The three electrode system was used to detect the pesticide fenitrothion ($C_9H_{12}NO_5PS$. MW=277.24) using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV). The working electrode was mercury immobilized on a carbon nanotube paste electrode (Hg-CNTPE). At the optimized condition, the limit of detection (LoD) was 0.6 ppt ($2.16{\times}10^{-12}\;M$), and the relative standard deviation was 0.035% (n=15). And there is more sensitive in detecting fenitrothion than common type carbon nanotube paste electrode. When it was implanted into the brain of live fish (carp), the existence of fenitrothion was measured without any destruction or damage of tissue.

Bio assay of mercury and cadmium ions were searched using voltammetric analysis using DNA doped carbon nanotube paste electrodes (DCP). The square-wave stripping voltammetryic optimized results indicated working ranges of 1-10.0 $ngL^{-1}$ and 20-100 $ugL^{-1}$, Hg(II) Cd(II) within an accumulation time of 120 seconds, in 0.1-M phosphate buffer solutions of pH 6.3. The relative standard deviations of 5 $ngL^{-1}$ Hg(II) and Cd(II) that observed were 0.14 and 0.22% (n=12), respectively, using optimum conditions. The low detection limit (S/N) was pegged at 0.1 $ngL^{-1}$ ($4.9{\times}10^{-11}M$) Hg(II) and 0.2 $ngL^{-1}$ ($1.77{\times}10^{-10}M$) Cd(II). The developed methods can be applied to assays in biological fish kidneys and water samples.

For ex-vivo diabetic control, the voltammetric diagnosis of glucose (GU) was conducted with a modified carbon nanotube paste electrode, using handheld analytical circuits. The optimum analytical conditions were attained within the 0.5-4.0 ug/L working range and at the 0.06 ug/L detection limit, which system was interfaced to the feedback circuits and was applied to human urine for diabetic-patient diagnosis. It can be used for ex-vivo flow control analysis, vascular flow detection and other medicinal assays. The equations of the patients' urine are y=36.65x+12.13 and $R^2=0.987$, those of the healthy person of y= 2.5x+10.9 and $R^2=0.928$ (patients: 118 ug/L; healthy person: 12.34 ug/L).

생활수준이 향상되고, 환경오염이 가속되면서 환경에 대한 관심이 더욱 증대되고 있다. 수질센서의 경우, 그 측정 항목이 매우 다양하고, 높은 정밀도를 요하고 있을 뿐만 아니라 지속적인 실시간 모니터링을 요구하고 있어, 기술적으로 해결해야 할 문제가 많이 남아 있다. 또한, 현재 약 15% 정도로 매우 낮은 국산화율을 보이고 있어, 대부분의 주요 센서들이 수입에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 수질을 측정하기 위한 센서는 크게 두 가지 형태로 나누어 질 수 있는데, 하나는 flow injection analysis (FIA) 방식이며, 다른 하나는 Probe 방식의 센서이다. 본 발표에서는 수질 센서에 대한 최근 국내 기술 동향과, 수질 모니터링을 위한 Lab-on-a-chip 형 암모니아 분석 칩, Probe 형 중금속 센서 연구 개발 결과를 요약하고자 한다. 암모니아 분석 칩은 마이크로 유체 소자 내에서 Berthelot reaction을 유도하고, 흡광법에 의하여 물 속에 존재하는 암모니아를 간접적으로 측정하는 방법이다. 또한, 중금속 센서로 일반적인 working electrode 소재로 사용되는 독성이 있는 Hg 보다 친환경적인 개발된 bismuth-modified carbon nanotube와 같은 Bi계 복합소재를 적용하여 물 속에 존재하는 저 농도의 Pb, Cd, Zn을 측정 분석할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 분석칩과 중금속 센서를 이용하여 하천에서 샘플링된 물에서의 암모니아 및 중금속 농도를 각각 분석할 수 있었다.
