로듐이 미량으로 존재할 때 펄스차이 폴라로그래피로 정량할 수 있는 용액조건을 확립하였다. 포름알데히드 0.004%(w/v)-염산 0.75M의 조건에서 가장 예민한 수소촉매파를 얻을 수 있었다. 이 조건에서 검출한계는 $7.0{\times}10^{-12}M$이고 봉우리 전류가 선형인 농도범위는 $1.0{\times}10^{-11}{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-8}M$이었다. 이 농도범위에서 다른 백금족 원소가 500배까지 존재하여도 방해를 받지 않았다.

폼알데히드는 피혁 제조나 사진 건판, 폭약 등을 만들 때 이용되며, 정수장에서 오존 처리시 생성되는 소독 부산물이기도 하다. 노출시 안구 가려움증, 간지러움, 콧물, 코막힘, 두통 등의 증상이 나타나며 목이 건조해지거나 염증이 유발된다. 폼알데히드는 US. EPA에서 호흡으로 흡입할 경우 발암등급 B1으로 분류하는 발암성 물질이다. 본 연구에서는 폼알데히드의 분석을 위해 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) 유도체를 만든 후, 고체상 카트리지를 사용하여 추출하였고 High Performance Liquid Chromatography/Diode Array Detector (HPLC/DAD) 로 분석하였다. 검출 한계는 $3{\mu}g/L$이고, 72.3~109.1% (상대표준편차 2.9~11.5%)의 회수율을 보였다. 1998년도부터 2007년도까지 4대강 수계를 중심으로 채수하여 분석한 결과, 정수에서 검출 빈도 48.8% (630/1291), $5.15{\sim}101.9{\mu}g/L$의 농도로 검출되었다. 먹는물 음용시 비발암성을 고려한 95 percentile 전국 평균 위험지수는 $4.37{\times}10^{-3}$로, 이는 1 이하였으므로 안전한 수준으로 판단하였다.

Methyl mercaptan oxidase was successfully induced from Rhodococcus rhodochrous IGTS8 using methyl mercaptan gas and purified to homogeneity for the detection of mercaptans. The purification procedure involved DEAE-Sephacel and Superose 12 column chromatography with recovery yields of 85.8 and 83.3%, and a specific activity of 92.7 and 303.4 units/mg-protein, respectively. The molecular weight of purified methyl mercaptan oxidase was determined to be 64.5 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The extract from gel filtration chromatography oxidizes methyl mercaptan to produce formaldehyde, which can be easily detected by the purpald-coloring method. Optimum temperature for activity was achieved at 60$^{\circ}C$. This enzyme was inhibited by both K$_2$SO$_4$and NaCl at concentration of less than 100mM and recovered to original activity at concentration of 200mM. In the presence of methanol, the activity decreased by 33%.

Methyl mercaptan oxidase was successfully induced in Thiobacillus thioparus TK-m using methyl mercaptan gas, and was purified for the detection of mercaptans. The purification procedure Involved a DEAE (diethylaminoethyl) -Sephacel, or Superose 12, column chromatography with recovery yields of 47.5 and 48.5%, and specific activities of 374 and 1240.8 units/mg-protein, respectively, The molecular weight of the purified methyl mercaptan oxidase was 66.1kDa, as determined by SDS-PAGE. The extract, from gel filtration chromatography oxidizes methyl mercaptan, producing formaldehyde, which can be easily detected by the purpald-coloring method. The optimized temperature for activity was found to be at 55$\^{C}$. This enzyme was inhibited by both NH$_4$Cl and (NH$_4$)$_2$SO$_4$, but was unaffected by either KCl or NaCl at less than 200 mM. With K$_2$SO$_4$, the activity decreased at 20 mM, but recovered at 150 mM. In the presence of methanol, full activity was maintained, but decreased in the presence of glycerin, ethanol and acetone 43, 78 and 75%, respectively.

Lime paint surpassing others in execution efficiency, anti-bacterial, anti-mold and small quantity emission of VOCs(Volatile Organic Compounds) characteristics was developed using a limestone as raw materials. The lime paint prepared by mixing slaked lime($37{\sim}40\;wt%$), PVA:EVA(9 wt%:1 wt%), talc(23 wt%), $TiO_2$(14 wt%), zeolite (3 wt%), antifoaming agent(5 wt%), wetting agent (5 wt%) was indicated over 99.8% of anti-bacterial and anti-mold characteristics. Also, the environment-friendly function of the lime paint was confirmed by detection of small amount of TVOCs($0.01\;mg/m^2h$) and formaldehyde($0.008\;mg/m^2h$). Execution efficiency, economy-and environment-friendly characteristics of this lime paint can make up for defects of established paints. And, it also presents the advantage of a limestone as high value added materials.

