Because ammonia in water body can cause water pollution as a result of generating ammonium ion, it is of importance in the management of water quality. This work performed to analyze the ammonium ion by measuring the color band length on the basis of modifying the indophenol method. When 1-naphthol was employed as a coloring agent, the maximum absorbance was shown near 720nm, where the proper injection was in the range of 0.5-1.5ml. About 80% of absorbance was observed after the color development was made within the 20 minutes. In the manufacturing of coloring agent, the proper concentration of NaOH was 1.5-2.5M, and the effect of pH on the color development is negligible. In addition, the color development was effectively in the region of room temperature.

1. 시료의 흡광도는 입도가 커짐에 따라 전체 파장 영역에 걸쳐 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 가시광 영역에서는 입도 보다도 색상의 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 2. 시료의 함수율과 각 파장에서의 흡광도 사이의 상관관계는 550~950nm 영역에서는 상관계수가 0.53이하로 작았으며, 물의 흡수파장대역인 1430 nm 부근에서는 0.85~0.87로 높게 나타났다. 3. 각 시료들의 반사 스펙트럼을 이용하여 세 가지 파장 영역에 대해 PLS회귀모델과 MLR 모델에 의한 함수율 예측 모델을 개발하였다. 모든 시료에서 PLS회귀모델이 MLR 회귀 모델보다 예측성능이 우수하였다. 4. PLS회귀 모델에서 전처리 효과를 분석한 결과, 시료의 입도에 따른 흡광도의 차이를 보정하기 위해 평활화, 미분, MSC, SNV 등의 전처리가 필요한 것으로 판단되었다. 5. 전체시료에 대해 함수율 예측을 위한 PLS회귀모델을 개발한 결과 400~2500nm영역에서의 개발된 모델의 예측성능은 $R^2$=0.9986, SEP=0.2166, 900~1700nm영역에서의 모델은 $R^2$=0.9985, SEP=0.2233이었으며 550~950nm 영역에서의 모델은 $R^2$=0.9838, SEP=0.7405로 나타났다. 각 시료의 종류별로 회귀모델을 개발할 경우 상기 결과보다 SEP가 더욱 작게 나타났다. 6. 이 연구 결과에 의하면 현재 시판되고 있는 실시간 분광기를 이용할 경우 시료의 입도에 무관한 온라인 함수율 측정장치의 개발이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

A scheme for predicting the concentration of a glucose solution based on its relative optical absorbance at multiple probe wavelengths was proposed and verified. The relative absorbance at each of the probe wavelength was obtained with respect to the absorbance at a reference wavelength. The single reference wavelength (1310 nm) and a group of four different probe wavelengths (1064, 1550, 1685, 1798 nm) were selected to exhibit the glucose absorbance with opposite signs, thereby enhancing the accuracy of the prediction. The final glucose concentration was estimated by taking the average of the predicted values provided by the four probe wavelengths. The absorbance of the glucose solution for the path length of 5 mm was $-1.42{\times}10^{-6}\;AU$/(mg/dL) at the reference wavelength of 1310 nm and peaked at $+8.12{\times}10^{-6}\;AU$/(mg/dL) at 1685 nm. The concentration of the glucose solution was decently predicted by means of the proposed scheme with the standard error of prediction of ${\sim}28\;mg/dL$. In addition, the influence of the ambient temperature and the fat thickness upon the prediction of the glucose concentration was examined. The absorption change with the temperature was $-9.1{\times}10^{-5}\;AU/^{\circ}C$ in the temperature range of $26{\sim}40^{\circ}C$ at the reference wavelength, and $-2.08{\times}10^{-2}\;AU/^{\circ}C$ at 1550 nm. And the absorption change with respect to the fat thickness was +1.093 AU/mm at the probe wavelength of 1685 nm.

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 changes in color of spinach leaves upon blanching in boiling water and by microwave oven were investigated. The noticible changes in color of leaves were observed above $70^{\circ}C$. The values of L (lightness), a (redness) and b (yellowness) were decreased upon blanching. The value of the under surface of leaves was decreased by 2~3 times compared to that of the upper surface. The noticible color changes occured from 15 sec and the absorbance at 432 nm of water increased rapidly from 2 min of blanching in boiling water. Salt (0.5 and 0.9%) decreased the absorbance at 432 nm of water. The changes of L and b of the under surface of leaves upon heating with a microwave oven were less compared with those in boiling water. Based on the color differences of leaves upon blanching in boiling water, the optimum ratio of spinach to water was 1:4 or 1:5.

