  • 정제된 Aldrich 휴믹산(PAHA)과 한외 여과된 다양한 크기의 PAHA 성분들(PAHA UF fractions)을 이용하여 여러 고리 방향족 탄화수소(PAH)와의 결합 메커니즘을 조사하였다. 유기탄소 결합계수($K_oc$)는 전통적인 Stern-Volmer 형광 소광법과 변형 형광 소광법 두 가지를 이용하여 구하였다. 구해진 Pyrene $K_oc$ 값은 PAHA 농도와 자유 용존 pyrene 농도에 의존하였다. 이러한 비선형 흡착결합 양상은 두 물질간의 흡착성 고유상호작용이 존재한다는 것을 암시하였다. 상대적으로 분자크기가 작은 naphthalene은 중간 크기의 PAHA UF fractions과의 결합에서 높은 $KK_oc$ 값을 보여준 반면 분자 크기의 큰 PAH,즉 pyrene의 경우에는 PAHA UF fractions 크기가 크면 클수록 더 결합이 잘 되었다. 이러한 두 PAH 물질간의 불일치한 크기별 결합양상은 현재까지 제시된 고유 결합 메커니즘들 중의 하나 인 크기별 배제(size exclusion) 효과로 잘 설명되었다. 다양한 pH 조건하에서의 PAH $K_oc$ 실험에서는 일반적으로 pH가 낮아질수록 휴믹산의 산성작용기가 중화되고 그에 따라 휴믹산내의 소수성 영역이 커짐으로 인해 pyrene과 휴믹산과의 결합정도는 커졌다. 그러나 큰 사이즈의 PAHA UF fraction(>100K Da)을 사용한 실험에서는 낮은 pH가 아닌 특정 pH 범위에서 또 하나의 높은 pyrene $KK_oc$ 값을 보여줌으로서 크기별 배제 효과가 존재함을 뚜렷이 보여주었다. 이러한 크기별 배제 효과는 휴믹산의 홀(hole)구조가 PAH 크기에 적합하게 구성되어 있는 조건(휴믹성분 크기 혹은 pH)에서만 작용하는 것으로 보인다.

  • Eighty-one workers including 38 employees directly incinerating industry wastes were recruited from a company located in South Korea. To evaluate the association between urinary 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide (1-OHPG) levels, as internal dose of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) exposure, and glycophorin A (GPA) mutation frequency, as an early biologic effect indicator. Urinary 1-OHPG levels were measured by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy after immunoaffinity purification using monoclonal antibody 8E11. Erythrocyte GPA variant frequency (NN or NO) was assessed in MN heterozygotes with a flow cytometic assay. The GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes were assessed by a multiplex PCR method. The GPA NN phenotype frequency was higher in occupationally exposed group (n=14, mean$\pm$S.D. 6.6$\pm$12.0 in 10/SUP 6/ erythrocyte cells) than in non-exposed group (n=22, 2.1$\pm$3.5). Similarly, the GPA(NO or NN) phenotype frequency was higher in exposed group (n=14, 9.7$\pm$17.3) than non-exposed group (n=22, 4.2$\pm$6.3). The above differences failed to reach statistical significance, but a significant increase was seen in GPA variant frequency levels with increase in urinary 1-OHPG levels (Spearman's correlation: p=0.06 (NO), p=0.07 (NO or NN)). When this association was evaluated by GSTM1 genotype status, the association between GPA mutation and urinary 1-OHPG levels was stronger in individuals with GSTM1 present genotype (Spearmans correlation; r=0.50, p=0.02). These results suggest that the association between urinary 1-OHPG and GPA mutation is be modulated by the GSTM1 genotype.

