Diagnostic membranes which were made of polyphosphazenes were prepared for the measurements of blood glucose concentration. The effects of possible interferents in human blood on the glucose concentration measurements were examined. Above those interferents, ascorbic acid (AA) showed 3~9% higher K/S values compared to the standard plasma solution, tolbutamide (TA) showed 11~13% lower K/S values than those of plasma, triglycerides and bovine serum albumin (BSA) showed 20~25% lower K/S values than those of plasma. However, most of the interferents except above materials did not show any serious effects on the blood glucose measurements.

The new types of phosphazene diagnostic membranes have been prepared for blood glucose measurements. The possible interferents in human blood were sorted into 4 different series and their effects on the glucose measurements were examined. In case of series I which indicates the lowest concentration, most of them did not show any serious effects on the blood glucose measurements, but only ascorbic acid (AA) showed 5~8% higher values compared to K/S values of the standard solution. In case of series II, all of four interferents showed 3~4% lower K/S values than those of plasma, but they showed consistent values by concentration variation. In case of series III, all of three interferents did not show any big differences compared to the standard solution. In case of series IV which indicates the highest concentration, two interferents showed 11~15% lower K/S values than the standard values, however they did not any serious effect on the blood glucose measurements.

Diagnostic membranes which were made of multi-layered gelatin films were prepared to measure the concentration of glucose in solution. It was found that the maximum diffusion rate of glucose had a linear relationship toward the glucose concentration. The effects of possible interferents in human blood on the reaction between glucose and reductive enzymes were examined. As a result, most of the interferents did not affect seriously on the maximum diffusion rate of glucose.

A new method for enzyme immobilization has been developed to remove interference by potential interferents in body fluids. Instead of using electron mediators, we chose direct hydrogen peroxide measurement route. Extremely hydrogen peroxide-selective polymer was coated as an inner membrane to exclude interferents and then glucose oxidase(GOx) was entrapped by electropolymerization of inert monomers. There was no solvent casting step throughout the whole fabrication procedure but all membranes on Pt-Ir electrode were formed by electropolymerization. Thus, membrane thickness, quantity of enzyme loaded and can be controlled by electrochemical parameters. As a result, reproducibility of biosensor characteristics becomes remarkably improved in terms of mass production.

A method for detecting chlorine dioxide in drinking water was developed by the modified iodometric titration. This method requires prior removal of interfering chemicals such as chlorine and/or other oxidants: the interferents are removed by $N_2$ purging. Chlorite and chlorate were successfully quantified by the ion chromatography-conductivity detection. Stabilized chlorine dioxide that is commercially available contained only traces of chlorine dioxide (0.01-0.09%). In reality, its main component is chlorite.

A suituable choice of supporting electrolyte medium for trace level determinations of chromium(VI) by differential pulse polarography is described. A comparative study suggests that sodium borate buffer is superior to ammonium acetate, ammonium tartrate, and especially to NaF which was recently known to be one of the most proper medium for the purpose. With 0.01 M borate, the best combination of high sensitivity, well-defined base line, and freedom from common interferents was attained. With $5.0{\times}10^{-7}$M Cr(VI), tenfold excesses of Cu(II) and Fe(III), and a five hundred-fold excess of $Cl^-$ do not change the peak current by more than about 1%. And the detection limit was $5.0{\times}10^{-8}$M Cr(VI).

The spectrophotometric determination method of scandium with eriochrome cyanine R (ECR) and the composition ratio of the complex were investigated in the presence of surfactants. A volume of 5 mL of 1.0×$10^{-3}$ M ECR and 10 mL of 2.0×$10^{-4}$ M CTMAB are necessary for the determination of 1.0×$10 ^{-7}$ ~ 3.0×$10^{-6}$ M Sc(III) at pH 6.5. The apparent molar absorption coefficient of the Sc(III)-ECR-CTMAB, ternary complex at 610 nm is 5.6×$10^5$ $mol^{-1}cm{-1}$L and its detection limit is 1.0×$10^{-7}$ M. Separation studies were conducted by the column method. The effect of pH, elution solution and the influence of rare earth elements as interferents was discussed. Their separation was carried out in 0.1 M HCl-50% methanol solution and 1.0 M HCl media. The method was applied for the determination of Sc(III) in monazite.

One of the good ways to raise the rate of the electrochemical reaction is to broaden the effective surface area of the electrode by developing cylindrical nano-pores on the surfaces. The numerous pores of several nanometer in diameter can be used to enhance a specific faradaic reaction so that the nano-porous structure attract keen attention in terms of implication of new bio/chemical sensors, in which no chemical modification is involved. Amperometric glucose sensor is a representative example that needs the selective enhancement of glucose oxidation over the current due to physiological interferents such as ascorbic acid. The present paper reports how the ascorbic acid and glucose diffuse around the nano-porous surface by simulation study, for which 2D-FDM (Finite Difference Method) was adopted. The results of the simulation not only consist with those from electrochemical experiments but also reveal valuable potential for more advanced application of the nano-porous electrode.

The response characteristics of a new biosensor, which was developed by co-immobilisation of chicken liver tissue and ferrocene in a carbon paste matrix for the amperometric determination of hydrogen peroxide, was evaluated. In the range of electrode potential observed ( - 0.5∼ + 0.05 V vs Ag/AgCl), the bioelectrode showed the response time ($t_{95%}$) as low as 13 sec and the detection limit of $5.1{\times}10^{-5}$ M, and exhibited a good selectivity in the case of the addition of the possible interferents tested. Also it offered a high biocatalytic stability and opened up the possibility for the construction of a mediatorless biosensor.

A new enzyme electrode was developed by co-mobilization of chicken small intestinal tissue and ferrocene in a carbon paste for the determination of hydrogen peroxide, and its electrochemical properties are evaluated. The electrode showed the response time(t100%) as short as 3 set, the detection limit of 5.0${\times}$10-5 M,and a good selectivity for the possible interferents tested. The electrode also offered a good linearity in calibration, a higher biocatalytic stability and a larger responding signal as compared with the other animal or plant tissue based sensors.
