  • Based on solid phase extraction, gas chromatography and mass spectrometry procedure for determining phenol and its derivatives in natural water was presented. In solid phase extraction, three types of techniques using solid phase adsorption material were treated with acid and salt, and converted second portion of acetyl derivatives. Under the these condition, extraction efficiency and detection ability dependent on extraction methods were discussed. Obtained results using optimized solid phase extraction techniques showed more convenience, simplifier and lower cost than the conventional analytical methods with holding wide dynamic range and lower detection limits.

  • The beneficial effects of digested onion extracts have been assessed by antimutagenic and anticancer activities by Ames test and SRB test. The total phenolic acids and flavonoids in onion extracts were determined. Red and yellow onions contain more phenolic acids and flavonoids than those in the white onion. Digested, extracts showed antimutagenic activity and anticancer activity, and it appears that the antimutagenic activity of digested extracts of onion against mutagens and anticancer activities were related to their phenols and flavonoids contents. Moreover, the extracts inhibited the proliferation of four human tumorigenic cell lines such as HT-29 (colon), MCF-7 (breast), DU-145 (prostate) and HepG2 (liver), in a dose-dependent manner. Phenolic acids and flavonoids caused oxidative damage to the cancer cell lines and induced apoptosis. Generally, red onion extracts showed effective antimutagenic and anticancer activity, and the digested red onion extracts elicited stronger antimutagenic activity than those of the onion extracts without digestion.

  • Various phenol derivatives were synthesized in a one-pot reaction from MBH acetates and sodium diethyl oxalacetate via a [4C+2C] cyclization protocol. In addition, some pyridine derivatives could also be synthesized using the same starting materials, by isolating the $S_N2^{\prime}$ reaction intermediate and performing the cyclization with $NH_4OAc$.

  • Two varieties, Lasoda and Sebago potatoes, were studied. Different cooking methods, conventional oven baking at $218^{\circ}C$ and microwave oven baking, have been used to compare the retention of the phenolic compounds. Peeled cortex samples of fresh and cooked potatoes were analyzed for total phenols, phenolic constituents, and moisture loss. Phenolic content was higher in fresh potatoes than in cooked potatoes. Laasoda had higher phenolic content (3. 63mg) than Sebago (1. 71mg). Potatoes with higher phenols (Lasoda) also had larger quantities of chlorogenic acid. There was a greater moisture loss in conventional oven baking potatoes than in microware oven.

  • In order to standardize the ${\sigma}^*,\;{\rho}^*$ is taken as unity for the benzoic acids by analogy with the fact that ${\rho}$ of benzoic acids in the ground state is taken as unity. The $pK_{\alpha}^*$ of many benzoic acid derivatives are determined by UV spectroscopy and fluorescence spectral analysis whenever possible. The ${\sigma}^*$ constants are derived from the Hammett equation utilizing these $pK_{\alpha}^*$ values and the $pK_{\alpha}^*$ of the benozic acid derivatives showed better correlationship with ${\sigma}^*$ than ${\sigma},\;{\sigma}^+\;and\;{\sigma}^-$ as expected. From these ${\sigma}^*$ values, ${\rho}^*$ of the phenol derivatives was calculated to be 1.28. The new standardized ${\sigma}^*$ values are calculated from the $pK_{\alpha}^*$ values of phenols since more accurate and abundant data are available for phenols than the benzoic acid derivatives.

  • Voltammetric determination of phenol derivatives, such as phenol, o-, m-, and p-cresols was studied with a β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) modified-carbon paste electrode composing of the graphite powder and Nujol oil. Phenol derivatives were chemically deposited via the complex formation with β-CD by immersing the CME into a sample solution. The resulting surfaces were characterized with cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. Treating the CME with 1 M nitric acid for five sec after a measurement could regenerate the electrode surface. Linear sweep and differential pulse voltammograms were recorded for the above system to optimize the experimental parameters for analysing the phenol derivatives. In this case, the detection limit for phenols was 5.0×10-7M for 25 min of the deposition time with differential pulse voltammetry. The relative standard deviation was ±5.2% of 3.0×10-6M (four repetitions). The interference effect of the following organic compounds was also investigated; Bezoic acid, hippuric acid, o-, m-, and p-methylhippuric acid. Adding the organic compounds into the sample solution reduces the peak current of the phenols to about 25%.

  • In the present study, we aimed to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of palm kernel meal (PKM), as a fermentable carbohydrate source, on the growth performance, meat quality, concentration of odorous compound, and changes in bacterial community in swine manure. Swine (average initial body weight of $51.36{\pm}1.02kg$) were fed diet which included three levels of PKM (0, 2 and 4%), and their manure samples were collected from the slurry pit. Growth performance and meat quality were not affected by PKM treatments (p > 0.05). Levels of phenols and indoles were decreased in the 2 and 4% PKM treatments compared to 0% PKM (control; p < 0.05). Especially, compared to the control, the 2% PKM group showed decreased levels of phenols by 35% and indoles by 34%. Among the dominant bacterial genera, the main change in relative abundance occurred in those belonging to the Firmicutes phylum in PKM treatments. Terrisporobacter and Clostridium were decreased in the PKM groups compared to the control. However, the relative abundance of Intestinibacter, AM406061_g, Coprococcus_g2, Phascolarcotobacterium, EF401875_g, Lactobacillus, and Streptococcus were increased in the PKM group compared to control. Taken together, administration of PKM had a beneficial effect on reducing production of odorous compounds in swine manure, possibly by modulating the communities of predominantly carbohydrate-utilizing bacteria in the large intestine of swine.

  • A gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) method was developed for determining 17 hazard compounds containing phenols, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and pesticides in surface water. A 1.0 L surface water sample was placed in a separatory funnel and saturated with NaCl, and the solution was extracted with 40 mL of methylene chloride. Under the established condition, the lowest quantification limit was 1.0-10 ng/L and the relative standard deviations were less than 22%. The method was used to analyze 70 surface water samples collected from 35 regions in Gum-River. The samples revealed the compounds concentrations in the range of 1.1-26,604 ng/L. Maximum concentrations of compounds detected were not exceeded guidelines established in other countries. The developed method may be valuable for monitoring hazards in water.