This study was designed to investigate the characteristics of atmospheric concentrations of toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in Korea. Target compounds included 1,3-butadiene, aromatics such as BTEX, and a number of carbonyl compounds. In this paper, as the first part of the study, the performance of sampling and analytical methods was evaluated for the measurement of selected VOCs and carbonyl compounds in the ambient air. VOCs were determined by the adsorbent tube sampling and automatic thermal desorption coupled with GC/MSD analysis, while carbonyls by the DNPH-silica cartridge sampling with HPLC analysis. The methodology was investigated with a wide range of performance criteria such as repeatability, linearity. lower detection limits, collection efficiency, thermal conditioning, breakthrough volume and calibration methods using internal standards. In addition, the sampling and analytical methods established in this study were applied to real field samples duplicately collected in various ambient environments. Precisions for the duplicate samples appeared to be comparable with the performance criteria recommended by USEPA TO-17. The overall precision of the sampling and analytical methods was estimated to be within 20 ∼ 30% for major aromatic VOCs such as BTEX, whereas the precision for major carbonyl compounds such as formaldehyde and acetaldehyde was within 10 ∼ 20% for field samples. This study demonstrated that the adsorbent sampling and thermal desorption method can be reliably applied for the measurement of BTEX in ppb levels frequently occurred in common indoor and ambient environments.

Xylene is a hazardous volatile organic compound that should be precisely measured to monitor indoor air quality. However, the selective and sensitive detection of ppm-level xylene using oxide-semiconductor gas sensors remains a challenge. In this study, pure and Cr-doped Co₃O₄ nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using flame spray pyrolysis, and their gas-sensing characteristics to 5-ppm xylene at 250 ℃ were investigated. The 4 at% Cr-doped Co₃O₄ NPs exhibited a high gas response to 5-ppm xylene (resistance ratio to gas and air = 39.1) and negligible cross-responses to other representative and ubiquitous indoor pollutants such as ethanol, benzene, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, and ammonia. In this paper, the enhancement of the gas response and selectivity of Co₃O₄ NPs to xylene by Cr doping was discussed in relation to the catalytic promotion of the gas-sensing reaction. This sensor can be used to monitor indoor xylene.

Micro-electronic gas sensor devices were developed for the detection of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO_x), ammonia (NH₃), and formaldehyde (HCHO), as well as binary mixed-gas systems. Four gas sensing materials for different target gases, Pd-SnO₂ for CO, In₂O₃ for NO_x, Ru-WO₃ for NH₃, and SnO₂-ZnO for HCHO, were synthesized using a sol-gel method, and sensor devices were then fabricated using a micro sensor platform. The gas sensing behavior and sensor response to the gas mixture were examined for six mixed gas systems using the experimental data in MEMS gas sensor arrays in sole gases and their mixtures. The gas sensing behavior with the mixed gas system suggests that specific adsorption and selective activation of the adsorption sites might occur in gas mixtures, and allow selectivity for the adsorption of a particular gas. The careful pattern recognition of sensing data obtained by the sensor array made it possible to distinguish a gas species from a gas mixture and to measure its concentration.

Thiobacillus thiooxidans KCTC2505에서 메칠머캅탄(MM) 가스를 기질로 메칠머캅탄 산화효소(MMO)를 유도할 수 있었으며 DEAE-Sephacel과 Superose 12 컬럼 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 정제하였다. 이때 얻어진 각 효소의 비활성은 각각 19.7과 80.1 units/mg-protein이었으며 효소의 최적 온도는 $43^{\circ}C$였다. 상기 정제된 효소액은 SDS-PAGE상에서 68.1 kDa의 분자량을 가진다. 이 효소는 암모늄염의 존재하에서는 활성이 증가하였으나 KCl 존재하에서는 감소하였으며 NaCl에 대해서는 거의 영향을 받지 않는 특성을 가지고 있다. 에탄올, 메탄올, 글리세린의 첨가에 대해 효소활성은 부분적으로 불활성화되었으며 아세톤의 경우에는 완전히 저해되었다. Purpald 발색법을 이용한 흡광도의 변화는 구강내 존재하는 MM 가스로부터 생성될 수 있는 수 십 nmol의 범위의 포름알데하이드에 대해 눈으로 인지가능한 발색시스템에 사용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
