A method has been investigated for the determination of selenium and tellurium in Ginseng, Ganoderma and Garlic using hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry(HG-AAS). The concentration effects of hydrochloric acid and sodium tetrahydroborate on the hydride generation for the determination of selenium and tellurium were investigated. The method of sample decomposition was also investigated using various mineral acids, such as nitric, perchloric and sulfuric acid in the closed system, and foreign ion effects containing in the samples were studied. The calibration curves of selenium and tellurium were obtained in the range of 0~40 ppb. The detection limits(S/N=2) of selenium and tellurium are 0.1 and 0.2 ppb. Analytical data of selenium and tellurium in Garlic, Ganoderma and Ginseng are 289, 296 and 198 ng/g for selenium and 146, 127 and 110 ng/g for tellurium, respectively.

Bio assay of mercury and cadmium ions were searched using voltammetric analysis using DNA doped carbon nanotube paste electrodes (DCP). The square-wave stripping voltammetryic optimized results indicated working ranges of 1-10.0 $ngL^{-1}$ and 20-100 $ugL^{-1}$, Hg(II) Cd(II) within an accumulation time of 120 seconds, in 0.1-M phosphate buffer solutions of pH 6.3. The relative standard deviations of 5 $ngL^{-1}$ Hg(II) and Cd(II) that observed were 0.14 and 0.22% (n=12), respectively, using optimum conditions. The low detection limit (S/N) was pegged at 0.1 $ngL^{-1}$ ($4.9{\times}10^{-11}M$) Hg(II) and 0.2 $ngL^{-1}$ ($1.77{\times}10^{-10}M$) Cd(II). The developed methods can be applied to assays in biological fish kidneys and water samples.

The three electrode system was used to detect the pesticide fenitrothion ($C_9H_{12}NO_5PS$. MW=277.24) using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV). The working electrode was mercury immobilized on a carbon nanotube paste electrode (Hg-CNTPE). At the optimized condition, the limit of detection (LoD) was 0.6 ppt ($2.16{\times}10^{-12}\;M$), and the relative standard deviation was 0.035% (n=15). And there is more sensitive in detecting fenitrothion than common type carbon nanotube paste electrode. When it was implanted into the brain of live fish (carp), the existence of fenitrothion was measured without any destruction or damage of tissue.

The procedures currently used for determining microbiological quality of natural mineral water recommend filtration through membrane filters. In this study, we evaluated the effect of vacuum pressure for the accurate detection of bacteria from water samples seeded with Escherichia coli. We observed that the number of E. coli detected increased with increasing vacuum pressure. In order to examine the retention rate of bacteria in the holes of the membranes under the different pressures, the membrane filters were removed after filtration, washed with sterile water by vortexing, and placed on m-Endo agar plates. With all the filters tested, the number of E. coli retained within the filters at negative 600 mmHg was approximately 10 to $20\%$ higher than that obtained with 100 mmHg. These results demonstrate that the vacuum pressure exerted during the filtration procedure may affect the fixation of bacteria into some portions of openings in the membrane filter.

Novel rhodamine 6G fluorescent chemosensors 1 and 2 for the detection of transition metal cations were synthesized through the condensation of rhodamine 6G ethylenediamine with each of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde and 2,6-pyridinedicarbaldehyde, respectively. 1 and 2 were characterized using $^{13}C$ NMR, $^1H$ NMR and mass spectroscopy. Fluorometric and colorimetric measurements involving various metal ions revealed the ring opening of the rhodamine 6G spirocycle framework. In the absence of metal cations, 2 was colorless and non-fluorescent, whereas the addition of metal cations ($Hg^{2+}$ and others) changed the color to pink, accompanied by the appearance of an orange fluorescence. The chemosensors exhibited high selectivity for $Hg^{2+}$ over other divalent first-row transition metals. The complexes of $Hg^{2+}$ with 1 and 2 were successfully isolated. A huge enhancement in the fluorescence for both one- and two-photon excitations makes these compounds suitable candidates to be used for fluorescent labeling of biological systems.