  • This study evaluated the concentrations of urinary metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in industrial waste incineration workers. The effect of genetic polymorphisms of xenobiotic metabolism enzymes on urinary concentration of PAH metabolites was assessed. And, aromatic DNA adduct levels were also determined in total white blood cells. Fifty employees were recruited from a company handling industrial wastes located in Ansan, Korea: non-exposed group (n=21), exposed group (n=29). Sixteen ambient PAHs were determined by GC/MSD (NIOSH method) from personal breathing zone samples of nine subjects near incinerators. Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide (1-OHPG), a major pyrene metabolite, was assayed by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy after immunoaffinity purification using monoclonal antibody 8E11 (SFS/IAC). Multiplex PCR was used for genotyping for GSTMI/TI and PCR-RFLP for genotyping of CYP1A1 (MspI and Ile/Val). PAH-DNA adducts in peripheral blood WBC were measured by the nuclease P1-enhanced postlabeling assay. Smoking habit, demographic and occupational information were collected by self-administered questionnaire. The range of total ambient PAH levels were 0.00-7.00 mg/㎥ (mean 3.31). Urinary 1-OHPG levels were significantly higher in workers handling industrial wastes than in those with presumed lower exposure to PAHs (p=0.006, by Kruskal-Wallis test). There was a statistically significant dose-response increase in 1-OHPG levels with the number of cigarettes consumed per day (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.686, p<0.001). Urinary 1-OHPG levels in occupationally exposed smoking workers were highest compared with non-occupationally exposed smokers (p=0.053, by Kruskal-Wallis test). Smoking and GSTMI genotype were significant predictors for log-transformed 1-OHPG by multiple regression analysis (overall model R²=0.565, p<0.001), whereas smoking was the only significant predictor for log-transformed aromatic DNA adducts (overall model R²=0.249, p=0.201). Aromatic DNA adducts was also a significantly correlation between log transferred urinary 1-OHPG levels (pearson's correlation coefficient=0.307, p=0.04). However, the partial correlation coefficient adjusting for Age, Sex, and cigarette consumption was not significant (r=0.154, p=0.169). The significant association exists only in individuals with the GSTMI null genotype (pearsons correlation coefficient=0.516, p=0.010; partial correlation coefficient adjusting for age, sex, and cigarette consumption, r=0.363, p=0.038). Our results suggest that the significant increase in urinary 1-OHPG in the exposed workers is due to higher prevalence of smokers among them, and that the association between urinary PAH metabolites and aromatic DNA adducts in workers of industrial waste handling may be modulated by GSTMI genotype. There results remain to be confirmed in future larger studies.

  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are frequently detected in food, water, soil, and sediment and are widespread environmental pollutants formed by the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, woods and other organic matter. PAHs are considered to be probable human carcinogens. The mechanism of action of PAHs has been studied extensively, however it is not clear how PAHs turn on CYP1A1 in human breast cancer. Our laboratory have been studied the effect of PAHs in the human breast cancer cell MCF7. In this study, we examined the ZR-75-1 human breast cancer cells as a new system to evaluate bioactivity of PAHs. ZR-75-1 human breast cancer cell line responses to estrogen and progesteron. We have been able to estbilish long term culture system of this cells then used for the study to observe the effect of PAHs. We demonstrate that PAHs induced the CYP1A1 promoter and 7-ethoxyresolufin O-deethylase (EROD) activity in a concentration-dependant manner. RT-PCR analysis indicated that PAHs significantly up-regulate the level of CYP1A1 mRNA. Some of PAHs showed stronger stimulatory effect on CYP1 gene expression than TCDD. Apparently, ZR-75-1 cells have Aryl hydrocarbon receptors, therefore it would be good experimental tool to study the cross-talk between PAHs and steroid actions.

  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs)들에 오염된 토양시료를 채취한 후, phenanthrene을 유일한 탄소원과 에너지원으로 배양하여 PAHs를 분해하는 균주 K-19를 분리하였다. 이 균주는 지방산 조성 실험에서 Sphingomonas 속 균주의 특징인 2-hydroxy fatty acid들과 18:1w7를 포함하고 있었으며, 16S rDNA 염기서열을 이용한 계통유전학적 분석결과 Ribosomal Database에서 Sphingomonas CF06과 가장 가까운 유연관계를 보였다. K-19는 phenanthrene 존재 하에서 빠른 성장률과 높은 phenanthrene 분해율로 10일만에 500 ppm의 phenanthrene을 92% 분해하였으며, phenanthrene 이외에 indole, naphthalene 등도 분해하였다. 또한 전 배양 방법을 통하여 phenanthrene 분해능이 더욱 증진됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 우리나라의 유류 오염토양에 Sphingomonas 속의 미생물이 존재하며 이 미생물은 여러 종류의 다중 고리 방향족 화합물을 분해할 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있음을 보여준다.

  • 커피 품종별 3종의 원두에 대한 로스팅 온도는 inlet air 기준으로 $150^{\circ}C$에서 $250^{\circ}C$ 사이로 로스팅 시간은 5, 10, 20분으로 각 조건별 PAHs 함량의 변화를 측정한 결과이다. Arabica 종인 Colombia 원두와 Brazil 원두 공시료의 총 PAHs 함량은 각각 1.78 ${\mu}g$/kg와 1.65 ${\mu}g$/kg로 비슷하였으며, Robusta 종인 India 원두는 0.38 ${\mu}g$/kg로 Arabica 종보다 적은 량이 검출되었다. 총 PAHs 함량도 Robusta 종에서 0.18-2.54 ${\mu}g$/kg이 검출되었으며, Arabica 종인 Colombia 원두와 Brazil 원두는 각각 1.26-215.70 ${\mu}g$/kg, 1.85-178.14 ${\mu}g$/kg로 Arabica 종에서 많이 검출되었으며, 품종별 B[${\alpha}$]P의 함량도 Colombia 원두에서 0.11-0.47 ${\mu}g$/kg, Brazil 원두에서 0.18-0.60 ${\mu}g$/kg, India 원두에서 0.03-0.11 ${\mu}g$/kg으로 Arabica 종에서 많이 검출되었다. 로스팅 조건별 실험 결과 일정한 변화를 보이진 않았지만, 저온 장시간 로스팅 한 시료보다 고온 단시간 로스팅 한 시료에서 총 PAHs가 많이 검출되었음을 확인하였으며, 시료별 실험결과 B[${\beta}$]F 함량은 Arabica 종인 Colombia 원두와 Brazil 원두를 250$^{\circ}C$에서 10, 20분 로스팅 하였을 때 많이 검출되었음을 확인하였다. 이에 따라 시중에 유통되고 있는 로스팅 커피의 모니터링을 통하여 섭취하고 있는 커피의 PAHs의 노출 정도를 파악하고, 커피 생산 공정에서 PAHs의 생성량을 저감화할 수 있는 로스팅 방식(직접가열방식, 열풍가열방식) 및 조건(온도, 시간) 확립에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

