Natural dyeing is considered to be an alternative to chemical staining in terms of harmful VOC-free and environmentally-friendly ingredient. This study was concerned with an evaluation of color performance of naturally dyed- and painted veneer for cylindrical laminated veneer lumber etc. according to the used condition in terms of existence of light and heat in drying. From the results, the color changes by the color of dyed veneer and the type of paint are likely to be affected by fading condition of light or heat. In the future, long-term outdoor exposure test needs to be additionally followed in order to evaluate durable usability of colored veneers.

Mt. Jiri located in the southwestern part of Korea is a treasure trove of wild medicinal plants. More than 1200 species currently classified as herbs are grown or cultivated in the area. Recently, safflower has attracted interest because of its ability to control fine wrinkle formation on the neck. The objective of this study therefore was to determine whether the active ingredient of safflower could be used in the form of an extract to reduce wrinkle formation in individuals aged 30 to 59 years. In particular, this study was aimed at determining the extract’s elastase activity and anti-oxidant effect by using DPPH assay in vitro and evaluating the anti-wrinkle efficacy of different types of safflower extracts in improving fine wrinkles on the neck. This study will provide a basis for future studies to develop safflower extracts using advanced composition technology and contribute to the development of the herbal cosmetics industry.

Shiranuhi is a fruit of Citrus species widely cultivated in Jeju Island, Korea. From an extract of Shiranuhi tree branches were identified five polymethoxyflavones possessing anti-inflammatory effects; nobiletin (1), sinensetin (2), tetramethylscutellarein (3), 6-hydroxy-5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxyflavone (4) and 5-desmethylsinensetin (5). Evaluation of the activities was conducted by monitoring the production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E₂ and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6) as well as the levels of iNOS and COX-2 protein expression in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. Among the isolates, the compound 4 exhibited the most significant NO inhibition, and suppressed the levels of iNOS and related cytokines. Therefore, it was suggested that the extract and constituents from Shiranuhi tree branches could be useful as anti-inflammatory ingredient.

The effect of homobrassinolide (HBL) on the nutrient value of Curcuma longa L. (turmeric) rhizome grown in Nizamabad, Telangana State, India was studied. Application of homobrassinolide (HBL) as foliar spray to turmeric plants on the 20^th, 40^th and 60^th day from sowing resulted in enhanced chemical composition of turmeric rhizome. Application of homobrassinolide (HBL) resulted in enhanced total sugars, principal ingredient curcumin, total poly phenol content, total flavonoid content, total tannin content, crude fat, crude fibre and essential oils (turmerone, zingiberene, cineole and p-cymene) present in the turmeric rhizome indicating the ability of homobrassinolide (HBL) as a potential plant growth regulator (PGR).

Barley is an important cereal gain which is traditionally used in some nations of Asia and North Africa, and there has been growing interest in using barley as an ingredient in food due to their nutritional value and high content of phyto-constituents. However, no study report on comparative feed value between sprouted barley, cornflake and alfalfa hay. Therefore, in this study we aimed to evaluate the chemical composition, amino acid profile and mineral content of 6 day sprouted barley fodder (SBF) compared with cornflake and alfalfa hay using by AOAC method, as an alternative feed ingredient. Results showed that SBF had higher content of crude protein, acid detergent insoluble crude proteins and neutral detergent insoluble crude protein than alfalfa hay and cornflake; cornflake had higher crude fiber, neutral detergent fiber content than SBF and alfalfa hay; alfalfa hay had higher crude fiber, crude ash, acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber and lignin level than SBF and cornflake. Also, significant differences were found on amino acid content among them (p<0.01). The most abundant amino acid in SBF was glutamate (123 g/kg DM), which is higher than in alfalfa hay (1.27%) or cornflake (1.58%). However, methionine (1.33%) and cysteine (1.53%) were the least abundant amino acids in SBF compared with cornflake or alfalfa hay. Furthermore, our study results exhibited that SBE comprise a good sources of minerals including ferrous (90.01 mg/kg) followed by zinc (20.50 mg/kg), magnesium (0.20 mg/kg) and sodium (0.03 mg/kg) as compared to cornflake and alfalfa hay. The present research findings, confirmed that the nutritional values of SBF are comparable to those of cornflake and alfalfa hay. Hence, SBF can be a better alternative feed ingredient for cornflake or alfalfa hay. However, feeding trials will be required to determine acceptability of SBF for ruminant production.

