김해시 동지역을 중심으로 20개의 지점을 선정하여 대기중에 포함되어있는 휘발성유기화합물에 대해 Passive Sampler를 이용하여 2개월에 1회 측정하였다. 이를 GC/FID를 이용하여 정량분석하여 동지역의 휘발성유기화합물의 오염 분포를 나타내었다. 지역별로 오염 분포를 살펴본 결과 공단의 영향과 교통의 영향이 복합적으로 나타나는 지점의 농도가 전반적으로 높게 검출되었으며, 주택지 또는 주택인근지역의 농도가 상대적으로 낮게 검출되었다.

본 연구결과에서 측정기간 동안 측정기별로 상당한 농도차이를 나타낸 기간을 살펴보면 풍속이 높았던 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서, 기상요소 중 풍속은 미세분진의 측정시 유입속도에 영향을 일으켜 부유분진 측정농도에 오차를 야기 시킬 수 있는 것으로 생각할 수 있다. 결론적으로 건강유해 영향을 일으킬 수 있는 미세분진의 측정에 다양한 측정기가 사용될 수 있지만, 측정장소의 환경적 요소인 실내 및 실외환경뿐만 아니라 풍속같은 기상요소를 고려하여 측정기를 선택하여야 한다.

해초에 서식하는 부착생물의 생태학적인 이해를 위해 수주의 물리 화학적 요인 (수온, 염분, 영양염의 농도)이 잘피와 부착생물 및 부착조류의 성장에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 영양염의 농도 중 특히 질산염은 해양 수주 내에 부족할 경우 식물 플랑크톤을 비롯한 광합성 식물의 성장을 방해하는 요인으로 잘 알려져 있으며 (예, Bougis, 1976), 질산염이 부착생물에 미치는 영향에 대한 많은 연구가 수행되었다(Williams and Ruckelshaus, 1993, Coleman and Burkholde.,1994, 1995).

For an ideal extractive bioconversion in aqueous two-phase systems, the product has to be preferentially partitioned into the phase opposite to the one in which the biocatalyst is located. Partitioning behaviors of Lactobacillus helveticus IAM 11090 and lactic acid in aqueous two-phase systems composed a polycation, poly(ethylenimine) (PEI), and an uncharged polymer (hydroxyethyl)cellulose (HEC) were investigated. L. helveticus cells were preferentially partitioned to the HEC-rich top phase while about 85% of lactic acid was partitioned to the PEI-rich bottom phase. These results indicate that extraction of charged, low molecular weight products in an aqueous two-phase systems can be promoted by using an oppositely charged polymer as one of the phase-forming polymer. By the ideal partitioning of the cells and lactic acid, an aqueous PEI/HEC two-phase system can be used as a potential system for the extractive lactic acid fermentation of cheese whey.

Sediment, aquifer materials, surface water, and groundwater from brackish Songji lake affected by salinity of seawater, were collected and a pilot scale column experiment was conducted to simulate the nitrogen transport through the hyporheic zone. Upstream experiments of groundwater displayed that groundwater containing a small amount of salt percolated into aquifers and sediments, maintaining low dissolved oxygen concentrations. In addition, partial denitrification occurred in the aquifer due to salinity and low dissolved oxygen, resulting in the accumulation of NO₂^-. In sediments,nitrogenous compounds were reduced due to adsorption by long residence times or microbial-mediated oxidation/reduction reactions. Downstream experiments of surface water displayed that surface water from the brackish lake, containing high concentrations of dissolved oxygen and salts, infiltrated into the sediments and aquifer, supplying high dissolved oxygen concentrations. This resulted in biological nitrification in the sediments and aquifer, which reduced nitrogen-based pollutants despite the high salt concentration in the surface water. Whereas partial denitrification at low dissolved oxygen concentrations in the upwelling mixing zone was observed by salinity and accumulated NO₂^-, nitrification at high dissolved oxygen concentrations in the downwelling mixing zone was not significantly affected by salinity. These results confirm that salinity in the brackish water lake has some influence on the nitrogen behavior of the hyporheic mixing zone, although nitrogen behavior is a complex combination of factors such as DO, pH, substrate concentration, and organic matter concentration.

