Ink-jet printing technology has been widely attractive due to its facility for direct and fine printing on various substrates. Recent studies have focused on expanding the application of ink-jet printing technology from general consumer use and design companies to the prototype production of precision parts and parts manufacturing. The use of ink-jet printing technology in decorated tableware, tiles, and other ceramic products also has many advantages. The printing process is fast and can be adaptable to various kinds of objects because there is no direct contact point between the printer and the substrates to be printed. For application to ceramic product decoration, inks containing highly dispersed inorganic nano-pigments are required. Here we report the synthesis and characterization of blue $CoAl_2O_4$ nanopigment for ink-jet printing. Blue ceramic ink based on the obtained $CoAl_2O_4$ pigment was prepared by dissolving $CoAl_2O_4$ pigment in a mixed solution of ethylene glycol and ethanol with volume ratios of 7:3 and 8:2, respectively, to obtain the appropriate viscosity for ink-jet printing. The ink solution contained 15 wt% of $CoAl_2O_4$ pigment and Cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide(CTAB) and Sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) as dispersive agents. The prepared blue ceramic ink was stably jetted and formed a sphere-shaped droplet from an ink-jet printer.

Background: Dental caries and periodontal disease are bacterial infectious disease, mainly caused by plaque, a bacterial colony deposited on the tooth surface and gum tissue. Dental plaque disclosants easily stain the dental plaque, making them effective for scaling and tooth brushing education. As the erythrosine typically contained in dental plaque disclosants is highly cytotoxic, a low toxicity additive is needed. In this study, we aimed to examine the natural pigments with negligible cytotoxicity but can effectively stain the dental plaques for use in dental plaque disclosants. Methods: The pigmentation of eight types of natural pigments was tested on bovine tongue and teeth, as well as on head and neck tissue sections of experimental ICR mice. The cytotoxicity of gingival epithelial cells was measured via MTT assay. Pigmentation was performed on the bovine tongue and tooth surface. Pigmentation in the oral environment was observed in four mandibular incisors. A 2 Tone was used as a control. Results: Of the eight types of natural pigments, purple and blue pigments were effective in coloring dental plaques on the enamel surface as well as in the head and neck tissue sections. Additionally, purple and blue pigments were visible on the surface of the bovine tongue. Red, pink, orange, green, purple, and yellow pigments showed strong cytotoxicity, whereas brown and blue pigments had relatively low cytotoxicity. Blue pigment was effective in staining the dental plaque of four mandibular incisors. Conclusion: We suggest that the blue pigment derived from Gardenia jasminoides Ellis (Rubiaceae), which is effective for coloring dental plaques and has low cytotoxicity, is useful as a naturally derived dental disclosant.

Light-emitting-diodes (LEDs) are a lighting source useful for the precise evaluation of light quality effect on biological systems. Despite the importance of light spectra on the regeneration of land plant protoplasts ("naked cells"), this factor has not been tested yet on protoplasts from multicellular algae. This study reports on the effects of pure primary colors (red, blue, and green), dichromatic (red plus blue, RB, 1 : 2) and white LEDs on protoplast regeneration from male and female Undaria pinnatifida gametophytes. We also evaluated the effect of different light spectra on pigment composition (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c, and fucoxanthine), and the light intensities under the best condition on the regeneration process. In the early stages, blue or RB LEDs increased the percentage of dividing female protoplasts, whereas red, blue, and RB LEDs enhanced that of dividing male protoplasts. In the later stages, RB LEDs showed a positive effect only on the percentage of multiple rhizoid-like protrusions (male gametophyte). They also increased the final area of both regenerated gametophytes. The LEDs did not affect pigment composition in female gametophytes. In male gametophytes, in contrast, they reduced chlorophyll c, while blue, RB, and green LEDs decreased fucoxanthin. Under RB LEDs, the optimal light intensity was 80 µmol photons m^-2 s^-1 for female gametophytes and 40 to 60 µmol photons m^-2 s^-1 for male gametophytes. Our results suggest that dichromatic LED illumination (red-blue) improves regeneration of U. pinnatifida gametophyte-isolated protoplasts. Thus, dichromatic LEDs might a suitable light source for enhancing protoplast regeneration in brown seaweeds.

