Coated filters were developed to replace the glass impinger methods that use reagent solutions. The purpose of this study was to simultaneously measure nitrogen dioxide ($NO_2$) and respirable suspended particles (RSP) by a filtration method with a cyclone connected to a pump. A first pre-filter for RSP and second filter for $NO_2$, which was soaked in a TEA (Triethanolamine) solution, were loaded into a filter cassette with a pump flow rate of 1.7 l/m. After sampling, the TEA soaked filter was removed from the cassette, placed in a large test tube (10 ml), mixed, and allowed time to develop. The absorbance (abs) of the diazo compound of the $NO_2$ and N-(1-Napthylethylenediamine dihydrochloride) in the color reagent was measured at 545 nm on a spectrophotometer. The collection efficiency(%) of $NO_2$ by each 3 filter soaked in TEA solution and used in the cyclone with a pump flow rate 1.7 l/m was $89{\pm}3%$ and the correlation coefficient between the true $NO_2$ concentration and that determined by the TEA soaked filters was 0.993(p<0.001).

This studies have been carried out to develop Korean traditional tea from the effects of Cornus officinalis and Lycium chinense and to study the developed tea on microbiological (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and metaboilsm of experimental animals (Spraque-Duwely male rats 200g). On the microbiological study the yeast growth is increased with the increase of added Cornus officinalis or Lycium chinense and Lycium chinense increased the yeast growth more than Cornus officinalis, especially the synergistic effects are recognized on mixed extract of Lycium chinense and Cornus officinalis. The effects of Cornus officinalis, Lycium chinense or the mixed extract of both extract on liver damage caused by carbon tetrachloride were investigated in the case of animal test. The activities of GOT and GPT in serum are increased on control group compared to normal group but Lycium chinense group and group (which is administrated with the mixed extract of both ectract) decreased apparently the activities of GOT and GPT. The contents of Creatinine, BUN and Glucose in serum has no difference between normal and control group when the Cornus officinalis, Lycium chinense or mixed extract of both extracts were injected. Among them Lycium chinense group showed more normal value compared to Cornus officinalis and the mixture of both extract. The protective effect on rat liver damage caused by carbon tetrachloride is in order of Lycium chinense. The synergistic effects of the mixed extract on liver damage are proved to be better than Lycium chinense or Cornus officinalis singly.

The present study was conducted to investigate the translocation of polyphenols, especially catechin derivatives, from mushroom medium mixed with green tea residues into fruiting body of Pleurotus eryngii. Pleurotus eryngii was grown on the media incorporated by mixing or surface-treated with dry materials including leaf petioles and young stems or leaves of green tea. The dry materials treated in medium did not affect plant height and fresh weight of Pleurotus eryngii body. From the samples of Pleurotus eryngii, the eight main catechin derivatives (-)-gallocatechin(GC), (+)-catechin (C), (-)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (-)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), and (-)-catechin gallate (EGCG), and caffeine were analyzed quantitatively by HPLC. The results showed that EGC in Pleurotus eryngii was 45% more detected, when incorporated with the dry materials, than untreated control. Especially, content of EGCG was increased in surface-treated Pleurotus eryngii up to 3.2 ppm, while it was not detected or reduced in control and other treatments. Caffeine content was greatly increased regardless of treatment method, compared with control (0.1ppm), showing 44 fold-amount in Pleurotus eryngii at early growth stage when incorporated with the dry materials into medium. The results indicates that functional catechin derivatives of green tea would be partly translocated into Pleurotus eryngii throught incorporation and surface treatment with residues of green tea plants.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of addition methods of green tea on the fermentation characteristics of kimchi. Kimchis were prepared to 3 methods such as Chinese cabbage soaked in brine containing 1％ of green tea extracts(Ⅰ), salted the cabbage soaked in water containing 1％ of green tea extracts(II), salted the cabbage mixed with seasonings containing 1％ of green tea extracts(Ⅲ), and fermented at l0$\^{C}$. pH of Ⅰ∼Ⅲ kimchis were higher than that of control kimchi during fermentation and its acidity showed the same tendency. Total microbe(5.40∼8.38 log cfu/mL) and the number of lactic acid bacteria(4.99∼8.07 log cfu/mL) in Ⅰ∼Ⅲ kimchis were lower than those of control kimchi(6.16∼9.29 and 4.59∼8.42 log cfu/mL). Lightness of kimchi tissue showed the order of Ⅰ＜II＜control＜Ⅲ. Sour taste and fishy taste of Ⅰ∼Ⅲ kimchis were lower than that of control kimchi. Overall quality was best in II estimated by sensory evaluation and fermentation characteristics.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of soil selenium (Se) supplementation level on Se contents of green tea and milk vetch. Four different concentrations of sodium selenite ($Na_2SeO_3$) solutions (0.0, 3.3, 33.0 and 165.0${\mu}g/mL$) were prepared and one liter of each solution was well mixed with 10 kg of compost (cowpea soil) to give four different levels of Se-containing soil: $T_1$, 0; $T_2$, 33; $T_3$, 330; $T_4$, and 1,650${\mu}g$/100 g soil. Green tea plants and milk vetch were individually cultivated in those soils for 60 days. Se contents of freeze-dried green tea leaves were 6.87, 10.40, 12.04, and 20.19 ${\mu}g/g$, respectively; all of which were significantly different (p<0.05) from the others except for $T_2$ and $T_3$. The results showed that Se-contents of green tea leaves were increased 1.5$\sim$2.9 times as the Se level in the soil increased. Regression equation between Se contents in green tea (Y) and soil Se supplementation level (X) was: Y=0.007X＋8.857. However, Se contents in the milk vetch were increased significantly (p<0.05) more with the same treatments $T_3$ (74 ${\mu}g/g$) and $T_4$ (187$\mu$g/g) in comparison to those at $T_1$ (5.0 ${\mu}g/g$) and $T_2$ (12.0$\mu$g/g). The increases ranged from approximately between 2.4 to 37.4 times that of the control group. Regression equation between Se contents in milk vetch (Y) and soil Se supplementation level (X) was: Y=0.1063X＋15.989. The large difference of Se contents between green tea leaves and milk vetch would be attributed by the difference of protein contents between the 30% or higher protein-content of legumes and 15$\sim$20% protein of shrubs. The present study clearly indicates that green tea leaves and milk vetch can be enriched in selenium by supplementing the soil with Se. Therefore, Se-enriched green tea or milk vetch powder could be utilized as functional foods in Se-fortified green tea drinks or salads, or as food additives to enhance the daily intake of Se.

