Trimethylamine(이하 TMA)은 물질특성상 시료의 채취 및 분석과 관련하여, 여러 가지 어려운 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 일반적으로 TMA의 채취방법으로 황산용액 흡수법이나 황산여과지 방법을 추천하고있다. 이들 방법은 아직까지 운용상 어려움과 분석시 숙련도를 요구한다. 본문에서는 보조적인 방법으로 Tedlar bag에 기초한 채취 및 SPME 를 이용한 분석기법의 특성에 대해 평가하고자 하였다. Tedlar bag은 시료의 채취 및 보관과 관련한 불안정성, 분석시 재현성 등에 대해 일부 문제점들이 지적받고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이런 문제점들을 여러 가지 기준으로 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 다음과 같이 3가지 관점에서 비교실험을 수행하였다: (1) Tedlar bag에 TMA 시료를 보존할 때의 경시 변화, (2) Tedlar bag의 표면에 의한 TMA의 흡착 손실 정도, (3) SPME를 이용한 반복 분석시 파이버에 의한 시료의 흡착손실 등을 조사하였다. 최대 20일까지를 기준으로 경시 변화의 경향성을 조사한 결과, 48시간 까지 저농도에서 40~50% 정도로 시료의 감소가 일어났다. 그리고 두 가지 농도대에서 Tedlar bag 내부의 표면흡착에 의한 손실 여부를 평가한 결과, 저농도에서 약 20%, 고농도에서는 5% 이내의 손실을 확인하였다. 또한 동일한 Tedlar bag의 시료를 SPME로 반복분석한 결과, SPME fiber를 반복사용할 때 마다 백내부의 시료가 매회 2-3% 수준 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Various anion exchange membranes were prepared by radiation graft copolymerization of vinylbenzyl chloride onto fluorinated films and subsequent quaternization with various tertiary amines such as trimethylamine, N,N-dimethylbuthylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline, and N-methylpiperidine. The quaternizations of the anion exchange membranes were confirmed by measuring of the ion exchange capacities of the membranes. The mechanical properties and the water uptakes were also measured. The elongation at break was found to be largely dependent on the fluorinated film, the quateranry ammonium, and the degree of grafting. The results indicate that the poly (ethylene-alt-tetrafluoroethylene) with quaternized trimethylamine moiety exhibits higher flexible property compared to the other prepared anion exchange membranes.

The purpose of this work is to develop a high-efficiency air cleaning system for air pollutants such as particulate and gaseous state in indoor environments. In order to enhance a removal efficiency of gaseous state pollutants, we suggested that pulsed discharge plasma be combined with $TiO_2$ photocatalyst (photocatalytic plasma air cleaning unit). We investigated experimentally the basic characteristics of photocatalytic plasma air cleaning unit and measured air pollutants removal efficiency. The wavelength of light radiated from pulsed discharge plasma under the atmospheric condition was 310~380nm. Its energy is enough to excite the $TiO_2$ photocatalyst and it makes a photochemical reaction in the surface of $TiO_2$ photocatalyst. The removal quantity of trimethylamine$((CH_3)_3N)\; was\; 130mg/m^34 which is twice quantity of pulsed discharge plasma without $TiO_2$ phtocatalyst unit. From the result of gas analysis using FT-IR, nitric oxide was not detected and trimethylamine was decomposed to $H_2O\; and \;CO_2$. And trimethylamine removal efficiency was 95%. These experimental results indicate that photocatalytic plasma air cleaning unit is a potential method in removing the pollutants.

