비타민 C(L-ascorbic acid)는 강한 항산화성, 피부에 대한 높은 안전성으로 인해 피부의 노화방지, 미백, 주름 개선 등의 기능성 화장품 원료로써 많은 관심이 있는 물질이지만, 화학적으로 매우 불안정하여 쉽게 산화, 분해되므로 화장품 제형으로 포함시키는데 곤란한 문제가 있다. 본 연구에서는 비타민 C 의 안정성에 대한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 생체 및 피부 친화성이 우수한 무기물을 사용하여 비타민 C 를 캡슐화(encapsulation)한 분말상의 유-무기 복합물질 Vitabrid-C 를 합성하고, 이를 함유하는 피부 미백용 트윈케익 파우더를 개발하였다. 우선 Vitabrid-C 는 수용액상에서 비타민 C 를 수화된 산화아연(ZnO)으로 1 차 캡슐화하여 나노입자를 형성시키고, 그 표면을 실리카(silica)나노 입자로 한번 더 코팅하여 표면의 껍질이 다공특성을 갖는 분말을 제조함으로써 완성하였다. 이렇게 제조된 Vitabrid-C는 순수 비타민 C 에 비해 우수한 안정성을 보였으며, 캡슐 내 비타민 C 가 서서히 방출되는 서방특성을 발휘하였다. 또한 Vitabrid-C는 입자의 크기가 미세하고 균일하여 트윈케익 처방에 용이하게 적용할 수 있었다. Vitabrid-C와 순수 비타민 C의 생화학적 동등성에 대한 평가는 tyrosinase 억제능(L-DOPA oxidase 억제) 및 DPPH항산화 실험을 통하여 비교하였다. 트윈 케익 처방에 적용된 Vitabrid-C 에서 비타민 C 의 피부 투과경향을 Franz diffusion cell 법을 이용하여 확인하였다 또한 Vitabrid-C가 포함된 트윈케익을 건강한 피부를 가진 25 세 이상되는 여성의 전박에 색소 침착을 유도한 후 피부색 개선 효과 평가를 통해 임상적 효능을 평가하였다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the preparation and physicochemical characteristics of n-octenylsuccinylated (OSAn) rice starches with different rice amylose contents. Amylose contents of Jinsumi flour and Milyang 261 flour were 15.42 and 20.31%, respectively. After processing by alkali treatment, amylose contents of Jinsumi rice starch and Milyang 261 rice starch were 34.21% and 39.32%, respectively. After OSAn treatment, the degree of substitution and reaction efficiency of Jinsumi starch were higher than those of Milyang 261. The stability of the modified Jinsumi emulsion was higher than that of the Milyang 261 emulsion. Viscosity of the Jinsumi emulsion was higher than that of the Milyang 261 emulsion. When the emulsions were spray dried, modified Jinsumi rice starch showed excellent coating efficiency compared to that of modified Milyang 261 rice starch. Therefore, Jinsumi was more suitable than Milyang 261 to apply for encapsulation as wall materials.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of microencapsulation on the water absorption, DPPH radical scavenging activity (DRSA), hydroxyl radical scavenging activity (HRSA) and tyrosinase inhibition activity (TIA) in corn silk extracts. The lowest value (0.20) of water absorption index (WAI) and the highest value (95.23%) of water solubility index (WSI) were maltodextrin+cyclodextrin microencapulated corn silk extracts (MD+CD) and cyclodextrin encapulated corn silk extracts (CD), respectively. The 18.60% for DRSA value of control was increased to 89.25% for that of CD. The 16.89% for HRSA value of control was increased to 47.46%, and 7.16% for TIA value of control was increased to 39.35% for that of MD+CD, respectively. The MD+CD would be used for functional food and cosmetics materials as antioxidant and skin whitening agents. All investigated responses between control and treatment were statistically significant (p<0.05).

The ecofriendly yellow ocher is used in the manufacturing of cosmetics, construction, and food packaging. The polyethylene terephthalate (PET) used for manufacturing food containers has a microporous structure that causes aeration. Hydrophilic yellow ocher may be applied to hydrophobic PET by surface modification to overcome this issue. The aim of this study is to fabricate a yellow ocher polystyrene hybrid structure in the form of nanoparticles using an optimizing molar ratio of styrene, divinylbenzene, and potassium peroxodisulfate for use in emulsion polymerization. The polymerization was conducted in a yellow ocher suspension that was prepared by dispersing mechanically ground yellow ocher in DI water. The prepared hybrid structure was measured using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The measurement revealed the spherical morphology and Si component that resulted from the yellow ocher in the polystyrene particles. We expect that this hybrid structure would be used as platform material to minimize aeration in PET.

