연소 반응기를 이용하여 고분자 물질에 함유된 할로겐 원소인 브롬과 염소를 정량하기 위한 조건을 연구하였다. 염소농도 측정의 경우, Mohr법이나 전위차 적정법을 이용한 경우가 산-염기 적정법을 이용한 경우보다 분석 데이터 간 편차가 낮게 나타났다. 또한, 연소 반응기에서 단계별로 포집한 용액에 대한 염소와 브롬 측정 결과, 두 원소 모두 증류수를 흡수액으로 사용할 때, 0.3 M NaOH 수용액을 사용할 때보다 더 높은 회수율을 보였으며, 흡수액/세척액에서의 농도가 가스상의 형태로 배출되는 농도에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 브롬 함량을 측정할 때, 연소 반응기를 이용한 경우가 XRF나 연소-이온크로마토그래피를 이용한 경우에 비해 농도가 상대적으로 낮게 평가되는 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: In-situ water quality monitoring based on ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) is a promising technique because ISEs can be used directly in the medium to be tested, have a compact size, and are inexpensive. However, signal drift can be a major concern with on-line management systems because continuous immersion of the ISEs in water causes electrode degradation, affecting the stability, repeatability, and selectivity over time. In this study, a computer-based nitrate monitoring system including automatic electrode rinsing and calibration was developed to measure the nitrate concentration in water samples in real-time. Methods: The capabilities of two different types of poly(vinyl chloride) membrane-based ISEs, an electrode with a liquid filling and a carbon paste-based solid state electrode, were used in the monitoring system and evaluated on their sensitivities, selectivities, and durabilities. A feasibility test for the continuous detection of nitrate ions in water using the developed system was conducted using water samples obtained from various water sources. Results: Both prepared ISEs were capable of detecting low concentrations of nitrate in solution, i.e., 0.7 mg/L $NO_3-N$. Furthermore, the electrodes have the same order of selectivity for nitrate: $NO_3{^-}{\gg}HCO_3{^-}$ > $Cl^-$ > $H_2PO_4{^-}$ > $SO{_4}^{2-}$, and maintain their sensitivity by > 40 mV/decade over a period of 90 days. Conclusions: The use of an automated ISE-based nitrate measurement system that includes automatic electrode rinsing and two-point normalization proved to be feasible in measuring $NO_3-N$ in water samples obtained from different water sources. A one-to-one relationship between the levels of $NO_3-N$ measured with the ISEs and standard analytical instruments was obtained.

This study was undertaken to achieve a high bleaching efficacy with plasma, through longer application and reparative bleaching processes, by different shade evaluation methods. Extracted human teeth were divided into 6 groups (n=10). All teeth were treated in pairs. Low concentration of 15% carbamide peroxide (CP) was applied, with and without plasma, for 10, 20, and 30-min tooth bleaching, respectively. The bleaching procedure was repeated once daily for four days. The teeth were maintained in a moist environment provided by artificial saliva. The Vitapan Classical shade guide and Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIELAB) color system were collectively used to measure the bleaching efficacy. Color evaluation was statistically analyzed using Student t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) complemented by Tukey's test. Combining the plasma with 15% CP showed significantly greater color changes compared to bleaching without plasma (p<0.05). A high bleaching efficacy with plasma is proportional to the repetitive application and the treatment time. A 30-min application with plasma provided the best bleaching. Repetitive bleaching showed lower probability of color relapse of the bleached tooth. The color change by shade guide correlated with the changes in CIELAB color system. A value of 1 color change units (CCU) conversion factor for overall color change (${\Delta}E$) values comparisons was 3.724 values. The two measuring methods provide a more accurate correspondence of color change. The repetitive and longer application for tooth bleaching, combined with plasma, has a strong bleaching effect and produces whiter teeth.

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detection of antibodies to reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) at single serum dilution was standardized. REV HI, one of the Korean field isolates, was inoculated into chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells and was harvested from the culture fluids and cells after 10 to 12 days. Viruses were purified by centrifugation at the $107,000{\times}g$ for 12 hours on 20, 30, 45% (W/V) sucrose gradient. Virus specific fraction was collected and used as ELISA antigen. To standardize ELISA, the optimal concentration of coating antigen ($1{\mu}g/well$) and conjugate (1/1000) was determined by corrected OD (OD value of positive serum-OD value of negative serum) and P/N ratio (OD value of positive serum/OD value of negative serum). To calculate ELISA titer by measuring absorbance at 1/400 single serum dilution, serum titrations were carried out for various sample sera together with standard positive and negative sera. The observed titers of serum samples were plotted against sample/positive (s/p) ratios at 1/400 serum dilution. From the above data, the ELISA titers could be calculated by the equation of $log_{10}$ ELISA titer = 2.2763 ($log_{10}$ s/p) + 3.482 (r = 0.93). For evaluating the sensitivity, the standardized method were compared with conventional agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) test method using serum samples collected from REV infected field chicken flocks. Fifty seven of 60 samples (95%) were positive for REV by ELISA, whereas only 11 (18.3%) samples were positive by AGID test. This results suggested that the ELISA tests developed in this study could be used for detection of antibodies to REV with high sensitivity.