KNF-1002는 strobilurin계 합성 살균 활성물질로 여러 가지 식물병에 대하여 예방효과가 우수한 것으로 보고되었지만, 작물의 경엽 침투성이 매우 약하여 보랴 흰가루병 등에 대한 치료효과는 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 Congo Red 방법을 이용하여 KNF-1002의 보리와 밀의 경엽 침투성과 부착량을 동시에 증진할 수 있는 물질을 선발하고 이를 이용하여 보리 흰가루병에 대한 방제 효과가 증진된 제제를 개발하고자 하였다. KNF-1002를 100 mg/L 함유하는 acetone 수용액으로 보리 잎에 분무하였을 때 24시간 동안 유효성분의 0.1%가 침투하였지만, heptaethylene glycol monooctadecenyl cther(OE-7), dodccacthylene glycol monohexadecyl ethcr(CE-12) 등의 계명활성제를 500 mg/L 첨가하였을 때는 침투율이 최고 48.5%까지 증가하였다. 계면활성제를 함유하는 KNF-1002 분무용 용액은 밀에 대해서도 침투성과 부착성을 매우 증진하였으며, 그 효과는 polyoxyethylene계 계면활성제의 지방족 알콜의 종류와 ethylene oxide 부가몰수에 따라 달랐다. 침투성과 부착량을 동시에 증진할 수 있는 보조제로써 nonacthylene glycol monododccyl ether(LE-9)틀 함유하는 KNF-1002 제제는 보리 흰가루병에 대한 방제효과를 뚜렷하게 증진하는 것으로 나타났다.

This work describes neo-fructooligosaccharides (neo-FOSs) production using the immobilized mycelia of Penicillium citrinum. Some critical factors were evaluated to optimize maximal production of neo-FOS. Optimal alginate and cell concentrations were determined to be $1.96\%$ alginate and $7.17\%$ cell, respectively, by statistical analysis. The optimal concentration of $CaCl_{2}$, which is related to bead stability, was determined to be 2 M. It was possible to increase the neo-FOS production by adding 15 units of glucose oxidase to the batch reaction. By co-immobilizing cells and glucose oxidase, neoFOS productivity increased $123\%$ compared with the whole-cell immobilization process. Based on the results above, a co-immobilization technique was developed and it can be utilized for large-scale production.

An ${\alpha}$-Ferrite (Fe) powder dispersed with 4 vol.% of $Al_2O_3$ was successfully produced by a simple miling at 210 K with a mixture of $Fe_2O_3$, Fe and Al ingredient powders, followed by 2 step high temperature consolidation: Hot Pressing (HP) at 1323 K and then Hot Isostatic Pressing at 1423 K. The microstructure of the consolidated material was characterized by standard metallographic techniques such as XRD (X-ray Diffraction), TEM and STEM-EDS. The results of STEM-EDS analysis showed that the HIPed materials comprised a mixture of pure Fe matrix with a grain size of ~20 nm and $Al_2O_3$ with a bimodal size distribution of extremely fine (~5 nm) and medium size dispersoids (~20 nm). The mechanical properties of the consolidated materials were characterized by compressive test and micro Vickers hardness test at room temperature. The results showed that the yield strength of the ODS (Oxide Dispersion Strengthened) Fe alloy are as much as $674{\pm}39$ MPa and the improvement of the yield strength is attributed to the presence of the fine $Al_2O_3$ dispersoid.

기능성식품으로 시판되는 건강음료를 HPLC 분석한 결과 발기부전치료제로 허가받은 비아그라$^{(R)}$의 활성주성분인 실데나필과 구조적으로 유사한 부정첨가물질이 발견되었다. 이 부정첨가물질의 구조를 규명하기 위해 건강음료를 methylene chloride로 추출한 다음 그 추출물을 semipreparative HPLC로 정제하였다. 분리된 물질의 화학구조는 IR, LC/MS-ESI, NMR 분광학으로 규명하였는데 실데나필과 유사한 특징을 보였고 구조상의 유일한 차이는 실데나필의 methylpiperazine 부분구조를 부정첨가물질에서 hydroxyethylpiperazine으로 치환한 것이었다.
