도로에서의 강우유출수 내 포함된 오염물은 주요한 비점오염원으로 간주되고 있으며 비점오염물질 저감을 위하여 많은 대책이 적용되고 있다. 도로청소에 의한 방법 또한 오염물의 강우유출에 의한 배출양을 감소시킬 수 있는 대책 중의 하나로 인식되는 추세에 있다. 본 연구에서는 도로청소 시 수거된 토사입자들의 특성을 파악하고 퇴적토사에 함유된 오염물질의 농도를 분석하였다. 분석결과를 바탕으로 하여 도로 구간별로 도로청소에 의하여 저감할 수 있는 오염물의 양을 평가하였다. 도로청소를 통하여 수거된 퇴적토사는 모래질로 분석되었으며 세립토 비중은 낮은 결과를 보였다. 퇴적토사 내 오염물의 양은 토양환경기준을 초과하지 않았으나 청소작업시 물을 살수함으로써 토사에 포함된 오염물이 세척되어 침출수로 미리 배출되는 것에 기인한다고 판단된다. 두 도로구역에 대하여 오염물 농도, 발생 퇴적토사량, 오염물 원단위를 적용하여 저감할 수 있는 오염물 양을 평가한 결과, ○○지역에 대하여 TSS 31.4% 및 △△지역에서는 TSS 7.7%의 TSS 저감량이 도출되었다. 중금속과 같은 타 오염물의 경우 훨씬 낮은 저감량이 평가되었으나 이는 물의 살수로 인하여 퇴적토사 내 오염물이 침출수로 배출된 것에 기인한다고 판단된다. 보다 정확하게 도로청소에 의하여 저감할 수 있는 오염물의 양을 산정하기 위하여 보다 자세하고 체계적인 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.

초임계 CO2유체를 이용하여 미강 중 표면활성물질을 추출하고 추출물의 표면활성능을 최적화하는 추출 조건을 반응표면분석법을 통해 조사하고자 하였다. 추출수율은 독립변수인 압력, 온도, 보조용매량이 많을수록 높았으며, 보조용매량이 추출수율에 가장 큰 영향을 주었다. 회귀분석을 통해서 얻은 최적 추출 조건은 추출압력 330 bar, 추출온도 65oC, 보조용매량 250 g이었다. 표면활성능 지표인 계면장력은 추출압력과 추출온도가 증가할수록 그리고 보조용매량이 높을수록 낮았으며, 추출수율과 마찬가지로 보조용매량이 계면장력에 가장 큰 영향을 주었지만 추출압력과 추출온도 등의 변수에 의한 영향은 비교적 적었다. 회귀분석을 통해서 얻은 최적 추출 조건(낮은 계면장력)은 추출압력 350 bar, 추출온도 65oC, 보조용매량 50 g이었다. 또한 D-optimal design을 통해 얻은 실험 결과를 바탕으로 회귀분석을 하였을 때 예측모델식은 실제 측정값과 비교해 높은 유의성을 나타내는 것으로 판단되었다. 보조용매량이 많을수록 극성 물질이 더 많이 추출되어 낮은 계면장력 값을 예상하였지만 실제 측정 결과 보조용매량이 가장 낮은 조건인 50 g에서 계면장력은 가장 낮게 측정되었다. 이의 규명을 위하여 TLC 및 HPLC 분석을 통한 추출물에 대한 성분 조사, 추출물을 이용한 유화액 제조, 유화액 특성 평가 등 추가 실험이 필요한 것으로 사료되었다.

The aim of study was to investigate polluted amounts 16 PAHs in railroad(waste railway ties) area, factory area and land-fill area. All of the samples were analyzed by GC-MSD(SIM mode), and the recovery range, detection limit and standard deviation obtained by this experiment were 73.88 ~ 94.75%, 0.009 ~ 2.252 μg/kg and 1.861 ~ 12.373, respectively. The concentrations of total PAHs(t-PAHs) and total carcinogenic PAHs(t-PAHcarc) in soils of three area were in the range of 12.54 ~ 3274.95 μg/kg on a wet weight basis with a mean value of 499.8 μg/kg and 0 ~122.77 μg/kg with a mean value of 20.16 μg/kg, respectively. The correlation between t-PAHs and t-PAHcarc appeared very high in railroad(waste railway ties) area (R2 = 0.8301), factory area (R2 = 0.9217) except land-fill area(R2 = 0.3782), indicated that t-PAHcarc concentration increases in proportion with t-PAHs.

In this study, we evaluated the composition of smoke released from fish frying processes. We selected 4 fish types (mackerel (M), hairtail (H), croaker (C), and japanese mackerel (J)) which are commonly served in our daily diet and collected their smoke samples. The analysis was made to cover both toxic and hazardous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that include benzene, toluene, p-xylene, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, butyl acetate, and isobutyl alcohol. According to our analysis, the mean concentrations (ppb) of VOCs derived from all 4 fish types were 254.5 (benzene), 34.5 (toluene), 833.0 (MEK), 29.4 (MIBK). Benzene as the class one carcinogen was detected at fairly high levels from these fish smoke samples so as to exceed indoor emission standard. Considering that roasted fish is often included as one of the common diet items, we can confirm that the smoke released from cooking should be controlled to reduce the possibility of their exposure to human.

