초록

본 연구에서는 fluorescence derivatization 기법과 HPLC를 이용하여 수중에 nanograms per liter로 존재하는 극미량 N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA)를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 다양한 조건 하에서의 fluorescence intensity를 측정함으로써 derivatization 기법을 최적화하였는데, fluorescence detector의 excitation/emission wavelength는 340 nm(excitation)과 530 nm(emission)에서, denitrosation 후 용액의 pH는 9-12의 범위에서, 그리고 dansyl chloride의 농도는 330-500 mg/L 범위에서, 최대 fluorescence intensity를 보여주였다. 용매추출을 통한 수질 시료의 분석에서, 표준농도와 검출농도의 차이는, 저농도(10-200 ng/L) 범위에서 12-162%, 고농도(100-1000 ng/L) 범위에서 6-23%를 보여, 저농도 범위에서 더 많은 차이가 나는 것으로 나타났으나, 두 농도 범위 모두 표준농도와 검출농도의 평균 대비율이 1에 매우 근접해 있어, 수십에서 수백 nanograms NDMA per liter의 분석이 가능함을 보여주었다. 하수처리장 처리수에 주입한 NDMA의 분석에서도 다른 물질에 의한 간섭없이 정확한 농도 검출이 가능했는데, 이는 목적물질을 선별적으로 분석해내는 derivatization 과정에 의한 것으로 나타났다. HPLC와 fluorescence derivatization 기법을 이용한 NDMA의 분석은 상수 및 하수를 사용하는 다양한 실험 연구에서 NDMA를 분석하는 방법으로 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) and fluorescence derivatization were applied for a trace-level N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) analysis of water samples. Fluorescence intensity was optimized with the excitation wavelength of 340 nm and the emission wavelength of 530 nm. pH adjustment after denitrosation was necessary to get a maximum intensity at pH between 9 and 12. Maximum intensity was found with a dansyl chloride concentration of 330 to 500 mg/L. Percentile error in the water sample analyses through solid phase extraction was 12-162% and 6-23% for the lower concentration level(10-200 ng/L NDMA) and the higher level(100-1000 ng/L NDMA), respectively, showing more discrepancy in lower level. However, the average ratios of estimated NDMA to the standard NDMA were close to 1 for both concentration ranges, presenting this HPLC method could detect from tens to hundreds nanograms NDMA per liter. Accurate determination of NDMA, which was injected to a wastewater effluent, revealed the selectivity of fluorescence derivatization for the target compound(NDMA) in the presence of complex interfering compounds. The HPLC with fluorescence derivatization may be applicable for determining NDMA of water and wastewater samples fur various research purposes.
