GC-${\mu}$ECD 이용한 수삼, 건조인삼, 홍삼 중 DDT(o,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDE, o,p'-DDD, p,p'-DDD, o,p'-DDT, p,p'-DDT)의 효율적인 분석방법을 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. 단순하며 소량의 용매를 사용하는 동시분석법을 이용하여 인삼으로부터 DDT(DDD 및 DDE포함)를 추출하고 헥산 및 6% 에테르 함유 헥산으로 SPE-Florisil(500 mg) 정제하는 것이 GC-${\mu}$ECD 크로마토그램에서 인삼고유성분과 DDT(DDD 및 DDE포함) 피크의 분리도와 회수율 측면에서 가장 효율적이었다. 또한 인삼 중 저농도(0.01-0.05 mg/kg) DDT(DDD 및 DDE포함) 이성질체를 SPE-Florisil(500 mg) 정제 전 30% 황산 처리 후 원심분리로 인삼 고유성분을 제거하여 정확성을 높였다. 동시다성분법 추출 후 황산처리 및 SPE-Florisil(500 mg) 정제방법을 이용한 수삼, 건조 인삼분말, 홍삼분말에 DDT(DDD 및 DDE포함) 이성질체 표준용액을 0.01 mg/kg 농도가 되도록 첨가하여 실험한 회수율은 87.9-99.6%이었으며 표준편차는 0.9-5.9%였다. 또한 검출한계(Method Detection Limits)는 0.003-0.009 mg/kg이었다.
The MRLs (maximum residue limits) of DDT (DDD and DDE) in fresh ginseng, dried ginseng, and steamed red ginseng are set as low as 0.01 mg/kg, 0.05 mg/kg, and 0.05 mg/kg, respectively. Therefore, this study was undertaken to develop a simple and highly sensitive analysis method, as well as to reduce interfering ginseng matrix peaks, for the determination of DDT isomers (o,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDE, o,p'-DDD, p,p'-DDD, o,p'-DDT, and p,p'-DDT) in fresh ginseng, dried ginseng, and steamed red ginseng at the 0.01 mg/kg level. The method used acetonitrile extraction according to simultaneous analysis, followed by normal-phase Florisil solid-phase extraction column clean-up. The purification method entailed the following steps: (1) dissolve the concentrated sample extract in 7 mL hexane; (2) add 3 mL of $H_2SO_4$; (3) vigorously shake on avortex mixer; (4) cetrifuge at 2000 rpm for 5 min; (5) transfer 3.5 mL of the supernatant to the Florisil-SPE (500 mg/6 mL);and (6) elute the SPE column with 1.5 mL of hexane and 10 mL of ether/hexane (6:94). The determination of DDT isomers was carried out by a gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC-${\mu}$ECD). The hexane and ether/hexane (6:94) eluate significantly removed chromatographic interferences, and the addition of 30% $H_2SO_4$ to the acetonitrile extract effectively reduced many interfering ginseng matrix peaks, to allow for the determination of the DDT isomers at the 0.01 mg/kg level. The recoveries of the 6 fortified (most at 0.01 mg/kg) DDT isomers from fresh ginseng, dried ginseng, and steamed red ginseng ranged from 87.9 to 99.6%. The MDLs (method detection limits) ranged from 0.003 to 0.009 mg/kg. Finally, the application of this method for the determination of DDT isomers is sensitive, rapid, simple, and inexpensive.
