This study was designed to investigate the formation of ethyl carbamate (EC) during the ripening of Maesil with sugar and Soju (19.5~35% alcohol contents) using a homemade method. Maesil, sugar and Soju were purchased at ordinary market in June of 2012. The preparation of sample for analysis was conducted by method of Henry et al. The analysis of GC/MS was used SIM mode (m/z 89, 74, 62). Quantification was performed in terms of the 62 ion and was based on an internal standard procedure. Good linearity was obtained with a regression coefficient ($r^2$ = 0.993). Low detection limits (LOD) was achieved 4.31 ug/kg and recovery for alcohol was 74.8%. During 90 days, fermentation with sugar was not detected EC (under LOQ). 15 days ripened Maesil wine contained EC between non detected~32.7 ug/kg and 90 days ripened Maesil wine was 19.7~87.4 ug/kg. Higher proportion of Maesil and Soju increased EC contents. EC levels were increased 32.7 ug/kg to 87.4 ug/kg in the ratio of Maesil to 35% alcohol-Soju (1:1). In the ratio of Maesil to 35% alcohol-Soju (1:3) was increased non detected to 69.7 ug/kg. After 90 days, Maesil wine was filtered Maesil through a seive and ripened by 180 days to investigate the formation of EC compared with non filtered. Treatment of filtered, EC contents was much higher level compared with non filtered. Therefore, this result showed that alcohol contents contribute to increase EC formation more than Maesil.

An analytical method for simultaneous and rapid determination of organophosphorus, organochlorine, carbamate, and pyrethroid pesticides in polished rice was developed. The analysis is performed by gas chromatograph with mass selective detector (GC/MSD) in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Pesticides were extracted from samples with acetone by automated Soxhlet apparatus and this extract was evaporated to dryness for the analysis. The residue was dissolved in hexane, followed by a treatment with a Sep-Pak florisil catridge. Pesticides were positively confirmed by GC/MS, retention times, and ion ratios. This analytical method allows a rapid, reliable, and a good recovery of hydrophilic pesticides. Except far captafol, captan, dichlofluanid and dichlorvos, recoveries of 42 pesticides were over 70%.
