For determination of separated pesticides by using GC and HPLC, liquid-liquid extraction(LLE) and solid phase extraction(SPE) have been carried out to separate and concentrate the organophophorous pesticides such as Diazinon, Fenitrothion, Phosmet, Phosalon and EPN in environmental water samples. ln determination of pesticides by HPLC/UV, SPE has resulted in higher recovery and more precision than LLE, while in determination of pesticides by GC/FPD, vice versa. HPLC/UV after the pretreatment process of sample by solid phase extraction (SPE-HPLC/UV) has suggested the possibility of determination of pesticides ppb level. ln comparison of detection limit, both SPE-HPLC/UV and LLE-GC/FPD are reasonably suitable for analysis of residue pesticides. ln the respect of the rapidity and the solvent required, SPE-HPLC/UV method has proven to be superior to LLE-GC/FPD.

A simple, quick and reliable analytical method for the confirmation and quantification of propisochlor was developed. The propisochlor was extracted from water, soil and rice (stalks, rice and hull) matrices using acetonitrile, and cleaned up with primary secondary amine and determined by UPLC-MS/MS. The LODs of propisochlor ranged from 0.03 ${\mu}g/kg$ to 0.12 ${\mu}g/kg$, while the LOQs ranged from 0.1 ${\mu}g/kg$ to 0.4 ${\mu}g/kg$ in different matrixes. The mean recoveries of propisochlor at three levels (0.005, 0.01 and 0.05 mg/kg) were in the range of 73.7-94.9% with intra-day relative standard deviations (RSD) of 1.1-13.9% and inter-day $RSD_R$ of 3.3-12.7%. This method is suitable for routine analysis of propisochlor under field conditions. The half-lives of propisochlor in rice stalks, water and soil were 1.7, 1.5 and 2.3 days in Hunan, 5.7, 1.0 and 1.9 days in Anhui and 4.8, 1.0 and 3.1 days in Guangxi.

A sensitive and reproducible method for the flotation-spectrophotometric determination of zirconium is reported. The method is based on the complex formation zirconium and xylenol orange (XO) which is floated in the interface of aqueous phase and n-hexane by vigorous shaking. By discarding the aqueous solution and n-hexane, the adsorbed complex on to the wall of a separating funnel was dissolved in a small volume of methanol solvent and its absorbance was measured at 429 nm. The effect of different parameters such as pH, concentrations of HCl, and XO, and volume of n-hexane flotation dissolvent, standing and shaking time were studied. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 7-120 ng $mL^{-1}$ of zirconium with a correlation coefficient of 0.9991. The limit of detection (LOD) was 5.8 ng $mL^{-1}$. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for seven replicate measurements of 50 and 110 ng $mL^{-1}$ of zirconium were 4.4 and 3.0%, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the determination of zirconium in water samples.

Objectives: We performed simultaneous determination of five constituents by HPLC in Samul-tang (SMT). Additionally, we investigated the immune-stimulatory potential of SMT on specific cellular and humoral immune responses in ovalbumin (OVA)-immunized mice. Methods: Reverse-phase chromatography using a Gemini C18 column operating at $40^{\circ}C$, and photodiode array (PDA) detection at 190-400 nm, were used for quantification of the five components of SMT. Mobile phase using a gradient flow consisted of two solvent systems. Solvent A was 1.0% (v/v) aqueous acetic acid and solvent B was acetonitrile with 1.0% (v/v) acetic acid. C57BL/6 mice were immunized intraperitoneally with OVA/alum ($100{\mu}g/200{\mu}g$) on days 1, 8, and 15. The extract of SMT (1000 mg/kg) was given to mice orally for 21 days (from day 1 to day 21). At day 22, OVA-, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- and concanavalin A (Con A)-stimulated splenocyte proliferation and OVA-specific and total antibodies were measured in plasma. Results: Calibration curves were acquired with $r^2$>0.9999, and the relative standard deviation (RSD, %) for intra- and inter-day precision were both less than 3.5%. The recovery was in the range of 95.69-115.12%, with an RSD less than 6.0%. The contents of five components in SMT were 1.08-15.30 mg/g. SMT significantly enhanced Con A-induced splenocyte proliferation in OVA-immunized mice (p<0.01). Also, SMT significantly enhanced OVAspecific IgG, IgG1 and total IgM levels in plasma compared with the OVA-immunized group. Conclusions: The established method will be applied for the quantification of major components and immunestimulating activity in OVA-immunized mouse model of SMT.