It was analyzed to identify the cause of $PM_{2.5}$ concentration changes for the fall in 2016 and 2017 in South Korea using ground measurement data such as meterological variables and $PM_{2.5}$, AOD from GOCI satellite, and WRF-CMAQ modeling system. The result of ground measurement data showed that the $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations for the fall in 2017 decreased by 12.3% ($3.0{\mu}g/m^3$) compared to that of 2016. The difference of $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations between 2016 and 2017 mainly occurred for 11 Oct. - 20 Oct. (CASE1) and 15 Nov. - 19 Nov. (CASE2) when weather conditions were difficult to long-range transport from foreign regions and favored atmospheric ventilation in 2017 compared to 2016. Simulated $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations in 2017 decreased by 64.0% ($23.1{\mu}g/m^3$) and 35.7% ($12.2{\mu}g/m^3$) during CASE1 and CASE2, respectively. These results corresponded to the changes in observed $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations such as 53.6% for CASE1 and 47.8% for CASE2. It is implied that the changes in weather conditions affected significantly the $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations for the fall between 2016 and 2017. The contributions to decreases in $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations was assessed as 52.8% by long-range transport from foreign regions and 47.2% by atmospheric ventilation effects in domestic regions during CASE1, whereas their decreases during CASE2 were affected by 66.4% from foreign regions and 33.6% in domestic regions.

The present study aims to identify the effect of land cover categories on particulate matter (PM) concentrations by analyzing the correlation between monthly PM concentrations in Seoul's air quality monitoring network and the percentages of land cover categories by buffers around air quality monitoring stations. According to a monthly correlation analysis between land cover categories and PM concentrations, in the buffer 3km, PM₁₀ showed a better correlation than PM_2.5, there was a clear negative correlation with the forest area, the grassland and the urbanized area had some positive correlation with PM₁₀, and the barren land and the urbanized area had some positive correlation with PM_2.5. According to a monthly correlation analysis of dominant land cover sub-categories and sub-sub-categories within the buffer 3km, PM₁₀ showed a clear negative correlation with the broad-leaved forest, and some positive correlation with the road was dominant. PM_2.5 showed partly negative correlation with the broad-leaved forest and partly positive correlation with the commercial area. There was a very low or no correlation with other grassland and bare land subcategories. A monthly stepwise regression analysis on noticeable land cover sub-categories and sub-sub-categories with positive or negative correlations revealed that an increasing percentage of the broad-leaved forest had a clear effect on reducing PM₁₀ concentrations, and the road was excluded from the selected variables. Although an increasing percentage of the commercial area had some effect on increasing monthly PM_2.5 concentrations and an increasing percentage of the broad-leaved forest had an effect on decreasing the PM_2.5 concentrations, their effect size was smaller than that on PM₁₀. The forest area around the city center had the largest and clearest effect on reducing PM concentrations. The urbanized area's sub-categories and sub-sub-categories were also confirmed to have some effect on increasing PM concentrations.

Diagnostics membranes which were made of polyacrylonitrile were prepared for the measurements of blood glucose concentration. Final absorbances at 680nm through polyacrylonitrile diagnostic membranes were measured at various concentration of glucose in blood. It was found that the end-point results of varing absorbance values as time (K/S) had a linear relationship toward the blood glucose concentration. The effects of possible constituents in human blood on the glucose concentration measurements were examined. As a result, most of the chemicals did not affect seriously on the blood glucose measurements.

It was investigated that the influent sugar concentration and the dilution rate have an influence on the ethanol fermentation characteristics at steady state in a chemostat culture of K. fragilis using Jerusalem Artichoke juice as substrate. And also the optimum condition of high ethanol productivity and low residual sugar output in the ethanol production by K. fragilis, was clarified to be given at a dilution rate of 0.22/hr and at an influent sugar concentration of 85g/l.
