  • 본 연구에서는 최근 산림소득작물로 재배면적이 급증하고 있는 오미자를 대상으로 일반 농경지와 산림농업지에 살포된 3종의 농약을 대상으로 행방을 비교 평가하였다. 농약살포후 초기 유출수에서만 미량으로 농약성분이 검출되었을 뿐 그 외의 유출수에서는 검출한계미만 수준으로 농약성분이 검출되었다. 토양 중 fenarimol과 chlorothalonil은 처리후 30일째부터 검출한계 미만으로 나타났으나, ethoprophos는 처리후 135일째부터 검출한계 미만으로 나타났다. 수확한 오미자 생재를 대상으로 fenarimol, chlorothalinol, 및 ethoprophos의 오미자 작물에 대한 잔류 정도를 조사한 결과, 조사대상 3종의 농약 모두 검출한계 미만으로 검출되었다. 일반 농경지 보다 산림농업재배지에서 토양중 잔류량이 더 높게 나타난 것은 100% 수광조건인 일반 농경지에 비해 90% 울폐도를 가진 산림농업 재배지에서 광분해도가 더 낮았던 점 그리고 농약성분이 산림농업지에서 비교적 풍부한 fulvic acid와 humic acid와의 흡착량이 더 많았기 때문으로 추정된다.

  • 본 연구는 강산성차아염소산수(SAHW)와 초음파(UW)를 병용한 조미오징어 반가공품의 미생물 오염도 저감 기술을 개발하고자 수행되었다. SAHW의 유효염소농도는 $69.67{\pm}0.58ppm$, ORP는 $1071.33{\pm}4.16mV$, pH는 $2.79{\pm}0.05$이었다. 오징어 반가공품을 중량대비 20배의 SHS에 120분간 침지하였을 때 일반세균은 1.49 log CFU/g, 황색포도상구균은 1.32 log CFU/g 감소하였으며, 대장균은 검출한계 이하로 감소하였다. 오징어 반가공품 중량대비 10배의 SAHW에 120분간 침지한 경우, 일반세균은 2.69 log CFU/g, 황색포도상구균은 1.74 log CFU/g 감소하였으며, 20배의 SAHW에 120분간 침지한 경우, 일반세균은 3.62 log lCFU/g, 황색포도상구균은 3.22 log CFU/g 감소하였으며, 대장균은 검출되지 않아 SAHW가 같은 유효염소농도의 SHS보다 살균력이 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. SAHW 단독 처리만으로는 만족할 만한 미생물 저감효과를 얻을 수 없었기에 조미오징어 반가공품을 SAEW에 1차 침지 처리한 후, SAHW에 2차 침지 처리한 결과, 오징어 반가공품 중량 대비 20배의 SAEW로 60분 처리한 후, SAHW로 처리하였을 때는 중량대비 10배, 120분 처리, 중량대비 20배, 90분 처리로 일반세균수는 약 4.0 log CFU/g, 황색포도상구균은 규제치(log 2.0 CFU/g 이하) 이하로 감소하였으며 대장균은 검출되지 않았다. 초음파 세정기에 오징어 반가공품과 중량대비 20배의 TW, SHS, SAHW를 각각 넣어 UW 처리한 후 미생물 오염도를 조사한 결과, SAHW로 60분간 처리하였을 때 일반세균은 검출한계(< 1.00 log CFU/g) 이하로 감소하였으며 황색포도상구균은 규제치 이하로 감소하여 가장 좋은 저감효과를 나타내었다. 대장균의 경우, SAHW 10분간 처리로도 검출한계 이하로 감소하여 SAHW와 UW의 병용이 조미오징어 반가공품 미생물 저감화에 가장 효과가 좋은 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • Cu (II) detection is of great importance owing to its significant function in various biological processes. In this report, we developed a novel coumarin-based chemosensor bearing the salicylaldimine unit (2) for $Cu^{2+}$ selective detection. The results from fluorescence spectra demonstrated that the sensor could selectively recognize $Cu^{2+}$ over other metal cations and the detection limit is as low as $0.2{\mu}M$. Moreover, the confocal fluorescence imaging in HepG2 cells illustrated its potential for biological applications.

