The effect of gamma irradiation on volatile components of Korean dried ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) was studied and compared with non-irradiated sample. Volatile compounds from non- and irradiated samples were extracted using simultaneous distillation-extraction (SDE) apparatus and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC/MS). A total of 83 and 71 compounds were identified and quantified from non-and irradiated dried ginger at dose of 10 kGy. Identified components were hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, esters, ketones and miscellaneous compounds. The terpenoid compounds in volatile flavor compounds identified from non and irradiatied dried ginger were $98.27\%\;and\;98.12\%$, respectively. $\alpha$ -zingiberene,$\beta$-sesquiphelland reno, geranial, (Z,E) $\alpha$ -farnesene, $\beta$ -phellandene were detected as major volatile compounds of two experimental sample. The amount of volatile components in the samples was changed by irradiation but the profile of volatiles in non- and irradiated dried ginger were the same.

Compare with volatile organic compounds from unirradiated and irradiated dried-red pepper that is representative spice of korea. Volatile compounds from unirradiated and irradiated dried-red pepper were extracted using simultaneous distillation-extraction(SDE) apparatus and analyzed by Gas chromatography/mass spectrometer (GC/MS). A total of 61 and 62 compounds were identified from unirradiated and irradiated dried red pepper at dose of 10 kGy. These compounds included alcohols, aldehydes, furans, hydrocarbons, ketones, N-containing compounds, terpenes and micellaneous compounds. Furfural, benzaldehyde, linalool, nerolidol, ${\alpha}$-curcumene, ${\alpha}$-zingibirene were detected as the major volatile compounds from dried-red pepper. Specially, 1,3-bis[1,1-dimethylethyl]-benzene was confirmed as a marker of irradiated dried-red pepper because is not detected in unirraiatied dried-red pepper.

This study identified material properties through scientific analysis on Jikgeumdan(satin with gold threads) from Donggungbi-Wonsam and the gold threads used in the embroidery. The Donggungbi-Wonsam's base of gold threads were estimated to have used mulberry fiber's Korean paper(Hanji) because non-wood-based fibers were observed. The X-ray spectrometer showed that the Tongsuseulan of Donggungbi-Wonsam was a flat gold thread of pure gold and Jikgeumdan of flat silver thread of its Saekdong and Hansam. High sulfur levels were detected in the flat silver thread, which appeared to have formed silver sulfide by either manufacturing process using sulfur or conservation environment. he dragon insignia's embroidery is also described as two types twisted gold threads; pure gold and alloying-gold and silver. while dragon insignia's border line is decorated with a twisted gold thread of pure gold. In particular, it was investigated that adhesives such as an animal glue, a protein-based compound by gas chromatography mass spectrometry. Additionally, XRF and Raman spectroscopy analysis on the mixture substances between the metal surface and the base paper of gold threads identified talc and quartz in the gold threads and Seokganju(hematite) in the flat silver threads.

Recently, various stakeholder are interested in microplastic to cause pollution of the marine's ecosystem and effort to conduct study of product's life cycle to reduce pollution of marine's ecosystem. The micorplastic refer to materials of the nano- to micro- sized units and it can be classified into primary and secondary. The primary microplastic mean the manufactured for use in the specific field such as the microbead of the cosmetic or cleanser. also, secondary mean the unintentionally generated during use of the product such as the textile crumb by the doing the laundry. Tire and Road Wear Particles(TRWPs) are also defined as secondary microplastic. Typically, TRWPs are created by friction between the tread compound's rubber of the tire and the surface of the road du ring the driving cars. Most of the generated TRWPs exist on the roadside and some of them were carried to marine by the rainwater. In this study, we perform the quantitative analysis of the TRWPs existed in fine dust at the roadside. So, we collected the dust from the roadside in Chungcheongnam-do's C site with a movement of 1,300 cars per the hour. The collected samples were separated according to size and density. And shape analysis was performed using the Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). We were possible to discover a lot of TRWPs at the fine dust of the 100 ± 20 ㎛. And we analysis it u sing the Thermo Gravimetric Analysis(TGA) and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometer(GC/MS) for the quantitative components from the tire. As a result, it was confirmed that TRWPs generated from the roadside fine dust were included the 0.21 %, and the tire and road components in the generated TRWPs consisted of the 3:7 ratio.

This paper described the relatively sensitive and simultaneous analytical method for 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCDP, $C_3H_7ClO_2$, MW. 110) as well as 1,3-dichloropropan-2-ol (1,3-DCP, $C_3H_6Cl_2O$, MW. 128) in various foods. Food samples were homogenized in 5M NaCl solution, mixed with aluminum oxide and eluted with dichloromethane. The extracted chloropropanols were concentrated by rotary evaporator and $N_2$ blow serially were derivatized with HFBA (Heptafluorobutyric anhydride, $C_8F_{14}O_3$, MW. 410) and were determined by GC/MS using isotope dilution method. The characteristic molecular ions at m/z 253, 275, 289, 291, and 453 for HFBA derivatives of 3-MCPD (MW. 502) and 110, 275, and 277 for HFBA derivatives of 1,3-DCP (MW. 325) were chosen in selected ion mode. The method validation data showed sufficiently good properties of LOD (0.003 mg/kg), LOQ (0.010 mg/kg), linearity ($R^2{\geq}0.999$ at 0.010~1.000 mg/kg), and recovery rate (${\approx}97%$). The levels of chloropropanols in soy sauce, sauces, processed meat products, fishery products, and seasonings (n=56/157) determined by the presented method were 0.0~0.3 mg/kg.

Objectives : To investigate the modern research achievements of agarwood and its association with the efficacy of herbal medicine based on the in vivo and in vitro activities of volatile compounds detected in agarwood. Methods : Databases such as PubMed and ScienceOn were searched for medicinal in vivo and in vitro activity studies on agarwood. They were categorized into "medicine and pharmacy" and "others not related to medicine and pharmacy," and the studies on medicine and pharmacy were organized according to active efficacy. The efficacy and virtue of agarwood as identified in the book (or herbal medicine/herbology) corresponded to modern medical terms and diseases in reference to the . Separately, the Gas Chromatography & Mass spectrometer (GC-MS) analysis results of agarwood from a total of 5 production areas of Aquilaria crassna from Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Cambodia as identified in previous studies were consulted to search for research papers on the medicinal activity of the 13 compounds of the aromatic sesquiterpene family detected in agarwood, and they were categorized according to topic. Results : There were 123 studies on the medicinal activity of agarwood. Overall, 46 studies on single extracts of agarwood reported activities such as improving mental health, including anti-anxiety and stability, and antiallergic, antioxidant, antibacterial, and digestive system protective effects. In total, 59 papers on the activities of single compounds isolated from agarwood reported anti-inflammatory and mental health benefits. Separately, 13 compounds detected in agarwood, such as α-agarofuran and β-caryophyllene, were reported by 110 studies to have anticancer, stabilizing, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory activities. There were also papers on the cultivation methods and resin formation conditions of agarwood trees unrelated to the efficacy of herbal medicine. Conclusion : Among the pharmacological papers, a total of 57 papers corresponded to the effects of agarwood in traditional herbal medicine, including 33 papers related to agarwood extracts and 24 papers analyzing 8 types of sesquiterpenes, such as β-caryophyllene and cedrol, from previous studies. Based on the research findings of each paper, it was possible to correlate the effects of agarwood in traditional herbal medicine with the achievements of modern pharmacological research. In addition, further research is anticipated in new areas related to traditional herbal medicine, including the improvement of mental health such as anti-depression, as well as activities related to anticancer, antioxidant, and hair growth.