SIMS(Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry)는 다른 표면 분석장비와 비교하여^g , pp m,^g , pp b 단위의 미량분석이 가능한 장비로서, 특히 depth Profiling을 위한 dynamic SIMS는 Mass Spectrometer의 종류에 따라 Quadrupole SIMS (Q-SIMS)와, Magnetic Sector SIMS (M-SIMS)로 분류된다. 한편, Q-SIMS와 달리 M-SIMS의 경우, Transmission을 높여 주기 위해 Sample Holder에 수 keV의 bias를 걸어 주는데, 이로 인하여 분석 원소에 대한 Sensitivity가 향상되어 지는 반면, RSF의 변화와 같은 분석상의 Artifact가 발생하게 된다. 일반적으로 Q-SIMS의 경우에는 RSF의 RSD(Relative Standard Deviation)가 1%이내에서 보고되고 있지만 M-SIMS에 있어서는 이러한 Deviation이 M-SIMS보다 크게 나타난다. 이 차이는 주로 Sample Holder와 Immersion Lens 사이에 형성되는 Magnetic Field의 왜곡과 Spectrometer의 문제로부터 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 Sample Holder의 종류 및 holder so window 위치에 따라 RSF의 차이를 측정하고 그 data를 RS/1 통계 Package를 이용하여 계량적으로 검증하였으며, 그 차이의 원인과 대책을 제시하고자 한다. 실험에 사용된 Sample은 Si(100) p-type Wafer에 Boron을 이온 주입하여 제작하였다. 이온 주입 장비는 Varian E-500HP이며, 5.0E13 ions/cm2의 dose양을 80keV의 Energy로 각각 7도와 22도의 Tilt와 Twist Angle로 이온 주입을 하였다. SIMS분석에 사용된 Sample Holder는 각각 3 Hole, 9 Hole Type HOlder이며, 분석은 Cameca IMS-6f를 사용하여 B에 대한 Matrix Peak으로 28Si++를 얻었다. 실험 결과 3 Hole Type Sample Holder의 경우 RSF의 RSD는 5.84%, 9Hle Type Sample Holder의 경우는 14.3%로 나타났으나 분석 Window의 위치에 따르는 Grouping을 실시한 결과, 3 Hole Type Sample Holder의 경우 1.2%, 9Hole Type Sample Holder의 경우 9.8%로 RSF의 변화가 감소하였다. 이러한 Deviation은 Sample Holder를 Mount시킬 때 세 개의 Screw를 이용하여 Immersion Lens와의 평형을 잡아주기 때문에 발생하며, 이 Munting을 정확히 해줌으로써 RSF의 변화를 줄일 수 있으나, 실제로 완벽한 Mounting이 불가능하기 때문에 RSF를 일정하게 하기 위해서는 Sample Holder so Window의 취치를 일정하게 설정한 후 분석을 실시해야 한다고 판단된다.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the diet and health status of elderly women according to the family type. Methods: A total of 307 elderly women participated in this study were divided into one of three groups according to their family type: residing with spouse (RSP; n=88), residing with son or daughter (RSD; n=119), and residing alone (RAL; n=100). Chisquare test was used to assess dietary habits and health status of the subjects by the family types. Results: Results demonstrated significant associations between eating regular meals, person preparing meals, coffee intake, and bone fracture experience and family type. Among the three groups, the RSP and RAL groups had a higher percentage for preparing meals by themselves (p<0.001) than the RSD group. The RAL group had a lower percentage for eating regular meals (p<0.01) but a higher percentage for bone fracture experience (p<0.05) than the other groups. There were no significant differences in monthly allowance, self-estimated health status, physical activity, exercise, drinking, and dietary habits such as frequency of consumption of dairy, beans, eggs, fish, meat, fruits, and vegetables among the three groups. Conclusions: The results showed that elderly women residing alone without a son, daughter, or spouse had more diet-related and health problems such as irregular meals and high bone fracture experience. These findings suggested that elderly women residing alone need more attention and support.
