The essential oils from the roots of Codonopsis lanceolata and the cultivated callus were analysed and compared by gaschromatography-mass spectrometry. In the experimental study of cell culture, it appeared that 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid in the culture medium induced higher production of essential oils in the callus than indole acetic acid. The growth of callus was inhibited by illumination of the light. The production of essential oil in cultured cells was increased by the addition of biosynthetic precursors. The essential oils from the roots of Codonopsis lanceolata and the cultured callus showed different compositions. Tetradecanoic acid, 1,1,-dimethoxyl 4-methoxy phenol, 9,12-octadecanoic acid and hexadecanoic acid were identified as main components of the cultured callus oil.

A solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for the extraction and analysis of methyl-tert-butyl ether has been described. methyl-tert-butyl ether was extracted from aqueous solution using SPME fiber coated polydimethylsiloxane and analysed by GC-MS with capillary column. Extraction parameters and chromatographic separation conditions were optimized. The applied method represented good analytical performance in terms of precision (3-8%, RSD) and accuracy(93-102%, mean recovery) with a method detection limit of 0.03 ppb.

The volatiles formed from the reactions of L-ascorbic acid with L-alanine at 5 different pH (5, 6, 7, 8, or 9) and $140{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr was performed using solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) analysis were identified to be 25 different kinds. The reaction between L-ascorbic acid and L-alanine led mainly to the formation of pyrazines. Many of these were alkylpyrazines, such as 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine, 3,5-diethyl-2-methylpyrazine, methylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-6-methylpyrazine, and 2,3-diethyl-5-methylpyrazine, other compounds identified were furans, phenols, benzoquinones, 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine, and 2-methylbenzoxazole. The studies showed that furans, such as furfural and benzofuran were formed mainly at acidic pH. In contrast, higher pH values could promote the production of pyrazines.

Parathion is an organophosphate pesticide being legally applied for the purpose of agriculture and is being manufactured in Korea. A gas chromatography/mass spectrometric method was developed for the determination of parathion urinary metabolite, p-nitrophenol. p-Nitrophenol was extracted from weak acidic urine, and then measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (selected ion monitoring). The recovery of pnitrophenol in the overall procedure was 88.2%. The detection limit of the assay was 1.0 $\mu$ g/L based upon assayed urine of 2.0 mL. The method was applied to the determination of p-nitrophenol in urine of workers of a parathion industry. Spot urines of workers of a parathion industry were sampled at the end of shift and pnitrophenol was analyzed using above developed method. p-Nitrophenol could be detected in all of the urine samples at concentrations varying from 3.0 to 681 $\mu$ g/L.

Alkylpyrazines in snow crab cooker effluent(SCCE) and effluent concentrate(EC) were quantitatively analyzed and compared by simultaneous steam distillation-solvent extraction/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry(SDE/GC/MS). A total of 11 pyrazines were identified in both SCCE and EC. Amounts of tetramethylpyrazine, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, trimethylpyrazine, and 2,6-dimethylpyrazine were 23.0, 21.1, 13.8, and 13.3 times higher, respectively, in EC than those in SCCE. The total amount of pyrzines in EC (1664.0${\pm}$171.1ng/g) was 8.1 times higher than that in SCCE(204.5${\pm}$32.2). The compounds, ethylpyrazine and 2-ethyl-3,6-dimethylpyrazine, were only detected in EC.

셀룰로오스를 Ca(OH)2와 Ni(OH)2를 Pot에 넣고 동시에 밀링 공정을 실시한 후, 열을 가함으로써 수소를 얻었다. X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry/ mass spectrometry (TG/MS), gas chromatography (GC) 장비를 이용해 수소 발생량 및 촉매의 역할에 관하여 실험하였다. 촉매 Ni(OH)2를 대신한 NiO 또는 Ni를 사용했을 경우 사용된 촉매에 따른 수소의 발생량의 차이를 보였는데 이는 촉매의 사이즈가 수소 발생량과 관련이 있음을 보여주었다. 한편, Ca(OH)2를 대신하여 Li(OH)를 사용하였을 때 수소 발생 온도가 약$400\sim500\;^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 $350\sim400\;^{\circ}C$의 범위로 낮아져 보다 낮은 온도에서 수소 회수가 가능하였다. 이때 발생한 CO와 CO2는 수 ppm정도로 적은 양이었다.

The essential oil fraction was extracted from the aerial parts of the plant by steam distillation method and its composition was analyzed by GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) which led to the identification of 43 compounds. Dehydroelsholtzia ketone (56.81%) and elsholtzia ketone (30.05%) were identified as the predominant components of this oil. The antibacterial activities of the essential oil fraction were assessed by micro-dilution tests against antibioticsusceptible and -resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella enteritidis, and S. typhimurium. The oil inhibited most of the tested strains significantly resulting MICs (minimum inhibiting concentrations) between 2 mg/ml and >16 mg/ml. In most cases of this study Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus showed higher sensitivity to this oil than Salmonella strains.

Korean cabbage, a member of the Brassicaceae family which also includes cauliflower, mustard, radish, and turnip plants, is a crucial leafy vegetable crop. Korean cabbage is harvested after completion of the leaf heading process and is often prepared for use in "baechu kimchi", a traditional Korean food. Many of the components in Korean cabbage are essential for proper human nutrition; these components can be divided into two groups: primary metabolites, which include carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, and organic acids, and secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, carotenoids, sterols, phenolic acids, alkaloids, and glucosinolates (GSLs). Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, this study examined the variety of volatile compounds (including isothiocyanates) contained in Korean cabbage and its seed, which resulted in the identification of 16 and 12 volatile compounds, respectively. The primary volatile compound found in the cabbage was ethyl linoleolate (~23%), while 4,5-epithiovaleronitrile (~46%) was the primary volatile component in the seed.