목 적 : 기계적 환기요법을 시행 받은 미숙아에서 생후 첫 7일 동안 고탄산혈증과 중증 뇌실내 출혈의 발생과의 연관성을 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법:출생 후 7일 이상 기계적 환기 요법을 받은 재태주령 37주 미만의 미숙아를 대상으로 하여, 3단계 이상의 뇌실내 출혈로 진단받은 경우 IVH 군(n=19)으로, 정상 또는 1단계 뇌실내 출혈을 보인 경우, 출생 체중과 주수를 대응하여 대조군(n=38)으로 선정하였다. 두 군간의 생후 첫 7일 동안 혈중 이산화탄소 분압($PaCO_2$)의 최대값, 최소값, 평균값과 변화 정도(fluctuation)를 측정하기 위한 지표로 혈중 이산화탄소 분압의 최대값과 최소값의 차이(maximum-minimum)와 평균값의 표준편차를 비교 분석하였다. 결 과:재태주령과 출생체중은 IVH 군은 26.9$\pm$1.7주, 975.3$\pm$262.5g이었고, 대조군은 26.8$\pm$1.5주, 915.6$\pm$198.2 g이었다. IVH 군에서 생후 7일 동안 혈중 이산화탄소 분압의 최대값(IVH 군 vs. 대조군, 86.1$\pm$ 18.4 mmHg vs. 60.1$\pm$11.6mmHg, P <0.001), 평균값 (47.5$\pm$5.6 mmHg vs. 41.2$\pm$6.3mmHg, P=0.004), 최대값과 최소값의 차이(60.3$\pm$20.9 mmHg vs. 35.5$\pm$ 11.8 mmHg, P < 0.001), 평균값의 표준편차(14.0$\pm$4.4mmHg vs. 9.0$\pm$2.4 mmHg, P <0.001)는 유의하게 높았으나 최소값은 두 군 간의 차이가 없었다. 또한 IVH군에서 파종성혈관내응고[11 (57.9%):9 (23.7%), P=0.011], 폐출혈[12 (63.2%):10 (26.3%), P=0.007], 공기누출 증후군[4 (21.1%):1 (2.6%), P=0.021]의 빈도가 많았고, 생후 7일 동안 인공 호흡기 지수의 최대값이 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다. 출혈성 경향, 공기누출증후군, 인공 호흡기 지수의 영향력을 통제한 후에는 혈중 이산화탄소 분압의 최대값이 odds ratio 1.324 (95%CI: 1.011-1.733, P=0.041)로 중증 뇌실내 출혈과 통계적으로 유의한 연관성을 보였다. 결 론 : 기계적 환기 요법을 시행 받은 미숙아에서 출생 후 첫 7일 동안 극심한 고탄산혈증은 뇌출혈의 다른 위험 인자의 영향을 배제한 후에도 중증 뇌실내 출혈의 발생과 연관성을 보였다. 따라서 생후 초기에 호흡기 유발 폐손상을 막기 위해 고탄산혈증을 허용하는 시도는 중요하지만, 과도한 고탄산혈증과 심한 이산화탄소 분압의 변화를 피하고 적절한 이산화탄소 분압을 유지하는 노력이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was carried out to investigate various heavy metal contents in packaging papers by pre-treatments for ICP-ES (Inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectrometry) analysis. Pre-treatment methods of heavy metals in this study include extraction, migration and decomposition methods (dry ashing, $HNO_3-HClO_4-HF,\;HNO_3,\;and\;H_2SO_4-HNO_3$). Test results were compared with conventional extraction (water) and migration (3% acetic acid) methods. The five representative heavy metals (Cd, As, Pb, Cr and Hg) were analyzed. For Cd, Hg, and As, the results were below detection limit of the instrumental technique. It was considered that the migration test was a better method compared to extraction test, but all the decomposition methods showed much higher detection values than the extraction or migration test. In case of recycled corrugated containers, 3% acetic acid solution extracted about 25% of chromium and 30% of lead compared to the content by decomposition methods. Among all decomposition methods, the nitric acid - perchloric acid - hydrofluoric acid treatment brought a slightly higher detection value than others, but there was no significant difference among them except sulfuric acid - nitric acid method.

최근 디지털 방사선 영상획득을 위한 평판형 X선 검출기에 이용되는 광도전체(a-Se, $HgI_2$, PbO, CdTe, $PbI_2$ 등)에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $HgI_2$ 와 a-Se 필름 변환체에 대해 X선에 대한 전기적 신호검출 특성을 조사하였다. 수백 마이크로의 두꺼운 광도전체 필름 제작을 위해 $HgI_2$는 입자침전방법을 이용하였고, a-Se은 종래의 진공열증착법을 이용하였다. 제작된 시편에 대한 전기적 특성 실험은 누설전류, 신호응답 특성, 민감도 등을 측정하였다. 실험결과로부터, $HgI_2$는 상용화된 a-Se에 비해 낮은 동작전압특성과 우수한 신호 발생율을 보임을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 전자선 치료에서 전자선 선량 측정 시 교차교정이 필요한 기존 평행평판형이온함을 대체하고자 하였다. 광도전성 반도체 화합물 HgI₂를 사용하여 선량계로 제작하였으며, 선형가속기에서 6, 9, 12 MeV 전자선에 대한 HgI₂ 선량계의 특성을 분석하였다. 그리고 기존 선량계와의 대체가능성과 전자선 선량계로서의 적용 가능성을 평가하고 전자선 선량계 개발의 기초연구로써 활용하고자 하였다. 재현성 평가결과, RSD는 6, 9, 12 MeV 에너지에서 각각 0.4246%, 0.5054%, 0.8640%로 나타나 출력 신호가 안정적인 것을 나타내었다. 선형성 평가결과, 직선형 추세선의 신뢰도 지표 R²값은 6 MeV에서 0.9999, 9 MeV에서 0.9996, 12 MeV에서 0.9997로 나타나 선량이 증가함에 따라 HgI₂에 출력 신호가 비례한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 HgI₂ 선량계는 전자선 측정 적용가능성이 매우 높은 것으로 판단되며, 전자선 검출에 대한 기초연구로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
