기술이다. 1990년대부터 GC-IRMS는 법의학 분야에서 식품의 진위감별과 환경과학 분야의 유기오염물질의 오염원 추적에 널리 이용되어 왔다. 국내에서는 한국기초과학지원연구원에 2005년 초에 처음으로 GC-IRMS가 설치되었다. 이 연구에서는 한국기초과학지원연구원에서 운영중인 GC-IRMS를 간단히 소개하고 제조사가 다른 BTEX의 성분별탄소동위원소의 예비분석결과를 소개한다.

Compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) by isotope ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS) interfaced with gas chromatography (GC) is a state of the art analytical technique for stable isotopes in earth sciences, environmental sciences and forensics. Since early 1990s, GC-IRMS has been widely used to investigate the authenticity of food in forensic science and to trace the sources of organic contaminants in environmental science. In Korea, a GC-IRMS was firstly installed at the Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI) in early 2005. In this study, we introduce the GC-IRMS of the KBSI shortly to stimulate various isotope-related researches of Korea, and report preliminary CSIA results for BTEX of different manufacturers.
