The objective of this study was to clarify the effect of addition of green tea powder(0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%) to Yackwa on quality and preservation. Addition of 4% green tea powder turned out to give positive effect on expansion. In test of physical characters, addition of green tea powder had a tendency to lower hardness, cohesiveness, springness and gumminess but to enhance brittleness. Considering the rancidity of oil within Yackwa, addition of green tea powder tended to show lower acid value and peroxide value than non-added treatment but its difference was slight. At the sensory test, surface color, bitterness and green tea flavor were strong but sweet and savory taste weak when green team powder was added(p<0.05). Overall quality appeared to have improved to 5.55 points which is compared to non-addition when the powder was added 4%(p<0.05). In conclusion, 4% addition of green tea powder would be the usefull method to enhance preference and quality of Yackwa.

The purpose of this study is to explore elderly women's experience of the convergent tea culture therapy program when they use day care centers, ultimately getting a better understanding of such experience. For the purpose, the study made profound interviews with 4 old women who experienced the convergent tea culture therapy program from its start to final session. That program was provided by H day care center located in P city. And then, this research analyzed data from those interviews by using the phenomenological methods. As a result of the analysis, the study could divided the surveyed female elders' experience of the above mentioned program largely into 4 categories, which are, 'getting away from daily routines', 'feeling as if I'm the queen when having tea', 'finding myself feeling younger with tea', and 'feeling the true sense of happiness with tea'. With this result taken into serious consideration, this study suggested that more attention and intervention be urgently needed in the field of senior welfare practices, especially leisure activity for elders which is currently in trouble due to the covid-19 crisis.

Green Tea consists of 15-30% catechins (a type of polyphenol), which act as super antioxidants, inhibitory action against aging process. Antioxidants fight radical-free oxygen, an agent which can begin the process of cancer by damaging essential body chemicals and harming DNA. This study was peformed to develop the elderly diet using Green Tea as an inhibitory action against aging process. Nokchaborijook (Baley gruel added rice powder and Green Tea) was manufactured by various levels of Green Tea(1, 4, 7%) and the grinding period(15, 30, 45 sec). The optimum levels of added Green Tea and grinding periods on Nokchaborijook were determined with the results of sensory evaluation by response surface methodology and analysis of composition. The Anti-oxidant Vitamin A, C, E and Flavonoid were increased with increased levels of Green Tea and grinding periods be decreased. As the levels of Green Tea and grinding periods were increased, the green color and penetrated force became stronger. Among the sensory attributes, Bitterness, Green Tea Flavor and Hashness were greater depending on increasing Green Tea. Jujube flavor was greater relying on decreasing Green Tea. Greenness and spreadability of particles were increased as both the amounts of Green Tea and the grinding period were increased. This result was used to determine the optimum conditions of adding levels of Green Tea and grinding periods. The optimum conditions of Nokchaborijook was established as adding of 5.8% Green Tea grinded for 15 seconds.

Quality characteristics of dasik were studied with varied the levels of rice grain particle size and green tea powder and compared them with commercially sold dasik. Among the samples with the same number of grinding times, the sample groups with the higher amount of green tea showed significantly the less mosture content(p<0.05). Hardness was higher in the samples containing higher amount of green tea among the ones with the same grain size (p<0.05). The M13G0.5 was evaluated to have the highest savory aroma with significance (p<0.05), and C1 to have the highest sweetness by sensory analysis. The developed dasik samples with lower rice grain particle size had significantly lower adhesiveness, chewiness, gumminess, and cohesiveness compared to those of commercial sample groups. In sensory tests, the compared groups showed significantly the higher savory aroma and flavor and very lower hardness when compared to those of commercial sample groups. With the results above, dasik with with varied the levels of rice grain particle size and green tea powder were developed with improved qualities compared to those of commercially sold dasik.

