Bleaching effect of ozone on unsaturated coloring material was compared quantitatively with the change of composition of reactants through the ozone oxidation of ${\beta}$-carotene. Beeswax colorized by carotenoids was reacted with ozone in water, 0.5 % and 1.0 % sodium hydroxide solution, and 20 % and 95 % acetic acid solution and bleaching effect of each reaction condition was compared with each other. And then the additive effect of hydrogen peroxide was investigated. Decrease of unsaturated double bond of ${\beta}$-carotene was proportioned quantitatively to the bleaching effect of ozone on ${\beta}$-carotene and was in accordance with the bleaching effect on beeswax. The bleaching effect of ozone on coloring material in 1.0 % sodium hydroxide solution was better than any other condition and the absorbance of beeswax at 390 nm was improved to 0.045 with the addition of hydrogen peroxide(2 % of wax). For the bleaching of beeswax, it was concluded that the ozone oxidation was more effective than physical adsorption.

Water extract from spent mushroom substrates (SMS) of Pleurotus eryngii was utilized in decolorization of eight synthetic dyes and wastewater from a textile factory. High laccase activity was detected in the extract of P. eryngii (SMSE). The SMSE showed that decolorization rate was 34~93% after 24 h incubation without any mediator on eight dyes including Rit-blue and Rit-red used in fiber dyeing. Dye decolorization rate more than 90% was observed on bromophenol blue and remazol brilliant blue R (RBBR). Dye in textile wastewater was decolorized at room temperature after three days by addition of P. eryngii SMSE. The results suggest that biological decolorization of dyes using the P. eryngii SMSE can be used as environmental friendly materials.

We studied on the decoloring effect of viscose rayon by vapor type ozone processing using ozone's strong oxidation. When ozone is generated, it becomes high concentration in vapor state, but in the insolving process with water, there are a lot of lose of ozone. As a result, a study using ozone in vapor-high concentration state is needed. So, in this paper, vapor type ozone processing is used unlike previous ozone treatment method-an aqueous solution method-to get a good effect from shortening the processing time. When vapor type ozone processing was directly treated to fabrics, high concentration ozone was generated then in a short time oxidized a dye existed in fabrics and finally decolored it. As vapor type ozone did not directly response to an organic dye, viscose rayon's decolorization was to be studied by changing pick up ratio(60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20%) using water as a medium. When pick up ratio of water was 40%, fabric's whiteness was improved but tensile strength and elongation were reduced. So 60 minutes was assumed as the most adjust time to minimize the reduction of fabric's tensile strength and elongation moreover of maximize the improvement of whiteness.

In this study, the adsorption decolorization process of sea buckthorn oil was carried out to verify the possibility of the sea buckthorn oil as a natural UV absorber. The optimization was carried out by using the central composite design model-response surface methodology (CCD-RSM). The response values of CCD-RSM were selected as the decolorization effect through the process, acid value after decolorization, and UV absorbance of the decolored oil at 290nm. The amount of adsorbent, temperature and time were selected as the process variables for the experiments. According to the results of CCD-RSM, the results of optimization were all consistent. The optimal conditions, which satisfy CCD-RSM statically and mathematically, were 4.32 wt.%, 134.90 ℃, and 19.8 min for the amount of adsorbent, temperature and time, respectively. The estimated response values expected under these optimal conditions values were 94.78%, 2.08 mg/g KOH, and 2.91 for the decolorization effect, acid value and UV absorbance at 290 nm, respectively. Also the average error from actual experiment for verifying the conclusions was smaller than 2%. Therefore, it was confirmed that the application of CCD-RSM to the adsorption decolorization process of sea buckthorn oil showed a very high level of acceptable results and that the sea buckthorn oil has high possibility to be used as a natural UV absorber.

Stained and discolored hair will be damaged by the shampooing, daily UV disposal, and the use of hair dryer. Thus many studies about the effect of various natural substances on the re-secure the skin and scalp are recently reported. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of green tea (Camelloia sinensis) seed oil on colored (dyed) and decolored (bleached) hair. The beneficial effects of green tea seed oil are already well known, but little research has been done about the hair treatment and fade-resistant effect. Dyed and bleached hair was pretreated with green tea seed oil to determine the tensile strength and elongation of the hair, to analyze the hair surface using SEM, and to compare the color fade using spectrocolormeter. The results showed that the tensile strength increased with green tea seed oil pretreatment samples for virgin, dyed, and bleached hairs. Elongation showed the reverse results showing the presence of hair treatment effect. The results of the surface pre-treatment in all groups analyzed by SEM, the hair cuticle became sharper, so coating effect were identified with all samples. The value of the $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$ decreased with washed hairs damaged by UV irradiation and the values were decreased also in dyed and bleached hair. In summary, green tea seed oil prevent reinjury to the heat and UV rays for colored and decolored hairs. Cosmetic practice effects of the oil were identified in the field to be appropriate to the customer's skin and scalp that natural cosmetic oils would like to offer.

