Angelicae gigantis radix is the root of the perennial plant, which belongs to the family Umbelliferae. However, this herbal drug is represented quite different chemical components according to its different genus name, though other herbal drugs (i.e. Leonuri Herba, Xanthii Fructus and so on) show similar constituents on the same name. The root of Angelica gigas containing the coumarin compounds is commonly used in Korea, while Angelica sinensis and Angelica acutiloba including phthalide compounds are used in China and Japan, respectively as Angelicae gigantis radix. In this paper, a nearinfrared spectroscopic method was developed to determine genus name of Angelica spp., especially A. gigas and A. sinensis which are commonly misused in herbal markets. X-ray fluorescence spectrometry and electronic nose have been also applied as nondestructive methods to discriminate A. gigas from A. sinensis according to their specific properties.

Generalized 2D correlation spectroscopy has been applied extensively to the analysis of spectral data sets obtained during the observation of a system under some external perturbation. It is used in various fields of spectroscopy including IR, Raman, UV, fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) as well as chromatography. 2D hetero-spectral correlation analysis compares two completely different types of spectra obtained for a system under the same perturbation. Because of the wide range of applications of this technique, it has become one of the standard analytical techniques for the analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, biochemistry, and so on, and for studies of polymers, biomolecules, nanomaterials, etc. In this paper, we will introduce the principle of generalized 2D correlation spectroscopy and its applications that we have studied.

This study aims at making a research into the physical and chemical properties of the neolithic era potterys, which are unearthed from Gosanli, Sagaeli, Bukchonli, Samyangdong and Gonaili districts in Cheju Island, by using X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence spectrometer and Mossbauer spectroscopy. This results are as follows. The principal component of five plain coarse pottery sherds by X-ray fluorescence spectrometer and X-ray diffraction spectrum at the room temperature is silicate mineral which is equal to SiO$_2$, and they also have a little magetite, hematite and goethite. The most existent Fe is Fe$\^$+3/ through Mossbauer spectroscopy analysis of plain coarse pottery sherds and it is presumed that the magnetic hyperfine splitting caused this result. The ratio of Fe$\^$2+//(Fe$\^$2+/+Fe$\^$3+/) is mostly zero by Mossbauer spectrum at the room temperature of plain coarse pottery sherds and it is thought because they were fired in the atmosphere.

Total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation source called as TRSFA was explored to achieve high sensitivities to impurity metals on Si wafer surface. It consists of monochromating part to select a specific wavelength, slit part to shield direct beam and to control monochromated beam, and main chamber to dectect fluorescent X-ray counts of impurities on si wafer. Monochromated X-ray of 10.90 KeV was selected and the optimum total reflection condition on silicon wafer was obtained through tuning the dead time and fluorescent X-ray count of Si and Fe. TRSFA system could increase the sensitivity as high as 50 times in comparision with TRXFA using normal X-ray source. But the trend was varied since the surface conditions of Si wafers and, therefore, the reflectivities were different. Furthemore, there seems to be a promising path to reaching a detection limit useful to the next generation metal impurities control, because Fe impurity below to the $5\times10^{9}\textrm{atomas/cm}^2$ can be detectable through the developed TRSFA system.

This study was conducted to identify the geographical origin of soybeans in Cheonggukjang by analyzing its organic components and inorganic elements with Fourier transform near-infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIRS) and with energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) coupled with multivariate statistical analysis. For method development, 280 samples from various regions were collected and analyzed. The discriminant accuracy for the developed methods was 97.5% for FT-NIRS and 98.0% for ED-XRF with multivariate statistical analysis. A validation test confirmed the discriminant accuracy to be 96.3% for FT-NIRS and 95.0% for ED-XRF. Overall, the results showed that methods using FT-NIRS and ED-XRF could be used to identify the geographical origin of Cheonggukjang.

