A quick and simple detection method of explosive compounds in environmental matrix (soil and water) can provide a screening step which reduces the number of unnecessary samples and the cost of expensive laboratory analysis at a site investigation. A commercially available EXPRAY$^{(R)}$Explosives Field Detection Kit (EXPRAY) was used to determine the minimum detection concentration and to test the possibility of semi-quantitative analysis of 14 explosive compounds using standard solutions. The results showed that EXPRAY could detect 5 explosive compounds, TNT, RDX, HMX, Tetryl, and TNB, out of 14 US EPA designated explosives. The minimum detection limit of the nitramine explosives was 14 ng/$^2$ for HMX and RDX. EXPRAY was more sensitive to nitroaromatics than the nitramines and the minimum detection limits per unit area (mm$^2$) for Tetryl, TNB, and TNT, were 3 ng, 3 ng, and 0.3 ng, respectively. The semi-quantification of 5 explosive compounds in an order ofmagnitude could be achieved by the intensity of developed color only when EXPRAY was applied on the standard solutions under controlled laboratory conditions. With contaminated soil samples, however, only the presence and type of explosive compounds was identified. Therefore, EXPRAY is an economic and sensitive method that can be used in a screening step for the identification of explosives in the field samples.

Terzaghi's one-dimensional consolidation theory has some important assumption, which can't be applicable to predict the behavior of soft clay ground. Especially, predictions using infinitesimal strain and linear material function related with permeability can give rise to mistake in comparison with the result of real behavior in site. For this reason, Gibson et al. established a rigorous formulation for the one-dimensional nonlinear finite strain consolidation theory, which can consider non-linearity of material function. But it is difficult to apply this theory to predict the behavior of common soft clay ground with vertical drain. In this study, consolidation model which can consider the vertical and horizontal flow of a fully saturated clay layer, self-weight of soil and nonlinear characteristics of compressibility and permeability are derived. Numerical analysis scheme, which can be applied to consolidation analysis by derived consolidation model in this study was developed. The characteristics of material function were examined using laboratory testing such as standard consolidation test, Rowe-cell test and modified consolidation test.

This study was conducted to identify allelopathic compounds in rye and oat straw extracts by HPLC analysis. These extracts were analyzed with 12 standard chemicals including salicylic acid. 11 chemicals in rye extract except for naringin and in oat extract except for catechin were identified. Salicylic acid(8.34mg/g) in rye straw extracts and naringin(7.50mg/g) in oat straw extracts among these standard chemicals were identified as the largest amount substance. The germination of Chenopodium ablum seeds was significantly inhibited by these chemicals at $10^{-3}$ and $10^{-4}M$ concentrations as compared to control. Salicylic acid in rye and naringin in oat were considered as the major allelopathic substances although allelopathy may be caused by an interaction of many substances. Yet many unidentified chemical compounds are present in both extracts.

It's essential process to study non-linear material function related to characteristics of compressibility and permeability when we predict the consolidation behavior of soft clay ground. In this study, laboratory tests were conducted to find out the material function using marine clay. Standard oedometer test and Rowe cell test were performed with conditions, which were classified into vertical drainage only, radial drainage only and vertical-radial drainage case. Modified oedometer test equipment was developed to find out the material function and special extrusion device was originated to minimize the sample disturbance effect. Reliability of the results in modified oedometer test could be confirmed by comparing with the Rowe cell's one. Effective stress - void ratio - permeability relations were analyzed using all testing results. As a result, void ratio with effective stress level could be expressed by the power function and permeability with void ratio could be expressed by exponential function. In soft clay with high initial water content and low shear strength, non-linear characteristics related to compressibility and permeability varied with wide range by the effective stress levels. It's important to note that non-linearity of the material function should be considered at prediction of the consolidation behavior.

The isotope dilution method was used for the determination of Br impurity in $1000{\mu}g/g$ Cl standard solution. Since relatively pure KCl salt was used for the preparation of the Cl standard solution, the Br impurity determination suffers from both spectral and non-spectral interferences due to the presence of a large amount of K and Cl matrices. AG2-X8 anion-exchange resin was employed to separate the Br analyte from the matrices, and RF power was raised to 1500 W and nebulizer gas flow rate was lowered to 0.77 L/min to reduce background from the $ArArH^+$ molecular ions. The Br impurity in the $1000{\mu}g/g$ Cl standard solution was determined to be 43.7 ng/g with the standard addition method. The analytical result was in good agreement with 41.2 ng/g (RSD 1.6%) determined by the isotope dilution method to lower uncertainty from poor reproducibility of the anion-exchange process.