The objectives of this study were to reduce the characteristic dark color of Korean wheat flour noodles. Several additives were tested to reduce dark color of wheat flour dough and 2% ascorbic acid and 0.05% cysteine were selected as additives to Korean wheat flour noodle. Comparative study was performed between commercial imported wheat flour noodle and Korean wheat noodle with two additives to investigate the color, mechanical and sensory properties of noodles. Addition of 2% ascorbic acid increased the brightness of raw and dried Korean wheat flour noodles and 0.05% cysteine was the most effective in improving the brightness for cooked wheat flour noodles. Mechanical properties of cooked Korean wheat flour noodles with 2% ascorbic acid and 0.05% cysteine were similar to that of the imported wheat flour noodles. However, sensory evaluation test showed Korean wheat flour noodles with 2% ascorbic acid had the darkest yellowish-red color, the strongest aftertaste and the lowest overall quality. Therefore, the addition of cysteine was the most effective in mechanical and sensory attributes as well as discoloration of cooked wheat flour noodles.

White rot fungi produce lignin-degrading enzymes such as laccase, manganese peroxidase and lignin peroxidase. These extracellular oxidases efficiently degrade recalcitrant synthetic dyestuffs with diverse chemical structures. Here, we examined the activities of lignin-degrading enzymes in Trametes versicolor using triphenyl methane dyes, crystal violet (CV) and malachite green (MG). Both dyes were decolorized by T. versicolor in solid and liquid culture conditions. T. versicolor decolorized MG more quickly than CV in both conditions. Among three ligninolytic enzymes, laccase was most abundantly found in the decolorization processes of CV and MG. However, higher activity of laccase was needed to degrade CV than MG. The much less activity of MnP was also detected. But the increase of MnP activity was well corresponded to the decolorization efficiency of CV, suggesting the involvement of MnP in CV degrading process. However, its role in the degradation process of MG is supposed to be subsidiary to laccase.

We studied on the decoloring efficiency of a dying and finishing industrial wastewater containing reactive dyes in the ozone treatment system. The wastewater containing reactive dyes improved the decolorization by the ozone oxidation. In order to determine the optical conditions for ozonation, various operation factors such as initial wastewater concentrations, pH, temperature, and ozone dose were evaluated. Ozone utilization rate was improved in general with the increase of initial concentration of wastewater. And the decolorization speed or reactive dyes was more decreased in deep color of blue series than in light color such as yellow series. The colorization of wastewater containing reactive dyes was changed step through midle color depending upon increasing of ozone treated time. The efficiency of decolorization for wastewater was improved with the pH increased and the temperature of ozone treatment system decreased.

여러가지 난분해성 물질에 대한 생분해능을 지닌 백색부후균에 의한 매립지 침출수의 탈색을 조사하였다. 국내에서 분리한 Coriolus versicolor KR-11W와 Irpex lacteus KR-39W가 이제까지 주로 연구되어 온 Phanerochaete chrysosporium보다 높은 탈색능을 나타내었는데 I. lacteus KR-39W는 산소공급시 10%의 침출수가 함유된 YMG 배지의 진탕배양에서 85%의 색도제거율을 나타내었으며 최소배지에서도 80%의 탈색율을 보였다. P. chrysosporium에 의한 리그닌 분해능 및 분해효소 생성 보고들과 달리 진탕배양이 정치배양보다 탈색능이 높았으며 산소공급은 색도제거에 증가효과가 있었다. 균체 접종량(10-30%)과 온도(25,37.deg. C)는 탈색에 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나 탄소원과 질소원의 농도는 상당한 영향을 나타내었다. 리그닌 분해효소군의 여러 가지 inducer와 cofactor를 C. versicolor KR-11W 배양에 첨가한 결과 많은 경우 균접종 대조군보다 2배 이상의 탈색율과 lignin peroxidase 활성의 증가를 보였으며 FeS $O_{5}$ 첨가시에는 최대 2.9배의 증가를 나타내었다. 탈색에 관여하는 효소군은 접종물에 이미 어느 정도 존재할 수 있으며 배지 및 배양조건에 따라 그 생성이 변화할 수 있으므로 이런 조건들을 잘 맞출 경우 보다 높은 탈색능이 기대된다.
