As an effort of identifying residual organic contaminants in air and water in Korea, nontarget screening using two-dimensional gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry（GC × GC-TOFMS） was conducted at 10 sites using polyurethane foam passive air sampler and at 6 sites using polydimethyl siloxane（PDMS） passive water sampler in three different seasons in 2014. More than 600 chemical peaks were identified satisfying the identification criteria in air and water samples, respectively, providing a list for further investigation. Chemical substances with reported national emission rates in2014（n = 149） were also screened for potential existence in the environment using a level Ⅱ fugacity model. Most of chemical substances classified as not detectable were not identified with detection frequency greater than 20% by nontarget screening, indicating that a simple equilibrium model has a strong potential to be used to exclude chemicals that are not likely to remain in the environment after emissions from targeted monitoring.展开更多

The mutants were selected in E. coli MBM7070 and the mutation frequencies involving mutants with unchanged electrophoretic mobilrty of their plasmid DNA were scored. When compared to the spontaneous mutation frequency. the mutation frequencies were increased by 5.8 and 2.9-fold in cells pretreated with 0. 2 and 2μmol/L MNNG, respectively. The supF genes of these mutants were sequenced. and it was found that the types of base substitution and the sites of frameshifts differed from findings in studies of spontaneous and targeted mutagenesis. The results suggest that nontargeted mutagenesis occurs in mammalian cells and may have a sequence specificity.展开更多

When the expression of fragment 9 was blocked through transcripting antisense RNA, MNNGinduced nontargeted mutation frequency enhanced significantly compared with control ( P 【 0.05). The result showed that the relevant gene of fragment 9 might participate in maintaining cellular genetic stability and be involved in inhibition of nontargeted mutagenesis.展开更多
