Whole column coldtrapping(WCC) on a fused silica capillary (FSCC)combined with GC/MS analysis was evaluated for use in the investigation of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) in indoor air. Research had indicated that a temperature of $-80^{\circ}C$ is optimal for WCC. Samples were analyzed on a $50m{\times}0.2mm$ cross-linked 5% phenylmethylsilicone fused silica column. Liquid nitrogen was used as the coolant for the peak resolution significantly. The analysis can be performed quickly and conveniently. More than 112 of VOCs were determined in the samples from three typical indoor environment including: (1) a room which had just been decorated involving building materials and paints; (2)a kitchen used for Chinese cooking, and (3) a room had tobacco smoke. The method is could be readily applied to rapid sample screening for VOCs contamination surveys or initial investigations with its valid and simple sampling and analytical technique.

To develop a simple, rapid and simultaneous analytical method of phenolic compounds using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrophometer (GC/Ms), this experiment was carried out to search the retention times of capillary columns and the characteristics of fragment ions in electron impact mass spectra. Most of trimethylsilyl derivatives and underivatized phenolic compounds were separated very well on three kinds of capillary columns(HP-1), Ultra-2 and HP-35). Quantitiative determination of phenolic compounds was achieved by internal standards (p-hydroxybenzoic acid iopropyl ester, p-hydroxybenzoic acid ethyl ester). Calibration plts were linear in the investigated range, and the limits of detection were about 5 ng at split mode method. When analyzed by three columns, theseparation times were fairly constant on two nonpolar columns, but a few compounds showed slightly different separation order by the itnermediate polar HP-35 column. The important characteristic patterns of TMS derivatives of phenolic compounds on the EI/MS spectrra appeared at the base peak of [M-15]+ ion and presented at high abundance in most TMS derivatives of phenoloc compounds. [M]+, [M-CH3-COO]+, [M-Si(CH3)4]+ and [M-Si(CH3)4 -CH3]+ also observed in mass spectra of these compounds . Although several compounds have the same retention times on GC column, it might be possible to identify these compounds by the different patternsof mass frgement ions. The TMS derivatives, thus , provide additional information for identification of phenolic compounds in biological systems.

The Formation of acrylamide was studied in Maillard model reaction systems based on asparagine-glucose. The mixture of asparagine and glucose in equal molar ratio, and then heated at 125, 150, 175 and $200^{\circ}C$ for 10, 20 and 30 minute, respectively. The reaction products were extracted with ethyl acetate and methanol, and then isolated and detected on FFAP capillary column and HP-5MS 5% phenyl methyl siloxane column by using GC/MS. Acrylamide was detected only from methanol extracts and on FFAP capillary column, at retention time 23.53 min., and the detection limit was 4.6 ng. Acrylamide content mainly increased with increasing temperature and processing time till $175^{\circ}C$, therefore, maximal acrylamide formation occurred at $175^{\circ}C$ for 10 minute ($116{\mu}g/g$), while, above $175^{\circ}C$, higher temperatures or prolonged processing times caused a decrease of acrylamide levels, finally disappeared at $200^{\circ}C$ for 30 minute. Three major compounds were identified as 1,3-dihydroxypropanone, 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyrane-4-one and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, and three minor compounds also as 5-methylfurfural, 2-acetylpyrrole and N,N-dimethylcyclohexamine, from ethyl acetate or methanol extracts on FFAP or HP-5MS capillary column.

The lignan compounds used were deoxyschizandrin, gomisin N, schizandrin, wuweizisu C, gomisin A, angeloylgomisin H and tigloylgomisin H which were isolated from fruits of Schisandra chinensis BAILLON and identified with GC/MS(EI, 70eV), 1H-NMR(300MHz) and IR. The GC column used was SPB-1 fused silica capillary$(0.25mm\;ID{\times}30m,\;Supelco)$, and the column oven temperature was programmed from $200^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ at the rate of $4^{\circ}C$ per minute. The linearities between concentration and FID response were maintained in $2{\sim}500ppm$ of deoxyschizandrin and wuweizisu C and in $5{\sim}500ppm$ of gomisin N, schizandrin, gomisin A, angeloylgomisin H and tigloylgomisin H. The contents of lignan compounds in fruits of S. chinensis BAILLON produced at Moo-ju area were analyzed by the GC method: the values obtained of schizandrin and gomisin N were 6.5 and 5.9mg/g respectively, and those of gomisin A, wuweizisu C, angeloylgomisin H, deoxyschizandrin and tigloylgomisin H were $0.5{\sim}1.6mg/g$.

A GC/MS method was developed to analyze phenolic acid extract from tobacco leaf. Extracted acids were converted to their methyl esters by refluxing with 3M hydrogen chloride in methanol, and the esters were reacted with his (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide plus 10% trimethylchlorosilane to silylate the phenolic groups. Derivatives of standard salicylic, p-hydroxybenzoic, vanillic, gentisic, p-coumaric, syringic, ferulic, and sinapic acids prepared by this procedure were analyzed by GC/MS on $20m{\times}0.2mm$ column of SE-54 glass capillary. GC/MS analysis of the extract from tobacco leaf revealed the presence of salicylic, p-hydtoxybenzoic, vanillic, gentisic, protocatechuic, p-coumaric, syringic, gallic, ferulic, caffeic, sinapic, and quinic acids, respectively. The quantitative analysis of these phenolic acids were achieved by using multiple ion selection technique.

Improved sample introduction system has been investigated for the determination of volatile organic compounds in water using a purge & trap preconcentration apparatus and a capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The present limitations associated with the moisture control module and cryorefocusing system suggested by EPA were discussed. To solve the problems such as improper separation of peaks due to the adsorption of water and contamination of purge & trap system, a more efficient connection system between the purge & trap apparatus and the gas chromatograph was introduced and the optimum operational conditions were suggested. A carbopack B/carboxen 1000 and 1001 trap was used for the purge & trap procedure and a custom made crosslinked dimethyldiphenylpolysiloxane capillary column was used for the separation of compounds. Accuracy and precision of the method suggested in this report were examined and the method detection limit of each compound was proposed for the simultaneous determination of 54 volatile organic compounds in water.

This study was carried out to separate and identify the acidic compounds in tobacco leaves. Izmir tobacco leaves was extracted with isopropyl ether and the extract was concentrated. The concentrate was extracted with 6% NaHCO3 aqueous solution. The aqueous extract was acidified with sulfuric acid, and extracted with diethyl ether. The acidic material was fractionated on silicic acid column using a benzene-methanol mixture with a stepwise increasing methanol concentration. The resulting fractions were esterified with diazomethane, and then identified by GC, GC/MS using SPB -5 fused silica capillary column. Most of acidic compounds in Izmir tobacco leaves were elected from fraction B which was benzene-methanol(98 : 2) mixture on silicic acid column chromatography. The identified acidic compounds of Izmir tobacco leaves were 18 saturated acids, 8 unsaturated acids, 5 dicarboxylic acids, 13 aromatic acids and 7 terpenoid acids.
