In this study, the dyeing properties of Phellodendron amurense on cotton and silk fabrics were evaluated to establish a scientific database of dyeing methods using natural dyes with the ultimate aim of facilitating the practical use of these dyes. The optimal thickener and dyeing concentrations depending on the thickener type were identified when dyeing with P. amurense, and the fabric color, color fastness, and antibiosis were examined for various thickeners, fabrics, and mordants. The results were as follows.: The optimal concentrations of thickeners when dyeing on cotton and silk fabrics were CMC 3% (w/w), Mayprogum 7% (w/w), and Indalka 9% (w/w). The optimal concentration of P. amurense was 25% (w/w), irrespective of the type of thickener. To maintain the hue unique to P. amurense, thickening with Mayprogum or Indalka and mordanting with Al was effective for cotton, while thickening with Mayprogum or Indalka and mordanting with Al or thickening with CMC and mordanting with gallnut was effective for silk. The dry-cleaning fastness and abrasion resistance of cotton fabrics dyed with P. amurense were excellent at the 4-5 level. Gallnut was effective for washing fastness and perspiration fastness against color degradation, and FFC was effective for light fastness. The washing fastness, dry-cleaning fastness, abrasion resistance, and perspiration fastness of silk fabrics dyed with P. amurense were excellent at level 4, except for washing and perspiration fastness, and FFC was effective for the improvement of light fastness. Dyeing cotton and silk fabrics with P. amurense thus yielded antibiosis and excellent washing fastness.

The study that has been conducted is the consideration of the durability of dye, antibacterial activity, and deodorizing effects of cotton and silk textiles dyed with a botanical dying material that has been used in various ways over the years as Korean diet and folk remedies, the pomegranate. 1. The results of the K/S value of dying according to the types of mordants of textiles dyed with pomegranate extract the following have been discovered: The increase of K/S value of dying of the silk textiles appear to be higher than that of the cotton textiles. Next, silk textiles that have been treated with FeSO$_4$.7$H_2O$ appear to be at the highest. 2. The results of the color change measurement show a difference of color can be noticed according to the types of mordant. As opposed to those textiles that had been only scured textiles, all of the dyed textiles appeared to turn yellow. 3. Textiles that had been treated with $K_2$Cr$_2$O(sub)7 recorded the highest durability according to the colorfastness to light results. In the case of the cotton textiles colorfastness to washing, all appeared to show exceptional results of 3rd class or higher, excluding the textiles that had been treated FeSO$_4$.7$H_2O$. However silk textiles recorded relatively low classes of below 3rd to 4th class. For the colorfastness to washing of pollution, the results for both the cotton and silk textiles were excellent at class 4-5. The results of colorfastness to perspiration, colorfastness to rubbing, and colorfastness to dry cleaning showed comparatively exceptional results of 3rd to 4th class or higher when it came to dyed textiles. 4. According to the measurements of antibiosis, dyed textiles that had been treated with SnCl$_2$.2$H_2O$ appeared to show an exceptional bacterium decrease of approximately 70%. 5. According to the deodorizing measurements, dyed silk textiles appeared to have a higher deodorizing effect than cotton textiles. As for cotton textiles, those that had been treated with FeSO$_4$.7$H_2O$ and in the case of dyed silk textiles those that had been treated SnCl$_2$.2$H_2O$ recorded the highest deodorizing effect.

The effect of two plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on plant growth and systemic protection against soft rot disease and stem rot disease of canola (Brassica napus), caused by Erwinia carotovora and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum was investigated in a laboratory and a greenhouse. Selected PGPR strains C4 and D8 were treated to canola seeds by soaking. Strains C4 and D8 significantly not only increased plant height and root length about 74% and 40.3% and also reduced disease severity of soft rot disease by 80% by C4 and D8 respectively, compared to the control. Especially strain C4 showed antifungal activity against 6 fungal pathogens, S. sclerotiorum, Rhizoctonia solani, Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxysporum, Phytophthora capsici and Colletotrichum acutatum. In greenhouse experiment, the seed treatment of both of them increased plant height, leaf width and leaf length of canola plant to 19.5% and 24.9%, 11.3% and 15.3%, and 14.1% and 20.7% by C4 and D8, respectively, and reduced disease severity of S. sclerotiorium. These results indicate that these two PGPR strains can decrease disease severity and increased plant growth under greenhouse condition. Therefore, these two bacteria have a potential in controlling Sclerotinia stem rot of canola. These strains have to investigate under field condition to determine their role of antibiosis, induced systemic resistance and plant growth promotion on canola.

Gardenia fructus has been reported to have bioactivities of lowering blood glucose, antitumor, antithrombosis, repression of neogenesis of blood vessels, antioxidant and antibiosis. However, the nitrite scavenging activity and utilization in meat products have not been studied. The substitution effect for nitrite and antibiosis of Gardenia fructus extract (GFE) were investigated by measuring the residual nitrite contents and storage properties of pork patties prepared with nitrite (50, 100, and 150 ppm) and GFE (0, 0.25, 0.5%). The CIE $L^*$ and CIE $a^*$ of pork patties decreased, while CIE $b^*$ increased as the addition of GFE increased. Patties with more GFE added tended to be lower in pH when stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 6 wk, but TBARS and VBN were not affected by the addition of GFE. Residual nitrite in patties was lowered as the storage period was lengthened and as the GFE addition was increased. During the storage at $4^{\circ}C$, Escherichia coli was not detected, and the total aerobic bacterial count was decreased as more GFE was added, showing the substitution effect of GFE for nitrite in antimicrobial activity. In conclusion, the results show that GFE has nitrite scavenging and antibiotic activities in meat products, suggesting its potential use in healthy and sustainable foods with diverse biofunctionalities.

A large quantity of fat is added in processing of emulsion sausage. It is bring about deterioration and toxic substance by oxidation. Antioxidants are generally used as a protection material of oxidation for a storage and preservation of foods. In terms of stability of foods and health of human, development of a high effective antioxidants in a natural is required. Chitosan which is made from chitin by processing of deacetylase, has various function of antibiosis, antimutation and antioxidation and so on. We studied about the antioxidation of chitosan using to emulsion sausage. As a results, antioxidative effects of chitosan were increased with th large milecular weight and the higher concentration. M.W. 30,000 and M.W. 120,000 of chitosan have more 20% of antioxidation effect in emulsion sausage. Because chitosan have not 100% of antioxidation effect, we concluded that it has synergy effect by using with other natural material which has an effect of antioxidation.
