Bioaccumulation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides was studied in sediment dwelling bivalves, Manila clams (Ruditapes philippinarum), collected from the midwestern coast of Korea. As witnessed by the dominance of tetra- to penta-chlorinated congeners in sediments and the penta- to hexa-chlorinated congener dominance in clams, the profile of PCBs in the sediments and Manila clams differed. Lipid and organic carbon-normalized biota-sediment accumulation factors (BSAFs) were determined for organochlorine pesticides. BSAFs of $\beta$-hexachlorocyclohexane ($\beta$-HCH) and $\Sigma$DDTs were in the range of 0.06~1.36 and 0.31~1.06. No clear relationships were found between BSAFs of $\Sigma$DDTs in Manila clams and the concentrations of DDTs in the associated sediment. The accumulated PCBs and organochlorine pesticides were compared in Manila clams and oysters (Crassostrea gigas) collected from 3 sites. Highly chlorinated PCBs were more commonly found in oyster tissues than in clam tissues. The reasons for the different accumulation pattern of organic pollutants in the two organisms are discussed.

Organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been used intensively in agriculture and industry for a long time. They belong to a group of contaminants whose occurrence in the environment is a serious concern to environmental chemists and toxicologists due to their resistance to degradation in the environment as well as their potential toxicity. Also. the lipophilic characteristics of these substances are responsible for their ability to bioaccumulate in tissues and organs rich in lipids of men and animals through food chain. Therefore, the measure of the levels of organochlorine pesticides and PCBs in human tissues are good markers in detemining the extent to exposure and evaluating the hazards. This study was preformed to compare concentrations of organochlorine pesticides(${\alpha}-BHC, {\beta}-BHC, {\gamma}-BHC, {\delta}-BHC$, p.p'-DDT,p.p'-DDD,p.p.'-DDE. endrin. dieldrin. aldrin) and seven marker PCBs(PCB nos. 28. 52. 101. 118. 138. 153. 180) in liver. kidney cortex, lung blood and adipose tissue collected at autopsies of 10men and 10 women using gas chromatography equipped with electron capture detector to express the data on a lipid adjusted basis. From the results, the significant differences in the levels of organochlorines of PCBs between sexes, districts where they had lived and ages were also investigated.

To assess the contamination status of organochlorine pesticides in the marine environment of Saemangeum, surface seawater and sediments were collected and analyzed. Organochlorine pesticides were widely distributed in the Saemangeum environment, with DDT, HCH and endosulfan II contamination being particularly prevalent. The overall concentrations of DDTs, HCHs, and endosulfan II in surface seawater were in the rage of 0.03-0.65ng/l (mean value: 0.36ng/l), 1.31-4.54ng/l (2.63 ng/l), and not detected (ND)-0.96ng/l (0.49ng/l), respectively. Among the target organochlorine pesticides, endosulfan II showed the hi띤est level at the river mouth flowing into the Saemangeum. Additionally, its negative gradient from the rivers to the outside and a good correlation with $NO_3^-$ indicate that endosulfan ll inflows to the Saemangeum through the river; this conclusion is also supported by the elevated levels of endosulfan II in sediments at the river mouth. In sediment, the concentration of DDTs, HCHs, CHLs, and endosulfan II were in the range of 0.05-1.96 ng/g, 0.03-0.31ng/g, 0.01-0.13ng/g, and ND-0.62ng/g, respectively. Levels of contamination in Saemangeum are relatively lower than the median concentrations previously observed at the Korean coastal regions and sediment quality guidelines suggested by NOAA (Long et at. 1995).

