Abstract
To measure the levels of dioxins in food selling at local markets, meat was analyzed by high resolution gas chromatography/high resolution ass spectrometry (HRGC/HRMS). The food samples were obtained from 5 large cities of Seoul, Chunchon, Daejon, Kwangju and Busan in Korea. All the samples were minced and extracted with Soxhlet extractor for 18 hours. After extraction, extracts were cleaned up by sulfuric acid impregnated silica gel, purified on a series of silica gel, alumina, carbon column chromatography and then analyzed by HRGC/HRMS. The contaminated levels were calculated as the TEQs by multiplying with the corresponding WHO-TEFs for each congeners. The overall recoveries were ranged from 80% to 153% and the limit of detection was about 0.01 ppt at S/N>3. The levels of PCDD/Fs for beef, pork and chicken were 0.018, 0.008 and <0.001 pgTEQ/g, respectively. In addition, the levels of non-ortho-co-planar PCBs for beef, pork and chicken were 0.008, 0.002 and 0.001 pgTEQ/g, respectively. Among food samples analyzed, chicken showed the lowest level of dioxin-like compounds. Regarding congener pattern, OCDD and PCB #77 were the highest contributing congeners.
식품 중에 미량 존재하는 다이옥신류를 분석하기 위하여 육류인 소고기 돼지고기 닭고기를 서울 춘천 대전 광주 부산의 5대 도시 시장 등에서 채취하여 HRGC/HRMS를 이용한 동위원소희석법으로 분석하였다. 시료를 균질화하여 Soxhlet 추출 후 지방함량을 측정하고 정제를 하여 dioxin 7종, furan 10종 및 co-planar PCB 3종에 대하여 HRGC/HRMS로 분리능 10,000에서 분석하였다. 각각의 congener에 대한 회수율은 80-153%이었으며, 검출한계는 congener에 따라 차이는 있었으나 S/N>3에서 0,01ppt 수준이었다. 대상시료의 검출량을 WHO-TEF에 의한 TEQ로 산출한 결과 다이옥신의 평균잔류수준은 소고기 0.018, 돼지고기 0.008, 닭고기 <0.001 pgTEQ/g이었으며, non-ortho co-planar PCBs의 평균잔류수준은 소고기 0.008, 돼지고기 0.002, 닭고기 0.001 pgTEQ/g으로 닭고기의 오염수준이 제일 낮게 나타났다. 또한 분석시료에서 다이옥신류의 분포패턴을 살펴보면 OCDD의 비율이 상대적으로 높게 나타났으며, co-planar PCBs의 경우는 77번의 비율이 상대적으로 높게 나타났다.
