  • Characteristics and advantages of the thermal desorption-comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatography-time of flight mass spectrometry (TD-GCxGC-TOFMS) were discussed and the organic compound's analysis result was shown for the ambient $PM_{2.5}$ sample collected in Seoul, Korea. Over 10,000 individual organic compounds were separated from about $70{\mu}g$ of aerosols in a single procedure with no sample pre-treatment. Among them, around 300 compounds were identified and classified based on the mass fragmentation patterns and GCxGC retention times. Several aliphatic compounds groups such as alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes, alkanoic acids, and alkan-2-ones were identified as well as 72 PAH compounds including alkyl substituted compounds and 8 hopanes. In Seoul aerosol, numerous oxidized aromatic compounds including major components of secondary organic aerosols were observed. The inventory of organic compounds in $PM_{2.5}$ of Seoul, Korea suggested that organic aerosol were constituted by the compounds of primary source emission as well as the formation of secondary organic aerosols.

  • 최근 농식품 중 잔류농약의 분석을 위해서 전처리를 빠르고 단순하게 하면서 고감도의 정밀기기를 이용하여 정성 및 정량을 동시에 행하는 분석방법의 개발이 확대되고 있다. 따라서 신속한 전처리법으로 빠르게 확산되고 있는 QuEChERS(quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe)법과 PTV(programmable temperature vaporizer)가 장착된 GC/TOFMS을 이용하여 분석법을 개발하였다. PTV조건을 확립했으며 사과 시료를 대상으로 3농도 수준에서(50, 100, 400 ng/g) QuEChERS법(acetate buffer법)으로 전처리 한 후 PTV-GC/TOFMS로 분석하여 회수율 및 RSD를 조사한 결과 400 ng/g 농도에서는 230성분(97%)이 80-120%의 회수율을 보였으며 5성분(2.1%)을 제외한 모든 성분에서 RSD값이 10%미만으로 양호한 재현성을 보였다. 가장 낮은 농도인 50 ng/g의 경우에서는 검출되지 않은 33성분을 제외한 203성분 중 197성분(97%)에서 70-120%의 회수율을 보였으며, 4성분(2.0%)을 제외한 모든 성분에서 RSD값이 20%미만으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 확립된 QuEChERS 전처리법과 PTV-GC/TOFMS 분석조건을 이용하여 과일과 야채중의 잔류농약 분석이 가능할 것으로 보였다.

  • A comparison of analytical approaches for Levoglucosan ($C_6H_{10}O_5$, commonly formed from the pyrolysis of carbohydrates such as cellulose) and used for a molecular marker in biomass burning is made between the four different analytical systems. 1) Spectrothermography technique as the evaluation of thermograms of carbon using Elemental Carbon & Organic Carbon Analyzer, 2) mass spectrometry technique using Gas Chromatography/mass spectrometer (GC/MS), 3) Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) for the identification of the particle size distribution and chemical composition, and 4) two dimensional Gas Chromatography with Time of Flight mass spectrometry (GC${\times}$GC-TOFMS) for defining the signature of Levoglucosan in terms of chemical analytical process. First, a Spectrothermography, which is defined as the graphical representation of the carbon, can be measured as a function of temperature during the thermal separation process and spectrothermographic analysis. GC/MS can detect mass fragment ions of Levoglucosan characterized by its base peak at m/z 60, 73 in mass fragment-grams by methylation and m/z 217, 204 by trimethylsilylderivatives (TMS-derivatives). AMS can be used to analyze the base peak at m/z 60.021, 73.029 in mass fragment-grams with a multiple-peak Gaussian curve fit algorithm. In the analysis of TMS derivatives by GC${\times}$GC-TOFMS, it can detect m/z 73 as the base ion for the identification of Levoglucosan. It can also observe m/z 217 and 204 with existence of m/z 333. Although the ratios of m/z 217 and m/z 204 to the base ion (m/z 73) in the mass spectrum of GC${\times}$GC-TOFMS lower than those of GC/MS, Levoglucosan can be separated and characterized from D (-) +Ribose in the mixture of sugar compounds. At last, the environmental significance of Levoglucosan will be discussed with respect to the health effect to offer important opportunities for clinical and potential epidemiological research for reducing incidence of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

  • Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) analysis of nonpolar polymeric materials is affected by the sample preparation as well as the matrix and cationizing agent. This study examined the influence of silver salt types on the MALDI analysis of polybutadiene (PB). Silver trifluoroacetate (AgTFA), silver benzoate (AgBz), silver nitrate ($AgNO_3$), and silver p-toluenesulfonate (AgTS) were used as the silver salts to compare the MALDI mass spectra of PB. The mixture solution of PB and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB), as a matrix dissolved in THF, was spotted on the sample plate and dried. A droplet of the aqueous silver salt solution was placed onto the mixture. The mass spectrum with AgBz showed the clear $[M+Ag]^+$ ion distribution of PB while the mass spectrum with AgTFA did not show $[M+Ag]^+$ ions but only silver cluster ions. The mass spectra with $AgNO_3$ and AgTS did not show a clear $[M+Ag]^+$ ion distribution. The difference in the formation of $[M+Ag]^+$ ions of PB depending on the silver salts was attributed to the silver cation transfer reaction between the silver salt and the matrix (DHB). The mass spectrum showed a clear $[M+Ag]^+$ ion distribution of PB when the conjugate acid of the silver salt was less acidic than the matrix.