Alginate, obtained from the seaweeds, is a widely used biomaterial for cell transplantation, since its positive effect on viability of capsulized cells and its easier encapsulation capability of living cells. Demineralized bone powder (DBP), derived from the natural bone tissue, is widely applied for clinical trials for its low rate of reaction and antigenicity. A chondrocyte was seeded into an alginate with DBP of different contents, and a microcapsule was produced. The adhesion and proliferation of cells was observed through the MTT analysis, and the PCR was applied to estimate the content of the glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) and collagen, and confirm the specific genetic pattern of the chondrocytes. Also, the alginate microcapsule where the chondrocyte is seeded was extracted after transplantation under the skin of a nude mouse, and was immunochemically stained. The experimental result confirmed that the alginate microcapsule containing 1% of DBP not only showed the highest proliferation of cell but had a positive effect of chondrocytes by the interaction between the alginates and the growth factor in DBP. It can be expected that the microcapsule with application of the alginates and DBP might be an appropriate scaffold for tissue engineering.

In this work, the basic research for nano-capsulation of L-ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) in nonaqueous system was carried out. 500 nm-sized nano-capsules were prepared in nonaqueous system, and the emulsified capsule had mean size of 410 nm. The stability test on the temperature and the storage periods was performed at 4, 20, and $30^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. After 5 days, L-ascorbic acid was extricated 5.1, 9.3, and 12.5% at each temperature, but only 1~2 % was extricated after the time span. Likewise, the results of the skin susceptibility on women and men, each 10 persons, revealed that the very thin allergy was shown from only a woman after 2 days, but it was not shown from the others.

This article presents an evaluation of the effects of coating conditions on the enteric coating quality of soft gelatin capsules containing Omega-3 fatty acids. Three conditions were controlled: concentration of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (6, 8, and 10 wt% in solution), temperature of the inlet air (32, 35, and $38^{\circ}C$), and the coating solution feed rate (7.5, 11.25, and 15.0 g/min). The transparency of the enteric coated soft gelatin capsules was evaluated by measuring the degree of whiteness of the surface using a spectrophotometer. Results showed that the most important parameter in the enteric coating process was the coating solution feed rate. As the coating solution feed rate decreased and inlet air temperature increased, the degree of whiteness of coating surfaces decreased. We also evaluated the disintegration properties of the enteric coated capsules in accordance with the Korea Health Functional Food Code.

In this paper, a comprehensive design of HBC(Human Body Communication) system for capsule endoscope is presented. First, we propose a method of combining the signals received from multiple patches attached to the body of patient through differential operation and derive the signal SNR mathematically. To synchronize HBC transmission signal sent from capsule, we analyzed coarse timing synchronization method using PN code and fine timing synchronization performance among Manchester, NRZ and RZ modulation method using ZCD(Zero Crossing Detector). In addition, we evaluated the equalization performance of HBC signal frame in Rician and Rayleigh channel environments by applying LMS and RLS algorithm.

In order to improve some problems such as contamination of undesirable mold, mycotoxin production and excessive drying on the surface of traditional meju, we developed a capsule type-meju(CM) coated with steamed black bean and Aspergillus oryzae - rice koji(0.3％, w/w) mixture to surface of traditional meju and fermented at 25$^{\circ}C$ for 14 days under 80％ relative humidity. Contamination of undesirable mold on the surface of CM was not detected within 2 weeks and some genus Penicillium molds on control meju without koji were found naturally after 12 days of fermentation. The moisture content of meju was showed to be in the range of 34.7 - 29.4％ being 32.7％(w/w) of mean value. Titratable acidities in CMs prepared with black bean(BCM) and soybean(SCM) were much higher than that in control meju, and BCM was similar to SCM. Free sugar content in BCM(123.98 mg％) was 10 times and 2.1 times higher than that in control meju(15.02 mg％) and SCM(59.85 mg％), respectively. Amino type nitrogen content in control meju was 147.00 mg％ and its content in BCM(255.50 mg％) was 1.37 times higher than that in SCM(187.25 mg％). Total organic acid content in BCM(95.98 mg％) and SCM(1l9.98 mg％) were much higher than that in control meju(26.44 mg％), and then lactic and malic acid contents were markedly changed according to capsulation of meju. Lightness value(L) of Hunter color index was much higher in BCM than in SCM. Fatty acid composition of CM was not different as compared to control meju. Total free amino acid content in BCM(1039.70 mg％) was 4.4 times and 2.4 times higher than that in control meju(236.45 mg％) and SCM(556.07 mg％), respectively.
