In-vivo and in-vitro NMR Microscopy has been performed to investigate the histological and/or pathological difference between the normal and the abnormal skin layers. The acquired images in the present study were able to provide the information of both the relaxation changes and the histological changes due to skin abnormality. The present study is also intended to show the possibility of NMR Microscopy application to both the noninvasive investigation of skin pathology and the helpful use in the development of cosmetics.

Intrinsic safety is generally considered the safest method of operating electrical instrumention in potentially explosive atmospheres. The method of intrinsic safety limits the energy passing into the hazardus area. The energy limitation is provided by the use of safety barriers which are mounted in the safe area. Because of the energy limitation, regardless of the fault in the hazardous area, sufficient energy cannot be released to ignite the explosive atmosphere. The following industries are known to have hazardous locations: chemical. munitions, petrochemical, auto(paint spray booths), grain, waste water, printing, distillers, pharmaceutical. breweries, cosmetics, and utilities. In this paper, a isolator type barrier for ship(LNG, LPG, etc,) and test equipment confidence are proposed. The test equipments are designed for mechanical electrical life time test and vibration. All of test results satisfy the goal and the studied barrier shows the improved confidence.

This study is on the feasibility of use of glycoprotein in various areas such as cosmetics and food etc. by extracting, isolating and refining glycoprotein from carrots, red ginseng extract residue, sesame and pine needles using protease(pepsin) and by analyzing general characteristics and measuring various bioactivities. The results of analysis of nutritional composition showed protein contents of glycoprotein. In the analysis of constitutive amino acids, the ratio of contents of hydroxy proline and glycine, the characteristics of glycoproteins appeared similar and the contents of glutamic acid and aspartic acid appeared higher. As a result of measurement contents of total polyphenol and flavonoid, it showed that glycoprotein had more contents generally, and the effect of bioactivity of glycoprotein appeared higher although different kinds of glycoprotein showed a little DPPH radical and nitrite scavenging ability, total antioxidant capacity by ABTS, ACE inhibitory.

This research was carried out to investigate the moisturizing effects of Agarum cribrosum extract on normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs). Moisturizing effects of A. cribrosum extract on NHEKs were measured by quantitative realtime RT-PCR to verify the gene expressions related to skin hydration, hyaluronic acid (HA)-ELISA to detect HA production, and cell viability assays. A. cribrosum extract increased the mRNA levels of the AQP3 and HAS2 genes and HA production in NHEKs. On the other hand, A. cribrosum extract decreased the mRNA level of the KRT1 and KRT10 genes known as differentiated keratinocyte marker in NHEKs. This research showed the moisturizing effects of A. cribrosum extract. The results indicate that A. cribrosum extract can be a potent functional ingredient for skin hydration and anti-aging products. Further study is warranted regarding the use of A. cribrosum extract to develop not only cosmetics but also food and medicine.

In-vivo and in-vitro MR Microscopy has been performed to investigate any differences in-between the normal and the abnormal skin layers. Noninvasively acquired images could provide the skin histology. Also, it was found that the epidermis of the abnormal skin was thickened more than that of normal skin. MR Microscopy utilized for the present study may be applicable to the noninvasive investigation of skin pathology and this technique may be of use in the development of cosmetics.

The purpose of this study is to develop a method to evaluate solubility parameter interactions of cosmetic ingredients in formulations. This experimentation relates to the fabrication of new multi-layer cleansing oil which can remove make-up products such as lipstick, foundation, mascara, eye shadow, etc., and also can wash away dirt and sebum from the skin just in one stage process. Solubility parameter and specific gravity of various cosmetic ingredients are measured to explain the cleanliness of interface, detergency of make-up cosmetics on the skin surface. The results suggest that it is possible for cosmetic chemists to use solubility parameter of cosmetic materials for fabrication of new formulation of 3-layer cleansing oil.

In order to use the Schizandra chinensis seed oil as a basic material of cosmetic component, the research was done by analyzed components of Schizandra chinensis seed oil and evaluation it's stability with GC and GC/MSD. As a result, it's main component were showed as palmitic acid and oleic acid. It has excellent stability because it's ingredients did not change under the heat. Also, the antioxidant effect used DPPH(1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) test method, indicated higher radical scavenging ability compare to widely-use macademia nut oil and olive oil. Collagen synthesis effect also appeared outstanding. Therefore, the Schizandra chinensis seed oil was determined that it has possibility to be used well for cosmetic material.

Natural colorants are regarded as substitutes for synthetic colorants in the fields of fiber dyeing, hair dyeing, cosmetic, and food industries. The use of natural colorants has been increased in view of global environment and sustainability. However, scientific approach to the production is required because the supply of natural colorants depends on the climate, soil, and cultivation methods. This brief review contains the advances in science and technology related to natural colorants including characterization, analysis, CIEL^*a^*b^* and Munsell color systems, and future prospects. For the characterization and the analysis of natural colorants, chromatography, some spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis, FT-IR, NMR), mass spectrometry, and X-ray diffraction are generally used.

This article focused on all that matter that effect brand switching. For that we selected college students especially live inner city and outskirts of Seoul. also this empirical study limits sample to female only. The reason is this study will only concentrate on the usage of cosmetics that for basic skin care products. we presume the brand switching factors would be advertising satisfaction of product, promotion, anecdotal effect of gods, corporate image and brand image. The results shows our study frame was apparently accurate. we expect the finding about brand switching on this article gives some weighted clues to establish brand switching marketing strategies. Because our study deals with new tendencies of the newest generation that use basic skin care products.

The purposes of this study were to categorize female consumers based on appearance satisfaction and to examine the differences among the categorized groups on appearance types and appearance perceptions (appearance interest, stress related to appearance, and the extent of cosmetics use). A total of 518 responses collected from a questionnaire survey to female consumers was analyzed. Cluster analysis on appearance satisfaction identified four groups including the types of: Feature satisfaction(32%); Skin satisfaction(31%); Dissatisfaction(19%); and Overall satisfaction(16%). Chi-square and ANOVA analyses revealed significant differences among the four groups on the 6 appearance types (face line, face size, skin tone, skin blemish, skin elasticity, and wrinkles) and the stress related to appearance.
