Flocculation-spectrophotometry and streaming current detector( SCD ) method were investigated and compared in order to determine the optimum dosages of synthetic cationic polymers of different charge density and molecular mass for the removal of humic acid. The optimum dosage for each of the polymers was determined with the dosage at which the lowest absorbance of humic acid was shown for the formal. and was determined with the dosage required during charge neutralization of humic acid for the latter It was in good agreement between both methods and there is a strong inverse correlation between the optimum dosage and charge density of the polymers, with highly charged polymer giving the lowest optimum dosage, pointing out the importance the charge neutralization. By flocculation-spectrophotometry, it was found that the absorbance of humid acid with the amount of each of the polymers dosed, changes sharply for polymers of high charge density, but changes rather broadly for polymers of low and middle charge density, Both methods showed that a stoichiometric correlation exists between the optimum dosage of each of the cationic polymers and the negatively charged humic acid.

Determination of Aconitum alkaloids in processed Buza (Cho-0, Salted Buza, Moist-heating Buza, Limed Buza), which had been prepared from the raw tubers of Aconitum chiisanenseb(Ranunculaceae), was established using visible spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method especially for Aconitine analysis. Aconitum alkloids were reacted with tetra- thiocy-anatocobalt[II] complex ion to form a stable ion pair. The reaction product was insoluble in water but freely soluble in several organic solvents. 1.2-Dichloroethane was the best extracting solvent among the examined solvents. Spectrophotometry of Aconitum alkaloids at nax. 625 was carried out. The HPLC method for aconitine was carried out using Radial PAK-CN column with gradient solvent system by solvent mixture of acetonitrile and phosphate buffer (pH 3.0) at 4$0^{\circ}C$ and 254 nm. Linear relationship was found between absorbance response and concentration of aconitine in range of 0.45 mM~0.9 mM ($r^2$=0.9949) by spectrophotometry and 0.3 mM~1.2mM($r^2$=0.9983) by HPLC method. These methods have been found to be suitable and reproducible for routine analysis of Aconitum alkaloids and its pharmaceutical preparations.

This study examined non-destructive UV-Vis spectrophotometry as well as 3-D fluorescence spectrophotometry of textile that made use of red dye such as Sappan wood, madder, Safflower, Gromwell. The authors produced two textile specimen that were dyed by not only two kinds of textile (cotton and silk) but also three kinds of mordanting (no-mordanting, alumen and iron), and they investigated effects of each dye material upon investigation results. At analysis with UV-Vis spectrophotometry of dyed textile specimen, dyeing made by sappan wood, madder and gromwell had significant difference depending upon mardant regardless of kinds of textile, and safflower had no significant difference depending upon textile and mordant. At analysis with 3D-fluorescence spectrophotometry, specimen dyed with sappan wood had difference with mordants, and with madder, there were difference with textiles, and safflower had inherent fluorescence spectrum regardless of textiles and mordants, while gromwell had no fluorescence spectrum.

In order to improve the sensitivity of the current assay methods of selenium in dried-yeast preparations, atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and UV-Vis spectrophotometry were employed. The sample was prepared with the digestion by acid mixture of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and perchloric acid after elimination of ether-soluble substances. The range of quantitation of selenium was $1.0{\sim}6.0\;{\mu}g/ml$ by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, $5.0{\sim}20.0\;{\mu}g/ml$ by HPLC and $0.03{\sim}0.10\;{\mu}g/ml$ by AAS.

A rapid preconcentration method based on solvent extraction is described for the determination of gold by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Trace amounts of gold was extracted as a new chelating agent, 3-thiophenaldehyde-4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone from pH 4.0 in diisobutyl ketone. The method is simple, fast, free from the effect of many interfering ions and has a high sensitivity and a good precision. Gold is quantitatively separated and concentrated from the elements in standard sample, and the value of the recovery was 91.7 and 108.3% by the proposed method.

The interaction of bovine carbonic anhydrase II with copper ions was studied by isothermal titration microcalorimetry, circular dichroism, UV spectrophotometry and temperature scanning spectrophotometry methods at 27 ${^{\circ}C}$ in Tris buffer solution at pH = 7.5. It was indicated that there are three non-identical different binding sites on carbonic anhydrase for $Cu^{2+}$. The binding of copper ions is exothermic and can induce some minor changes in the secondary and tertiary structure of the enzyme, which does not unfold it, but can result in a decrease in both activity and stability of the enzyme.

In quantitative analysis of sulfonamide drugs by means of infrared Spectrophotometry, the author tried to analyse Sulfamethoxydiazine and Sulfamethoxypyridazine in their Pharmaceutical Preparations. By the survey of infrared absorption spectra of Sulfamethoxydiazine and Sulfamethoxypyridazine. We found quantitative properties at the peaks of wave number 1150 cm$^{-1}$ (Sulfamethoxydiazine) and 1090 cm$^{-1}$ (Sulfamethoxypyridazine) in the spectra. These peaks obey Beer's Law in a range of 50-150 ug for Sulfamethoxydiazine and 70-350 ${\mu}$g for Sulfamethoxypyridazine in 300 mg KBr disc. By this method, Sulfamethoxydiazine and Sulfamethoxypyridazine could be analyzed less than 2% error.

A low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol testing device, structured with serial reflected face-to-face mirror (SRM) allowing spectrophotometry measurements, is presented. The spectrophotometry has been employed to measure the amount of light that a sample absorbs, but it generally should have had path length longer than 10 mm to secure enough sensitivity. Such requirement of path length has often been problematic in implementing a thin type of lab on a disc (LOD). We developed the SRM system which was implemented in a detection chamber with 1.4mm thickness, providing path length longer than 10mm, and thus straightforwardly being applicable to LOD as thin as a compact disc. The experimental results show that the SRM system gives not only a much thinner design compared to the conventional spectrophotometry-based LOD but also a comparable performance to already commercialized spectrometers.

Copper(II) acetate spectrophotometry method (CASM) was used for the rapid and convenient determination of cation exchange capacity (CEC) in soils. This method is composed of a single-step exchange reaction that adsorbs copper and is measured through spectrophotometry. The CEC of 16 Korean soils were measured using 1M ammonium acetate method (AAM) and the CASM. The CEC values determined by CASM and AAM were not significantly different, and were highly correlated ($r=0.966^{**}$). Due to the convenience, cost effectiveness, and time saving analysis of CASM, this method is recommended for most soil laboratories to measure CEC in Korean soils. However, CASM may not be applicable for soils that have a much higher CEC (greater than $20cmol_c\;kg^{-1}$).

Attempts were made to elucidate the process of biodegradation of furfural. Zoogloea sp. isolated from soil could convert furfural into 2-furoic acid by a certain enzyme (s) and also accumulated it extracellularly. This substance was extracted with diethyl ether and identified with U.V. spectrophotometry, high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and IR spectrophotometry.
