The plant Korean rosebay are members of the Ericaceae(Heath) family and may contain grayanotoxins, which exert toxic effects by binding to sodium channels in cell membranes. We had experience of 2 cases of Korean rose bay intoxication, who exposed to Rhododendron mucronulatum. Patients were presented to our ED with nausea and vomiting, hypotension, and dizziness or depressed mentation. The patients were performed monitoring and supportive treatment and were fully recovered within 48hours. Korean rose bay intoxication should be considered in patients with clinical evidence of gastrointestinal irritation, cardiac arrhythmias, and/or neurologic signs without identifiable causes, especially in spring or early summer.

Eggs of Korean rose bitterling Rhodeus uyekii were collected and fertilized to observe temperature-related cleavage rates and mitotic intervals (${\tau}_0$). As the water temperature was increased, the slope of first cleavage frequency with elapsed time after fertilization increased, and approximately 30% of fertilized eggs reached first cleavage frequency at every 15 min. At higher temperatures, eggs developed faster and underwent further identical developmental processes. There were strong, negative correlations between ${\tau}_0$ and water temperatures at all temperatures studied (Y = -1.225X + 70.05, $r^2=0.988$, where Y is ${\tau}_0$ and X is temperature).

Rose and chrysanthemum are the most popular flowers in Korean floriculture. Sorting flowers is a labor intensive operation in cultivation of the cut flowers and needed to be mechanized. Machine vision is one of the promising solutions for this purpose. This study was carried out to develop hardware and software of a cut flower sorting system using machine vision and to test its performance. Results of this study were summarized as following; 1. Length of the cut flower measured by the machine vision system showed a good correlation with actual length of the flower at a level of the coefficients of determination (R$^2$) of 0.9948 and 0.9993 for rose and chrysanthemum respectively and average measurement errors of the system were about 2% and 1% of the shortest length of the sample flowers. The experimental result showed that the machine vision system could be used successfully to measure length of the cut flowers. 2. Stem diameter of the cut flowers measured by the machine vision system showed a correlation with actual diameter at the coefficients of determination (R$^2$) of 0.8429 and 0.9380 for rose and chrysanthemum respectively and average measurement errors of the system were about 15% and 7.5% of the shortest diameter of the sample flowers which could be a serious source of error in grading operation. It was recommended that the error rate should be considered to set up grading conditions of each class of the cut flowers. 3. Bud maturity of 20 flowers each judged using the machine vision system showed a coincidence with the judgement by inspectors at ranges of 80%∼85% and 85%∼90% for rose and chrysanthemum respectively. Performance of the machine vision system to judge bud maturity could be improved through setting up more precise criteria to judge the maturity with more samples of the flowers. 4. Quality of flower judged by stem curvature using the machine vision system showed a coincidence with the judgement by inspectors at 90% for good and 85% for bad flowers of both rose and chrysanthemum. The levels of coincidence was considered as that the machine vision system used was an acceptable system to judge the quality of flower by stem curvature.

This research was conducted to investigate the possibilities of usage of rose (Rosa hybrida L. cv. Mary Devor) by examining th antioxidative and antimicrobial activities of extracts with various levels of ethanol concentrates. Proximate composition, dietary fiber, and flavonoids contents were analyzed, and total antioxidant status and yield ratios of extraction of rose were measured. The rose extracts were extracted in different level of ethanol concentrates (0, 75, 85, 95%), and peroxide value, acid value, and TBA value were investigated in different level of concentrates of extracts added and time duration of storage. The results were as follows; derivation period from measuring peroxide value showed that the rose (Petal & Calyces) extract-added group showed longer derivation period than the control group, tocopherol-added, or BHT-added groups, and it proved to be a highly effective antioxidant as a result. It showed the longest derivation period especially when 85% ethanol extract was added with concentration of 0.05%. For the acid values and TBA values of the extract added oil, the rose extract-added group and BHT-added group showed lower values than the control group and tocopherol-added group as th length of time for storage becomes longer. In fact, the rose extracts suggested the possibility to be used as a natural antioxidants as it showed high antioxidative effect similar to BHT. Overall, the rose extracts from each solvent showed high antimicrobial effects against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus than control group. Especially, 85% ethanol extract showed significantly high antimicrobial effect against Escherichia coli.

Catharanthus roseus was extracted with methanol and its Vinblastine contents and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities in each methanol extracts were determined. Vinblastine contents of leaves were much higher than those in other plant parts. The highest DPPH(1,1-diphenyl-2 -picrylhydrazy) radical scavenging activities in plnat parts showed in leaves of Stardust Orchid and Cooler Rose and the value was $RC_{50}=17\;and\;18\;{\mu}g/ml$ respectively. Leaves of Cooler Rose and Coller Strawberry showed strong antimicrobial activities. Particularly, Cooler Rose showed strong antimicrobial activites except to Penicillium oxalicum.

Rose flower is widely used in the preparation of tea and contains a large variety of phytochemicals, including phenolics such as catechin, quercetin, and rutin. The effects of aging on rose (Rosa hybrida L.) flower extracts (RFE) were examined under conditions of varying temperature and relative humidity. The total phenolic content, antioxidative activity, and catechin levels were measured to evaluate the effects of temperature and relative humidity on the aging process. Performing the aging process at $30^{\circ}C$ under 60% or 90% relative humidity for 24 h significantly increased the total phenolic content and the antioxidant activities of RFE (p<0.05). Additionally, an aging process performed at $30^{\circ}C$ and 60% relative humidity for 24 h maximized the extraction rate of phenolics such as catechin and consequently led to increased antioxidative activity of RFE. In summary, this study indicates that the extraction rate of physiologically active phenolic compounds in rose flower can be increased by performing an aging process under optimized temperature and relative humidity conditions.

Protective clothing developed for rose flower farmers has been evaluated to improve the working conditions. The requirements of rose farmers were first identified to design protective clothing for farmers working with thorny plants. A fit test was conducted to assess the thermal comfort and protective function against thorn pricking to compare and evaluate the usability of developed experimental clothing with existing working clothes. Based on the survey results of rose farmers' requirements, protective clothing was designed in the form of an apron (which was the most preferred after gloves) with a pattern designed for the production of experimental clothing. For the developed protective clothing, the strap and buckle closure method was selected to open the back of the body as much as possible; in addition, sleeves were made in the attachable form of a half-sleeve to protect the arms from the thorns. The fit test of the developed protective clothing and existing working clothes revealed the temperature and humidity inside the developed protective clothing to be significantly different in the back compared to existing work clothes. In addition to thermal sensations, the subjective humidity sensations were statistically significant different in the developed protective clothing compared to existing work clothes. The subjective protective function for thorn pricking was also found to be satisfactory.
