Concentrations of minerals (Ca, K, Mg, Na, Se, Zn, Fe, and Mn) in 50 different Korean foodstuffs were determined through neutron activation analysis. To check the accuracy of this method, the U.S. NIST standard reference materials were analyzed. Anchovy, sesame, perilla, and laver were found to contain relatively higher concentrations of Ca, Mg, Fe, and Zn than the other foodstuffs.

현재 사용되고 있는 진동감쇠능 Mg-Zr 합금인 K1A는 우수한 진동감쇠능을 갖으나 열악한 기계적 특성과 Zr이 고가이면서 고융점 원소로 합금화가 어렵다는 문제점 때문에 진동테이블, 미사일 유도시스템 및 레코딩 장비 등에 소량만 적용되고 있다. Mg-Ni 합금의 경우Ni가 Mg 용탕 내에 고용되지 않아 우수한 진동감쇠능을 갖으나 Fe, Cu등과 함께 Mg의 부식을 가속시키는 원소로 사용이 제한적일 뿐 아니라 Zr과 마찬가지로 Ni도 고융점 원소로 합금화가 어렵다는 것도 문제점으로 작용하고 있다. Mg-Si 합금의 경우 Si이 극소량만 고용되어 우수한 진동감쇠능을 보이며 Ni과 달리 부식에 영향을 받지 않는 원소이지만 Zr, Ni와 마찬가지로 고가이면서 고융점 원소로 합금화가 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. Mg 용탕에 첨가하게 되면 용탕의 표면에 MgO, CaO 피막을 형성하여 발화현상을 억제할 뿐 아리라 첨가량의 증가에 따라 발화온도를 상승시키는 Ca의 경우 Mg 내에 고용되어 진동감쇠능을 감소시킬 뿐 아니라 유동성 저하 및 열간균열을 야기하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 CaO의 경우 Mg내에 고용되지 않고, 가격이 저렴하며 Mg 고유 특성의 변화가 적다. 또한 Ca와 같이 Mg 용탕의 발화를 억제하여 보호가스인 $SF_6$를 사용하지 않아도 된다. 이런 다양한 장점을 갖는 CaO를 첨가한 Mg합금이 진동감쇠능을 유지하면서 기계적 특성이 향상된다면 주행 시 안전성 및 정음성이 요구되는 수송기기 분야와 외부충격으로부터 데이터 보호가 필수적인 휴대용 전자정보통신기기 분야에서 적용이 증가할 전망이며 이에 따라 이 분야에 대한 지속적인 연구와 투자가 이루어져야 할 것이다.

This study investigated the mobility of inorganic elements (As, Cd, Pb, and Zn) that existed as acid extractable and reducible forms in flooded soils with a pot experiment involving rice cultivation. In general, it is known that soil inorganic elements that existed as an acid extractable form which includes exchangeable, carbonates, non-specifically sorbed, and specifically sorbed have mobility. However, the result of the experiment revealed that each inorganic elements of rice roots grown from flooded soils had different characteristics. The concentrations of Arsenic existed as both forms and the concentrations of cadmium and lead existed as a reducible form in the soils showed a high causal relationship with the concentrations of those elements in the roots of rice plants. The concentrations of zinc, an essential plant element, didn't show a causal relationship. Therefore it is necessary to consider the soil's environmental characteristics such as drained/flooded condition, oxidation/reduction condition, etc. for the mobility assessment of inorganic elements. The concentrations of the reducible form of arsenic, cadmium, and lead in flooded environment such as a paddy field should be also considered because the mobility of these elements combined with Fe/Mn increases in the reduction condition.

최근 환경오염에 대한 인식과 규제가 증가하고 쾌적한 주변환경에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 대기물, 토양, 생물 등과 같은 여러가지 환경시료의 분석을 통하여 오염의 정도를 파악하고 오염원을 규명하여 환경관리정책에 반영하려는 노력이 추진되고 있다. 여러 가지 환경시료중 대기분진은 자연적 또는 인위적 발생원에 따라 다양한 원소들을 함유하고 있기 때문에 대기환경지표시료로 이용되고 있다. 오염원의 규명을 위한 소량의 휠터상 분진시료로부터 원소의 정확한 분석은 필수적이고 중요한 선행작업이며 적합한 측정분석법의 이용이 요구된다. (중략)

The selenium content of a wide variety of Korean food was determined by neutron activation analysis. Most fruits and vegetables contained quantities of selenium less than $0.4{\mu}g/g$. Grain products varied widely in their selenium content with $0.5{\mu}g/g$ and barley cereal as high as $0.7{\mu}g/g$. Dried milk powder sample ranged from $0.7\;to\;0.15{\mu}g/g$. Chicken muscle contained about $0.7{\mu}g/g$. The content of sea food was generally higher, ranging from $0.3\;to\;3.65{\mu}g/g$. These values suggest that a diet well balanced in other nutrients is probably also nutritionally adequate with regard to selenium, although possible effects of cooking and biological availability remain to be investigated.

