The regulation of Material safety data sheets(MSDS) was required for the chemicals in use in the workplace from July 1976. Under the provisions of the workplace hazardous materials information system, employers in Korea must be provided with accurate and comprehensive MSDS. To examine the reliability of MSDS for organic solvents, 63 organic solvents and MSDS were collected from the workplace of 39 companies located in Kyonggi province. Manufacture\`s MSDS were compared with the actual composition of the collected samples, and further examined the reliability by checking whether the chemicals analyzed were included in the MSDS correctly. 38 solvents were able to analyze their composition by gas chromatography-mass selective detector(GC-MSD). Among them, 28 solvents were incorrect in their composition and contents. In some case, health hazardous or carcinogenic chemicals which were not included in the MSDS were detected from samples. As a result of evaluating whether the MSDS correspond to the regulation required by Industrial Safety and Health Act (ISHA), the information in the MSDS including hazard classification, occupational exposure level, toxicity, regulatory information were incorrectly provided, and some MSDS did not disclose carcinogenic in their MSDS, and some MSDS were not written in the standard format. From this survey, continuous monitoring and promoting correct MSDS, and analyzing the components of the solvents were required to endure the reliability of MSDS for organic solvents.

The modification of CYP2El activity is a matter of considerable interest because of its role in the metabolic activation of a variety of environmental toxicants. In the present study, the time-course of changes in human CYP2El activities was determined following treatment with solvents (acetone, dimethylsulphoxide or pyridine) using intact HepG2 cells transfected by human CYP2El. Hydroxylation of chlorzoxazone was used for the measurement of CYP2El activity. CYP2E1 protein level was increased upon cultivation of cells in the presence of the solvents for 24 hr. Determination of CYP2El activities after 24 ht cultivation with the solvents demonstrated that acetone or dimethylsulphoxide increased, whereas pyridine inhibited the activities. This differential effect of the solvents on CYP2El activities persisted to subsequent 24 ht. Competitive inhibition study suggested that pyridine has stronger binding affinity to CYP2E1 than acetone or dimethylsulphoxide. These results demonstrate that different binding affinity of the solvents to CYP2El plays important role in determining real CYP2El activity in intact cells after exposure to the solvents. Present study would be helpful in precise understanding of human CYP2El-mediated toxicity.

Split-type nylon/polyester microfiber and polyester microfiber fabrics possess drapeability, softness, bulkiness, and smoothness, so that they can be applied in various industrial fields. In particular, these fabrics are able to absorb various organic solvents, and can be used as clean room materials. To investigate the chemical affinity between solvents and the compositional materials of these fabrics, the contact angle of thermally pressed film fabrics was measured with different solvents. The thermally pressed nylon/polyester fabric films showed a chemical attraction to formamide. The sorption properties of the microfiber fabrics were investigated using a real time testing device, and these tests showed that the sorption behavior was more influenced by the structure of the fibrous assembly than by any chemical attraction. The effect of the fabric density, specific weight, and sample structure on the sorption capacity and rate was examined for various organic solvents. The sorption capacity was influenced by the density and the specific weight of the fibrous assembly, and knitted fabric showed a higher sorption capacity than woven fabric. However, the sorption rate was less affected in lower viscosity solvents. On applying Poiseuille's Law, the lower viscosity solvents showed higher initial sorption rates, and more easily penetrated into the fibrous assembly.

Under ordinary atmospheric circumstances, the gravimetric technique was used to measure the solubility of L-cysteine (L-Cys) and L-alanine (L-Ala) in various solvents, including methyl alcohol, ethyl acetate, and mixtures of the two, in the range o 283.15 K to 323.15 K. Both individual solvents and their combinations showed a rise in the solubility of L-Cys and L-Ala with increasing temperature, according to the analyzed data but when analyzed at a constant temperature in the selected mixed solvents, the solubility declined with decreasing of initial mole fractions of methyl alcohol. To further assess, the relative utility of the four solubility models, we fitted the solubility data using the Jouyban-Acree (J-A), van't Hoff-Jouyban-Acree (V-J-A), Apelblat-Jouyban-Acree (A-J-A), and Ma models followed by evaluation of the values of the RAD information criteria and the RMSD were. The dissolution was also found to be an entropy-driven spontaneous mixing process in the solvents since the thermodynamic parameters of the solvents were determined using the van't Hoff model. In order to support the industrial crystallization of L-cysteine and L-alanine and contribute to future theoretical research, we have determined the experimental solubility, correlation equations, and thermodynamic parameters of the selected amino acids during the dissolution process.

Polyester filaments were dyed with disperse dye in dyebath containing water and water miscible organic solvents . acetone, 1,4-dioxane, DMF. In case of Acetone and 1,4-dioxane, the equilibrium dyeuptake was maximun at the volume fraction 0.05. The equilibrium dye uptakes were decreased as volun~e fraction of organic solvents were increased. When the volume fractions of water miscible organic solvents were varied, dye uptake was increased constantly with dyeing time. In dyebath containing water and water miscible organicsolvent, the dyeuptake was increased quickly during initial 40∼ 60 min. and slowly increased there after. The slope of Ct/Coo to t was greater in dyebath containing water and water miscible organic solvents than dyebath containing water. The differences of the slope with volulne fractions of water miscible organic solvent were not shown big.

The increasing use of plastics in food packaging materials has led to the issue of food-packaging mutual interactions from residues in the plastics. Plastic films are commonly printed by using solvent-based ink to decorate the packaged food for consumer attention. However, the residual solvents can not be completely removed and they can migrate into the contained food which lead to undesirable off-flavors. Partitioning (Kp) of printing ink solvents was studied in two types of plastic films with different chemical structure and polarity. At $25^{\circ}C$, Kp of toluene is higher than that of isopropanol in PP, but isopropanol showed higher Kp value than toluene in EVOH. This showed that polarity had a significant effect on the partitioning of printing ink solvents into the plastic films. Printing solvents had a higher affinity to the polymer with similar polarity than it did to the different one.

The regulations for migration amounts in USA, EU and Korea are investigated to compare the actual overall and specific migration date from plastic food packaging materials. Among the packaging materials regulated in above countries, printing ink solvents on packaging materials is used very widely and sometimes cause off-flavor in the food by migration of residual solvents. Even though migration of the residual solvents dose not generally cause safety problems in the contained food, it certainly can generate off-flavor and finally deteriorate quality of the finished product. Therefore regulation and development of analytical method for amount of residual ink solvents are very important issue in food industry. The headspace analytical method and tenax method for residual ink solvent on food packaging materials were evaluated from the accuracy, precise, swiftness and convenience of viewpoint. Headspace analytical method was selected and recommended for using in food industry field.