  • 전자현미분석 기를 이용한 저어콘 및 모나자이트의 화학적 연대측정은 미량의 U, Th 및 Pb의 정량분석을 통해 이루어지는데, 측정에 이용되는 M-line의 특성 X-선은 발생효율이 낮고 피크강도가 작아 측정하한과 오차범위가 고려된 분석조건이 설정 되어야한다. 총 분석시간을 줄이고, 측정조건의 변위에 따른 오차를 감소시키고자 PET결정을 갖춘 3개의 분광기를 이용하여 U, Th 및 Pb를 동시에 측정하였고, 파고분석기를 이용하여 피크/배경 비율을 증가시켜 측정하한을 낮추었다 최적 분석조건하에서 U, Th 및 Pb에 대한 이론적 값인 측정하한을 30 ppm (99%유의수준)까지 낮출 수 있었고. 저어콘의 단일측정 시 800 ppd의 Pb농도에서 $\pm$10% ($2{\sigma}$), 2330 ppm의 U에서 $\pm$5% ($2{\sigma}$) 그리고 측정된 연대에서 $\pm$10% ($2{\sigma}$)이내의 상대오차범위에서 분석결과를 얻었다. 저어콘 및 모나자이트의 연대측정을 수행하는데 있어, 3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 이하의 공간분해능, 100 ppm ($3{\sigma}$) 이하의 측정하한과 $\pm$10% ($2{\sigma}$) 이하의 분석오차를 고려한 가속전압은 15~20 keV, 빔 전류는 100~200 nA, 그리고 총 측정시간을 300~l200초 (피크와 배경위치에서 각각 동일한 시간으로 측정)로 설정하여 보다 정밀하고 정확한 분석자료를 얻을 수 있었다. 높은 전류에 따른 시료의 손상을 줄이기 위해선 전자빔 직경을 3~5 $\mu\textrm{m}$로 증가시키거나 보다 짧은 시간동안의 측정을 반복하여 그 평균값을 이용하는 것이 필요하다. 빔 전류를 증가시키거나 분석시간을 늘려 측정하한을 낮추고 정밀도를 향상시킴으로서 보다 젊은 시기의 암석이나 상대적으로 U, Th 및 Pb의 함량이 적은 광물의 연대측정에 이용할 수 있다.

  • The amperometric responses of thiourea were studied in 0.1 M NaOH by flow injection analysis. D. C. amperometric and pulsed amperometric detection methods were applied for the determination of thiourea at novel metal electrodes such as Pt and Au. Triple-step potential waveforms were adopted in the pulsed amperometric detection. With an optimized pulsed waveform, the current for the oxidation of thiourea was examined with the variation of flow rate of carrier solution and with the change in the amount of sample injected. Gold working electrode turned out to be better in sensitivity and signal to noise ratio than Pt electrode in the pulsed amperometric detection of thiourea. Detection limit is estimated to be 5.33 ${\times}$ 10$^{-5}$ M with this detection method.

  • There have been great efforts to develop a rapid and sensitive detection method to monitor the presence of pathogenic bacteria in food. While a number of methods have been reported for bacterial detection with a detection limit to a single digit, most of them are suitable only for the bacteria in pure culture or buffered solution. On the other hand, foods are composed of highly complicated matrices containing carbohydrate, fat, protein, fibers, and many other components whose composition varies from one food to the other. Furthermore, many components in food interfere with the downstream detection process, which significantly affect the sensitivity and selectivity of the detection. Therefore, isolating and concentrating the target pathogenic bacteria from food matrices are of importance to enhance the detection power of the system. The present review provides an introduction to the representative sample preparation strategies to isolate target pathogenic bacteria from food sample. We further describe the nucleic acid-based detection methods, such as PCR, real-time PCR, NASBA, RCA, LCR, and LAMP. Nucleic acid-based methods are by far the most sensitive and effective for the detection of a low number of target pathogens whose performance is greatly improved by combining with the sample preparation methods.