In this research, the fundamental experiment for colour concrete(by using pigment) has been invested. Fundamental properties and dyeability for the colour mortar as the changing replacement ratio of pigment has been tested. For the conclusion, with the increasing ratio of pigment, the flow and compressive strength for the mortar has been decreased, For the dyeability, there's little difference when replacement ratio of dyestuff changed when the colour is red and yellow, but large difference when the blue pigment was used. Consider about the workability and strength of the mortar, the optimum pigment's replacement ratio is fixed as 2.5%.

Intact phycobilisomes from a wild-type red Chondrus crispus and its vegetatively derived green mutant were isolated by centrifugation through a discontinuous sucrose density gradient. Pigment composition was subsequently characterized by spectrophotometry. Vegetative thalli of the two strains grown together for six months in the laboratory resulted in different pigment profiles. Two pigmented phycobilisome bands appeared in the sucrose gradient of the wild-type alga, a purple coloured one, and a pink one, whereas only a single blue band appeared in the gradient of the green mutant. Spectrophotometric and fluorescence analyses identified the phycobiliprotein composition of the purple band as the typical phycoerythrin-phycocyanin-allophycocyanin complement in the wild-type, but there was no detectable phycoerythrin present in the blue band of the green mutant. Sodium dodecyl sulphate, preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis confirmed the presence of allophycocyanin subunits in all extracts, but firm evidence of an R-phycoerythrin linker polypeptide in the blue band was missing. These results highlight the ability of C. crispus to adapt to a phycoerythrin deficiency by adjusting light harvesting pigment ratios.

$Al_2O_3$, CoO, $Cr_2O_3$, ZnO, $SrO_2$ 및 Kaolin을 이용하여 무기안료를 제조하였다. 제조방법은 원료분말들을 일정비율로 배합하고 분쇄한 후 소성을 시키고 분쇄 및 건조과정을 거쳐 제조하였다. 안료의 원료 중 $Cr_2O_3$의 비율이 증가할수록 청색에서 녹색으로 발현되는 것을 알 수 있었으며 안료의 조성에 관계없이 소성시킨 안료의 입자크기가 작아질수록 색도가 밝아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 소성시 최고온도는 $1,250^{\circ}C$정도가 가장 적합한 것으로 조사되었다. 안료의 유약적합성 실험에서는 안료 성분 중 $Cr_2O_3$의 비율이 증가할수록 녹색에 가까워졌으며 CoO의 비율이 증가할수록 청색감이 증가하였다.

심희수 초상화 2점의 채색 안료에 대한 분석과 현미경 관찰을 통해 채색 안료의 특성을 조사하였으며 비파괴분석 결과와 비교 검토하였다. 심희수 초상화에 사용된 안료는 색상에 따라 유사한 안료를 사용한 것으로 확인되었다. 적색 안료는 진사/주, 연단을 사용하였으며, 청색 안료는 석청, 녹색 안료는 녹염동광, 백색 안료는 연백을 사용한 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 유사한 형식으로 제작된 17~18세기 조선시대 관복초상화 6점과의 채색 안료를 비교한 결과 제작 시기에 따라 차이를 보였다. 적색 안료의 경우 18세기에 제작된 초상화에서 산화철 계통의 안료가 추가적으로 사용된 특징을 보인다. 청색 안료의 차이점은 18세기 초반까지 사용되지 않았던 회청 안료가 18세기 후반에 제작된 초상화에서 확인된 점이다.

Geniposide, an iridoid glucoside, has been isolated from the butanol fraction of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis (Rubiaceae). The component was found to be transformed into the blue pigments by some aerobic bacteria, suggesting that geniposide is the precursor for the formation of pigments after converting into genipin, an aglycon of geniposide, by ${\beta}-glucosidase$. Some bacteria having a ${\beta}-glucosidase$ activity did not form the pigments, which may mean that the formation of pigments can only be occurred by the reaction of any enzyme or compound in the pigment-producing bacteria.