An 8-hydroxyquinoline compound that was synthesized with 8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxaldehyde and 4-aminoantipyrine was investigated for use as the sensing material of a fiber-optic copper ion sensor in an aqueous environment. The experiment was conducted with a fiber-optic measurement system, in order to evaluate the relationship between the absorbance peak and copper ion concentration. The synthesized derivative exhibited a (highly selective) chromogenic phenomenon for copper ions among various metal ions in an aqueous environment and showed a specific absorbance peak at a wavelength of 530 nm for copper ions. The effect of mercury ions was investigated to evaluate the selectivity of the prepared synthesized derivatives toward Cu ions. The absorbance was measured at various concentration ratios of Cu and Hg ions (Cu:Hg ratios from 0.05 to 20), and it was found that the absorbance at 530 nm tended to increase with increasing Cu ion concentration. The experimental results also showed the linear relationship between the logarithmic concentration of copper ions and the specific absorbance peak at a wavelength of 530 nm. These results indicate that the synthesized 8-hydroxyquinoline compound has selectivity for copper ions and can be used as a sensing material for fiber-optic copper ion sensors.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of the homogenizing grade of sample on absorbance of near infrared reflectance spectrophotometer with which chemical compositions of food were rapidly and effectively analyzed. By the mathematical treatment of absorbance values standard error of prediction was reduced as follows. 1. The absorbance values of various samples ground for the same periods of time were calibrated before or after treatment with first or second derivative in an attempt to accurately predict the components of samples ground for the different periods of time. The standard error of prediction for moisture content were 1.478%, 0.658% and 0.580%, respectively, those for fat content 0.949%, 0.637% and 0.527%, respectively, and those for protein content 0.514%, 0.493% and 0.394%, respectively. Calibration of absorbance values after second derivative treatment showed the highest accuracy in predicting sample components. 2. The absorbance values of various samples ground for the different periods of time were calibrated before or after treatment with first or second derivative in order to accurately predict the components of samples ground for the different periods of time. The standard error of prediction for moisture content were 1.026%, 0.589% and 0.568%, respectively, and those for protein content 0.860%, 0.557% and 0.399%, respectively. The standard error of prediction were lower in the order of calibrations before and after first and second derivative treatments. As a result, calibration of absorbance values after second derivative treatment showed higher accuracy regardless of grinding time of samples.

This study aimed to suggest the optimum number of rinsing by researching changes in optical density and pH in accordance with the number of rinsing after toothbrushing, and then verifying the amount of residual toothpaste in mouth. Total 14 university students who had healthy body with no difficulties in daily life were selected from the students of K university in Daegu as the research subjects. The research subjects rinsed their mouths with 40ml of water from zero time to 12 times after toothbrushing. After collecting each rinsing water, the optical density and pH were measured. In the results of measuring the optical density value of each rinsing water, the rinsing water of six-seven times or more after toothbrushing showed the constant value of optical density, which was statistically significant(p<0.05). There were no differences in accordance with the amount of toothpaste such as 1g, 1.5g, and 2g. Based on such results of this study, it would be necessary to provide the education of the use of dentifrice, and also to have diverse researches on the effects of residual dentifrice in mouth on the oral cavity.

Spectrophotometric determination of rare earth elements with MTB and the composition ratio were investigated in the presence of surfactants of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), Triton X-100, dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTMAB) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB) at pH 6.5. The colour development between MTB and rare earths in the presence of cationic surfactants was very stable and more sensitive than that in the absence of surfactants. The largest absorbance increase was provided by CPC, which was therefore chosen for determination of rare earth elements. REE-MTB-CPC complex has absorption maxima at 650 nm and obeys the Beer's law in the range of 0∼100 ng/ml. Molar absorptivity is $6.6{\sim}9.4{\times}10^4\;mol^{-1}l\;cm^{-1}$.

The rice leaf color, which was one of main factors to determine application time of fertilizers, was analyzed in visible region, while the distinction of photosynthetic pigments controlling the rice leaf color was separated by T.L.C. The light absorption peaks of ethyl ether extracts of rice leaf blades were occurred in 413, 432, 453 and 662nm. Especially, the maximal light absorption was 432nm in blue and 662nm in red region. The both light absorption ratios (blue to red region) was not greatly different among rice ecotypes, whereas decreasing tendency in increased fertilization was observed. There was a significant negative correlation between the both light absorption ratios and the values of color chart, and the content of chlorophyll in rice leaf blades. The composition ratio of chorophyll was larger than that of carotenoid at heading stage, and the carotenoid was larger than the chlorophyll at 30 days after heading. The composition ratio of chlorophyll among photosynthetic pigments according to rice ecotypes, Japonica x Indica cultivars were larger than Japonica cultivars at heading stage, and Japonica cultivars were larger than Japonica x Indica cultivars at 30 days after heading, while carotene was vice versa.
