  • Green tea was prepared by soaking 1.5 g of green tea leaves into 100 mL of distilled water at $75^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. The green tea was stored at three different conditions - (A) green tea was stored at not-artificially excluding natural light condition, at natural air condition, and without addition of vitamin C; (B) green tea was stored at artificially excluding natural light condition by wrapping a vial with aluminium foil, at nitrogen filling up condition, and with addition of 30 mg/100 mL of vitamin C; and (C) green tea was stored at artificially excluding natural light condition by wrapping a vial with aluminium foil, at nitrogen filling up condition, and without addition of vitamin C. After 28 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$, the chemical quality of the green tea was evaluated. Total phenolic contents of (A), (B), and (C) green tea decreased to 71.50, 73.88 and 75.07%, respectively, after storing for 28 days compared to those of beginning state. DPPH radical scavenging activities of (A), (B), and (C) green tea were 87.87, 92.93 and 88.39%, respectively. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the main active compounds of green tea, contents of (A), (B), and (C) green tea were 130.61, 136.47 and 4.34%, respectively. The results indicated that light, air condition, and vitamin C were significantly important to the chemical quality of green tea during storage.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effect of green space satisfaction on the relationship between the perception of air pollution and life satisfaction. To achieve this, the current study employed data from the 2018 Social Survey, and a sample of 37,461 participants was analyzed using moderated multiple regression analysis. Results showed that while greater satisfaction with green spaces improved life satisfaction, a more negative perception of air pollution within the community reduced life satisfaction. It was also found that green space satisfaction moderated the relationship between the perception of air pollution and life satisfaction. In other words, greater satisfaction with green spaces buffered the effect of a negative perception of air pollution on life satisfaction. The results of this study suggest that a green environment should be considered an important resource for preventing reduced life satisfaction, and illustrate that there is a need for developing various strategies for the expansion and improvement of green spaces within communities.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of satisfaction with green space on life satisfaction and to examine mediating effect of subjective health status in the relationship between satisfaction with green space and life satisfaction of older adults living in cities. For the purpose of the study, older adults aged over 65 years old who participated in 2018 Social Survey conducted by Statistics Korea were analyzed. A total of 4,567 older adults were analyzed using multiple regression analyses and significance of mediating effect was examined using bootstrapping method. Results of the analyses showed that satisfaction with green space had a significant effect on life satisfaction. Since a higher level of satisfaction with green space increased the level of life satisfaction, a direct effect of satisfaction with green space on life satisfaction was revealed. Also satisfaction with green space had a significant effect on subjective health status, so persons with a higher level of satisfaction with green space perceive their subjective health more positively. In regard to mediating effect, subjective health status partially mediated the relationship between satisfaction with green space and life satisfaction of the urban elderly. Results of this study show that green space can be used as an intervention method to improve health and life satisfaction of the urban elderly.

  • Effect of mean stress on the fatigue life of natural rubber for engine mount was investigated. Fatigue damage parameter based on the maximum Green-Lagrange strain was employed to account for the effect of mean stress. A procedure to predict the fatigue life of rubber components based on the maximum Green-Lagrange strain method was proposed. Nonlinear finite element analysis and fatigue test of jang-gu shape specimen were conducted to predict the fatigue life of engine mount. Predicted fatigue lives have a good agreement with tested lives within a factor of 3.

  • The aim of the study is to look at the relationships among emotional dimensions, commitment to environment, consumer typology, and quality of life. For this study, 303 students completed the questionnaires and SPSS and Amos 4 were employed. The findings are: First, positive emotion increases commitment to environment. Second, commitment to environment encourages green consumer behaviors and quasi-green consumer behaviors while it reduces non-green consumer behaviors. Third, green consumer behaviors increase quality of life while quasi-green consumer behaviors and non-green consumer behaviors do not have any influence on quality of life. Some practical implications are included.

  • To identify genes involved in the decolorization of brilliant green, we isolated random mutants generated by transposon insertion in brilliant green-decolorizing bacterium, Citrobacter sp. The resulting mutant bank yielded 19 mutants with a complete defect in terms of the brilliant green color removing ability. Southern hybridization with a Tn5 fragment as a probe showed a single hybridized band in 7 mutants and these mutants appeared to have insertions at different sites of the chromosome. Tn5-inserted genes were isolated and the DNA sequence flanking Tn5 was determined. By comparing these with a sequence database, putative protein products encoded by bg genes were identified as follows: bg 3 as a LysR-type regulatory protein; bg 11 as a MalG protein in the maltose transport system; bg 14 as an oxidoreductase; and bg 17 as an ABC transporter. The sequences deduced from the three bg genes, bg 2, bg 7 and bg 16, showed no significant similarity to any protein with a known function, suggesting that these three bg genes may encode unidentified proteins responsible for the decolorization of brilliant green.

  • In this study, eco-friendly hybrid composite boards were manufactured from green tea and wood fibers for application as interior materials with various functionalities of green tea and strong strength properties of wood fibers. In this relation, the effect of green tea content on dynamic MOEs (modulus of elasticity) of these green tea and wood fibers composite boards were investigated. The dynamic MOEs of hybrid composite boards were lower than those of control boards without green tea, and the values decreased with the increase of green tea content. Also, the dynamic MOEs appeared to be somewhat different by resin type used for board manufacture. The hybrid composite boards manufactured from $E_1$ grade urea resin, which has higher molar ratio of formaldehyde to urea than that of $E_0$ grade one, were 1.06~1.54 times higher than that manufactured from $E_0$ grade. And, the differences between hybrid composite boards manufactured from both adhesive increased with the increase of green tea content. On the other hand, high correlations were found between dynamic MOE and static bending strength performances, it was concluded that static bending strength performances could be estimated from the dynamic MOE, except for a few hybrid board types with large variations.
