The preconcentration and determination of trace Cd(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Pb(Ⅱ), Mn(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) in water samples were studied by the precipitate flotation using La(OH)3 as a coprecipitant. The analytes were quantitatively coprecipitated by adding 3.0 mL of 0.1 M La(Ⅲ) solution in a 1,000 mL water sample and adjusting the pH to 9.5 with NaOH solution. After the addition of the 1:8 mixed surfactant solution of each 0.1% sodium oleate and sodium lauryl sulfate, the solution was stirred with a magnetic stirrer for 10 minutes. The precipitates were floated to the surface by bubbling with nitrogen gas and collected in a small sampling bottle. The precipitates were dissolved in nitric acid and then the solutions were diluted to 25.00 mL with a deionized water. The analytes were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. This procedure was applied to the waste water analysis. This technique was simple, convenient and especially rapid for the analysis of a large volume of sample. And also, from the recoveries of better than 92% which were obtained from real samples, this method could be judged to be applicable to the preconcentration and quantitative determination of trace elements in water samples.

Background: The chemical characterization of metallic alloys and oxides is conventionally carried out by wet chemical analytical methods and/or instrumental methods. Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) is capable of analyzing samples nondestructively. As a part of a chemical quality control exercise, Zircaloys 2 and 4, nimonic alloy, and zirconium oxide samples were analyzed by two INAA methods. The samples of alloys and oxides were also analyzed by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and direct current Arc OES methods, respectively, for quality assurance purposes. The samples are important in various fields including nuclear technology. Methods: Samples were neutron irradiated using nuclear reactors, and the radioactive assay was carried out using high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry. Major to trace mass fractions were determined using both relative and internal monostandard (IM) NAA methods as well as OES methods. Results: In the case of alloys, compositional analyses as well as concentrations of some trace elements were determined, whereas in the case of zirconium oxides, six trace elements were determined. For method validation, British Chemical Standard (BCS)-certified reference material 310/1 (a nimonic alloy) was analyzed using both relative INAA and IM-NAA methods. Conclusion: The results showed that IM-NAA and relative INAA methods can be used for nondestructive chemical quality control of alloys and oxide samples.

제 4기 전곡현무암은 추가령 열곡대내의 한탄강유로를 따라 길게 분포하고 있으며 이대성 외 (1983)에 의하면 대략 10-20 m정도의 두께를 가지고 있다. 전곡현무암의 암석분화 과정을 밝히기 위해 57개의 시료가 채취 되었으며, 이중 16개의 시료에 대한 주성분 및 미량원소의 화학분석이 실시되었다. 분석된 시료들의 화학조성에 의하면 전곡현무암은 알칼리계열의 현무암으로 특징지워지며, MgO를 제외한 주성분원소의 변화범위가 미량원소에 비하여 상당히 좁은 영역을 나타낸다. 분별결정작용 모델을 정량적으로 시험하기 위해서 Multiple linear regression을 사용하였다. 주성분원소와 반정으로 산출되는 광물의 화학조성을 사용하여 계산된 결과는 전곡현무암의 화학조성의 변화는 감람석, 사장석, 휘석, 자철석이 56 : 25 : 17 : 2의 비율로 분별정출되어 분화된 것으로 설명할 수 있다. 그러나 위의 결과를 가지고 미량원소의 함량을 계산하면 불호정 (incompatible) 원소의 계산치는 딸암석의 실제 함량에 미치지 못한다. 이러한 점으로 미루어 전곡현무암의 화학조성의 변화는 광물들의 단순한 분별정출 작용만으로는 설명하기가 어렵다. 따라서 전곡현무암의 화학조성의 변화는 약간 다른 정도의 부분용융에 의해 불호정 원소의 초기치가 다른 것들이 분별정출과정을 겪었거나, 혹은 RTF과정에 의한 불호정원소의 부화가능성을 배제할 수 없음을 시사한다.

Ultra trace metal impurities of high-purity sulfuric acid for semiconductor process have been determined in the concentration of lower than ppb (ng/g) level using high resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (HR-ICP-MS).The acid samples were evaporated and concentrated by the factor of 20. No clement in the acids exceeded 1ppb level and most of the clements were determined below 10ppt (pg/g). Elements without spectral interference in mass spectrum, such as In, V, Mn, etc, were determined in the concentration of below 1 ppt level The recoveries in the range of 72% to 127.2% for 0.5 ppb spiked sample were obtained.

When relations improve between North and South Korea, there will be demand for North Korean edible plants because of the low labor cost and similar environmental conditions. However, there is no reliable information about trace elements, metals, and metalloids in edible plants from North Korea. Selenium (Se) and germanium (Ge) have positive effects on basic human health and are therapeutical in diverse illnesses. Metal and metalloid (Cd, Pb) poisoning, on the other hand, can cause many health problems. Plants collected from North Korea had higher selenium content than those from South Korea. Although none of the collected species exceeded the permissible levels of cadmium and lead, their content in plants was significantly higher in North Korea than in South Korea. The high metal contents in plants collected from North Korea may be associated with the soil physicochemical properties as well as the accumulated amounts of elements in the soil.

Minerals are individual of the components of foods and are not produced in the body but essential for best possible health. Several essential metals are vital for the appropriate performance of various enzymes, transcriptional factors and proteins that are essential in various biochemical paths. Metals like zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), and manganese (Mn) are cofactors of hundreds of enzymes. Zn is involved in the synthesis and secretion of insulin from the pancreatic ${\beta}-cells$. Chromium (Cr) increases the insulin receptors activity on target tissues, mainly in muscle cells. Insulin hormone is required to maintain the blood glucose amount in normal range. Continual increase of blood serum glucose level leads to marked chronic hyperglycemia or diabetes mellitus. Deficiency of insulin or its resistance, blood glucose level exceeds the upper limit of the common range of 126 mg/dl. Poor glucose control and diabetes changes the levels of essential trace elements such as Zn, Mg, Mn, Cr, iron etc. by rising urinary excretion and their related decrease in the blood. The aim of this article to discusses the important roles of essential trace elements in particular perspective of type 2 diabetes.

Due to the growing demand for bottled mineral waters, a study was undertaken to determine the quality of the twenty six brands of domestic and imported drinking waters. The quality of water was evaluated by analyzing the twenty four elements including minerals, essential and/or toxic trace elements, and the analytical items to affect the taste of water. The contribution of drinking water to the mineral nutrition of human was calculated in order to investigate the health effect of drinking water. The taste of water was evaluated in terms of minerals, anions, TDS, alkalinity, hardness and pH.