Recently a passive $NO_2$ samplers have been frequently used for the measurement of $NO_2$ concentration in the atmosphere because of its simplicity and high accuracy. But these samplers have a defect that the amount of $NO_2$ adsorbed is increased by wind. In this study, the inlet of sampler was covered with a draft shield made by 325 mesh stainless sieve to eliminate the effect. But it was expected that $NO_2$ diffusion was interrupted by the draft shield. In order to conform this phenomenon, samplers with and without draft shield were exposed to a box filled with 1-1.1ppm $NO_2$. The result indicated that draft shield nearly did not disturb $NO_2$ diffusion. To protect samplers from dust, sunshine, precipitation and vertical wind effects, these samplers were placed into a shelter during the field test. The data obtained in this study was compared with the data from the ambient air monitoring network. The coefficient of correlation(r) between the two data was 0.9995 for the test period of up to 35days. The results of this study indicate that the type of $NO_2$ samplers with draft shield in shelter used in this study can be used for measuring $NO_2$ concentrations in the ambient air relatively for a long period over 30 days.

The purpose of thesis was to investigate the removal efficiency of surfactants and commercial detergents by Oenanthe javanica that is one of aquatic plants in Korea. The experiment is concerned with measuring the concentrations of surfactants and commercial detergents in different media: 1) in pure water, 2) in water containing Oenanthe javanica, 3) in water containing Oenanthe javanica and commercial nutrients. The surfactants used in this research include linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS), $\alpha$-sulfo fatty acid methyl esters(MES), and alkylbenzene sulfonates(ABS). Two commercial detergents designated as A and B were in the forms of power and liquid. The results showed that LAS and MES were more effectively removed by Oenanthe javanica probably because these have a chain of linear carbon than on ABS with a branched carbon structure. In the case of commercial detergents, when the except was performed on the basis of surfactants proportion, the removal trends were similar to LAS and MES. The 5-day cultivating test with initial concentration of 0.5-1.0 ppm surfactants showed that less than 10% was removed if no nutrients an Oenanthe javanica were added. When Oenanthe javanica was added into the sample solution containing surfactants, the removal efficiency was increased 100% for the solution containing 0.5-1.0 ppm 60-70% for 5-10 ppm. In addition, chlorisis on Oenanthe javanica was observed due to surfactants and commercial detergents for all three cases. To test the dependence of population density on nutrients, the initial population density was made 300 g/0.4 m$^2$. Throughout the 5-day experiment, the on Oenanthe javanica grew 20-25% with 0.5-1.0 ppm without the synthetic nutrients but by 5% with a high concentrations of 5-10 ppm. The population density was appeared to be independent of synthetic nutrients. The leaves were to be grown with synthetic nutrients, while roots were grown without synthetic nutrients. Based on this research, the fundamental data concerning cultivation and an adequate adjustment of the water condition can provide for the utilization of Oenanthe javanica in real water treatment system.

선박에서 발생하는 질소산화물($NO_x$)을 측정하고 분석하는 방법은 $NO_x$ Technical Code 2008에 기재되어 있다. 코드를 만족하는 분석 방법으로는 화학 발광 분석법과 가열 화학 발광 분석법이 있다. 그러나 환원제로 $NH_3$가 사용되는 선택적 촉매 환원 분석 방법은 환원제로 인한 간섭 현상이 발생하여 측정 오차를 일으킨다. 본 연구에서는 화학 발광 분석방식의 여러 가지 가스와의 간섭 영향을 분석하고 어떤 특성을 가지는지 확인하였다. 그리고 푸리에 변환 적외석 분광 분석 장비 및 측정 방법을 통하여 비교하였다. 또한 측정 장비의 물리적 간섭 영향을 확인하기 위하여 측정 장비를 분해하여 확인하였다. 그 결과로써, 화학발광검출기기 내부에 발생한 백색 침전물과 수분이 간섭에 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 간섭의 영향을 최소화할 수 있는 $NO_x$ 측정 방법을 검토할 필요가 있다.

포화된 흙의 전기적인 특성은 흙 주위에 있는 간극수의 전기전도도에 크게 의존하므로, 흙의 전기전도도 변화를 이용하여 지반속으로의 오염물 침투를 감지하는데 널리 활용되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 포화시료에 대해 염분비와 납의 농도 변화에 따른 흙의 전기적 특성 변화를 조사하는 것이다. 전기저항과 시간영역반사법 신호측정을 위한 센서를 매설한 원통형 셀 내부에 담수 및 염분 농도 1%, 2% 그리고 3%의 염수용액을 0~10mg/L 사이의 6가지 납 표준용액과 혼합하여 수용액을 준비하였다. 이후 수용액 속에 건조시킨 모래시료를 수중강사법을 이용하여 조성하였다. 조성된 포화시료에 대해 셀 내부에 설치된 센서들로부터 전기저항과 시간영역반사법 신호를 측정하고 이 결과로부터 전기전도도를 산정하였다. 실험 결과, 주파수 1kHz에서 측정된 전기저항으로 부터 산정한 전기전도도는 납의 농도가 증가함에 따라 연속적으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났으므로 전기저항으로부터 산정한 전기전도도가 오염정도를 파악하기 위해 사용될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 시간영역반사법으로부터 산정한 전기전도도의 경우 저농도에서의 납의 농도 변화에도 전기전도도가 변화하지만, 납의 농도가 증가함에 따라 변화 정도는 점차 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 시간영역반사법은 중금속 누출여부를 조사하는데 적합한 것으로 평가되었다. 본 연구는 전기저항과 시간영역반사법의 상호보완적인 특성을 활용한다면 해안 및 해양환경에서도 중금속의 누출 및 오염을 감지할 수 있음을 보여준다.