생선 등에서 비린내 성분중 하나인 트리메틸아민을 이취 유발 물질로 하여 6% 쌀뜨물을 기준으로 아밀로오스, 전분, ${\alpha}$-cyclodextrin 등과 이취 제거효과를 전자코를 이용하여 비교 분석해보았다. 쌀뜨물과 이취물질의 반응시간이 길수록 그만큼 결합이 많이 이루어져 이취 저감화 효과가 크게 나타났으며 쌀뜨물의 농도가 높을수록 반응할 수 있는 전분의 양이 많아 그만큼 이취가 적게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 쌀뜨물이 아닌 다른 탄수화물 용액과의 반응에서 6% 쌀뜨물과 전분의 효과는 비슷하였으며 ${\alpha}$-cyclodextrin은 농도가 10배 정도 낮음에도 불구하고 비슷한 경향을 보여 그만큼 이취 저감화 효과가 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 반면 밀가루는 단백질의 함량이 높아 다른 물질들에 비해 결합정도가 낮을 거라 예상되며 쌀뜨물의 이취 저감화 효과는 아밀로오스뿐 아니라 아밀로펙틴의 영향도 받는 다는 것을 간접적으로 예상되는 바이다. 이러한 결과들을 통해 향후 신제품 개발이나 품질 관리에 활용될 수 있을 것이며 이러한 이취 제거 성분들은 전통식품 같이 첨가물이나 가공품을 많이 첨가하기가 어려운 시료에서의 활용이 높을 것으로 기대되는 바이다.

In this study, the removal efficiency of trimethylamine (TMA) and four reduced sulfur compounds (RSC) of $H_2S$, $CH_3SH$, DMS, and DMDS was investigated using deionized water as absorbent. To this end, two types of experiments were conducted which include: (1) by passing both RSC and TMA standard gases through water contained in an impinger system and (2) by passing TMA gases through a water spray system. In the former method, TMA standard gases were effectively removed (below detection limit) in all experiments. Likewise, minor fractions of some RSC ($CH_3SH$, DMS, and DMDS) were removed by water in line with theoretical expectations. In addition, the first type of our experiment was extended further to test some commercially available odor treatment products. The results of this test showed that removal efficiencies of RSC $(8.2\pm13.7\sim43.7\pm2.48%)$ were different significantly among 4 kinds of absorbent, while the removal of TMA was consistently good as water. In the second phase of experiment, removal efficiency of TMA was tested by passing its standard gas through a water spray system. The overall results of our study showed that the actual removal efficiency of odorants by water (as sorptive media) approached the values that can be predicted theoretically (by Henry's law).

Trimethylamine (TMA) is a well-known off-odor compound in fish and fishery products and is a metabolic product of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) generated by the enzymatic action of microorganisms. The off-odor is a factor that can debase the value of fish and fishery products. The present study aimed to remove TMA using lactic acid bacteria (LAB). A total of fifteen isolates exhibiting the TMA reduction efficacy were isolated from Korean traditional fermented foods. Among these isolates, five LAB isolates (Lactobacillus plantarum SKD 1 and 4; Lactobacillus paraplantarum SKD 15; Pediococcus stilesii SKD 11; P. pentosaceus SKD 14) were selected based on their high TMA reduction efficacy. In situ reduction of TMA efficacy by the LAB cell-free supernatant was evaluated using a spoiled fish sample. The results showed effective TMA reduction by our selected strains: SKD1 (45%), SKD4 (62%), SKD11 (60%), SKD14 (59%), and SKD15 (52%), respectively. This is the first study on TMA reduction by the metabolic activity of LAB and in situ reduction of TMA using cell-free supernatant of LAB. The present finding suggests an economically useful and ecofriendly approach to the reduction of TMA.

To investigate the quality retention method of salted and semi-dried mackerel fillets, pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), trimethylamine (TMA) and total bacterial counts in the fillets that were UV treated for 1, 3, and 4 hr were periodically measured during 48 days of refrigerated storage. The moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash contents were 45.46 %, 18.87 %, 33.75 %, and 2.99 %, respectively. The freshness as determined by pH measurement could be maintained up to 25 days for the control and 31 days for the UV-treated fillets. VBN contents were continually increased over the storage time. The control reached the initial putrid level after 21 days while the UV-treated fillets after $25{\sim}31$ days. A similar tendency was shown for the changes of trimethylamine TMA contents, although the period differed slightly and the increase of the UV treatment time could decrease the TMA contents. The changes on the total bacterial counts of the fillets were maintained under 105 CFU/g during 48days. Especially, due to the effective decrease of the microorganism count by UV treatment at the beginning of the storage, UV -treated fillets showed lower bacterial counts than control over the whole period. E. coli. and Listeria were not detected in any fillets. Combining the above data and the sensory changes, the storage period of the fillets could be prolonged from 15 days at present to 30 days by UV treatments.