An entomopathogenic bacterium, Photorhabdus temperata ssp. temperata (Ptt), suppresses insect immune responses and facilitates its symbiotic nematode development in target insects. The immunosuppressive activity of Ptt enhances pathogenicity of various microbial pesticides including Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). This study was performed to select a cheap and efficient bacterial culture medium for large scale culturing of the bacteria. Relatively cheap industrial bacterial culture media (MY and M2) were compared to two research media, Luria-Bertani (LB) and tryptic soy broth (TSB). In all tested media, a constant initial population of Ptt multiplied and reached a stationary phase at 48 h. However, more bacterial colony densities were detected in LB and TSB at the stationary phase compared to two industrial media. All bacterial culture broth gave significant synergism to Bt pathogenicity against third instars of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella. Production of bacterial metabolites extracted by either hexane or ethyl acetate did not show any significant difference in total mass among four culture media. Reverse phase HPLC separated the four bacterial metabolites, which were not much different in quantities among four bacterial culture broths. This study suggests that two industrial bacterial culture media can be used to economically culture Ptt in a large scale.

본 연구는 우리나라 주요 재배종인 Muscari armeniacum ‘Early Giant’ 품종을 사용하여 엽절편체로 부터 직접적으로 신초재생과 체세포배 발생에 미치는 생장조절제의 효과를 구명하였다. 무스카리의 엽조직으 로부터 캘러스 과정을 거치지 않은 직접 신초형성은 2,4-D 0.1 mg·L−1가 함유된 배지에서 가장 좋았다. 반면, 체세포배 발생은 생장조절제를 첨가하지 않는 대조구와 IPA 0.1~1.0 mg·L−1가 함유된 농도의 배지에서 비교적 양호하였다. 무스카리의 엽조직으로부터 재생된 자구를 기외로 이식했을 때 맹아율은 모든 처리구에서 80%이상 으로 높았으며 특히 NAA 0.1mg·L−1, IPA 1.0~3.0mg·L−1 배지에서 재생된 자구의 생장이 양호하였다.

This study aims to produce the threshold values of 12 specified offensive odor substances based on the 3 point comparison method instead of the 2 point comparison method of ASTM or CEN. As a result, the threshold values of individual odor substances, including Methyl mercaptane, Hydrogen sulfide, Trimethylamine, and I-Valeraldehyde ranged between 0.0001∼0.001ppm, while the values of Styrene and Ammonia were relatively higher than of other substances at 1.8ppm and 0.04 ppm respectively. The threshold values of the 12 specified odor substances were compared in Korea and overseas, which showed that the characteristics of olfactory response varied by substance and nation. When it comes to acetaldehyde or hydrogen sulfide, western countries, including the United States, tended to quite insensible compared to Koreans. Japanese people were more sensitive in the 12 specified odor substances than Koreans in general, suggesting that it is not only because of its olfactory ability, but because of the calculation method that produces Japan‘s dilution threshold values approximately 1.5 times as high as Korea"s.

This study was conducted to determine distribution and characteristics of odors in Yeo-su industrial complex. The sampling of odor compounds was performed from may to september in 2009, twice a month, both morning and afternoon. The analytical items were meteorological data, complex odor, legally-designated 17 odor compounds. Complex odor and 17 odor compounds in Yeo-su industrial complex were suitable in emmission standard(s). The major odor compounds were appeared to be Hydrogen sulfide, Methyl mercaptan, Trimethyl amine, Ammonia. So, the industrial complex in Yeo-su was influenced by the Nitrogen and Sulfide odor substances. The distribution of concentration was investigated Ammonia＞ Stylene＞ Xylene＞ Acetaldehyde in order. We suggest that VOCs, causing the odor problem in Yeo-su, should be mutually controlled with Hazardous Air Monitoring Network.

Mushrooms(Pleurotus ostreatus, Agaricus bisporus and Flammulina velutipes) are popular food sources in Korea, and have been reported as therapeutic foods, useful for preventing various diseases. In this study we researched HPLC conditions for the determination of nucleic acids in extracts of the three type of mushrooms. The method for nucleic acids analysis of mushrooms was developed using HPLC with UV detection. To determine the nucleic acids, mushroom extracts were extracted in hot water at 90℃ by reflux extraction for 1 hr. Then, the extracts were hydrolyzed by enzymes RP-1G and 50000G. The HPLC conditions were simple, rapid, and sensitive, and were applicable for the analysis of 4 nucleosides (cytidine, uridine, guanosine and inosine) and 3 mono-nucleotides(5`-CMP, 5`-UMP, and 5`-IMP) in the mushrooms. The nucleic acids in the mushrooms were cytidine, guanosine, inosine, uridine, 5`-CMP, 5`-IMP, and 5`-UMP. The analysis results for total nucleic acids in the mushroom extracts(Pleurotus ostreatus, Agaricus bisporus, and Flammulina velutipes) indicated levels of 25.28, 27.75, and 19.87㎎/g, respectively. In conclusion, this method can be used successfully for qualitative and quantitative analysis of nucleic acids in Pleurotus ostreatus, Agaricus bisporus, and Flammulina velutipes.

