This study was made to investigate the effect of silk fabrics treated with mimosa and tannic acid-weighting effect, surface color according to temprature, treatment time, concentration, pH. The results were as follows ; 1. The wavelength of maximum absorption of mimosa and tannic acid solution appeared at 278.5nm and 275.0nm, respectively. By the irradiation, spectra at wavelength of maximum absorption of mimosa solution disappeared, but those of tannic acid solution decreased after 48hr irradiation. 2. The tannin weighting increased with the increase of concentration, treatment temperature at 8$0^{\circ}C$, acidic condition. In case of tannic acid, it was higher than mimosa. 3. Surface color of silk fabric with mimosa changed from 2.8YR to 5.8YR acc-ording to the increase o( tannin concentration but in case of tannic acid itchanged from 4.2Y to 3.9Y. It was more changed acidic or alkaline conditionthan origine solution.

Eight hydrolyzable tannin compounds, such as gallic acid (1), methyl gallate (2), kurigalin (3), 1,2,3,6-tetra-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-(+)-glucose (4), 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-(+)-glucose (5), 6-m-digalloyl-1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-(+)-glucose (6), isocorilagin (7), macabarterin (8), were isolated from the EtOAc and $H_2O$ soluble fractions of Katsura tree (Cercidiphyllum japonicum) leaves, wood and bark. Then antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activity were evaluated on the each isolated compound. The antioxidative test was DPPH radical scavenging activity and all of the isolated compounds indicated much higher antioxidative values compare to the controls, BHT and ${\alpha}$-tocopherol. In the anti-inflammatory test measuring nitric oxide (NO) inhibition activity, methyl gallate, 1,2,3,6-tetra-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose and 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose inhibited NO production, and especially, methyl gallate showed high inhibition activity. However, the anti-inflammatory activity of the hydrolyzable tannins did not show positive effect. Based on the above results, the hydrolyzable tannins of katsura tree may be used as one of the natural biomass sources that can substitute with the synthetic antioxidant.

Nineteen hydrolysable tannins isolated from the Euphorbia helioscopia (Euphorbiaceae) were tested for the inhibitory effect on mushroom tyrosinase activity in vitro. Inhibitory effect of gallotannin group exhibited more potent than that of phenolcarboxylic acid and ellagitannin groups against the enzyme activity. The inhibitory activity by pentagalloyl glucose on mushroom tyrosinase was more potent ($IC_{50}$/, 4.9 $\mu$M) than that of kojic acid ($IC_{50}$/, 8.7 $\mu$M).

To examine whether DGRF inhibits $cPLA_2$ activity in vitro, we purified a 100 kDa $cPLA_2$enzyme from porcine spleen and performed an inhibition study at two concentrations of 5.0 and 50.0 $\mu$M 1-stearoyl-2-[1-$^{l4C}$ ]arachidonoyl-sn -glycero-3-phosphocholine as a substrate to rule out an apparent inhibition due to "substrate depletion". Here we reported that DGRF inhibited $cPLA_2$activity with $ID_{50}$ of 3.2 $\mu$M and virtually complete inactivation of the enzyme occurred at 60 $\mu$M. Interaction experiment between enzyme protein and inhibitor by ultrafiltration method indicated that 1-desgalloylrugosin-F inactivates $cPLA_2$enzyme by an irreversible mechanism.

Seventy three hydrolysable tannins and related compounds were isolated from seven Euphorbia plants. Among them, 28 compounds including nine gallotannins, eleven ellagitannins and eight related compounds were selected according to the structural similarity. Cytotoxicity of them on the human tumor cell lines including A-549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, XF-498 and HCT-15 were evaluated by the SRB method in vitro. 3,4,6-Tri-O-galloyl-D-glucose was shown to exhibit most potent cytotoxic effect($4.4{\mu}g/ml).

In this study, ten different bio-adsorbents were prepared by immobilization of vegetable tannins such as mimosa(Catechol Tannin) and chestnut(Pyrogallol Tannin) on the collagen matrix which was derived from during leather manufacturing processing. Removal efficiency of Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cr(III) by each bio-adsorbent in synthetic wastewater was evaluated by a laboratory-scale batch reactor at different reaction conditions. When mimosa was used as a vegetable tannin, the penetration efficiency of mimosa into the inner bundle of fiber depended on the dose of the naphthalene condensated penetrant; 3% ${\geq}$ 1.5% > 0%. For all bio-adsorbents, removal of heavy metal ions was not observed below pH 3.0 but was rapidly increased between pH 3.0 and 6.0, showing near complete removal of all heavy metal ions except Zn(II) above pH 6.0. Removal of Cr(III) was quite similar for all bio-adsorbents while removal of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) was higher by bio-adsorbents immobilized with chestnut than that by mimosa. Adsorption of Pb(II) and Cu(II) by S10 bio-adsorbent was little affected by the presence of monovalent and divalent electrolytes as well as variation of 1000 times ionic concentration with $NaNO_3$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dyeing properties and anti-microbial ability of silk and wool fabrics dyed with Terminalia chebula Retzius(TCR) extract using two extraction solvent, hot water and methanol. Dyeing properties of fabrics were studied by investigating the characteristics of colorant, changes in dye uptake under different dyeing conditions, and by investigating color change when mordants were applied. Also, color fastness, and antimicrobial activity of dyed fabrics were estimated. Regardless of extraction solvent type, colorant showed maximum absorption wavelength at 280 nm and 578 nm, which implied that tannin was the major pigment component of TCR. Also, through FT-IR spectrum result, it was confirmed that tannin of TCR methanol extract was hydrolysable tannin. But for the hot water extract, it was only assumed that its tannin was condenced tannin. Fabric dyed with hot water solvent extract showed higher dye uptake than fabric dyed with methanol solvent extract, dye uptake increasing by higher concentration of the dye, longer dyeing time and higher dyeing temperature. And the absorption curve between TCR extract and protein fiber was shaped in the form of Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Fabric dyed without mordant was yellow in color, and when dyed with mordant, fabric showed various colors depending on mordant types except Sn. Color fastness to washing was generally fine and color fastness to light was moderate. But color fastness to rubbing and dry cleaning was outstanding. Lastly, dyed fabrics showed very good antimicrobial activity of 99.9% against Staphylococcus aureus and Kiebsiella pneumoniae.

This study was designed to investigate the possible utilization of Ligustrum japonicum leaves as a source of functional ingredients. Contents of total phenolic compounds and condensed tannin were $0.89{\sim}1.53%$ and $0.10{\sim}0.13%$, respectively. The major flavonoid compounds in the leaves of L. japonicum were luteolin, apigenin and their glycosides. Tyrosol, t-cinnamic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, vanillic acid, shikimic acid and protocatecuic acid were detected in free phenolic acid, while tyrosol, t-cinnamic acid, ferulic acid, esculetin, caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid and hydroxytyrosol were detected in esterified phenolic acid. The insoluble phenolic acid contained tyrosol, t-cinnamic and p-caoumaric acid.
