We studied absorbance of tinted dye absorbed into tinted lenses by Spectrophotometric method. Used lenses and tinted dye were CR-39 plastic optical lenses and Ons & $Lavas^{(R)}$ Blue, respectively. Absorbance values of tinted dye absorbed into tinted lenses were obtained from the differences of absorbance values between tinted lenses and CR-30 lenses. Average concentrations of tinted dye absorbed into tinted lenses were obtained from the mass differences between tinted lenses and CR-30 lenses. The relationship between absorbance and average concentration for tinted dye absorbed into tinted lenses was also confirmed to follow Beer’s law. The absorption coefficient calculated from the tangent of the calibration curve was determined to be a=0.983 $Lg^{-1}cm^{-1}$.

The methyl red stock solution was added to sample solution and the absorbance values of this solution were measured at the maximum absorption wavelengths of the acidic form, the basic form, and the isosbestic point of the indicator. From the measurements of absorbance, the pH of this solution was calculated. The range of absorbance at the isosbestic point was maintained within 0.1 ${\sim}$ 0.3. The error of pH measurement was within ${\pm}0.08$ pH unit in the pH range of sample solution of $pK_I{\pm}1$.

A picosecond transient absorption kinetic spectrometer using a pump-probe method is presented and compared with other methods of picosecond transient absorption measurements. This constructed kinetic spectrometer detects the transient transmittance of sample using a lock-in amplifier as a function of delay time between pump and probe pulses generated from a picosecond mode-locked cw dye laser. Typical transient absorption and ground state bleach recovery kinetic profiles measured with this spectrometer are shown. Excellent kinetic curves of transient absorption or ground state bleach recovery may be obtained at single wavelengths with this spectrometer.

Red tide has caused massive fish kills in Korean coastal waters with devastating economic loss in the aquaculture industry since 1995. Remote sensing technique has shown to be effective for the detection of red tide in wide areas, where the absorption property of red tide water plays a central role in understanding the red tide reflectance. This study analyzed the optical absorption property of sea waters dominated by the dinoflagellate specie of Alexandirum affine, off the Tongyeong area in August, 2017. Water samples collected from 20 stations in the ship-based campaign were measured for absorption by pigment, suspended solid, and dissolved organic matter, with the corresponding water quality variables such as chlorophyll concentration and total suspended solid. The analysis showed that Alexandrium-dominated water exhibits strong absorption in the spectral range below 400 nm unlike that of diatom-dominated waters, and greater fluctuations in the range of 400 nm - 500 nm. The packaging effect in pigment absorption was stronger in Alexandrium-dominated waters, and the exponent in the absorption by detritus and gelbstoff is disparate for diatom and Alexandrium. In the model for the detritus and gelbstoff absorption (a_dg(λ)=a_dg(λ₀)e^-s(λ-λ₀)), the optimal exponent coefficient(s) for the Alexandrium was close to 0.01 rather than to 0.015, which was commonly use for modelling diatom waters.

The Beer-Lambert law states that absorbance is proportional to the concentration of a solute in a solution at a given wavelength. This linearity works for an ideal or a 'sufficiently diluted' solution, so this linearity is often used as a criterion for the fidelity of the absorbance value measured. In this study, we used a chlorophyll (Chl) solution, isolated from rice leaves with 80% acetone to test the use of the Chl a/b ratio as an additional criterion for checking the fidelity of measured values using four different absorption spectrophotometers: Cary4E, UV-1650PC, Versamax (a microplate reader), and NanoDrop 1,000(which can handle a $4{\mu}l$ aliquot). We used Chl solutions of varying concentrations from $0.2{\mu}g/ml$ to $200{\mu}g/ml$ to measure absorbance values at 645 nm and 663 nm and checked the linearity first. The results indicated that the range of Chl concentrations that we can rely on based on the linearity was similar to the range in which the calculated Chl concentrations based on the measured absorbance values agreed with the known concentrations. However, some border cases or cases with very low Chl concentrations inside the fidelity range of Chl concentrations did not agree with the criterion that the Chl a/b ratio should not change after dilution of the Chl in the solution. These results suggest that the Chl a/b ratio is a better criterion for the reliability of the absorbance values measured for the determination of chlorophyll concentration than the criterion based on the linearity suggested by the Beer-Lambert law.

