A pyrolysis gas-chromatographic method (Py-GC) was utilized for the identification as well as the content measurement of textile materials. Py-GC was applied to natural cotton fiber, synthetic polyester fiber, and their blended fabrics. The characteristic peaks originated from thermally decomposed products were observed, and the area of peak increased with the content of polyester. The products of pyrolized polyester were identified as benzoic acid terephthalic acid, and vinyl benzoic acid, which were characterized by mass spectrometry. This analytic method of offered a quantitative means to identify the content of cotton and polyester.

It is well known that the state of existence of molecules on the surface of water changes during compression of the molecules. Electric methods, such as the measurement of the surface potential or displacement current, are also useful for investigating dynamic changes of the molecular state on the water surface during compression. Maxwell-Displacement-Current(MDC) measuring technique has been applied to the study of monolayers of Arachidic acid and L-$\alpha$-Dimyristoyl Phosphatidylcholine(L-$\alpha$-DMPC). The displacement current was generated from monolayers on a water surface by monolayer compression. Displacement current was generated in the gas state, gas/liquid state, and liquid state in the course of monolayer compression. The researchers examined diplacement current of electric conduction organic monolayer generated due to orient change of monolayers alkylchain.

The wastewater treatment with a two-phase expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) system for anaerobic degradation of acetate, benzoate, terephtalate and p-toluate from purified terephtalic acid (PTA) production was studied. The feasibility and effectiveness of the system was evaluated in terms of organic oxidation by chemical oxygen demand (COD), gas production, bacterial adaptability and stability in the granular sludge. Average removal efficiencies 93.5% and 72.7% were achieved in the EGSB reactors under volumetric loading rates of $1.0-15kg-COD/m^3/day$ and terephtalate and p-toluate of 351-526 mg/L, respectively. Gas production reached total methane production rate of 0.30 L/g-COD under these conditions in the sequential EGSB reactor system. Higher strength influent COD concentration above 4.8 g-COD/L related to field conditions was fed to observe the disturbance of the EGSB reactors.

Such carboxyl drugs as mefenamic acid, alclofenac, ketoprofen, cicloxilic acid and tolfenainic acid in rat plasma were determined by the gas chromatography flame photometric detector (GC-FPD). After methylthiomethyl (MTM) esterification with MTM-chloride in 1, 8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU) catalyst, determination of these drugs by this method was tried and compared with that by the GC-flame ionization detector (FID) method in respect to sensitivity and effect of inteferences. The results showed it was possible to analyze with accuracy by this method because of specificity of the FPD, although these drugs were not separated from interferences in plasma on GC column. The GC-FPD method was more sensitive than GC-FID method and the minimum detectable amount of monocarboxylic drugs on 3%, QF-1 column was about 15fmol/injection.

Current was generated from monolayers on a air/water surface by monolayer compression, and the measuring technique has been applied to the study on monolayers of Arachidic acid and the range of gas state, gas/fuid state and fluid state in the course of monolayer compression. Also, we measured that compression veloecity(30, 40, 50mm/min) when the sample's spread volume was about $500{\mu}{\ell}$ of sample. From the result, it is known that current is generated in the range of high surface pressures as compression velocity become faster.

A gas chromatographic method is described for the determination of volatile free acids(VFAs) in body fluids. VFAs were trace enriched from body fluids by liquid-solid extraction using Chromosorb P as the solid sorbent and ether as the eluant. The enriched VFAs were injected in splitless injection mode onto a HP-20M fused silica capillary column. The flame ionization detector was used as the detector. The present method was applied to the profiling of VFAs in body fluids from patients suffering from the infectious disease, hepatitis. The VFAs concentrations were high in saliva of hepatitis patients and isobutyric acid detected in sera of hepatitis patients compared to healthy subjects.

The gas chromatographic behavior of optically active N-(N-benzoyl-L-valyl)-anilide used as stationary phase is described. N-(N-benzoyl-L-valyl)-anilide has been synthesized with good yield under mild condition via Schotten-Bauman process and coated on the Chromosorb W AW (80-100mesh) for the purpose of enantiomer separation. The behavior of this compound as optically active stationary phase for the separation of the enantiomers of N-TFA-D, L-amino acid isopropyl esters has been examined with respect to the correlation between the separation factors and column temperatures. All amino acid enantiomers examined were eluted within one hour and the elution pattern showed retention times increasing in the order of alanine, valine, leucine, threonine, proline and methionine.

In this study, the volatile compounds in 9 commercial fermented soybean pastes were extracted and analyzed by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), respectively. A total of 63 volatile components, including 21 esters, 7 alcohols, 7 acids, 8 pyrazines, 5 volatile phenols, 3 ketones, 6 aldehydes, and 6 miscellaneous compounds, were identified. Esters, acids, and pyrazines were the largest groups among the quantified volatiles. About 50% of the total quantified volatile material was contributed by 5 compounds in 9 soybean paste samples; ethyl hexadecanoate, acetic acid, butanoic acid, 2/3-methyl butanoic acid, and tetramethyl-pyrazine. Three samples (CJW, SIN, and HAE) made by Aspergillus oryzae inoculation showed similar volatile patterns as shown in principal component analyses to GC-MS data sets, which showed higher levels in ethyl esters and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol. Traditional fermented soybean pastes showed overall higher levels in pyrazines and acids contents.

Acid catalyzed hydrolysis of 1-phenoxyethyl propionate, Ⅰ, has been studied using the PM3 method in the gas phase. The first step of the reaction is the protonation of basic sites, three different oxygens in Ⅰ, producing three protonated species Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ. All possible reaction pathways have been studied from each protonated structure. Changes in the reaction mechanisms have also been discussed from the results obtained by varying a nucleophile from a water monomer to a water dimer to a complex between one water molecule and an intermediate product (propionic acid or phenol) produced in the preceding unimolecular dissociation processes. Minimum energy reaction pathway is 2-W among the possible pathways, in which water dimer acts as an active catalyst and therefore facilitates the formation of a six-membered cyclic transition state. Lower barrier of 2-W is ascribed to an efficient bifunctional catalytic effect of water molecules. PM3-SM3.1 single point calculations have been done at the gas-phase optimized structure (SM3.1/PM3//PM3) to compare theoretical results to those of experimental work.

The verification of genuine sesame oil can be examined by determination of the ratio of fatty acid. Fatty acids were extracted from the saponifiable substance of sesame oils. Fatty acids were methylated with the 14% boron trifluoride methanol solution and injected into a gas chromatograph with Unisole 3000 column and finally determined the molecular weight by mass spectrometry. The fatty acids in laboratory prepared sesame oils were composed mainly of oleic acid 36.7-42.8% and linoleic acid 39.0-46.6%, including palmitic acid 7.9-9.l%, stearic acid 4.1-5.6%, linoleic acid 0.1-3.0%, arachidic acid 0.5-1.0% and eicosenoic acid 0.1-0.5%. The above results allow the estimation of genuine sesame oil, mixed with rape seed oil, soybean oil, perilla oil, etc. In 53 samples, 14 samples were estimated as genuine and it was found that erucic acid was contained in 31 samples, linoeic acid was highly contained in 14, high quantity of linolenic acid was in 7 and palmitic and oleic acid were highly involved in 3.