  • 대향류 확산 화염의 매연 생성 특성에 대한 실험적 연구가 수행되었으며, 그 결과 에틸렌 ($C_2H_4$)-프로판($C_3H_8$) 혼합 연료의 경우 매연 생성 상승 효과 (synergistic effect)가 관측되었다. 프로판과 에틸렌의 PAH 생성 양상이 상이하게 나타났으며, 소량의 프로판을 에틸렌 확산 화염에 첨가할 경우 순수 연료에 비하여 매연 및 PAH (다중 고리 방향족 탄화수소; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon) 생성이 증대되었다. 단조적으로 변화하는 아세틸렌($C_2H_2$) 농도와 단열 화염 온도를 고려할 때, 이러한 결과는 HACA (H-abstraction-$C_2H_2$-addition) 반응만으로는 확산 화염에서의 매연 발생 및 성장을 설명할 수 없음을 의미한다. 수치해석과 실험 결과의 비교로부터 초기 PAH의 생성 과정을 규명하였으며 이 과정에서 C3 화학종의 재결합 반웅이 매우 중요함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 이러한 C3 화학종과 C2 화학종의 상호 보완적인 역할에 의하여 에틸렌-프로판 혼합 연료에서 매연 생성이 증대됨을 밝혔다.

  • Vertical variations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations in $PM_{10}$ were investigated in order to assess the factors controlling their behavior in the urban atmosphere of Bangkok City, Thailand. Air samples were collected every three hours for three days at three different levels at Bai-Yok Suit Hotel (site-1 and site-2) and Bai-Yok Sky Hotel (site-3) in February $18^{th}-21^{st}$, 2008. The B[a]P concentration showed a value 0.54 fold, lower than the United Kingdom Expert Panel on Air Quality Standard (UK-EPAQS; i.e. 250 pg $m^{-3}$) at the top level. In contrast, the B[a]P concentrations exhibited, at the ground and middle level, values 1.50 and 1.43 times higher than the UK-EPAQS standard respectively. PAHs displayed a diurnal variation with maximums at night time because of the traffic rush hour coupled with lower nocturnal mixing layer, and the decreased wind speed, which consequently stabilized nocturnal boundary layer and thus enhanced the PAH contents around midnight. By applying Nielsen's technique, the estimated traffic contributions at Site-3 were higher than those of Site-1: about 10% and 22% for Method 1 and Method 2 respectively. These results reflect the more complicated emission sources of PAHs at ground level in comparison with those of higher altitudes. The average values of incremental individual lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) for all sampling sites fell within the range of $10^{-7}-10^{-6}$, being close to the acceptable risk level ($10^{-6}$) but much lower than the priority risk level ($10^{-4}$).

  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) features have emerged as one of the most important infrared (IR) features since these PAH features dominate mid-IR spectra of galaxies and are ubiquitous within galactic and extragalactic objects. These PAH features have the potentials to become reliable star formation rate (SFR) proxies and diagnostics of physical conditions of interstellar medium, such as ionization states of dust grains and grain sizes. While constructing an unbiased library of 44 sample galaxies selected from 5MUSES sample, AKARI mJY Unbiased Survey of Extragalactic Sources in 5MUSES (AMUSES) intends to measure and to calibrate the PAH 3.3 mm emission feature which has not been studied extensively due to its weak strength and dearth of capable instruments. Out of 20 target galaxies, we detected the 3.3mm feature from eight galaxies and measured their line strengths, line widths and line ratios with other PAH emission features. Sample galaxies whose spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are classified as starburst-type have clearly stronger 3.3mm emission features than ones with AGN-type SEDs. We also found that there is a correlation between the PAH 3.3mm luminosity and total IR luminosity within our sample galaxies, albeit a large scatter. We further discuss implications of our results.
