We performed chromosomal aberration assay in Chinese Hamster Lung (CHL) cells in vitro to evaluate theclastogenicity of 11 synthetic chemicals which were listed in Toxicity Evaluation Program of Ministry of Environment of Republic of Korea in 1996. All of the chemicals were carried out MTT assay to determine the 50% cell growth inhibition concentration. All compounds were tested with and without metabolic activation system. Benzoyl chloride revealed positive result at $43\;\mu\textrm{g}/m{\ell}$ in the presence of metabolic activation system, and at 30.8, 61.5 and $123\;\mu\textrm{g}/m{\ell}$ in the absence of metabolic activation system. And p-phenoxy ethanol was observed as positive with the metabolic activation system, but negative without metabolic activation system. Especially 2-propyn-l-ol showed high frequency of pulverization and showed critical difference of cytotoxicity between with and without S9 mixture. Pulverizatiuon is not included in the frequency of structural aberration in our criteria. Dicyclopentadiene, methacrylic acid, aa-dimethylbenzyl hydroperoxide, benzylbutyl phthalate, and p-chlorophenal were revealed negative results.esults.

While commercial polystyrene-based ion exchange membranes have simple manufacturing processes, they also possess poor durability due to their brittleness. Poly(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate with hydrophilic side chains of poly(ethylene glycol) was used as a co-monomer to make the membranes have improved flexibility. Hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity of the anion exchange membranes were able to be adjusted by varying the chain lengths of the poly(ethylene glycol). For the preparation of the anion exchange membranes, a porous PE substrate was immersed into monomer solutions and thermally polymerized. The prepared membranes were subsequently reacted with trimethylamine to produce anion exchange functional groups, Quaternary ammonium salts. The prepared pore-filled anion exchange membranes were evaluated in terms of ion exchange capacity, electric resistance, elongation at break and water uptake.