This article is the result of a comprehensive research of Lu tong(盧仝)'s . First of all, this research looked into the tea culture and literary trend of 'tea-poetry[茶詩]' writing that prospered at the time as a background for to be created. Subsequently, the relationship between Lu tong and Han-meng poet's school[韓孟詩派] was discussed to establish the background of the 'Lu tong style(盧仝體)'. And the format and content of were analyzed based on the characteristics of 'Lu tong style'. Through the above discussion, this study examined why was able to gain the reputation of being " the best poetry in the world for tea ". In addition, was later being 'diangu(典故)', affecting not only China but also Korean poems. This paper also figured out that Su shi(蘇軾) in China, Li se(李穡) in Goryeo, and Xu Juzheng(徐居正) in Joseon used diangu of most frequently.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of green tea powder on the growth and acid production of lactic culture in reconstituted skim milk. The supplementation level of green tea powder to reconstituted skim milk was $0.5\%,\;1.0\%,\;1.5\%,\;2.0\%\;and\;2.5\%$. Reconstituted skim milk containing green tea powder was fermented by single or mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei. Supplementation of green tea powder did not significantly stimulate growth and acid production of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus casei. But the growth and acid production of Lactobacillus acidophilus were slightly enhanced by the addition of green tea powder. When green tea powder was added to reconstituted skim milk at the level of $0.5\%\;or\;1.0\%$, all mixed cultures oi lactic acid bacteria showed high number of viable cell count and the acid production than 3 kinds of single cultures. Therefore, it was suggested to manufacture the yoghurt with the addition of $0.5\~1.0\%$ green tea powder and the inoculation of mixed cultures of lactic acid bacteria for on the stimulation of growth of the lactic culture.

Of all the various types of tea that are available, Pu-erh tea has attracted much attention because of its healthpromoting effects. The objective of this study was to investigate the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of two types of Pu-erh tea, Gushu Pu-erh and typical Pu-erh, extracted at 80 and 100℃, respectively. The Gushu Pu-erh extracts showed lower pH but higher antioxidant potential at both the temperatures, as compared to the typical Pu-erh. The mineral content of the tea extracts was greater at 100℃ than at 80℃. Among the seven categories of the flavor compounds that were detected, the peak area of esters was the highest in the Gushu Pu-erh extracts. The type of tea and the extraction temperature significantly affected the physicochemical and functional properties of these tea extracts. This study revealed that Gushu Pu-erh extracted at 100℃ for 3 min with 30 s of shaking provides better results in terms of the antioxidant potential and mineral content.

This study examines the effects of the Korean horticultural foods which are, by traditional wisdom, supposed to contain anti-aging substance. All twenty three kinds of plants are chosen as a sample for the experiment in which the content of three main anti-aging nutrients, -carotene, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E are respectively measured by Nilis, Colorimetric, and AOAC method. The result shows: among the samples, top six plants that contain the most -carotene content are high quality tea(Camellia sinensis), thistle(Cirsium japonicum Var.), Angelica keiskei, mulberry leaves(Morus alba l.), field horsetail(Equisetum arvensa), and carrot(Daucus carota), in order; top four for a Vitamin C contents are low quality tea, mulberry leaves, pine leaves(Pinus densiflora), and high quality tea, in order; top four for a Vitamin E contents are persimmon leaves(Diospyros mongolicum) tea, high quality tea, low quality tea, and pine leaves, in order. Drying or boiling process increases the content of -carotene and Vitamin E in high quality tea, dropwort(Oenanthe javanica), field horsetail, and wild aster(Ligularia stenocephala Marsumum et Koldzumi), while, in case of mulberry leaves, drying process lowers them. Vitamin C content strikingly decreases in heating and drying process.

In order to determine whether green tea tannin ameliorates abnormal arginine metabolism as the result of excessive arginine, we have assessed the effects of the administration of green tea tannin mixture in rats treated 30 days with 2% arginine. In the arginine-treated group, the level of guanidino compounds such as arginine (Arg), guanidinoacetic acid (GAA), creatinine (Cr), methylguanidine (MG) and guanidinosuccinic acid (GSA), nitric oxide, urea, protein and glucose increased significantly in the serum, urine and kidney, whereas the oxygen species-scavenging enzymes of kidney were reduced as compared with the non-arginine-treated group. By way of contrast, the administration of green tea tannin reduced blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine, and reduced the urinary excretion of guanidinoacetic acid, creatinine, and $NO_2^-+NO_3^-$. The increased levels of urinary urea, protein and glucose in the arginine-treated group were also lowered by the administration of green tea tannin. In these groups, the activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase in the kidney were increased, thereby suggesting the involvement of radicals in the normalizing of kidney function. These results show that the abnormal renal function induced by the adminstration of excessive arginine in rats may be restored by treatment with green tea tannin.
