Lichens are a symbiosis between fungi, algae and cyanobacteria. Our group recently studied the antioxidant properties of some bacterial species isolated from Arctic lichens and we confirmed that they possess high antioxidant activities. In this paper, we investigated the antioxidant capacity of 5 microorganisms newly isolated from 4 Arctic lichen species, Cladonia sp., Sterocaulon sp., Umbilicaria sp. and Cetraria sp., using various solvent extractions. We carried out 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) free radical scavenging activity test and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay. Also total phenolic and flavonoid content assays were performed. Among the bacterial culture extracts of the tested lichen-microorganisms, ethyl acetate extracts of Burkholderia sordidicola S5-B(T) had not only a high antioxidant activity (72.9%) when compared with the ascorbic acid used as the control (51.3%) in the DPPH assay, but also a high amount of phenolic content as well as flavonoid content. As a result, these lichen-microorganisms may be potentially useful sources of natural antioxidants.

This study analyzed the colors used in the logos of infants' and children's clothing brands, comparing them based on brand type and the pursued image. A total of 34 brands with the highest recent sales rates were selected. Among these, 17 were large-sized enterprise brands found in department stores, and the other 17 were in-house production enterprise brands. All colors used in the logos of the selected brands were extracted from the brand logo images. In addition, the study classified the pursued images of the selected brands using emotional adjectives in order to assess variations in different color attributes of the logos according to the brand type and pursued image. The study found that in-house production enterprise brands used lighter and more varied colors compared to department store brands. For both brand types, reddish-to-yellowish hues were most commonly used. Brands projecting a 'cute' and 'gorgeous' image exhibited a greater array of colors in their logos, while brands with a 'neat', 'modern', and 'luxurious' image used less saturated colors. In terms of logo type, symbol logos used the most colors with a moderate level of lightness, while typographic logos used the fewest colors with a low level of lightness.

The objective of this study was to investigate sensibility images of Korean traditional motifs cognized by college students in U.S.A. The subjects consisted of 217 male and 351 female undergraduate students. The experimental materials used in this study were 48 stimuli and questionnaires, composed of 7-point semantic differential scales of 15 bipolar adjectives. Twelve motifs selected from 3 groups of Korean motifs were used as motif stimuli. Twelve repeated patterns were constructed from them to be applied on a CAD-simulated dress. The data were analyzed by factor analysis, ANOVA, Duncan's multiple range test. The major finding were as follows: 1. Four dimensions were emerged accounting for the dimensional structure of the images of Korean traditional motifs. These dimensions were ‘quality’, ‘simplicity’, ‘cheerfulnees’, and ‘modernity’. Among them, ‘quality’and ‘simplicity’were the major dimensions. 2. Category, interpretation type, composition type, and application object had significant effects on the images of above-mentioned dimensions. The interpretation type had a significant effect on ‘quality’image, the composition type on ‘cheerful’image, and the application object on ‘modernity’image.

This study examines the types of cotton, silk, and woollen products imported from Japan during the port-opening period and explores the characteristics of import trade related to these textile products. Data were obtained from the Japanese trade statistics published by the Japanese government between the late 19^th and the early 20^th centuries. Several key findings were made from these data. First, at least 24 types of cotton fabrics, 13 silk fabrics, and 16 woollen fabrics imported from Japan were identified. Several types of weaves that can be found in the present day were also identified. Second, the total import of textiles during the port-opening period made up 33.7% of the total imports from Japan, indicating that textiles were an important aspect of import trade with Japan. The value of textile imports from Japan tended to increase overall during this time. Cotton fabrics and silk fabrics showed a tendency to increase continuously, while woollen fabrics showed a trend of gradual increase over repeating periods of increase and decrease. It is apparent from examining the ratio of Japanese and foreign products that cotton fabrics, silk fabrics, and woollen fabrics show different characteristics.

This study explores the types of clothing imported from Japan during the port-opening era and investigates the characteristics of import trade related to these clothing products. This is a literature study based on trade statistics data and books on Western clothing published in Japan during the Meiji period. Research findings are as follows: clothing products imported from Japan were divided into 6 types: 1) clothing, 2) undergarments, 3) shirts, 4) waterproof coats, 5) European-style clothing, and 6) nightgowns. "Clothing" is a unified name for any kind of garment, appearing in import records only from 1877 to 1884. Undergarments and shirts were imported from 1884. Waterproof coats were imported only in 1886 and 1898. European-style clothing and nightgowns were imported from 1902. In the total import of clothes, the proportion of clothing was the highest (48.0%), followed by undergarments (41.3%) and shirts (10.6%), while the ratio of nightgowns and raincoats was almost 0%. During the port-opening period, the change in the import value of clothes did not show a continuous increase, but rather showed a large stepwise increase over the course of several years.

개망초로부터 색소를 추출, 분말화하여 FT-IR 분석을 행하고, 모섬유에 대한 염색조건과 매염이 염착량(K/S값) 및 색상에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 또한 염색한 시료의 견뢰도를 측정하여 실용성을 확인하였다. 개망초 색소는 모섬유에 높은 친화력을 보였으며, Langmuir형의 등온흡착곡선을 보여 염착이 주로 이온결합에 의해 이루어지는 것으로 나타났다. 염착략이 pH 3.0에서 최대가 되었으나 강한 산성조건은 강도 저하를 비롯한 섬유에 손상을 주기 때문에 pH를 조절하지 않고 염색하였다. 피염물의 색상은 모두 Y 계열을 나타내었다. 철매염 처리한 경우를 제외하고 매염처리가 염착량 증진에 미치는 영향은 그다지 크지 않았으며, 매염제 종류를 달리하여 염색한 모섬유의 색상은 크롬과 주석으로 매염한 경우 YR 계열을 나타내고 그 밖의 매염제에 의해서는 Y 계열의 색상을 나타내어 큰 변화는 없었다. 매염처리하지 않은 시료의 견뢰도는 매우 양호하였으며 매염처리가 견뢰도 증진에 미치는 영향은 크지 않았다.

1960년대와 70년대 초기 미국은 인도의 음악, 철학, 종교, 복식 등, 다양한 문화 양식에 관하여 강한 관심을 나타냈고 이는 청년층의 반문화적 행동유형에 의해 시작되어 전반적인 사회계층으로 확산된 문화현상의 한 예로 설명되었다. 이에 본 논문은 Gentlemen's Quarterly 와 Sears and Roebuck Co. Catalgue를 이용하여 수집된 자료를 내용분석법으로 처리하여 미국 남성복에 나타난 인도복식의 영향과 사회계층별 차이점에 관한 실증적인 연구를 시도하였다 연구결과에 따르면 이 시기의 미국 남성복식에 보여진 인도의 영향은 주로 네루 스타일의 복식(Nehru jacket/suit Nehru collar Nehru hat)과 Indian sandal과 jewelry tie-dye와 madras로 의복 직물 악세서리등 다양하게 나타났다 그러나 인도복식으로부터 받은 영향의 내용과 정도는 사회계층에 따라 그 차이가 뚜렷하여 중류층에서는 제한된 종류의 스타일의 단기간 동안 채택되었으나 상류층에서는 다양한 스타일이 비교적 오랜 기간동안 지속되었던 것으로 밝혀졌다 이러한 결과는 중류층의 남성복식이 새롭고 비관습적인 스타일의 채택에 대하여 보수적인 양상으로 띠는 것으로 해석된다. 더불어 인도복식의 영향이 1968년을 절정으로 나타남으로서 이시기의 사회변화가 복식에도 그대로 반영되고 있음으로 보여주고 있다