The corrosion of the embedded steel rebars and the consequent deterioration of the reinforced concrete structure has become a challenging concern to the construction industries for the fiscal deficit. However, corrosion inhibitors are potential and being widely used for corrosion mitigation to solve such problems. This study has been focused on the mixed type of corrosion inhibitor where one component of the corrosion inhibitor is organic and another one is inorganic material. 0.1 (M) triethanolamine (TEA) and 0.01 (M) sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) have been mixed in distilled water to produce the mixed inhibitor. Studies of the steel rebar corrosion in chloride contaminated (3.5 wt.% NaCl) concrete pore (CCCP) solution has been conducted using different concentrations of corrosion inhibitor. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) method is involved to understand the corrosion behaviour of the steel rebars at different exposure durations.

Purpose: It has been reported that the diversity and abundance of microbes in the vagina decrease due to the use of antimicrobial agents, and the high recurrence rate of female vaginitis due to this suggests that a new treatment is needed. Methods: In the experiment, we detected that 10% potassium sorbate solution, 1% eucalyptus oil solution, 1% tea tree oil solution, 400 µL/10 mL grapefruit seed extract solution, 100% lactic acid, 10% acetic acid solution, and 10% lactic acid solution were prepared and used. After adjusting the pH to 4, 5, and 6 with lactic acid and acetic acid in the mixed culture medium, each bacterium was inoculated into the medium and incubated for 72 h at 35℃. Incubate and 0 h each. 24 h. 48 h. The number of bacteria was measured after 72 h. Results: In the mixed culture test between lactic acid bacteria and pathogenic microorganisms, lactic acid bacteria showed good results at pH 5-5.5. Potassium sorbate, which has varying antibacterial activity based on the pH, killed pathogenic bacteria and allowed lactic acid bacteria to survive at pH 5.5. Conclusion: The formulation ratio obtained through this study could be used for the development of a feminine cleanser that can be used as a substitute for antibacterial agents. Further, the findings of this study may be able to solve the problem of antimicrobial resistance in the future.

Nickel powders were synthesized by the hydrazine reduction of nickel chloride solution containing ammonia in DEA solutions. The size distribution of nickel powders were investigated as a function of ammonia concentration, hydrazine concentration and the mixed composition ratio of diethanolammine (DEA) and triethanolammine (TEA). Nickel powders with the size in submicron range were obtained at $185^{\circ}C$ for 45 minutes by hydrazine reduction of nickel chloride solution in DEA solutions. The hydrazine concentrations showed significant effects on the particle size and shape distribution of nickel powders under $NH_3/Ni^{2+}$ molar ratio of 2.0 condition. As the mixed volume ratio of TEA and DEA increased, nickel powders with relatively larger particle size and low agglomeration were obtained. Nickel powders with particle size in the ranged from 0.4 to $0.9\;{\mu}m$ were obtained at the 50 $vol.%$ of TEA.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of green tea catechin on microsomal mixed function oxidase(MFO) system of kidney and brain in streptozotocin(STZ) induced diabetic rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 140$\pm$10g were randomly assigned to one control and three STZ-diabetic groups. Diabetic groups wer classified to DM-0C(catechin 0%/kg diet), DM-0.5C (catechin 0.5%/kg diet), and DM-1.0C(catechin 1%/kg diet) according to the level of catechin supplementation. Diabetes were experimentally induced by intravenous administration of 55mg/kg body weight of STZ in citrate buffer(pH 4.3) after 4 weeks feeding of three experimental diets. Animals were sacrificed at the sixth day of diabetic state. The contents of cytochrome P450 in kidney were increased by 77, 42, 49% in DM-0C, DM-0.5C and DM-1.0C groups, respectively, than normal group. The contents of cytochrome P450 in brain were increased by 43% in DM-0C group than normal group, but those of DM-0.5C and DM-1.0C groups were similar to that of normal group. The contents of cytochrome b5 in kidney were increased by 78, 38, 49% in DM-0C, DM-0.5C and DM-1.0C groups, respectively, than normal group. Meanwhile, the contents of cytochrome b5 in brain were not significantly different among all groups. The activities of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase in kidney of DM-group were increased by 27% than normal group, but those of DM-0.5C and DM-1.0C groups were 13 and 15% lower than that of DM-0C group. The activities in brain were also increased by 31% in DM-0C group, but those of DM-0.5C and DM-1.0C groups were similar to than of normal group. Levels of TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) in kidney were increased by 147, 60 and 59% in DM-0C, DM-0.5C, and DM-1.0C groups, respectively, compared with normal group, but those of DM-0.5C and DM-1.0C groups were 36, 35% lower than that of DM-0C group. Meanwhile, the levels of TBARS in brain were not significantly different among four groups. These results indicate that dietary catechins in green tea play a powerful antioxidant role in reducing the lipid peroxidation enhanced by activation of MFO system in STZ-induced diabetes.
