The aim of this study was to develop a new natural preservative system to improve the weak points of natural polyhydric alcohols together with the efficiency of natural plants as a preservative. Polyhydric alcohols (glyceryl caprylate and ethylhexylglycerin) and antimicrobial plants (S. radix, A. nilotica and C. reticulata) were tested using the disc diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method for their antimicrobial activity against the common poultry pathogens, respectively. A study of the preservative efficacy of the cosmetic formulations containing the optimized preservative system demonstrated sufficient preservative efficacy against bacteria and eukaryotic test microbes. These results suggest that the natural preservative system including polyhydric alcohol extracts containing natural plants could be incorporated in cosmetic formulations.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the identities and roles so that they can grasp their social roles and directions. Artists show a change in identity from the deification of modern artists with freedom and genius to artists who challenge the cognitive aspect of art and redefine the scope and concept of artists by expanding their social role. Artists dreaming of an ideal art utopia, in which art, society, politics, and daily life are coordinated, are constantly presenting the social role and direction of art through the combination and challenge of new ways of art and craft, beauty and function, creative imagination, and public service. Fashion designers act as contemporary genius artists, creators who express the appearance of the times, practitioners who advocate social values and changes, members of business in the fashion system, celebrities who are spotlighted by the public at the center of the fashion industry, or fashion influencers. Thus, fashion designers are complex or selective in their role depending on the fashion philosophy of individual designers or location given within the fashion system. They are becoming the subject of creating the culture of the times by expressing social ideology or playing a role in practicing art in life that leads social culture so as to raise the value of fashion in their development and satisfy cultural enjoyment of fashion consumers who consume art in everyday life.

Emergence of new mobile communication services has generated new demand for spectrum. Because spectrum is a scarce public resource, demand for spectrum would exceed supply. As the demand for spectrum grows, the spectrum management policy becomes one of the most important issues in mobile telecommunications industry. Huge license charges for spectrum usage may obstruct the growth of mobile telecommunications industry. We analyze spectrum charges by international comparison for the case of 3G mobile telecommunication spectrum assignment. There are mainly two types of methods in spectrum assignment of 3G service, one is the auction and the other is the beauty contest. This article aims to analyze factors which influence on spectrum charges and to study the characteristic of spectrum charges of some selected countries. This study suggests the multiple regression model about spectrum charges.

From the year 2000 on, Seoul has aimed to be a fashion city, and thus has been supporting young designers through Seoul Fashion Creative Studio, Generation Next, Le Dome, Concept Korea, etc. London is famous for nurturing young designers through the joint help of government, schools and industries: Alexander McQueen, Christopher Kane and Peter Pilotto are successful cases. Therefore, this research aims to suggest a direction for policies aimed at helping young designers in the international market, on the basis of London's nurturing programs and ideas from a literature review and case studies. The results are below. Firstly, a step-by-step supporting program is recommended. Secondly, long-lasting, sustainable programs are considered essential to support designers after the end of their contracts. Thirdly, practical assistance is preferred to monetary funding in order to lighten the designers' lot and in the interests of transparency. The mentoring service should be strengthened for the designers to eventually become independent. The support should be tailor-made according to items. Fourthly, the supporting programs should be promoted. Fifthly, government and industries should collaborate. Sixthly, 'de minimis' against overlapped support should be legislated. For these, the change of supporting method can be helpful; an independent administrative organisation plans and collects funds from governments and companies. Through these programs and any subsequent studies, Seoul could become a fashion city where young designers play active roles at a global level.

In this study, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of Colpomenia sinuosa extracts were identified. Antioxidant experiments included DPPH, ABTS, nitrite scavenging experiments, and FRAP, polyphenol concentration measurements, flavonoid concentration measurements. DPPH assay results showed an antioxidant function of 2.821 mg ascorbic acid/g extract. ABTS assay results showed an antioxidant function of 3.923 mg ascorbic acid/g extract. nitrite assay results showed an antioxidant function of 17.89 mg ascorbic acid/g extract. In FRAP, 1 mg of the Colpomenia sinuosa extract showed a reduction of 2.062±0.177 ㎍ of ascorbic acid. For polyphenols, 62.85±3.18 mg/g was shown. Flavonoids showed 10.01±0.24 mg/g. In the meantime, cell experiments showed cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory functions. In cytotoxicity experiments, Colpomenia sinuosa extracts showed cytotoxicity of less than 20% and an inflammatory inhibition of 30.93±2.93% at a concentration of 100 ㎍/mL. These results indicate that Colpomenia sinuosa extract is available as functional cosmetic material.
