The alkylphenols, chlorophenols and bisphenol A were determined by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry-selected ion monitoring mode followed by three work-up methods for comparison; EPA method, isoBOC derivatization method and TBDMS derivatization method. Eleven phenols in water samples were extracted with dichloromethane. Also, solid-phase extraction (SPE) with XAD-4 and subsequent conversion to isobutoxycarbonyl derivatives or tert.-butyldimethylsilyl derivatives for sensitive analysis with the selected ion-monitoring (SIM) mode. The recoveries were 85.1~109.9% (EPA method) and 90.3~126.6% (isoBOC derivatization and TBDMS derivatization), respectively. The method detection limit of bisphenol A for SIM were 0.732 ${\mu}g/{\ell}$ (EPA method), 0.002 ${\mu}g/{\ell}$ (isoBOC derivatization) and 0.021 ${\mu}g/{\ell}$ (TBDMS derivatization). The SIM responses were linear with the correlation coefficient varying 0.9755~0.9981 (isoBOC derivatization), and 0.9908~0.9996 (TBDMS derivatization). When these methods were applied to treated wastewater sample from a polyethylene plant, the concentrations of 11 phenols were below the method detection limit.

A simple analytical method to quantify formaldehyde in water at lower levels (${\mu}g/L$) was developed using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and acetylacetone as a derivative reagent. Unlike conventional methods, no extraction and/or concentration were required. The derivative reagent was added into samples and reacted for 30 minutes at $80^{\circ}C$ prior to the analysis of formaldehyde using HPLC. The method detection limit and the limit of quantification for this method were 1.6 and $5.0{\mu}g/L$, respectively. This method also achieved high precision (0.6-3.0%) and accuracy (91.6-106.3%). The recovery rates for various environmental samples ranged from 92.0 to 115.2%.

일반적으로 프탈레이트 에스테르의 전처리방법에는 액액추출법(Liquid Liquid Extraction, LLE), 고상추출법(Solid Phase Extraction, SPE), 고상미세추출법(Solid Phase Micro Extraction, SPME) 등의 분석방법이 있다. 그 중에서 본 연구에서는 간편하고 정확성이 높은 SPE를 이용하였으며, 적은 양의 유기용제를 사용하여 전처리함으로써 2차적인 환경 오염을 줄일 수 있다는 점에서 다른 전처리 방법보다 유용하다고 할 수 있다. 또한 프탈레이트 에스테르의 경우는 구조적으로 안정적인 편이나 페놀류의 경우 hydroxy group 때문에 GC/MS 분석시 유도체화 과정이 필수적이나 이번 연구에서는 HPLC를 이용하므로 별도의 유도체화의 번거로움 없이 바로 분석할 수 있는 이점이 있다. 더 많은 연구가 필요하겠지만 앞서서의 결과에서도 알 수 있듯이 전반적으로 검출한계가 0.1$\sim$0.5$\mu$g/L 정도로 높고, 82% 이상의 양호한 회수율을 나타낸 것으로 미루어 보아 극미량 분석이 아닌 이상, 산업체에서 HPLC의 이용이 더욱 유리할 것이라고 사료된다.

This study was conducted to establish an analytical method for the determination of seven nitrosamines in chlorinated tap water by precolumn derivatization followed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with fluorescence detection. The derivatization procedure was optimized for denitrosation and dansylation, and then two extraction methods, liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) with dichloromethane and solid phase extraction (SPE), were compared. The SPE method employing the optimized derivation procedure showed higher extraction recovery (54.4-88.7%) and reproducibility (1.9-19.4%) than the LLE method (51.4-87.7% and 4.2-33.3%, respectively). The method detection limits were between 0.5 and 4.4 ng/L. When chlorinated water samples were collected from two treatment plants and ten household taps, and analyzed for nitrosamines, Nnitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) was the major compound found between 26.1 and 112 ng/L.

Gibberllic acid ($GA_3$) is one of gibberellins (GAs) that are a class of plant growth hormones that exert profound and diverse effects on plant growth and development. $GA_3$ is essentially non-UV absorbing and is difficult to assay by UV-detector. For effective extraction of gibberellic acid from fruits by using liquid-liquid extraction, optimized pH and extraction solvent were established. The selective and sensitive derivative of $GA_3$ for HPLC/UV-vis was derivatized using phenacyl bromide, and the experimental factors, including reaction time, reaction temperature and amount of derivatizing reagent and base were investigated for the effective synthesis. The derivatized $GA_3$ with phenacyl bromide was effectively analyzed by HPLC/UV-vis. The structure of derivatized $GA_3$ was confirmed by HPLC/ESI-MS. For apple, LOD and LOQ were 0.008 mg/kg and 0.027 mg/kg, respectively. For pear, LOD and LOQ were 0.003 mg/kg, 0.012 mg/kg, respectively. The established method can be applied to more effective analysis of $GA_3$ from plant and food.

