  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mixed treatment of compost tea and amino acid liquid fertilizer as a substitute of oil cake for the organic cultivation of maize in Goesan, Chungbuk province. As a result, nitrogen, phosphoric acid, potassium, calcium and magnesium contents of each organic fertilizer were in the order of oil cake > amino acid fertilizer > compost tea. Each of these organic fertilizers had little influence on the change of soil chemical. Individual treatment of amino acid fertilizer and oil cake for weight of an ear as well as all individual treatments for the fresh weight of 100 kernels showed significant increase, compared to the untreated control. For the corn yield of merchantable quality, each treatment of compost tea, amino acid liquid fertilizer and oil cake increased higher 3.9, 5.4 and 5.9% than untreated control, respectively. On the other hand, as a result of mixed treatment of amino acid fertilizer and compost tea, the change of soil chemical property was insignificant. The mixed treatment, Nonetheless, showed significant increase for stem height to 1st ear, grain setting length in an ear, weight of an ear, and fresh weight of 100 kernels, compared to the oil cake as a control. After all, the corn yield of merchantable quality produced by the mixed treatment was 3.9% higher than the control. Therefore, our study would be considered that the mixed treatment of amino acid and compost tea is one of organic materials that can replace oil-cake in maize.

  • Sometimes inhabitants in remote areas have inadequate or no access to modern medicines or medical services. They can get benefit in term of the treatment against malaria by cultivating selected breeding of A. annua and making teas or decoctions from the plant materials following the proper way of tea preparation. In order to have the maximum extraction efficiency for artemisinin, different ways of tea preparations of A. annua were investigated by applying the developed DPP method and described in this article. Tea was prepared by three different ways (cooking, without cooking with/without shaking and microwave oven) with different times. From the results, it has been found that higher concentration of artemisinin (84.7%) can be attained by following the approach for tea preparation without cooking with shaking for 15 minutes (R.S.D. 2.34%). The concentration of artemisinin decreases with cooking more than 1.5 min in microwave oven. The utmost extraction (88.9% of artemisinin) is possible to extract by shaking with boiled 5% ethanol in distilled water (R.S.D. 2.28%).

  • In this work, caffeine and some catechin compounds + C, EC, EGC, and EGCG were extracted from green tea by using molecular imprinted polymers (MIP) as sorbent materials in a solid-phase extraction (SPE) process known as MISPE (molecular imprinted solid-phase extraction). For synthesis of MIP, caffeine was employed as the template, MAA as the monomer, EGDMA as the crosslinker, and AIBN as the initiator. A solution of caffeine (0.2 mg/mL in methanol) was utilized in the solid extraction cartridges following loading, washing, and elution procedures with acetonitrile, methanol, and methanol-acetic acid (90/10, %v/v) as the solvents, respectively. This solid-phase extraction protocol was applied for the extraction of caffeine and some catechin compounds from green tea. A comparison was made between the results obtained with the MIP cartridges and a traditional C18 reversed-phase cartridge. It was thereupon found that the recovery of caffeine by the MIPbased sorbent used in this work was almost two and four times greater than that by a commercially available C18 material. A quantitative analysis was conducted by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a C18 column (5 μm, 250 × 4.6 mm) with methanol/water (40/60, %v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min.

  • We evaluated the proximate compositions of raw materials, total polyphenols, total flavonoids, and radical scavenging activities of roasted maize tea according to cultivation period and variety. Proximate compositions of raw materials were significantly different according to cultivation period and variety, and quality characteristics of roasted maize tea extracts were significantly different according to cultivation period. Total polyphenols, total flavonoids, and radical scavenging activities of roasted maize tea were significantly different before and after roasting. The total polyphenol content of Pyeonggangok cultivar sown on April 5th was elevated about 3.60-fold before and after roasting by $3.42{\pm}0.16$ and $12.22{\pm}0.67mg$ gallic acid equivalents/g, respectively. Overall, total polyphenol content was higher in roasted maize tea produced using maize sown on April 5th. 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity of Gangdaok cultivar sown on April 5th was elevated about 31.6-fold before and after roasting by $7.61{\pm}1.93$ and $240.37{\pm}8.82mg$ Trolox equivalents (TE)/g, respectively. 2,2'-Azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical scavenging activity of Pyeonggangok cultivar sown on April 5th was elevated about 5.5-fold before and after roasting by $153.84{\pm}1.32$ and $843.54{\pm}3.64mg$ TE/g, respectively. The correlation between proximate compositions of raw materials and quality as well as antioxidant characteristics of roasted maize tea showed overall significance.

  • We evaluated the applicability of baking soda, charco'al, coffee, and green tea as a natural deodorant in Kimchi packaging. Moreover, to evaluate the potential usage of these deodorants in packaging materials and confirm their applicability in high-temperature melt-extrusion processing, the thermal stabilities of the deodorants were investigated, and heat-treated deodorants were evaluated in terms of the deodorizing function compared with non-treated deodorants. Aroma patterns were decreased after deodorizing treatment with all-natural deodorants. Dimethyl disulfide, methyl trisulfide, and diallyl disulfide, the most significant odorous Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of Kimchi, decreased after treatment with the deodorants. In particular, baking soda and charcoal showed the highest efficiency in removing odorous compounds and VOCs from Kimchi, even after high-temperature processing. The acetic acid removal rates for both baking soda and charcoal were 99.9±0.0%. The heating process increases the deodorizing effects of baking soda. Sensory evaluation results showed that there is a significant increase (p < 0.05) in the overall preference for Kimchi samples packaged with charcoal and baking soda. This study provides useful information for the deodorization effects of natural deodorants for Kimchi smell and their applicability for packaging materials.

  • $CO_2$ lasers are used in the various industrial fields since the development of $CO_2$ laser in 1964 It is because $CO_2$ laser is more efficient, more powerful than other lasers and $CO_2$ laser light of wavelength $10.6{\mu}m$ interacts with materials well. Thus $CO_2$ laser is used for industrial application such as cutting, punching, welding, surface treatment of metal and nonmetalic materials, isotope separation, etc. Already other research institutes including some universities have recognized the advantages and importance of the $CO_2$ laser, and studied it. However, its technology is in elementary state yet Therefore,we started this study to develop present $CO_2$ laser technology more highly and to fit it. The main purposes of this study are to acquire various technologies such as high voltage, high pressure glow discharge, vaccum and optical cavity design.

  • The optimum extraction conditions of green tea used for a bath were investigated for application to textiles. The stability of the extracts and content of active ingredients were analyzed as well. The extraction was more effective in water and methanol than in ethanol. The optimum extraction temperature was determined as $80^{\circ}C$ in water and $60^{\circ}C$ in methanol. The solid extracts were obtained about 7% in water and 9% in methanol on the weight of dry green tea. The extracts were more stable in acid and neutral conditions than in alkaline region. From the analysis of contents of active ingredients, about 20% of effective catechins was appeared to be contained in the extract solid, which was thought to be available for application to textiles.
