Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) are various applied as chelating agents for metal ions, then they are widely used in many industrial processes and domestic products. A method is described for the determination of EDTA and NTA in water samples by GC/MS . The reaction temperature, reaction time and pH for esterification of EDTA and NTA were investigated using 10% sulfuric acid-methanol, ethanol and propanol. Optimum conditions were obtained by the esterification in 80$\^{C}$ for 1hr with ethanol. Method detection limits of ethylated EDTA and NTA in the 200 ml of water samples were 0.05 ng/ml, respectively, EDTA and NTA could be determined in the range of 0.05∼23.6 and 0.05∼7.0 ng/ml in treated water, and in the range of 0.06∼25.0 and 0.05∼6.40 ng/ml in raw water respectively. Risk assessments with EDTA and NTA exposure by drinking water ingestion were carried out. Based on the results of analysis, chronic daily intakes of EDTA and NTA would be less than the value of acceptable daily intake or tolerable daily intake.

This research was investigated which denitrification of wastewater containing nitrate, using upflow anaerobic sludge blanket process. The upflow anaerobic sludge blanket process is also used for both artifical and industrial wastewater. Main ingredients investigated in the artifical and industrial wastewater experiment were the determination of optimum organism/nitrate ratios, nitrate removal efficiency by various hydrogen donor addition and characteristics of granular sludge and gas production in case of various hydrogen donor addition. From the experimental results the following conclusions were made: In case of adding methanol, ethanol and sodium acetate as hydrogen donor granular sludge was formed 50 days after seeding. Average diameter of granular sludge was 4.0 mm and settling velocity was 37 cm/min. Production rate of gas 3.3 L/d in case of adding methanol as hydrogen donor in wastewater containing 150mg/L nitrate. However adding ethanol and sodium acetate as hydrogen donor, gas production rate were 2.2-2.7L/d respectively. In case of adding methanol as hydrogen donor treatability of artifical wastewater contained 150mg/L as nitrate was about 93%. But in addition of sodium acetate in wastewater contained 40mg.L as nitrate, nitrate removal efficiency was 80%.

Groundwater contamination by nitrate exceeding water quality criteria (10 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/L$) occurs frequently. Fumarate, acetate, formate, lactate, propionate, ethanol, methane and hydrogen gas were evaluated for their nitrate removal efficiencies and removal rates for in situ bioremediation of nitrate contaminated groundwater. Denitrification rate for each substrate was in the order of: fumarate > hydrogen > formate/lactate > ethanol > propionate > methanol > acetate. Microcosm studies were performed with fumarate and acetate. When fumarate was used as a substrate, nitrate was removed 100 percent with rate of 0.66 mmol/day while conversion rate from nitrate to nitrogen gas or another by-product was 87 percent. 42 mg of fumarate was needed to remove 30 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/L$. When using acetate as carbon source, 31 percent of nitrate was removed during initial adjustment period. Among removed fraction, however, 83 percent of nitrate removed by cell growth. Overall nitrate removal rate was 0.37 mmol/day. Acetate showed longer lag time in consumption compared to that of nitrate, which implying that acetate would be better carbon source compared to fumarate as more amount was utilized for nitrate removal than cell growth.

알코올 함량을 보다 신속하고 정확하게 측정하고자, 알코올 센서를 사용하였다. Alcohol oxidase를 glutaraldehyde로 nylon net에 고정화시킨 다음 산소전극에 연결하여 기질과의 반응에서 소모되는 용존산소 소비량의 변화를 용존산소측정기로 측정하여 알코올을 정량하였다. 알코올 센서의 최적조건에서 시판되는 각종 주류를 측정해 본 결과, 각각 맥주는 $4{\sim}5%$, 저알코올성 음료는 0.71%, 포도주는 10.06%, 청주는 16.12%, 소주는 25.71%, 탁주는 6.18%로 정량되었으며, 이는 가스 크로마토그래피로 측정한 값과 좋은 상관관계를 가졌다.

본 연구에서는 근적외선 분광분석법 (NIR)을 이용하여 메탄올과 에탄올 혼합액 중의 물의 함량을 비파괴적으로 측정하였다. Photo-diode array 방식의 휴대용 NIR system과 scanning 방식의 NIR spectrometer를 이용하여 두 기기 사이의 calibration 결과를 비교하였다. 알코올 혼합액 중의 물의 함량을 정량분석 하기 위해 부분최소자승회귀분석법 (PLSR : partial least squares regression)을 사용하였다. 그 결과 SEP (standard error of prediction)가 photo-diode array 방식을 사용하였을 때는 0.10%, scanning 방식을 사용하였을 때는 0.12%였다. Calibration 모델의 안정성을 확인하기 위하여 6일 동안 2%의 메탄올을 함유하고 있는 에탄올 용액 중의 물의 함량이 3%, 5% 및 7% 되도록 시료를 조제하여 측정하였다. 두 가지 방식의 NIR 모두 3%이내의 변동계수 (CV : coefficient of variation)로 좋은 결과를 나타내었다. 이번 연구를 통해서 메탄올과 에탄올 혼합액 중의 물의 함량 측정이 근적외선 분광분석법을 이용하여 성공적으로 수행되었고 photo-diode array 방식의 휴대용 NIR 시스템을 이용해서 scanning 방식의 NIR spectrometer를 이용한 결과와 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

