This study conducted an experiment to develop new raw ingredients for natural cosmetics by evaluating the efficacy of cosmetic products containing the extracts of Pleurotus eringii mushrooms grown without agricultural chemicals. To this end, purchased were Pleurotus eringii mushrooms grown without agricultural chemicals in South Gyeongsang province, South Korea in 2016; extraction was conductedwith 80% EeOH at room temperature after dry ing them. The study identified the excellent efficacy of the extracts after evaluating the antioxidant activity using the DPPH assay and ROS assay. According to the evaluation of he categories of moisture, oil, pH and pigment after the application of a cream-type facial mask pack containing 5% of the extracts, there were significant differences in the categories of moisture and oil on the T-zone area, and no statistically significant differences in the categories of oil change on the U-zone, pH and pigment. However as the extracts of Pleurotus eringii mushrooms had excellent efficacy in all categories compared to the control group, the efficacy of the extracts as a cosmetic raw ingredient could be identified. It is expected that this study may further contribute to developing more advanced raw ingredients, given the extract and cultivation conditions by concentration.

화학비료를 이용할 수 없는 유기농업에서의 양분관리를 위해서 녹비, 퇴비, 유박 등을 주 원료로 하는 유기질비료 등 다양한 유기물이 농경지에 투입되고 있다. 그러나 다양한 성분 및 탄소/질소비로 이루어진 유기물은 토양 중에서 분해되는 속도가 다르고, 토양수분함량, 통기성, 온도 등과 같은 토양조건에 따라서도 분해속도가 크게 차이가 난다. 본 실험에서는 유기농업에서 시비원으로 자주 이용하는 퇴비, 유박비료, 녹비조건의 알팔파 등을 이용하여 무기화율 및 양분이용률을 화학비료와 비교하였다. 농경지 투입시 유기물은 질소양분양(21kg N/10a)을 동일하게 투입하였으며 화학비료는 기비(전체량의 1/3)만을 투입하였는데 알팔파, 유박비료의 경우 노지조건에서 토양처리 후 1달 내에 가장 높은 무기화율을 보였으며 수분조건이 제한된 무기화통내에서의 무기화도 2개월 내에 대부분 이루어지는 것으로 나타났다. 수딘그라스를 2개월 재배한 결과 화학비료 질소 양분이용율은 70%, 탄질비가 낮은 유박 및 알팔파는 40%내외, 탄질비가 높고 분해가 어려운 가축분 왕겨퇴비는 10%에 불과했다. 즉 화학비료 대비 유기물 양분(질소)의 비효화 율은 알팔파는 60%, 유박비료는 54%, 퇴비는 14% 였다. 또한 화학비료(100%) 대비 인산 이용률(유박: 296%, 알팔파: 660%, 퇴비: 36%로, 인산의 이용율이 높은 것은 유기물로 투입된 인산의 량이 화학비료보다 낮아 상대적으로 유기물질에 의한 작물의 인산이용율이 높고, 화학비료는 토양중 고정화가 작물생육 초기에 일어나는데 비하여 유기물질은 서서히 분해되면서 작물에 흡수되어 인산이용율이 높은 것으로 추정된다. 수단그라스 1차수확 후 포장침수로 인한 생육불량으로 전 생육 과정을 통한 양분흡수율은 측정할 수 없었다.

We examined the effects of soaking, saturation, and aging conditions of raw cowpea seeds, on the yield and growth responses of cowpea sprouts. The absorption caused rapid growth for the first two hours of soaking, then the growth slowed. The longer the soaking period (varied from 1 to 6 hours), the lower the germinability, yield ratio, and lateral root output became. A five-day saturation (moist $96{\pm}1%$, $20^{\circ}C$) treatment led to higher germinability, yield ratio, and lateral root output than no treatment and one- or three-day saturation treatment. High-temperature aging treatment led to lower germinability and yield ratio compared to no such treatment. Taking these findings into account, the optimal treatment conditions of raw cowpea seeds are a five-day saturation (moist $96{\pm}1%$, $20^{\circ}C$) treatment followed by cleaning and growing.

Effects of blanching and salting for the pretreatment during frozen storage condition were investigated and optimized the salting condition on the activities of peroxidase and lipoxygenase, the stability of vitamin C and color, moisture content and hardness in immatured soybean. Before frozen storage, pretreatment processing is necessary to extend the shelf-life of vegetables. Salting condition of 2% for 180min treatment led to maximum inactivation of both lipoxygenase and peroxidase while blanching can more inactivate for lipoxygenase. Salting at 2% for 180min resulted in the highest amount of vitamin C remaining in the immatured soybeans after 6 months storage. The color of the immatured soybeans were severely changed after 6 months storage, while the color of salted soybeans at 3% and 180min treatment was similar to fresh products. Moisture content and hardness were reduced with addition of salt.