최근 기후변화와 여름철 고온 등으로 인한 녹조현상, 화학물질 및 유류 유출 등 화학사고로 인한 하천의 수질오염과 관련된 사회적 관심이 높아지고 있다. 특히, 화학사고로 인한 유해화학물질 유출은 인체에 접촉 시 악영향을 끼치며, 대기·수질·토양을 오염시키고 주변 농작물의 변색이나 괴사를 유발하는 등의 피해를 야기하기 때문에 적절한 조치와 대응이 필요하다. 환경부에서는 유해화학물질 유출사고로 인한 국민건강 및 환경상의 위해를 예방하기 위해 화학물질관리법과 화학물질 등록 및 평가에 관한 법률을 제정하여 유해화학물질을 관리하고 화학사고에 대응하고 있다. 그러나, 화학사고 발생 시 공장 인근의 먼지, 악취 등을 감시하기 위해 현장인력에 의존하거나 화학물질의 유출이 우려되는 곳에 제한적으로 검출센서를 설치해 사고를 감시하고 있어 검출센서 미설치 지역에 대한 능동적 탐지가 어렵고, 화학물질의 공간적 분포 탐지가 불가능하여 초동 대응에 한계가 있다. 한편 최근 초분광 영상을 활용하여 물질 고유의 분광특성을 분석함으로써 토지피복, 식생, 수질 등의 식별에 활용되고 있다. 따라서 초분광 센서를 활용한 화학물질 감지 가능성도 보여주고 있지만, 초분광 센서를 활용한 하천의 화학물질 감지를 위한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 유해화학물질 18종을 대상으로 초분광 영상을 이용한 상호 구분이 가능한 지 확인하고자 해당 유해화학물질의 초분광 영상을 촬영하여 분광라이브러리를 구축하였다. 또한 물질별 특성을 보이는 분광밴드의 범위를 지정해 특성 분광라이브러리를 구축하였으며, 해당 과정에 대한 표준 및 절차를 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 절차에 따라 18종의 유해화학물질 분광라이브러리와 특성 분광라이브러리를 구축한 결과, 유해화학물질의 식별 가능성을 확인하였다. 향후 연구를 통해 유해화학물질 분광라이브러리 데이터베이스를 확대하고, 실시간 모니터링에 적용할 경우 신속한 화학사고 발생여부 감지 및 대응에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The heterocyclic amines (HAs) are a family of mutagenic/carcinogenic chemicals formed from the cooking of muscle meats such as beef, meat, fowl, and fish. A major draw back in the analysis of HAs from foods is their very low level of concentration (ng/g) and a number of matrix interferences in samples. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) is one of the procedures widely used for the extraction and purification of HAs in food samples. In this study, several SPE procedures of HAs determination were performed. Recoveries of the HAs were obtained from comparing a matrix such as a standard methanolic solution and pre-cooked meat extracts. Recovery values were ranging between 25.3 and 93.0 % at a concentration of 25.0 ng/g. HAs were determined with high sensitivity by micro-HPLC (${\mu}$-HPLC) analysis with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Another developed method, which is freezing filtration method, shows better extraction recoveries and good precisions. The established method will be applicable to monitoring of heterocyclic amines from the cooked meat.

본 실험에서는 유전자 재조합으로 제조한 〔$^{125}$/I〕-labeled human GM-CSF를 사용하여 GM-CSF의 HL-60 cell의 표면에 존재하는 GM-CSF 수용체의 특성을 밝히고 수용체에 대한 binding parameter를 확인하고 Immunex(미국) 사에서 제조한 Prokine(Sargramostim)과 Sigma사에서 구입한 GM-CSF(C-9666)를 표준물질로 하여 (주) Lucky에서 제조한 GM-CSF(LBD-005)의 수용체에 대한 결합율을 측정, 각각 비교하고자 하였다. 한편 LBD-005는 glycosylation된 form과 안된 form의 혼합물이므로 당화의 정도가 수용체에 대한 결합에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 glycosylated form과 혼합물(LBD-005)의 수용체에 대한 결합율을 측정 비교하였다.