본 실험의 목적은 frontal analysis(FA)와 pluse input method(PIM) 방법으로 흡착분리공정에 있어서 중요한 전 단계의 하나인 등온흡착식을 결정하는데 있다. FA를 수행하기에 앞서 대상물질이었던 loxoprofen의 용해도를 측정하여 hexane/ethanol=95/5일 때 시료의 농도를 $0.2{\sim}3mg/ml$로 결정하고, pH조정을 위한 acetic acid는 0.5%로 결정하였다. 이동상의 주성분인 hexane의 조성이 증가함에 따라 용해도는 감소하였지만 분리도는 증가하는 경향을 확인하였다. 이런 용해도와 분리도 사이의 trade-off 또한 흡착분리과정에서의 조작변수가 될 수 있음을 의미한다. FA로 구한 이성분계 등온흡착식은 $$C_{S,re}=\frac{5.282C_{M,re}}{1+0.1412C_{M,re}+0.2139C_{M,ex}}$$, $$C_{S,ex}=\frac{6.413C_{M,ex}}{1+0.2139C_{M,ex}+0.1412C_{M,re}}$$로 결정하였고, PIM으로 구한 이성분계 등온흡착식은 $$C_{S,re}=\frac{5.245C_{M,re}}{1+0.1667C_{M,re}+0.2054C_{M,ex}}$$, $$C_{S,ex}=\frac{6.061C_{M,ex}}{1+0.2054C_{M,ex}+0.1667C_{M,re}}$$로 결정 하였다.

각 체질군(태양인 5명, 태음인 10명, 소양인 10명, 소음인 10명)을 대상으로 혈액을 채취하여 면역세포를 분리한 후 각 곡류(백미, 현미, 보리, 찹쌀) 추출물을 투여하여 체질에 따른 면역 활성 효능(proliferation, NO production, TNF-${\alpha}$ concentration)을 조사한 결과, 백미, 현미, 찹쌀 추출물은 음인 체질군에서 양인 체질군에 비해 높은 면역활성을 보인 반면, 보리 추출물에서는 음인 체질군에 비해 양인 체질군에서 높은 면역활성을 보였다. 이와 같이 곡류 추출물이 각 체질군에서 면역활성 차이를 보이는 것은 곡류 자체에 기인하는 것도 있겠지만, 곡류가 가지고 있는 고유한 특이 성분 차이에 의한 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 본 연구 결과, 체질에 영향을 미치는 곡류의 각 성분을 조사하여 과학적으로 규명한다면 새로운 체질 적합형 식품 개발이 가능하리라 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to establish valerenic acid as a marker compound for the standardization of ethanol extract of Valerinan officinalis (valerian) root as a functional health food. We established valerenic acid as a marker compound using HPLC. HPLC was used to quantify the marker compound in the valerian extract after validation of methods with linearity, accuracy, and precision. The specificity for retention time was met by comparative analysis of the valerian extract and standard compound using HPLC. The method showed high linearity of the calibration curve with a coefficient of correlation ($R^2$) of 0.9999. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was $10{\mu}g/mL$. The accuracy of measurement was 99.88~00.68% and the relative standard deviation (RSD) value was 0.59%. In addition, our analytical method yielded a 29% mean content of valerenic acid in the valerian ethanol extract. These results indicate that the established HPLC method facilitated the determination of marker compounds in the valerian extract for the standardization of health functional foods.

Objectives : The effects of ethanol extract of Plantago asiatica L. were investgated on adipocyte differentiation, lipopogenesis, lipolysis and apoptosis using differnentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Methods : Plantago asiatica L. was extracted with ethanol (CCE). We carried on MTT assay for cell proliferation, Oil Red O staining for determination of cell differentiation and intracelluar adipogenesis. TUNEL staining assay for cell apoptosis, and Western blot analysis for measurement of pAMPK and pACC, $C/EBP{\alpha}$, $PPAR{\gamma}$ protein expressions were performed. Results : The addition of CCE up to 0.2 mg/ml into cell culture media showed no cytotoxicity. Treatment of 0.2 mg/ml CCE significantly inhibited differentiation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Lipid accumulation of the CCE treated cells was decreased compared with that of control. Induction of cell apoptosis was increased in CCE treated cells compared with that of control. AMPK and ACC levels of the cells with 0.2 mg/ml CCE were led to phosphorylation and also expressions of $C/EBP{\alpha}$ and $PPAR{\gamma}$, as adipogenic transcription factors, were suppressed compared with those of control. Conclusions : Taken together, these results provide evidence that CCE has a regulatory role in lipid metabolism that is related to differentiation into adipocytes, adipogenesis and apoptosis.
