A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with phytic acid (PA) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were investigated by voltammetric methods in buffer solution. The PA-SWNTs/GCE-modified electrode demonstrated substantial enhancements in electrochemical sensitivity and selectivity towards dopamine (DA) in the presence of L-ascorbic acid (AA). The PA-SWNTs films promoted the electron transfer reaction of DA, while the PA film, acting as a negatively charged linker, combined with the positively charged DA to induced DA accumulation in the film at pH under 7.4. However, the PA film restrained the electrochemical response of the negatively charged AA due to the electrostatic repulsion. The anodic peak potentials of DA and AA could be separated by electrochemical techniques, and the interferences from AA were effectively eliminated in the DA determination. Linear calibration plots were obtained in the DA concentration range of 0.1-10 μM and the detection limit of the DA oxidation current was determined to be 0.06 μM at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The results indicated that the modified electrode is used to determine DA without interference from AA.

A denitrifying polyphosphate-accumulating bacterium (YKP-9) was isolated from activated sludge of a 5-stage biological nutrient removal process with step feed system. This organism was a Gram-negative, coccus-shaped, facultative aerobic chemoorganotroph. It had a respiratory type of metabolism with oxygen, nitrate, and nitrite as terminal electron acceptors. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain YKP-9 was most similar to the 16S rRNA gene sequence of Paracoccus sp. OL18 (AY312056) (similarity level, 97%). Denitrifying polyphosphate accumulation by strain YKP-9 was examined under anaerobic-anoxic and anaerobic-oxic batch conditions. It was able to use external carbon sources for polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHA) synthesis and to release phosphate under anaerobic condition. It accumulated polyphosphate and grew a little on energy provided by external carbon sources under anoxic condition, but did neither accumulate polyphosphate nor grow in the absence of external carbon sources under anoxic condition. Cells with intracellular PHA cannot accumulate polyphosphate in the absence of external carbon sources under anoxic condition. Under oxic condition, it grew but could not accumulate polyphosphate with external carbon sources. Based on the results from this study, strain YKP-9 is a new-type denitrifying polyphosphate-accumulating bacterium that accumulates polyphosphate only under anoxic condition, with nitrate and nitrite as the electron acceptors in the presence of external carbon sources.

The electrochemical behaviors of estrone in the presence of various surfactants were examined with great details. It is found that a cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), obviously facilitates the electro-oxidation of estrone at carbon paste electrode (CPE) from the significant peak current enhancement and the negative shift of peak potential. Additionally, chronocoulometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were also used for further investigation of the electrode process of estrone, indicating that low concentration of CTAB exhibits excellent enhancement effects on the electrochemical oxidation of estrone, greatly enhances the diffusion coefficient and the electron transfer rate. Based on this, an electrochemical method was proposed for the determination of estrone. The oxidation peak current is proportional to the concentration of estrone in the ranges over 9.0 × 10?8 - 8.0 × 10?6 mol/L, and a low detection limit of 4.0 × 10?8 mol/L was obtained for 180s accumulation at open circuit (S/N = 3). Finally, this proposed method was demonstrated using estrone tablets with good satisfaction.

The influence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on the electrochemical behavior of bisphenol A at the carbon paste electrode (CPE) was investigated. CTAB, with a hydrophobic C-H chain, can adsorb at the CPE surface via hydrophobic interaction and then change the electrode/solution interface, and finally affects the electrochemical response of bisphenol A, confirming from the remarkable oxidation peak current enhancement. The electrode process of bisphenol A was examined, and then all the experimental parameters which affects the electrochemical response of bisphenol A, such as pH value of the supporting electrolyte, accumulation potential and time, potential scan rate and the concentration of CTAB, were examined. Finally, a sensitive and simple voltammetric method was developed for the determination of bisphenol A. Under the optimum conditions, the oxidation peak current of bisphenol A varied linearly with its concentration over the range from $2.5\;{\times}\;10^{-8}\;to\;1\;{\times}\;10^{-6}$ mol/L, and the detection limit was found to be $7.5\;{\times}\;10^{-9}$ mol/L. This method was successfully employed to determine bisphenol A in some waste plastic samples.