For a large-scale semiconductor manufacturing clean room, the energy consumed in an outdoor air conditioning system to heat, humidify, cool and dehumidify incoming outdoor air is very large. In particular, the energy requirement to humidify outdoor air in the winter season is generally known to be high. Recently, in order to overcome the high energy consumption nature of a steam generator in a conventional steam humidification type outdoor air conditioning system, an air washer is often introduced instead of the steam generator in the outdoor air conditioning system, which can be called a water spray humidification type outdoor air conditioning system. Therefore, the assessment and comparison of the annual energy consumed in the steam humidification type and the water spray humidification type outdoor air conditioning systems deserves to be examined in order to reduce the outdoor air conditioning load of a clean room. In the present study, a numerical analysis was conducted to obtain the annual electric power consumption of the two outdoor air conditioning systems. It was shown from the comparison of the numerical results that the water spray humidification type outdoor air conditioning system can reduce about 30% of annual electric power consumption of the steam humidification type outdoor air conditioning system.

This study aimed to determine the effect of organic matter content and water condition in soil on yield and sugar content of two varieties of Helianthus tuberosus. The plants were grown with high and low organic soil either under irrigation or no irrigation. In result, the yield of Helianthus tuberosus was higher about 7kg in soil with high organic matter than in soil with low organic matter, while it was higher about 11kg under the irrigation than under no irrigation. The yield of white variety was higher about 9kg than that of purple variety. Under the irrigation, a 12kg and 9kg of higher yields were observed in the soil with high and low organic matter content, respectively, than under no irrigation.

To investigate the transformation characteristics of nitrogen and carbon from cow manure compost amended in soil under different moisture conditions, dynamics of nitrogen and carbon were determined periodically for 15 weeks of aerobic incubation at room temperature during July${\sim}$November, 1996. Cow manure compost matured with mixing saw dust was amended with the 4 ratios (0, 2, 4, 6%(wt/wt)) in Ap horizon soil, which collected from green house in Yesan, Chungnam. Moisture was controlled with 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 of mass water conte nt (${\theta}$m) to air dried soil, and water loss was compensated at every sampling. During incubation, soil pH was decreased continuously, that was caused by hydrogen generated from nitrification of ammonium nitrogen. And pH became higher with inclining cow manure compost amendment and water treatment, that meaned the increase of mineralization of organic-N to $NH_4\;^+-N$. Total nitrogen was reduced with increasing water content, but total carbon showed the contrast tendency with that of nitrogen. Therefore, C/N ratio slightly decreased in the low water condition (${\theta}$m 0.2) during incubation, but increased continuously in high water condition over ${\theta}$m 0.4. As a result, it was assumed that soil fertility is able to be reduced in the high water content over available water content. Nitrate transformation rate increased lasting in the low water content less than ${\theta}$m 0.3. Itdropped significantly in the first $2{\sim}3$ weeks of incubation over ${\theta}$m 0.4. In particular, nitrate was not detected in ${\theta}$m 0.5 of water content after the first $2{\sim}3$ weeks. In contrast, ammonium transformation was inclined with increasing water treatment. Nitrogen mineralization rate, which calculated with percentage ratio of (the sum of ex.$NH_4\;^+-N$ and $NO_3\;^--N$)/total nitrogen, was continuously increased in the low water content of ${\theta}$m 0.2 and 0.3. But it saw the different patterns in high water content over ${\theta}$m 0.4 that was drastically declined in the initial stage and then gradually inclined . From the above results, nitrogen transformation patterns differentiated decisively in water content between ${\theta}$m 0.3 and 0.4 in soil. Thus, it is very important for the maintain of suitable soil water content to enhance fertility of soil amended with manure compost. However, excess treatment of manure compost might enhance the possibility of contamination of small watershed and ground water around agricultural area.

Depending on compost treatment the changes of radish morphology and soil physico-chemical properties were investigated in the sandy loam soil, pH of the soil was decreased and the contents of organic matter, total nitrogen, phosphate and cation exchange capacity was increased with increase of compost. Root weight and length were the lowest, but deficit rate was the highest(79.3%) in the treatment of 120Mg/ha of compost. The contents of chlorophyll and sugars were increased with increasing the amount of compost treatment, but the inorganics were scarcely changed. The nitrate content in radish root ranged from 10 to 120mg/kg in various treatments.