During the period of March, 1976 to December, 1976, 48 raw milk samples were taken from dairy cows at 48 different dairy farms in Korea analyzed by gas liquid chromatography to determine the seasonal variation of the amount of organochlorine pesticide residues. At the same time 80 market milk, 10 beef and 10 pork samples were analyed by the same procedure for checking residual levels. The results were summarized as follows; 1. Milk samples from 17 dairy farms (36 per cent of tatal) were shown to be contaminated with various organochlorine pesticides. The residua lrate of ${\gamma}-BHC$ in tested samples were 44per cent (14 sam ples) that of aldrine was 28 per cent (9 samples) and those of pp'-DDT, dieldrin and heptachlor were 9.3 percent (3 samples) respectively. 2. In raw milk pp'-DDT, ${\gamma}-BHC$, aldrin, dieldrin and heptachlor were detected, and aldrin, dieldrin and heptachlor were detected in the market milk. Any kinds of organochlorine pesticides were not detected in beef samples but dieldrin and heptachlor were detected in pork samples. Average residual values of aldrin, dieldrin and heptachlor in the market milk were 0.0077 ppm (0.0000~1.1100 ppm), 0.0001ppm (0.0000~0.0500 ppm) and 0.0008 ppm (0.0000~2.0520 ppm), respectively, and those of dieldrin and heptachlor in pork samples were 0.0010 ppm (0.0000~0.0100 ppm) and 0.0033 ppm (0.0000~0.0330 ppm). respectively. 3. Residues of organochlorine pesticides in raw milk were extremely variable; in fact pp'-DDT was detected in milk samples from A, B, C and D districts and endrin was not detected from all districts. The ${\gamma}-BHC$ and dieldrin were detected at the district of A, C and D, aldrin at the districts of A and C and heptachlor at the districts of both A and D. 4. Seasonal trends of residual values of organochlorine pesticides were, in general, noticeable. The residual level was much higher in Spring than in other seasons and showed the tendeney of decrease from spring through summer and autumn generally; in the case of pp'-DDT average residual values were 0.0121 ppm in spring, 0.0022 ppm in summer and not detected in autumn. But in winter ${\gamma}-BHC$ and aldrin residues were increased a little. Residual values in raw milk (when cow are fed on hay and silage) were appeared higher in winter than the other seasons. 5. Residues of organochlorine pesticides in raw milk were not related in respect to hygienic conditions of dairy farms pp'-DDT and heptachlor were, in general, detected in all farms and aldrin was more detected in milk from well sanitated farms than poor sanitated ones.

많은 유기 염소계 농약들은 환경에서 매우 지속적이며, 먹이 사슬을 통해서 중요하게 생물학적으로 농축하는 경향이 있다. 농업에 적용되는 농약은 지표수의 유출이나 지하수의 흐름을 통해서 사실상 수 계로 이동되어지기 때문에 수환경에 특히 많은 영향을 끼치게 된다. 이 논문의 연구 목적은 두 가지 다른 휴믹산에 의한 유기 염소계 농약인 lindane과 dieldrin의 수중 용해도 증가에 중금속인 납 이온이 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 하는 것이다. 또한 유기 염소계 농약이 두 가지 혼합물로 존재할 때 각각의 용해도에 서로의 상호작용에 대해서도 연구해 보고자 하였다. 휴믹산에 의한 lindane의 용해도 증가 정도는 거의 일정하였지만, 이에 비해 휴믹산에 의한 dieldrin의 수중 용해도 증가는 훨씬 증가함을 보여주었다. 또한 수중에 휴믹산과 납이 공존하면 dieldrin의 용해도는 납이 존재하지 않을 때보다 더욱 감소하였다.

Atmospheric concentrations of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in Seoul, South Korea between July 1999 and May 2000 were determined to investigate concentration distribution in air, relationship between concentrations and meteorological conditions, and apportionment of sources e.g. local sources (air- surface exchange) and long range transport. Endosulfan and $\alpha$-HCH were the highest concentrations in atmosphere with values typcally ranging from 10s to l00s of pg/㎥. These high concentrations may be attributed to their usage, period and chemical property (Koa). All OCPs also showed elevated levels during the summer and were positively correlated with temperature. This would suggest that a seasonal enhancement was due to (re)volatilization from secondary sources and application during the warmer months. The temperature dependence of atmospheric concentrations of OCPs were investigated using plots of the natural logarithm of partial pressure (In P) vs reciprocal mean temperatures (1/T), and environmental phase-transition energies were calculated for each of the pesticides. For OCPs, temperature dependence was statistically significant (at the 99.99% confidence level) and temperature accounted for 35~95% of the variability in concentrations. The relatively higher slopes and phase-transition energies for $\alpha$-, ${\gamma}$-chlordane, endosulfan and endosulfan sulfate suggested that volatilization from local sources influenced their concentrations. The relatively lower those for $\alpha$-, ${\gamma}$-HCH, p, p'-DDE and heptachlor epoxide also suggested that volatilization from local sources and long range transport influenced their concentrations.

Pesticide residues were extracted with 70% acetone and transferred to dichloromethane. Extracts were applied to open-column chromatography with florisil and alumina-N, The final extract was analyzed by gas chromatography with electron-capture detector(GC/ECD) and nitrogen-phosphorus detector(GC/NPD). Recoveries of the 17 organochlorine pesticides were ranged from 60.8 to 84.9% and those of 15 organophosphorus pesticides, from 70.5 to 100.0%(except phosmet and azinphos-methyl). The minimum detectable levels of this analytical method were low (0.021-0.058 mg/kg).

유기염소계 살충제들(organochlorine pesticides; OCPs)은 우리나라뿐만 아니라 세계적으로 농지(agricultural soils)에 많은 양이 사용되었다. 이들 성분들은 과거 10-30년전에 사용제한 및 금지되었지만, 여전히 대기중에서 상당한 수준의 농도들을 보이고, 지구적으로 계속 순환하고 있음이 보고되고 있다(Elizabeth et al., 1998). (중략)