토지 이용 변화는 토양 내 유기물과 양분 상태에 영향을 줄 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 경기도 광주군 검단산 일대에서 과거 논으로 이용되다가 현재는 버드나무-신나무 우점의 산림으로 변한 지역, 밭에서 잣나무 인공조림지로 변한 지역, 그리고 과거부터 지속적으로 참나무류가 우점하고 있는 산림 지역 등 세 가지 토지 이용 형태를 선정하고 여기에서 토양 내 탄소와 질소의 농도, 토양 호흡, 그리고 질소 유효도 등을 측정, 비교하였다. 경작지의 휴경 후 20년이 경과한 다음, 토양 내 탄소와 질소의 농도는 토양 깊이 0-10cm, 10-20cm에서 과거 논이었던 지역이 다른 지역에 비하여 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 일반적으로 탄소와 질소의 농도는 표층에서 높고 토양 깊이가 증가할수록 점차 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 이것은 유기물의 유입과 분해의 차이로 인한 축적량이 과거 논이었던 지역에서 가장 많기 때문이며, 탄소와 질소의 증가는 주로 표층에 국한한데에 기인하는 것으로 보인다. 토양 발생 이산화탄소량은 논에서 산림으로 변한 지역에서 가장 높게 나타났으며, 이는 토양 내 높은 탄소 농도와 습윤한 수분 조건 때문인 것으로 보인다. 이온교환수지봉지법으로 측정한 토양 내 질소 유효도는 토지 이용 형태에 따라 유의한 차이를 나타내었는데, 무기태 질소 $NH_4{^+}+NO_3{^-}$)의 유효도와 암모니움태 질소의 농도는 산림지역에서 가장 높고, 밭에서 산림으로 변한 지역, 논에서 산림으로 변한 지역의 순으로 점차 감소하였다.

In the summer of 2008 (August 4-14), vertical and horizontal distributions of inorganic nutrients and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were measured in the southwestern East Sea. Concentrations of DOC were determined for the first time in the southwestern East Sea using the high-temperature combustion oxidation (HTCO) method, and results were compared with those measured by another laboratory. Concentrations of DOC ranged from 58 to 104 ${\mu}M$ in the upper 200 m, showing a typical decreasing pattern with depth. Generally, concentrations of DOC were relatively lower, with higher nutrient concentrations, in the upper layer of the coastal upwelling zone. Concentrations of DOC ranged from 54 to 64 ${\mu}M$ in the deep Ulleung Basin (200-1500 m), and were higher than those in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. In association with rapid vertical ventilation of the euphotic, this difference indicates a larger accumulation of semi-labile DOC in the deep East Sea than in the major oceans. A correlation between apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) and DOC in the deep ocean of the East Sea revealed that only a small portion (<10%) of the sinking DOC, relative to the sinking particulate organic carbon (POC), contributes to microbial degradation. Our results present an important data set of DOC in the East Sea, which plays a critical role in carbon cycle modeling and sequestration.

The study analyzes the forest status of each local government for Korean forests and believes that it can be used as basic data for setting the direction pursued by each local government. The study took into account the fact that the forest rate in Korea was 63.5%, because it was judged that the higher the proportion of forest area, the more important it was to use the characteristics of forests. The characteristics of forests were analyzed based on four factors in 12 factors to identify the location of the ground body by dividing seven types. In addition, basic information on carbon absorption sources was provided by grasping the ability of carbon absorption sources per year through the amount of forest resources to be analyzed. In addition, as a result of analyzing the characteristics of the weather for the promotion of carbon absorption sources, the flat area on the side of Gangneung Mountain was a warm forest with a warm index of 106.0.

Adenine-guanine 동시영양요구성인 Brevibacterium ammoniagenes D-21530을 사용하여 5'-IMP을 생산할 경우, 5'-IMP생성에는 탄소원으로 fructose가 glucose보다 효율적이었다. 반면에 균 생육에는 glucose를 탄소원으로 사용하는 것이 좋았다. Glucose와 fructose를 혼합하여 사용할 때 균 생육을 적절히 조절하여 5'-IMP축적을 증가시켜 줄 수 있었으며 fructose와 glucose의 혼합당에 있는 fructose의 함유율을 20∼40%범위로 하였을 때 5'-IMP생성이 최대가 되었고 fructose 단독으로 사용할 때보다 약 40% 증가되었다. 또한 영양요구성물질인 adenine과 guanine의 첨가농도가 증가함에 따라 균생육이 촉진되나 150㎎/l 이상에서는 정상상태였고, 5'-IMP생성은 50㎎/l 까지는 첨가 농도에 따라 급격히 증가하나 그 이상에서는 감소하였다.
