In order to identify the speciation of As and trace elements which are contained weathered waste rocks on the abandoned Jangpoong Cu mine area, five fraction sequential extraction was carried out. Concentrations of the extraction solutions which were acquaired each fraction were mesured by ICP-AES. Mineral characters of weathered waste rocks were determinated by XRD. The weathered waste rocks could divide into two types (Type I and type II). Type land type II weathered waste rocks are mainly composed of a quartz and a calcite, respectively. The most dominant speciation of As, Co and Fe is residual phase. Most of the speciation of Cd, Mn and Zn is residual phase for type I and Fe-Mn oxide phase for type II. In case of Cu, residual phase is predominant in type I and sulfide is predominet in type II. The most dominant speciation of Pb for type I and type II is associated with the residual phase and Fe-Mn oxide phase, respectively. At pH 4-7 range, the order of relative mobility considers Zn>Cu>Cd>Pb>Co>AS in type I, and Cd>Cu>Zn>Pb>As>Co in type II.

The early change observed in lead-induced neurophathy in the rat was Schwann cell swelling. In order to quantify this cell swelling, Schwann cell thickness and major diameter of the nucleus were measured using tranverse section with associated myelinated fiber of sciatic nerves. Group I rats were intoxicated with 0.5% lead acetate in the drinking water for 30 days; group II animals were treated as in group I and then restored to normal laboratory conditions for 30 days; and group III were controls. The results showed that the cell sizes were significantly greater in intoxicated animals, compared with control, and the cell sizes of group II did not differ significantly from control rats.

A method to determine lead ion in aqueous media using an optical sensor loaded on a fluorescent optode membrane incoporating a metal ion-selective ionophore, a proton-selective chromoionophore and lipophilic anionic sites has been studied. The effects of pH and thickness of membrane on the fluorescence intensity were investigated. The effects of foreign ions such as $Na^+$, $K^+$, $Mn^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ on the determination of lead ion were also studied. The linear range in the calibration curve for the determination of lead ion was found to be 5.0${\times}10^-7$ to 5.0${\times}$$10^-3$M and the correlation coefficient in this range was -0.99107 under the optimal experimental conditions. The relative standard deviation of the blank signals was 3.0% and the detection limit of lead ion was 5.0${\times}$$10^-9$M.

A column test was conducted to find out the effect of application of slaked lime, calcium sulfate, calcium superphosphate, and phosphoric acid on the solubility of lead in soil. The soil was adjusted to 310.8 ppm concentration of Pb and applied with amounts of calcium equivalent to 600, 1000, 2000 ppm as slaked lime; sulfate 144, 288, 432 ppm as calcium sulfate; phosphate 95, 190, 285 ppm as calcium superphosphate and phosphoric acid, respectively. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The increasing application of improvement agents reduced the amounts of water soluble Pb in soil. Phosphoric acid was the most effect among to the treatments. 2. The slaked lime treatment has the highest pH of soil and the lowest at the phosphoric acid one. The soil Eh has a reverse tendency the soil pH. 3. Water soluble Ca, $PO_4$ and $SO_4$ contents increased with increasing application amounts of improvement agents in soil. 4. $1N-NH_4$ OAC soluble Pb content in soil was a decreasing tendency in the order of calcium superphosphate, phosphoric acid, slaked lime, calcium sulfate and control after experiment.

The Conservation Science Team of National Museum of Korea has established the data base of lead isotope ratio as the scientific research of bronze patina, which was acquired from conservtion process of metal objects, and based on this result, it intends to conduct the research related to the origin of raw material for the bronze objects. As the equipment for analysis of lead isotope ratio of the bronze patina, the thermal ionization mass spectrometer(TIMS) was used. As a part of this study, in 2nd year 2008, lead isotope ratios of total 18 samples inclding 2 samples of Round-type gold-bronze belong to Baekje period, the 2 items of head of bronze arrow belong to Nangnang(Lelang) and 10 items of the flower-shaped bronze dishes from the Unified Silla period, the 4 items of the bronze patina from the objects(era of 1 item not identified) of Wonpungtongbo(year 1078-North Sung) were analyzed.

We developed an alternative radiation shielding material which is economical and has high protection efficiency. We validated the material in the form of sheet to make an apron. We increased the rate of barium and mixed tourmaline into silicon to improve the flexibility and protection rate of the sheet. The results showed that the shielding effect at low radiation energy is good enough with both 5 mm and 7 mm thickness. In the future, we will perform a quantitative evaluation of the reproducibility, volumetric efficiency, and porosity in mixing the ingredients.

The preconcentration and determination of trace Cu(II) and Pb(II) on calcium alginate beads in aqueous solution were studied. A calcium alginate beads were prepared by adding an alginic acid to sample solution contained Ca(II). Some following conditions were optimized: the pH of sample solution, amount of alginic acid, and stirring time for effective adsorption; the type and concentration of acid, and sonication time in an ultrasonic vibrator for the perfect de-sorption. A sample solution was prepared with Cu(II) and Pb(II) in DI water. And Ca(II) and ethanol was added into the sample solution. The pH of the final sample solution was controlled with buffer solution. The alginic acid were dispersed in the sample solution by a magnetic stirrer. This mixture was stored in room temperature for 30 min to form a calcium alginate. After the beads were filtered and washed on a membrane filter, the analytes were redissolved from the beads by an ultrasonic vibration of 10 minutes in 1.0M $HNO_3$ solution. The effect of diverse ions on the adsorption of analytes were studied. This procedure was applied for the analysis of two real samples. The recoveries in spiked samples were $90.4{\sim}104.3%$ for analytes.

This paper presents investigations on 60 glass beads excavated from floorless tombs of Eunpyeong Newtown site to figure out composition and lead isotope ratio by SEM-EDS and TIMS, which show the difference between their compositions and Pb provenance of lead glass. The results of the composition analysis are that excavated glass are mainly divided into Potash glass($K_2O$-CaO-$SiO_2$) and Potash-lead glass($K_2O$-PbO-$SiO_2$) and the samples excavated from III-3 floorless tombs No.1005 are presumed not glass but Quartz. The transparent 9 lead glasses excavated from II-3 floorless tomb No.101 and III-3 floorless tomb No.908 seem to be manufactured by the same raw material at same site because the concentration of their compositions are well accorded with each other and deviations of them are very limited. As a result of principal component analysis(PCA), glass beads excavated are largely assort to two groups, Potash glass and Potash lead glass as well. That is, glass beads excavated from Eunpyeoung Newtown sites are quite different two types of main composition. In addition, the results of Pb provenance analysis used in lead glass confirm that most lead glass are significantly correlated with galena of northern China.

A method for the determination of lead(II) ion using a nafion-EDTA(ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid)-glycerol modified glassy carbon electrode was proposed. Lead(II) ion is accumulated at the electrode by complexation and electrostatic attraction with nafion-EDTA-glycerol and detected at -0.560$\pm$0.015V (vs. Ag/AgCl) by differential pulse voltammetry. For the determination of lead(II) ion, a standard calibration curve if obtained from 10$^{-9}$ M lead(II) ion to 10$^{-7}$ M, and the detection limit(3s) is as low as 5.0$\times$10$^{-10}$ M.

Phenyl styryl ketone ligands 1-5 containing different functional groups were synthesized and attached to the aminated poly (styrene-divinvlbenzene) copolymer through diazotization. The coupling of the ligand with polymer was confirmed by FT-IR. The variation of the uptakes of Pb (II) or Cu (II) ions loaded in the prepared polymers (6-10) was examined at different pH values. An increase of metal uptake in the polymers was observed with the increase in pH value in aqueous solution.