Freeze dried antler, heat dried antler, antler were extracted through processing step by water, protease and hydrochloric acid(HCl). Extraction rate of freeze dried antler at 50$^{\circ}C$ by water was 9.01％(8.82, absorbance at 280 nm), that of heat dried antler was 9.01％(4.45, absorbance at 280 nm), and that of antler was 1.10％(0.31, absorbance at 280 nm), respectively. Extraction rate of freeze dried antler by bacterial protease was 16.89％(4.50, absorbance at 280 nm), and that of heat dried antler was 17.29％(5.62, absorbance at 280 nm), and that of antler was 18.22％(0.64, absorbance at 280 nm), respectively. Extraction rate of freeze dried antler by 0.8N HCl was 72.25％(4.60, absorbance at 280 nm), that of heat dried antler was 71.14％(4.70 absorbance at 280 nm), and that of antler was 79.82％ (2.80, absorbance at 280 nm), respectively. Extraction rate of freeze dried antler through three processing steps was 98.15％, that of heat dried antler was 97.35％, that of antler was 99.14％, respectively. The result of analysis by HPLC shows that high molecular pe which appears in young antler and antler extraction was changed into a small molecular peak of about 1,000 by the reaction of protease, and protein of about MW 70,000 was extracted from their remaining residue by 0.8N HCl. The above result shows that water extraction and protease extraction in the freeze dried young antler, protease extraction and HCl extraction in dried young antler, and HCl extraction in antler are most effective.

The freeze dried young antler residue was extracted by proteases and hydrochloric acid(HCl). The young antler was extracted by water at 50$^{\circ}C$ and the residue was reacted by proteases for 5 hours at 50$^{\circ}C$. The extraction rate of its residue was 32.8%(absorbance 3.61 at 280nm) of bacteria protease, 23.8%(absorbance 0.69) of papain, and 31.2% (absorbance 2.96) of pepsin. The young antler was extracted by boiling water and the residue was reacted by proteases for 5 hours at 50$^{\circ}C$. The extraction rate of its residue was 45.0%(absorbance 3.61) of bacteria protease, 30.4%(absorbance 0.33) of papain, and 51.2% (absorbance 2.77) of pepsin. The result of HPLC analysis reveals that in 50$^{\circ}C$ water extract and boiling water extract, all high molecular peak was reduced under MW 1,000 by proteases. The result from the extract of young antler residue reacted by HCl for 5 hours at 50$^{\circ}C$ shows that its extraction rate was 45% (absorbance 0.78) in concentration of 0.1N HCl, 61% (absorbance 1.82) in 0.2N, 81% (absorbance 2.29) in 0.4N, and 82.0% (absorbance 3.28) in 2.0N. The result of HPLC analysis also reveals that in the extract by 0.8N HCl, the peak of about MW 70,000 accounted for 78% in total. Protein content of the extract by 0.8N HCl was 8.2%, and content of amino acid was 81.6%, ash was 1.3%, and mineral contents were 0.1 % of Ca, 2.3% of P, 0.8 % of Mg, 3.4% of Na, 0.002% of F by dry base.

알카리성 과황산칼륨을 이용한 자외선 흡광광도법은 수중의 총질소를 간편하면서도 신속하고 정확하게 분석할 수 있는 방법으로 각각의 질소성분을 standard method에 의해 분석한 후 이들을 합산하는 방법보다 회수율이 좋게 나타났다. 자외선 흡광광도법을 이용할 경우 Cr(VI)이온과 Br이온에 의해 방해를 받으므로, Br이온을 다량 함유하는 해수의 총질소 분석방법으로는 적합하지 않은 것으로 관찰되었다. 전처리를 한 후 220 nm에서 흡광도를 측정하기 위해서는 탄산염의 방해를 방지하기 위해 pH를 2~3으로 조절한 후 분석해야만 하고, 알카리성 과황산칼륨을 이용한 자외선 흡광광도법은 총질소를 분석하는 방법으로 우수성이 입증되었으나 각 형태별 질소의 농도를 측정할 수 없는 단점이 있으므로 각 형태별 질소의 농도를 측정하기 위해서는 standard method를 이용해야 된다. 본 연구에서 알카리성 과황산칼륨을 이용한 자외선 흡광광도법은 총질소를 분석하는데 있어서 standard method에 의한 합산법보다 시간과 노력을 절약할 수 있는 것으로 검토되었다.

A new method that considers the pellet sedimentation characteristics for fungal cell concentration measurement was developed using optical density. Appropriate mixing of the pellet suspension almost homogeneously was tried to prevent the sedimentation of the pellet by a small magnetic bar in cuvette, giving a stable optical density. The linear relationship between optical density and the dry cell weight was obtained. However, different curved lines were observed according to the pellet size. Optical density couldn't be detectable in the size range of $355{\mu}m$above. It was concluded from the result that the use of optical density for measuring cell concentration in fungal broth became possible by considering the characteristics.
