The analytical method of toxic heavy metals in disposable diapers was developed. Disposable diapers obtained from Korea, Japan, America and German were determinated and quantified. Sample treatment (Total Digestion) was wet chemical acid digestion for extraction of nine hazardous inorganic elements (Sb, As, Pb, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Ni, Hg) in disposable diapers. Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometer (ICP-AES) have been used for analyzing nine hazardous inorganic elements. The results were as follows : The concentration of extractable Sb which was treated for 3 hours with artificial urine and disposable diapers was higher than those of 6 hours and 24 hours. The concentration of extractable Cr was same as Sb. On the other hands, the behavior of Cu and Ni were different from Sb and Cr. Concentrations of extractable Cu and Ni increased as increasing the reaction time between artificial urine and disposable diapers.

The ion beam alignment technique is one of the potential and fascinating methods. However, there are merely a few reports about aligning nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) horizontally for in-plane switching mode (IPS) by means of low energy ion beam exposure on inorganic materials such as DLC. In this study, we have investigated the tilted vertical alignment of NLC by the ion beam technique on the thin films of various amorphous silicon compounds as new inorganic alignment materials. Appropriate pretilt angles of NLC with preferred orientation on these thin films were achieved. And the electro-optic property of vertically aligned single domain cells has been investigated.

A series of the long-chain iron(II) alkylsulfonate hydrates were synthesized via self-assembly of surfactant alkyl chains in aqueous medium. Reaction of iron(II) salts with n-alkylsulfonate yields lamellar $Fe(CnH2n+1SO3)2{\cdot}4H_2O$. These compounds show a layered structure, as determined by XRD, consisting of alternating organic alkylsulfonate layers and inorganic iron(II) hydrate layers, with interlayer distances of upto 3.2 nm. This lamellar structure may be attributed to the amphiphilic nature of the surfactants, mediating the coordination and H-bionding interactions, and the hydrophobic alkyl chains. An alkyl chain packing of present system are differ from those of similar Cu(II) series, which are attributed from the size of hydrated metal(II) ions.

The study was carried out to improve and regulate the drinking water quality standard and drinking water quality monitoring substances. For the reliability and safety of finished water, It has been monitored for trace organic and inorganic compounds of 333 in finished water of water treatment plants during 1989 to 2003. As a result of monitoring, 51 compounds were detected from 333 compounds, and it has been regulated the drinking water quality standard of 26 substances and 20 mitoring substance. Improvement and regulation method of the drinking water quality standard was performed by comparing and analyzing with detection concentration, detection frequency, risk assessment and foreign drinking water quality standard.

$K_2NiF_4$-type layered compounds of the ($C_nH_{2n+1}NH_3)_2SnCl_4$ (n=2, 4, 6, 8, and 10) system have been synthesized from a stoichiometric mixture of $SnCl_2$ and alkyl ammonium salt using a low temperature solution technique under the inert atmosphere condition. Their crystal structures are assigned to the orthorhombic system by X-ray powder diffraction analysis. The a and b cell parameters show small changes. However, the c parameter is varied significantly according to the increment of alkyl chains of the organic layer which is located between inorganic layers in the compounds. The conformational phase transitions of the compounds are studied by the DSC in the temperature range of 300 to 500 K. FT-IR and Raman spectra are analyzed in the ranges of 1300 to 4000 cm-1 and of 50 to 360 $cm^{-1}$ with Ar-laser (λ=514.5 nm) excitation, respectively. Photoluminescence phenomena are observed for some compounds. The bond-length of Sn-Cl is determined by the EXAFS spectroscopic analysis.

The aim of this study was to determine volatile flavor compounds in Shingo pear juice. Volatile flavor compounds were analyzed using solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) - gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The effect of inorganic salts solution on the extraction ability of the SPME fiber was treated by adding saturated $CaCl_2$ solution at the ratio of 1:20 (v/v) after 0, 60, 120 min of preparing pear juice, respectively. As a result, a total of 22 volatile compounds were identified in Shingo pear juice. Ethyl acetate was found to be the most abundant volatile compound ($13.36{\sim}19.61{\mu}g/kg$), followed in order by hexanal, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl 3-(methylthio)-2-propenoate, ethyl octanoate and 2-hexenal. Total contents of volatile flavor compounds were $31.07{\mu}g/kg$ (control), $40.93{\mu}g/kg$ (0 min), $27.62{\mu}g/kg$ (60 min) and $26.32{\mu}g/kg$ (120 min). This result indicated that the addition of saline solutions could inhibit the enzymatic reaction of volatile flavor compounds effectively when treated as soon as juice preparation.

Nowadays, there are a number of colorimetric techniques available for the determination of a time killing assay in a manner much easier and faster than those previously more commonly used, which were much more time-consuming and laborious colony counting procedures. Here, an attempt has been made to test the antimicrobial peptides of Citropin 1.1, Palm-KK-$NH_2$, and Temporin A on a reference strain of Staphylococcus aureus using resazurin as the cell viability reagent. Staphylococcus aureus was exposed to the test compounds over varying periods of time and the metabolic activity measured, with a profile of antimicrobial activity then established. The results are in agreement with data from previous literature, thus confirming the relevance of the application of resazurin for the testing of antimicrobial agents.

In this study, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from printing industries were analyzed, and an inorganic adsorbent, ${\gamma}-alumina$, was selected for the effective control of the VOC emissions. Printing processes commonly require inks, thinners, and cleaners, and they were mixed organic solvents containing aromatic compounds, ketones, and alcohols. Therefore, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) were selected as model compounds for this study. The adsorptive properties using ${\gamma}-alumina$ were determined for the model compounds. Both batch isotherm and continuous flow column tests demonstrated that the adsorption capacity of MEK and IPA was 3~4 times higher than that of toluene. The column test performed at an inlet toluene concentration of 100 ppm showed that an 80% breakthrough for toluene was observed after 3 hours, but both MEK and IPA were continuously adsorbed during the same time period. A numerical model simulated that the ${\gamma}-alumina$ could remove toluene at a loading rate of 0.4 mg/min only for a 4-hour period, which might be too short of a duration for real applications. Consequently, lifetime enhancement for ${\gamma}-alumina$ must be implemented, and ozone oxidation and regeneration would be feasible options.
