Glutathione(GSH) in biological samples was determined by high performance liquid chromatographic(HPLC) method with fluorescence detector(FLD) after monobromobimane(MBB) or 4-fluoro-7-sulfobenzofurazan(SBD-F) derivatization. The detection limit of $0.03{\mu}g/mL$ was obtained after MBB derivatization, derivative of MBB was about 200 times more sensitive than that of SBD-F. N-acetylcysteine was used as internal standard and tetrabutylammonium ion as counter ion for better separation. The determination by ion-pairing chromatography after MBB derivatization was characterized by linearity in the range between $0.08{\sim}8.33{\mu}g/mL$ with a good correlation coefficient of 0.998. By precision test appeared relative standard deviation at less than 5% at three different concentrations. This method can be used for the analysis of GSH in plasma and tissue.

마이크로볼로미터 적외선 센서는 인체감지, 전자부품의 품질검사, 에너지 절감, 산업시설감시 및 군사용으로 다양하게 적용되고 있다. 기존에 이러한 적외선 센서의 감지재료로 VOx 또는 비정질 Si이 가장 많이 사용되고 있으며, VOx는 감도가 높고, 세계적으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 물질이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 VOx 박막 증착법을 개선하여 Zn 산화물 박막을 혼용한 적외선 감지재료를 이용한 마이크로볼로미터 제작 및 특성에 대해 보고한다. RF sputtering 방법으로 약 140 nm의 VOx/ZnO/VOx 샌드위치 박막을 증착하고, 산소분위기에서 열처리함으로써 온도저항계수(TCR)가 약 -3.0 %/K의 값을 갖는 특성을 구현하였다. 갓 증착된 V-Zn 박막에서는 XRD 스펙트럼에서는 V2O5 관련 피크가 주로 관측되었으며, 산소열처리에 의해 VO2 피크가 새롭게 관측되었다. 볼로미터 감지소자는 유효면적 $50{\times}50{\mu}m^2$ 으로 bulk micromaching 공정을 통해 제작하였다. Si 기판위에 SiNx 박막을 PECVD 장치를 이용하여 증착하였으며, 적외선 감지층으로 V-Zn 산화물을 RF sputtering 방법으로 증착하여 열처리 후 SiNx passivation 박막으로 보호하였다. 열적고립을 위해 패터닝 후 Si 기판을 KOH 용액을 이용하여 약 $20{\mu}m$ 식각하여 소자를 구현하였다. 제작된 소자의 특성을 평가한 결과 반응도는 1.57e+4 V/W, 탐지도는 $8.79e+7cmHz^{1/2}/W$를 얻을 수 있었다. 소자의 동작 특성을 평가하기 위해 진공 압력을 1e-3 torr 이하에서 thermoelectric cooler를 장착한 metal package를 제작하여 동작온도에 따른 특성을 평가하였다. 동작온도를 $10^{\circ}C{\sim}40^{\circ}C$로 하여 측정한 결과 동작온도가 증가할수록 신호전압은 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

Gas chromatography using sulfur chemiluminescence detection (GC-SCD) which exhibits very good selectivity, linearity, and sensitivity was applied to the analysis of suIfur compounds in gaseous fuel. The expectmental method used in this study was to resolve the problems of repeatability and reproducibility by means of the adsorption of sulfur compounds, which is different from the existing analysis method of these compounds by GC-SCD. The calibration curves of the standard gases including dimethyl sulfide, t-butylmercaptan and ethyl methyl sulfide exhibited an excellent linearity. As the result of precision tests for the above three compounds, the high reproducibility for tests showed while repeating three times during four days, respectively. In addition, the coefficient of variation was less than 3%. In consequence, the expectmental method of this study is very effective not only with low uncertainty but also with better accuracy, which can quickly determine the concentration of gas odorants in LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) from oil reservoirs and filling stations.

A gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of amphetamine derivatives and norketamine in human hair. Preparation of hair involves external decontamination, mechanical pulverization, incubation and extraction prior to instrumental analysis. The samples were derivatized using heptafluorobutyric anhydride, and analyzed by GC-MS/MS. The linear ranges were 0.05-20.0 ng/mg for the analytes except for 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine, with good coefficients of determination ($r^2$ >0.998). The intra-day and inter-day precisions were within 10.7% and 8.5%, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day accuracies were between -1.6 and 17.0% and -2.6 and 10.5%, respectively. The limits of detections for each analyte were lower than 0.007 ng/mg, while recoveries were 75.9-100.9%. When the method was applied to hair samples obtained from suspected drug abusers, the concentrations in hair samples were 0.97-19.30 ng/mg for methamphetamine and 0.14-2.56 ng/mg for amphetamine.

