Direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS) is one of the variants of ambient mass spectrometry. The ionization process of DART-MS is in open environment and only takes few seconds, so it is suitable for fast analysis. Actually, since its introduction in 2005, more and more attentions have been drawn to its various applications due to its excellent properties, e.g., fast analysis, and no or less sample preparation, high salt tolerance and so on. This review summarized the promising features of DART-MS, including its ionization mechanism, equipment modification, wide applications, coupling techniques and extraction strategies before analysis.

Suitable analytical procedures for the bulk analysis of ultra-trace amounts of uranium and plutonium have been developed using multi-collector inductively coupled mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS). The quantification and determination of the isotopic ratios of uranium and plutonium in three simulated swipe samples, a swipe blank, and a process blank were performed to validate the analytical performance. The analytical results for the simulated swipe samples were in good agreement with the certified values, based on the measurement quality goals for the analysis of bulk environmental samples recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)

The main active components of Panax ginseng are ginsenosides. Ginsenoside Rb1 and Rg1 are accepted as marker substances for quality control worldwide. The analytical methods currently used to detect these two compounds unfairly penalize steamed and dried (red) P. ginseng preparations, because it has a lower content of those ginsenosides than white ginseng. To manufacture red ginseng products from fresh ginseng, the ginseng roots are exposed to high temperatures for many hours. This heating process converts the naturally occurring ginsenoside Rb1 and Rg1 into artifact ginsenosides such as ginsenoside Rg3, Rg5, Rh1, and Rh2, among others. This study highlights the absurdity of the current analytical practice by investigating the time-dependent changes in the crude saponin and the major natural and artifact ginsenosides contents during simmering. The results lead us to recommend (20S)- and (20R)-ginsenoside Rg3 as new reference materials to complement the current P. ginseng preparation reference materials ginsenoside Rb1 and Rg1. An attempt has also been made to establish validated qualitative and quantitative analytical procedures for these four compounds that meet International Conference of Harmonization (ICH) guidelines for specificity, linearity, range, accuracy, precision, detection limit, quantitation limit, robustness and system suitability. Based on these results, we suggest a validated analytical procedure which conforms to ICH guidelines and equally values the contents of ginsenosides in white and red ginseng preparations.

The charge transfer rate in polypyrrole(PPy) electropolymerized within poly(acrylonitrile-co-butadiene)(PAB) was compared with that in PPy deposited Pt electrodes by using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and chronopotentiometry in acetonitrile. For both electrodes anodic and cathodic peak currents were proportional to scan rates below 100 mV/sec, but to square root of scan rates beyond 200 mV/sec. The apparent diffusion coefficient of $ClO{_4}^-$ in the PPy/PAB composite is estimated to be 1.6 times larger than that in PPy. The PPy films composited within PAB layer showed higher anodic and cathodic currents and possessed faster charging-discharging process and larger capacity.

감응제인 rose bengal과 초감응제인 allylthiourea를 포함하고 있는 광전기화학 전지를 이용하여 태양에너지를 전기에너지로 변환시킬 때, 광전류가 지속성이 없는 원인을 규명하기 위하여, 광조사 전후의 염료 용액을 형광 및 흡수 분광법으로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 감응제와 초감응제 사이에 광촉매 이합체화 반응이 일어나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 이합체를 구성하는 각 분자의 기하학적 쌍극자 배열은 사각임을 확인하였다.

The transfer of chloride ion across an anion exchange membrane (AEM) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectra. In CV experiment, when the size of the hole in membrane was much smaller than the distance between membrane holes, the Cl anion transfer showed steady state voltammetric behavior. Each hole in membrane can be regarded as a microelectrode and the membrane was equivalent to a microelectrode array in this condition. When the hole in membrane was large or the distance between membrane holes was small, the CV curve of the Cl anion transfer across membrane showed peak shape, which attributed to linear diffusion. In ac impedance measurement, the impedance spectrum of the membrane system was composed of two semicircles at low de bias, corresponding to the bulk characteristics of the membrane and the kinetic process of ion transfer, respectively. The bulk membrane resistance increases with increasing dc bias and only one semicircle was observed at higher dc bias. The parameters related to kinetic and membrane properties were discussed.

이산화우라늄을 질산 및 미량의 불산으로 녹인 다음 우라늄 매트릭스로부터 규소를 분리하지 않고 분광광도계(spectrophotometer)로 측정할 수 있는 분석조건을 검토하였다. 분광광도계로 미량의 규소를 측정할 때 미량의 불산이 규소 분석에 미치는 영향을 조사하였으며, 불산의 간섭을 방지하기 위하여 붕산을 사용하였다. 우라늄 용액에서 미량의 불산이 존재할 경우 포화붕산 사용 유무에 따른 규소의 회수율은 각각 $103.3{\pm}0.8$ 및 $76.6{\pm}6.8%$이었다. 포화붕산의 양은 규소의 회수율에 크게 영향을 미치지 않았다. 따라서 본 방법으로 이산화우라늄 분말 중의 불순물로 존재하는 미량의 규소를 분리 과정없이 바로 UV-VIS 분광광도법으로 정량할 수 있었다.

Bromate is a disinfection by-product generated mainly from the oxidation of bromide during the ozonation and disinfection process in order to remove pathogenic microorganism of drinking water, and classified as a possible human carcinogen by International Agency for Research of Cancer (IARC) and World Health Organization (WHO). For the purpose of determining the trace level concentration of bromate, several sensitive techniques are applied mostly based on suppressed conductivity detection and UV/Visible detection after postcolumn reaction (PCR). In this study, the suppressed conductivity detection method and the PCR-UV/Visible detection method through the triiodide reaction were compared to analyze the trace bromate in water samples and estimated for the availability of these analytical methods. In addtion, the state-of-the-art techniques was applied for the determination of trace level bromate in various water matrices, i.e., soft drinking water, hard drinking water, mineral water, swimming pool water, and raw water. In comparison of two analytical methods, it was found that the conductivity detection had the suitable advantage to simultaneously analyze bromate and inorganic anions, however, the bromate might not be precisely quantified due to the matrix effect especially by chloride ion. On the other hand, the trace bromate was analyzed effectively by the method of PCR-UV/Visible detection through triiodide reaction to satisfactorily minimize the matrix interference of chloride ion in various water samples, showing the good linearity and reproducibility. Furthermore, the method detection limit (MDL) and recovery were 0.161 ㎍/L and 101.0-108.1 %, respectively, with a better availability compared to conductivity detection.