  • In this study, the ${\beta}$-lactamase (VPA0477) gene was used as a new target for the PCR-based detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Primers specific for the ${\beta}$-lactamase (VPA0477) gene of V. parahaemolyticus, were designed and incorporated into a PCR-based assay. The assay was able to specifically detect all of the 191 V. parahaemolyticus strains tested, but did not result in amplification of 39 other Vibrio spp. and non-Vibrio spp. strains tested. The detection limit of the assay was 10 CFU of V. parahaemolyticus RIMD2210633 from pure culture broth. The ${\beta}$-lactamase (VPA0477) gene-based assay developed in this study was sensitive and specific, and has great potential for the accurate detection and identification of V. parahaemolyticus in seawater or seafood samples.

  • A PCR-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (PCR-ELISA) was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of L. monocytogenes. PCR primers generating a 132-bp amplicon and a capture probe able to hybridize to the PCR amplicon were designed based on the L. monocytogenes-specific hly gene encoding listeriolysin. The detection limit of PCR-ELISA for L. monocytogenes was determined to be as low as 10 cells per PCR reaction, and this level of detection was achieved within 5 h. These results indicate that the PCR-ELISA provides a valuable tool for the rapid and sensitive detection of L. monocytogenes for the ready-to-eat food industry.

  • Salmonella typhi is frequent causes of foodborne illness and its detection is important for monitoring disease progression. In this study, by using general PCR and novel LAMP (Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification) assay, we evaluated the usefulness of LAMP assay for detection of Salmonella typhi. In this LAMP assay, forward inner primer (FIP) and back inner primer (BIP) was specially designed for recognizing target invA gene. Target DNA was amplified and visualized as ladder-like pattern of bands on agarose gel within 60 min under isothermal conditions at $65^{\circ}C$. When the sensitivity and reproducibility of LAMP were compared to general PCR, there was no difference of reproducibility but sensitivity of LAMP assay was more efficient than PCR (the detection limit of LAMP assay was 30 fg, while the PCR assay was 3 pg). These results indicate that the LAMP assay is a potential and valuable means for detection of Salmonella typhi, especially for its rapidity, simplicity and low cost.

  • Accurate and rapid detection of bacterial plant pathogen is the first step toward disease management and prevention of pathogen spread. Bacterial plant pathogens Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. nebraskensis (Cmn), Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii (Pss), and Rathayibacter tritici (Rt) cause Goss's bacterial wilt and blight of maize, Stewart's wilt of maize and spike blight of wheat and barley, respectively. The bacterial diseases are not globally distributed and not present in Korea. This study adopted comparative genomics approach and aimed to develop specific primer pairs to detect these three bacterial pathogens. Genome comparison among target pathogens and their closely related bacterial species generated 15-20 candidate primer pairs per bacterial pathogen. The primer pairs were assessed by a conventional PCR for specificity against 33 species of Clavibacter, Pantoea, Rathayibacter, Pectobacterium, Curtobacterium. The investigation for specificity and sensitivity of the primer pairs allowed final selection of one or two primer pairs per bacterial pathogens. In our assay condition, a detection limit of Pss and Cmn was $2pg/{\mu}l$ of genomic DNA per PCR reaction, while the detection limit for Rt primers was higher. The selected primers could also detect bacterial cells up to $8.8{\times}10^3cfu$ to $7.84{\times}10^4cfu$ per gram of grain seeds artificially infected with corresponding bacterial pathogens. The primer pairs and PCR assay developed in this study provide an accurate and rapid detection method for three bacterial pathogens of grains, which can be used to investigate bacteria contamination in grain seeds and to ultimately prevent pathogen dissemination over countries.