To conserve historic textiles, analyses of textile materials, pollutants and deterioration are prerequisite steps. Based upon analytical results, guides for conservation of historic textiles are established. In analyses of textile materials, pollutants and deterioration, there are chemical methods(burning, solubility and staining), physical methods(microscopy and density) and instrumental analysis(Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Fourier Transform Raman Spectroscopy(FT-Raman), Gas Chromatography(GC), Mass Spectroscopy(MS), X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF, WDXRF), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy(EDS), and X-Ray Diffraction(XRD), Tensile Testing Machine etc.). Combination of qualitative and quantitative analyses makes accurate diagnosis of textile condition possible. As examples of analyses and conservation of historic textiles, Chuninsan(19 century) similar to sunshade with handing down historic textile and golden decorative skirt(17 century) with excavated costume are taken.

Fe compounds of scoria distributed in northern area of Jeju island are investigated using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, and $^{57}Fe$ Mossbauer spectroscopy. The samples were prepared from four parasite volcanos. These samples consist of the typical basalt comprised of $SiO_2,\;Al_2O_3$, Fe compounds, and silicate minerals. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra showed doublets for olivine, pyroxene, and ilmenite as well as sextets for hematite and magnetite. The valence state of Fe is chiefly a 3+ charge state with a little 2+ charge state. It is expected that this results will add to the body of information related to the information mechanism of Jeju island. The geochemistry for these samples is the same results to mid-mountain's samples in Jeju Island.

This is a short review article of our recent studies on the ATP-induced, allosteric conformational transition of the chaperonin GroEL complex by solution X-ray scattering. We used synchrotron X-ray scattering with a two-dimensional, charge-coupled, device-based X-ray detector to study (1) the specificity of the chaperonin GroEL for its ligand that induced the allosteric transition, and (2) the identification of the allosteric transition of GroEL in its complicated kinetics induced by ATP. Due to the dramatically increased sensitivity of the X-ray scattering technique based on the use of the two dimensional X-ray detector and synchrotron radiation, different allosteric conformational states of GroEL populated under different conditions were clearly distinguished from each other. It was concluded that solution X-ray scattering is an extremely powerful tool for investigating the equilibrium and kinetics of cooperative conformational transitions of oligomeric protein complex, especially when combined with other spectroscopic techniques such as fluorescence spectroscopy.

황토는 대표적인 천연 무기염재의 일종으로서 바람에 의해 운반되어 퇴적된 담황색 내지는 황회색을 띠는 실트질의 퇴적물을 일컫는다. 황토의 구성물질은 주로 석영, 장석, 산화철광물, 깁사이트 등의 여러 가지 점토광물을 포함하는데, 주로 적색을 띠는 것은 소량의 산화철 광물에 기인되는 경우가 많으며 황토를 구성하는 점토광물로는 버미큘라이트, 카오린 광물인 캐올리나이트와 할로이사이트, 일라이트 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 면직물에 천연 무기염재인 황토를 사용한 염색시에 황토 단독염색과 콩즙 전처리 후 황토염색으로 나누어 염색을 실시하고, 원료 황토와 황토염색 후 면직물에 부착된 성분 간에 차이가 있는지를 확인하기 위해 X선 형광분석(X-ray fluorescence analysis, XRF)을 이용하여 염색 전.후 황토의 성분을 분석하였고, X선 회절분석(X-ray diffraction analysis, XRD)을 이용하여 황토 및 염색 전 후 면직물에 부착된 광물질의 주성분을 분석하였으며, energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS)가 장착된 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 면직물에 부착된 광물의 성분을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 황토로 면직물을 염색하는 경우 면직물에 부착되는 황토의 양과 K/S 값은 거 의 비례하여 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 황토 염색 후 면직물에 부탁되는 주성분은 주로 SiO$_2$, A1$_2$O$_3$, Fe$_2$O$_3$등인 것으로 나타났으며, X선 회절분석과 EDS분석에 의해 캐올리나이트, 일라이트 등의 점토광물의 형태로 존재하는 것이 확인되었다.