The studies for the derivatization of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) were performed mainly as acylation with HFBI (heptafluorobutyrylimidazole), alkylation with PBA (phenylboric acid) and silylation with BSTFA (N,O-bis[trimethylsilyl]trifluoroacetamide). Also silylation with MTBSTFA(N-methyl-N-[tert.-butyldimethylsilyl] trifluoroacetamide) and acylation with MBTFA (N-Methyl-bis[trifluoro-acetamide]) were also considered. Except the TBDMS derivative of 3-MCPD, all the derivatives were detected well. The derivatives of 3-MCPD with HFBI, PBA and BSTFA showed below 10 ${\mu}g/kg$ which was sensitive enough to satisfy Korea maximum residue limit 0.3 mg/kg. Among the tested adsorbents, Extrelut20 and Florisil were evaluated as the proper adsorbents to eliminate the soy sauce matrix for 3-MCPD. Ethyl acetate was the most efficient eluent with good recovery rate. The desired surrogate compound and internal standard were 1,2-butanediol and 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane, respectively. The limit of detection for PB-MCPD and TMS-MCPD were 10.16 and 7.06 ${\mu}g/kg$ on GC/MSD, respectively. HFB-MCPD derivative showed the lowest detection limits 2.98 and 5.32 ${\mu}g/kg$ by GC/ECD and GC/MSD, respectively.

축산식품(우유)내의 잔류항생물질을 신속하고 간편하고 정확하게 분석하기 위한 시험법 개발을 목적으로 하였다. 축산식품내의 일반적인 잔류항생물질에 대한 지금까지의 분석법으로는 Bioassay법, TLC법, ELISA법, GC법 및 HPLC법 등이 있지만 Streptomycin/dihydrostreptomycin, neomycin에 대한 HPLC법은 거의 확립되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 우리나라의 공인 검사법으로는 Bioassay법 및 HPLC법등이 있지만 그러나 지금까지의 방법으로는 검출감도가 낮은 것이 큰 문제점으로 되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 STP에 대한 HPLC법에 대한 보고한 Edder 방법 중에 clean-up 과정 및 이동상 조건을 대폭 수정하여 STP의 분리 및 검출감도를 낮추려고 시도하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 유도체화 장치 Post-Column Derivatization Instrument PCX 5100 (Pickering La-boratories, Inc.)의 컬럼 온도는 $40^{\circ}C$, 오븐온도 $55^{\circ}C$, 유도체화 용매 유속 0.6ml/min 이동상 유속 0.8ml/min으로 검출기는 형광검출기를 이용하여 STP 검출에 대해 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었다. 이때의 분석소요시간은 약 15분이었다. 표준시료 STP의 검량선은 넓은 농도범위(0.02${\sim}$1.0ppm)에서 양호한 직선성을 나타냈다. 본 시험법에 의한 검출한계는 limit of detection(LOD)은 0.02ppm이었으며, 적어도 우유에서의 MRL이 0.6ppm임을 감안하면 STP를 정량적으로 정도 좋게 측정할 수 있다는 것을 확인했다. 상기의 조건하에서 실제시료인 우유에 표준 STP를 0.5ppm을 spiking한 후 SPE상에서 SCX(Strong cation exchange column)을 통한 clean-up과정을 거친 후의 STP의 limit of quantification(LOQ)는 약 0.44ppm이었으며, 이에 대한 회수율은 89.7${\pm}$2.3%(n=6)를 나타냈다. 실제 CODEX에서 권장한 우유의 MRL이 0.6ppm인 점을 감안하면 CODEX권고치에 도달할 수 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발 된 시험법은 지금까지 국내적으로 STP에 대한 시험법이 확립되어 있지 않은 것으로 이와 아울러 간편한 parallux와 병용해 STP에 대한 정량 및 정성 분석을 유도체화 장치 및 형광검출기를 이용해 잔류항생물질 STP에 대한 분석시험법을 개발하였다.

The universality of low molecular weight metabolites (i.e. amino acids, steroid hormones) allows rapid and straightforward investigation of biochemistry of genetically un-characterized species. Thus in vivo metabolic profiling of amino acid in combination with multivariate data analysis (metabolomics) offers great potential in comparative biology. In this paper, amino acid profiles in biological fluid (media) were studied by using HPLC/FLD. HPLC procedure for amino acids require the formation of derivatives due to the low absorption of the free compounds. o-Phthalaldehyde (OPA) used in association with a thiol, such as 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA), is one of the most popular and sensitive reagents, which yield quickly fluorescent iso-indoles at room temperature. To improve unstability of OPA/3-MPA derivatization, we optimized injector programs for fixed injection times. Linear regressions for the standard curves were linear in the range 0.5 - 100.0 ppb, giving correlation coefficents above 0.99. The detection limit were 1.70 pmol(GLU) - 23.81 pmol(SER). It is practically useful when the amount of sample is very low on single cells.