The purpose of this study was to develop an analytical method for determining 15 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) of EU priority using gas chromatography (GC)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS). The PAHs in ground coffee were analyzed after being extracted using methods such as saponification-liquid-liquid extraction, Soxhlet extraction, and solid-liquid extraction. The solid-liquid extraction method showed the greatest repeatability and most efficient reduction of the matrix effect. GC-tandem MS for the quantification of the 15 PAHs showed better resolution and lower limit of detections (LODs) than GC-MS-selected ion monitoring (SIM) and high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detector. LODs of this method for the ground coffee types were 0.002-0.1 ${\mu}g/kg$ and limit of quantifications (LOQs) were 0.006-0.2 ${\mu}g/kg$ The recoveries ranged from 52.6 to 93.3%. Forty-six commercial types of ground coffee were analyzed to determine their PAHs contamination levels. PAHs concentration ranged from ND to 5.988 ${\mu}g/kg$. This study was conducted with toxicity equivalence factors, the U.S. EPA recommendation to identify dietary risks for PAHs in different types of coffee. The estimated average daily dose of PAHs was $5.24{\times}10^{-8}$ mg/kg body weight/day.

Purpose: increased uptake of wrist and hand joints in three phase bone scintigraphy (TPBS) have been used in the detection of reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome (RSDS). TPBS frequently shows increased shoulder uptake in the hemiplegic RSDS patients. We investigated the significance of the shoulder uptake in the detection of these patients. Materials and Methods: Twenty three patients who had hemiplegia due to brain stroke and diagnosed as RSD were enrolled in this study (M:F=16:7, R:L=11:12). The mean age was $63{\pm}10$ yrs. Ter normal volunteer (mean age: $60{\pm}5$, M:F=1:9) data was used as control group. TPBS was performed $59{\pm}32$ days after stoke (acute stage). We obtained the count ratios of bilateral hands by drawing a region of interest (ROI) in three phase images and compared to the count ratios of shoulders in the delayed image. Hand ROI included an ipsilateral wrist. Sensitivity of detecting the affected limb was defined using the right/left count ratio of normal control. Results: Sensitivities using count ratios of hand blood flow, blood pool and delayed image were 45%, 76% and 78%, respectively. Sensitivity of shoulder count ratio was 74%. Log of right/left counts of hand delayed image and that of shoulder delayed image were correlated well with statistical significance (Spearman's R=0.824, p<0.001). Conclusion: Shoulder uptake showed good correlation with hand uptake in the delayed image of TPBS. Shoulder uptake maybe helpful in the diagnosis of reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome in patients with hemiplegia.

Early diagnosis and medical intervention are critical for the treatment of patients with metabolic disorders. A rapid analytical method was developed for simultaneous quantification of organic acids and amino acids in urine without labor-intensive pre-extraction procedure showing high sensitivity and specificity. A new method consisted of simple two-step trimethylsilyl (TMS)-trifluoroacetyl (TFA) derivatization using GC/MS-selective ion monitoring (SIM). Filter paper urine specimens were dried under nitrogen after being fortified with internal standard (tropate) in a mixture of distilled water and methanol. Methyl orange was added to the residue as indicator reagent. Silyl derivative of carboxylic functional group was followed by trifluoroacetyl derivative for amino functional group. N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl-trifluoroacetamide) and N-methyl-bistrifluoroacetamide were consecutively added and heated for 15-20 min at $65^{\circ}C-70^{\circ}C$, for TMS-TFA derivative, respectively. This reactant was analyzed by GC/MS-SIM. Linear dynamic range showed 0.001-50 mg with the detection limit of (S/N=3) 10-200 ng, and the quantification limit of 80-900 ng in urine. Correlation coefficient of regression line was 0.994-0.998. When the method was applied to the patients 'urine, it clearly differentiated the normal from the patient with metabolic disorder. The study showed that the developed method could be the method of choices in rapid and sensitive screening for organic aciduria and amino acidopathy.

AOAC Mouse Bioassay Analysis (MBA) has been the gold standard for the analysis of paralytic shellfish poisoning toxin (PSP toxin) for more than 50 years. However, this method has inaccurate limit of quantification and cannot be used to determine toxic profiles. An HPLC method (PCOX) was optimized for Korean shellfish to establish an alternative or supplementary method for PSP analysis and was intended to be used for the official monitoring and regulation of food. The recovery rate of the PCOX method was 83.5-112.1% and the limit of quantification for total toxin was about $8.6{\mu}g$/100 g. A long-term comparison study showed a good correlation of the PCOX results with the AOAC MBA results: the correlation factors were 0.9534 and 0.9109 for oyster and mussel matrices, respectively. The PCOX method may be used as an alternative or supplementary method for AOAC MBA to monitor the occurrence of PSP and to analyze PSP toxin profile in oysters and mussels.
