When extracting semi-volatile components of herbal medicines using hot water vapor, some substances may react with water vapor or oxygen, and some volatile substances may be lost, when using an organic solvent extraction method has the disadvantage that it may contain a non-volatile material and residual organic solvent. In addition, it is inefficient to separate semi-volatile substances from herbal medicines into each single component and conduct biological activity research for each component to determine the effective ingredient, and some components may be lost in the separation process. In this study, semi-volatile substances evaporated under two pressure-reduced conditions in Chinese herbal medicines such as Cnidii Rhizoma, Aucklandiae Radix and Amomum Fructus were separated by cooling with liquid nitrogen. Those were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to identify the components, and this method may be used to study biological activities at the cellular level. The substances separated under reduced pressure, essential oil obtained by simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) method and substances by using solid phase micro-extraction (SPME) from Cnidii Rhizoma, Aucklandiae Radix and Amomum Fructus were analyzed by GC-MS. In the case of Cnidii Rhizoma and Aucklandiae Radix, there were some differences among the essential oil components obtained by SDE and those identified by low temperature capture (CT) and SPME method, these were believed to be produced by some volatiles reacting with water or oxygen at the boiling point temperature of water.

We measured the alkenone concentration of bulk sediments from a piston core collected from the Ulleung Basin in the East Sea in order to reconstruct past sea surface temperatures (SST). Sediment ages are well constrained by AMS $^{14}C$ dates of the planktonic foraminifera Globigerina bulloides. Coretop alkenone SST calibration with modern surface temperatures and sediment trap dat (Hong et al., 1996) indicate that the SST estimated from alkenones most likely represent the temperatures of late fall. Downcore variations in the alkenone saturation index indicate that between 19 and 15 kyr BP the surface waters were about $3^{\circ}C$ warmer than today. Between 15 and 11 kyr BP, the temperatures were about $3^{\circ}C$ lower than today. A rapid SST increase of about $3^{\circ}C$ occurred at approximately 10 kyr BP. After considering the factors which might influence the SST reconstruction from the $U^{k'}_{37}$ values, we conclude that the alkenone temperature estimates are reliable. The reason for glacial warming in the East Sea is not clear, although there is a possibility that it could be caused by shift in the season of maximum alkenone production from summer during the last glaciation to late fall during the Holocene. Cooling between 15 and 11 kyr BP may be due to inflow of cold water into the East Sea such as via the Oyashio Current or ice-melt water. Warming at the early Holocene could be due to inflow of the Tsushima Current into the East Sea through the Korea Strait.

In this article, we reviewed the monitoring status of hazardous VOC in ambinet air in Korea and some developed countries such as USA, Japan, and UK. In many countries, two types of VOC monitoring stations are being operated, i.e., for hazardous VOC and photochemical VOC. Each country has different target VOC but all includes benzene. Korea, Japan, and UK have a national ambient air quality standard for benzene, but no national standard has been established in the USA. For sampling of the hazardous VOC, the adsorbent method is adopted in Korea and UK, while the canister method is used in the USA. Both of adsorbent and canister methods are used in Japan. USA and UK have only non-automatic method to measure the hazardous VOC, and the individual samples are being sent to their national laboratories for integrated analysis. On the other hand, Korea and Japan have automatic and nonautomatic methods to measure the hazardous VOC. Local governments or regional environmental agencies in Korea and Japan have the authorization for the sampling and analysis of VOC. According to a field study to evaluate the performance of automatic VOC monitoring system, controlling the moisture in the air sample was identified as the most important problem. However, careful attention must be given to using a moisture removing device such as Nafyon dryer, because of unexpected artifacts formation. In order to have reliable data, it is highly recommended not only to use internal standards, but to use appropriate hydrophobic adsorbents as a cold trap in any automatic on-line VOC monitoring system.

30MeV 사이클로트론의 양성자가 Xe-124 기체 표적 시스템에 조사될 때 일어나는 핵반응을 적용하여 Xe 가스를 GPM으로부터 타겟으로 전송하는 시스템을 설계하였다. 시스템 설계는 크게 4파트로 구성되며 각각의 하드웨어 부분은 솔리드웍스 3-D 캐드를 이용하여 설계하였다. 타겟 시스템 중 헬륨으로 Havor foil을 냉각시키게 설계했고, 타겟 내 Xe 가스가 양성자로 조사 시 상승하는 타겟 온도를 냉각수로 냉각시켜주도록 설계하였다. 또한, 온도센서와 압력센서를 장착하여 타겟 내의 온도와 압력을 확인할 수 있도록 구성 하였다. GPM은 Xe 가스를 타겟으로 운반, 준비하는 부분이며 Xe 가스를 저장하는 부분과 불순물을 제거하는 부분으로 구성되어 있다. HCS는 헬륨을 이용하여 각 파트를 세척하고 냉각시켜 주는 부분이며, 각각의 장치들은 PLC로 제어하여 유지보수시의 편리성을 추구하였고 PC Vue 모니터링 프로그램을 사용하여 SIEMENS PLC와 인터페이스 하여 시스템을 보다 안전하고 편리하게 감시하도록 구성하였다.

30MeV Cyclotron의 양성자가 Xe-124 기체 표적 시스템에 조사될 때 가능한 핵반응을 적용하여 Xe Gas를 GPM으로부터 Target으로 까지 전송하는 시스템을 설계하고 제작하였다. 시스템 설계는 크게 4파트로 나누어 설계하였다. 각각의 하드웨어 부분은 솔리드웍스를 이용하여 설계하였다. Target은 헬륨으로 Havor Foil을 쿨링시키게 설계했고 물은 타겟에 들어간 Xe Gas를 조사 시 높아지는 온도를 식혀주는 역할을 하게 제작하였고 온도센서와 압력센서를 장착하여 눈으로 확인할 수 있게 제작하였다. GPM(Gas Process Manifold)은 Xe Gas를 운반하도록 준비하는 부분이며 Xe Gas를 담고있는 부분과 불순물을 제거하는 부분이 있다. HCS(Helium Circulation System)은 헬륨을 이용하여 각파트를 클리닝 하고 냉각시켜 준다. 이러한 각 부분들을 PLC로 제어하게 하여 유지보수시의 편리성을 추구하였고 PC Vue를 사용하여 SIEMENS PLC를 더욱더 안전하게 인터페이스하게 하였다.