아세틸콜린에스터라아제(AChE) 저해제에 의한 아세틸콜린 분해 억제는 알츠하이머 질병의 가장 확실한 치료 방법 중의 하나로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 최근 웰빙 건강 소재로 각광을 받고 있는 과일과 채소로부터 새로운 AChE 저해제를 개발하여 항치매 식품이나 대체 의약품 생산에 응용하기 위해 과일과 채소로부터 AChE 저해 활성이 우수한 시료를 선별하고, AChE 저해 물질의 추출조건을 최적화하였다. AChE 저해 활성은 호두의 메탄올 추출물에서 72.6%(IC50=14.2㎍)로 가장 높았고, 호두의 AChE 저해 물질은 80% 메탄올로 40℃에서 12시간 동안 처리하였을 때 가장 많이 추출되었다.

A bacterial colony was isolated from the gut of the bean bug, Riptortus clavatus. From morphological and biochemical tests, the bacterial isolate showed the highest similarity to Staphylococcus succinus. DNA sequence of 16S rRNA gene of the bacterium supported the identification. Oral administration of penicillin G to adults of R. clavatus gave a dose-dependent mortality of adults of R. clavatus to adults along with significant decrease of the bacterial population in the gut. Similarly, three metabolites (benzylideneacetone, proline-tyrosine, and acetylated phenylalanine-glycine-valine) derived from an entomopathogenic bacterium, Xenorhabdus nematophila, also inhibited growth of the gut bacterial population and gave significant mortalities to R. clavatus. These results suggest that a gut bacterial population classified as Staphylococcus sp. is required for survival of R. clavatus and that the three bacterial metabolites had toxic effects on the bugs due to their antibacterial properties.

In this study fuji apples variation were measured during gradual decay, stored 5 weeks at 25℃. A aluminum and glass emission chamber were used for visual inspection throughout the experiment. The sampling was performed by using polyester aluminum bags and Tenax-TA tubes. In addition, GC/FID/O and TD-GC/MS were used for monitoring the compound of odor and its density variation during each storing period. By visual inspection, we found that the apples started decaying in 4th week and were rotten to core in 5th week. In contrast, individual odor analysis shows that the apples flavor reduced gradually and dramatically increased with the odor of old apples and apple cider in 3rd week, which was before visual identification of decay. This phenomenon was due to ongoing internal decay. ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, ethyl propanoate and 2-methylbutyl acetate were the major factor of this off-flavor in this period (3rd week). After visible observation of decay (4th week and 5th week), ethyl acetate, ethyl butanoate and hexyl ethanoate were emitted, which smells bitter or sour. Above 6 odors are closely related with apples decay, and measurement of smell or density of these odors could easily check the apples status. We expect measuring composition variation can be applied for food storage and management cause of not only internal change checking but also monitoring pre-decay phenomenon.

In this study, calibration characteristics of odorous amine compounds were investigated by gas chromatography (GC)-nitrogen phosphorous detector (NPD). To this end, three different amine compounds (methyl amine (MTA), dimethyl amine (DMA), and trimethyl amine (TMA)) were analyzed in a series of calibration experiments. As the first step, the liquid phase standards of these amines were calibrated at 5 concentration levels with the fixed standard volume (FSV) method. The results showed that response factors of three amines were in the order of TMA ＞ DMA ＞ MTA with their correlation coefficients (r) above 0.97. The results of FSV calibration also indicated that the analytical sensitivity of amines increased with reducing injection volume due to the decrease in matrix effect. However, when these compounds were calibrated by the fixed standard concentration (FSC) method, the results were not stable under most circumstances. In addition, the reliability of internal calibration approach was also tested using pyridine, nitrobenzene, and nicotine. When pyridine was used as internal standard of these amines, analytical reproducibility of amines was improved greatly compared to external calibration results (e.g., an improvement of 75% for DMA).

To search the potent pig pheromonal odorants through receptor-based approach methods, molecular dockings between 680 Flavornets as substrate molecule and pig odorants binding proteins OBP (1HQP) and PBP (1GM6) as receptor, and QSPR (quantitative structure-property relationship) analyses from physico-chemical parameters of Flavornets and their docking scores (DS) were performed and discussed quantitatively. From the basis on the findings, the optimal value (MSA)opt.=407.595 Å2 of MSA (molecular surface area; Å), and RB (number of rotational bond) had the Flavornets will be able to increase DS. Therefore, it is expected that the stearyl alcohol from DS and H-bond type between substrate and receptor would be shows the character as potent pig pheromonal odorant.