We investigated the effects of pollutants on two pine species (Pinus koraiensis and Pinus rigida) in an industrial region, using a physiological approach. We measured the growth and physiological parameters (photosynthetic activity and chemical contents) of the pine trees in relation to environmental pollutants. The concentrations of manganese (Mn), fluorine (F) and chlorine (CI) in needles of two pine species at the damaged site were significantly higher than those at the control site, and concentrations of essential elements (P) and chlorophyll in needles at the damaged site were significantly lower than at the control site. The light-saturated net photosynthesis $(P_{sat})$, apparent quantum yield $(\Phi)$, carboxylation efficiency (CE) of both pines at the damaged site were significantly lower than those at the control site. The length of shoots and survivorship of needles of two pines at the damaged site were significantly lower than those at the control site. Especially, at damaged site, growth of shoots and needle longevity of P. koraiensis are larger than those of P. rigida.

The metals we are familiar with(Al, Ag, Au, Cu, Cd, Co, Fe, Ni, Pb, Zn, etc) are common elements and conservative pollutants. Although metals are often vital constituents of the metabolism of living organisms(trace elements}, a number of them are toxic if their concentration exceeds a certain threshold. It has long been recognized that measurements of trace metals in natural waters are often subject to large errors in terms of precision and accuracy. Since 1975 in US and European countries, seawater concentration of many trace metals have been shown to be factors of 10-1,000 lower than those previously accepted. Vertical profiles have been found to be consistent with known biological, physical and/or geochemical processes. These are resulted from major advances in analytical instrumentation and methodology for trace elements, and greater attention has been given to assuring the elimination of contamination during sampling, storage, and analysis.

To estimate association of minerals relating to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus(NIDDM) the contents of essential minerals and toxic heavy metals in the scalp hair were measured during the period from March 1993 to June 1993. The cases were selected 69 (32 male, 37 female) from the patients who visited Kyungpook University Hospital during the period from March 1993 to June 1993 and 74 controls (47 male 27 female) from normal population. zinc, copper, manganese, lead, cadmium and aluminum were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometer(IL. 551). The results were summarized as follows. In NIDDM group, mean contents of zinc and copper were $132.99{\pm}19.66$ ppm, $8.58{\pm}5.07$ ppm respectively; where as $152.51{\pm}46.15$ ppm, $12.48{\pm}6.56$ ppm in control group. The mean of above two mineral content showed significant difference statistically (p<0.01). But, in manganese the content of NIDDM group; $0.44{\pm}0.27$ ppm were significantly higher than the control group; $0.34{\pm}0.18$ ppm(p<0.05). A thesis submitted to the Council of the Graduate School of Kyungpook National University in partial fulfillment of the require ements for the degree of Ph.D. in Medical Science in June 1994. The mean contents of toxic metals - lead, cadmium, aluminum - in NIDDM group were $10.04{\pm}4.60$ ppm, $0.57{\pm}0.12$ ppm, $11.31{\pm}3.98$ ppm; whereas $8.10{\pm}2.45$ ppm, $0.41{\pm}0.23$ ppm, $7.61{\pm}4.16$ ppm in control group. The mean of above three mineral showed significant difference statistically(p<0.01). Cadmium, zinc and copper were selected statistically significant variables with presence of the NIDDM by multiple logistic regression analysis; copper, zinc and cadmium may be associated with NIDDM.

The concentrations in women's hair of essential and toxic elements such as Zn, Ni, Fe, Mn, Cu, Cr, Pb and Cd in residential and factory areas in Pusan were determined, and all the elements were detected from all the samples. It was apparent that employees working in factory areas in Pusan were exposed directly to the essential and toxic heavy matals. This is based on the fact that average concentrations of Ni, Fe, Mn, Cu, Cr, Pb, and Cd in hair samples from women aged 10 to 29 in factory area, who were considered to be main members among women employees, were much higher than those of residential areas. That is, the highest concentrations found in the hair samples taken from women 10 to 29 years old living in factory areas were 110 times higher in Cr (in the women in their 20's), 92 times higher in Pb (in the women in their teens) and 23 times higher in Cd (in the women in their 20's) than those living in residential areas. Furthermore, it was suggested that the heavy metals may be accumulated gradually in human bodies as humans get older, based on the fact that the concentrations of Cr, Pb, and Cd in women living in residential areas were higher in older age groups, although the average contents of these elements in residents from residential areas were similar with those of several foreign countries.
