This study looked at how New Zealand's national brand is expressed in fashion design. In other words, the objective of this study was to offer a research methodology about the process that the conceptual national brand materializes through design. The method used in this research was the review of previous literature and research reports for New Zealand national branding. A direct market survey on the characteristics of fashion brands in each travel destination was conducted from February 2017 to February 2018. New Zealand announced its slogan for the national brand '100% pure New Zealand' in 1999, and in 2003 it announced the slogan 'new thinking New Zealand' with the value of 'newness' and 'innovation'. It also has 'Maori branding'. The study found that the three slogans had a consistent link from keywords to associated visual images. The above results were compared to the reminiscent visual images extracted from the website contents of the fashion brand. Then, using a t-shirt as an item, the t-shirt corresponding to each group was classified, and the design element analyzed. As a result, the four groups showed images of 'New Zealand ecology image', 'ethnic & Kiwiana image', 'nostalgic travel image' and 'pop image'.

This study attempted to investigate present condition and product planning of global eco-fashion brands that harmonize fashion and sustainability. As research subjects, this study selected 97 oversea fashion brands mentioned in books related to eco-fashion, Black(2011), Brown(2010), Fuad-luke(2009). As for research methods, materials and ethical practices of these selected 97 brands through literature data and their internet site homepages. This study analyzed oversea eco-brands collected 26 British brands, 22 American brands, 36 European brands such as Germany, France, Italy, Sweden, Spain, Finland and so on, except Britain and 13 other regions including Japan, India, Canada, Mexico, and New zealand. In conclusion, the product planning characteristics of these oversea eco-fashion brands can be summarized as follows; community and fair trade, ecological and slow design, recycle, reuse, redesign, and new eco-models. Firstly, brands of 'community and fair trade' manufactured products through fair trade and local community's artisan by ethical practices with organic fabrics. Secondly, brands of 'ecological and slow design' pursued timeless design and multi-functional design as luxury eco-fashion styles. They used organic textiles, hemp, bamboo, soya, tencell, sea cell, and self-sustaining plants. Thirdly, brands of 'recycle, reuse, redesign' aimed for upcycling high-end fashion and used vintage clothes, textile scraps, PET, parachutes, tires, safety belts, advertising banner and so on. In addition, brands of 'new models as eco-fashion' suggested zero-waste cutting, recycling over-printing technology, new sustainable business model, and ethical practices in the supply chain of the fashion industry.

There is an expanding global network of free trade agreements (FTA). High-quality, comprehensive free trade agreements play an important role to support global trade liberalization and are explicitly allowed under the World Trade Organization (WTO) rules. An FTA is an international treaty that removes barriers to trade and facilitates stronger trade and commercial ties that contribute to increased economic integration between participating countries. Korea benefits from the global FTA trend; however it has started and developed FTA negotiations later than other countries. Current FTA agreements exist with Chile, Singapore, EFTA, ASIAN, India, EU, Peru, USA, Turkey, Australia, and Canada; in addition, there are ongoing negotiations with China, Colombia, New Zealand, and Vietnam. FTA open up opportunities for the textile/clothing industry to expand businesses into key overseas markets. FTA improve market access across all areas of trade to help maintain and stimulate the competitiveness of textile/clothing firms. This study examines the expansion of free trade agreements in light of changes in the international trade environment and the status of the Korean textile/clothing industry. Korea's textile/clothing export/import products and concession of tariff, country of origin covered under Korea-US/China FTA are investigated to identify problems. This study provides practical and policy implications for the textile/clothing industry in regards to the Korea-US/China FTA.

This study was carried out to investigate the irritation of the prodigiosin isolated from Zooshikella rubidus on the skin and eyes in New Zealand white rabbits. The tests were performed on the basis of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) guidelines. Prodigiosin induced severe eye irritation at high concentration (0.5 g/site/ml) but there was no eye irritation at low concentration (0.3 mg/sitel ml). The primary irritation index was calculated from higher concentration (0.5 g/site/ml) to lower concentration (0.3 mg/site/ml). There were found non-irritation or induced mild irritation at lower concentration of prodigiosin application. On the basis of this study, it could be concluded that the prodigiosin may be non-irritant to mild irritant of usual application at lower concentration (0.3 mg/site) resulting it is safe and useful in dyeing technology of fabrics.

The effects of crude extracts from medicinal plants on biological activity were investigated. The crude ethanol extract of H. paucistipula inhibited the growth of the Gram positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis ATCC 19659, (2 mm inhibition zone at 150 ㎍/disc) and the dermatophyte Trichophyton mentagrophytes ATCC 28185, (7 mm inhibition zone at 150 ㎍/disc), and toxic to P388 murine leukaemia cells ATCC CCL 46 P388D1, (IC/sub 50/ 2.48 ㎍/㎖ at 75 ㎍/disc). This crude ethanol extract of H. paucistipula is the strongest antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities against P388 murine leukaemia cells ATCC CCL 46 P388D1.

The effects of bioactive fractions from Brachyglottis monroi on biological activity were investigated. this bioactive subfraction 6-5 is the most cytotoxic to P388 murine leukaemia cell lines. A comparison of IC/sub 50/ values of these subfraction in cancer cell lines showed that their susceptibility to these subfractions decreased in the following order; Fr. 6-5 > Fr. 6-3 > Fr. 6-6 > Fr. 6-1 > Fr. 6-2 > Fr. 6-4 by the MTT method. Silica gel flash column chromatography concentrated the cytotoxic activity in subfraction 6-5 which eluted with 30% and 40% ethyl acetate : hexane gave a major bioactive (51 mg, P388 IC/sub 50/ 8,286 ng/mL at 7.5 ㎍/disc).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the lateral displacement on the mandibular condylar growth in the rabbit. The experimental animals were twenty White NewZealand rabbits of 4-week old. Ten of them was used as control group, and experimental animal was composed of remaining ten. Laterodeviation appliance was made of cast base metal and appliance was cemented with resin in permanent fashion. Experimental group were sacrificed at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks form beginning of the experiment. Both of temporomandibular joint were prepared for histologic study. The conclusions are: 1. In control group, there was slight increase of proliferative zone and hypertrophic zone at 2-week control animal and slight reduction at 4-week. 6-week and 8-week control animal were similiar to 1-week control animal. 2. In right mandibular condyle of experimental group, 2-week experimental animal showed marked increase of proliferative zone and hypertrophic zone at posterior surface of condylar head. In 8-week experimental animal marked increase at anterior surface of anticular surface is observed. 3. In left mandibular condyle of experimental group, proliferative zone and hypertrophic zone were reduced at 1-week experimental animal and slight increase at 2-week. Proliferative zone and hypertrophic zone were reduced at 4-week experimental animal and were slightly increased at 6 week. 4. After 8 weeks, right and left condyle were not different in experimental group. The condylar cartilage was stabilized 8 weeks after the experiment. No marked traumatic change was seen, but minute focal bleeding was seen at articular cavity in 1-week, 2-week and 4-week experimental animal. 6-week and 8-week experimental animal did not show bleeding tendency in articular cavity.
