This study analyzed the recognition rate of QR codes printed by digital transfer textile printing for mobile application. The purpose was to identify conditions that increase recognition rates of QR codes printed on textile, in order to increase utility of QR codes in the textile and fashion industries. The study focused on differences in the color of the QR codes and denier, which is a unit of textile fineness measurement, of the textile on which the QR codes were printed. And the recognition rates of QR codes according to the color and denier were analyzed. According to the result of this study, the colors of QR codes had an effect on the recognition of the codes by mobile applications. Specifically, strong contrast, i.e., bright background and relatively dark module, increased the recognition rate of the QR codes. Digital transfer textile printing tend to change the hue of red and yellow and increase brightness, and change in the printed colors also had an effect on the recognition rate of QR codes. There was a clear difference in the color and recognition rate of the printed QR code according to the denier of the textile, and this suggests denier has an effect on the recognition rate. The findings in this study can provide basic data for future research on QR codes digital printed on textile.

The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the effect of tongue color change due to food ingestion on tongue diagnosis by both Korean Medicine doctors and digital tongue diagnosis system. In order to obtain objective and quantitative data, we used digital camera to collect the data. Prior to our investigation, we conducted a brief survey of 26 Korean Medicine doctors and found out that tongue diagnosis is frequently used and food-stained tongue could be commonly observed in clinics. Depending on their color, viscosity, and amount of intake, various foods caused stains with different colors and thicknesses. Also, duration and amount of food stain on tongue were different from person to person. Since coffee-stained tongue was the most frequently observed one in clinics according to the survey, we used coffee to evaluate the effect of food-stained tongue on tongue diagnosis. Korean Medicine doctors tended to interpret coffee-stained tongue as having yellow tongue coat but their judgement on tongue body color did not differ in spite of the coffee stains. Meanwhile, tongue diagnosis system algorithm tended to judge coffee-stained tongue as having normal but yellowish tongue coat and reddish tongue body. Altogether, food color on tongue can influence tongue diagnosis outcomes. Further research is needed in order to develop more efficient tongue diagnosis algorithm and digital medical service system.

The color stability of current prosthetic composites is unknown, even though the quality of composite materials has been improving. This study examined the intrinsic color stability of various current prosthetic resins (ceramic-polymers) after an accelerated aging process and the extrinsic color stability after immersion in a coffee solution. By comparing the amount of discoloration after aging with that without aging, the effect of the accelerated aging process on external discoloration could be evaluated. Three current prosthetic composites (Artglass, Targis, Sculpture), one light polymerized direct composite (Z100) and one dental porcelain control (Ceramco) were assessed. The color changes (${\Delta}$E) of all the specimens were determined using the CIE $L^{*}a^{*}b^{*}$ color order system with a reflected spectrophotometer. The results were as follows: 1. The prosthetic composite materials subjected to the accelerated aging test showed no significant difference in color changes (p >.05). 2. In the coffee solution immersion test after the aging process, the color changes of the Targis and Artglass groups were not different from that of the Z100 group, which showed the highest color change. 3. In the immersion only test, a significantly high color change was observed in the sculpture glazing group. 4. The aging process influenced on the color changes more in the Targis, Artglass and Z100 groups than in the Sculpture and Ceramco groups.

The effect of chitosan pretreatment on the dyeing of cotton fiber and silk fiber was investigated. However, it has been difficult to evaluate the effect of the chitosan precisely, since the characterization of the molecular weight and effect of the degree of deacetylation were not elucidated for the application. The treatment effect may change diversely since the chitosan solution viscosity differs a lot based on the chitosan molecular weight. In this study, three chitosan specimens, varying in molecular weight, were applied for the fabric pretreatment in order to investigate the effect of chitosan molecular weight. Also, in order to maximize the efficacy of the chitosan, highly deacetylated chitosan specimens, meeting the deacetylation degree of $100\%$, were selected far the application. The air-permeability change according to the chitosan molecular weight change, influence on the mordanting, color change, and wash fastness change were investigated.

The effect of color evokes a certain feeling and affects behavior. Especially, an understanding and applying color are critical because well-designed color substantially contributes to quality and usability. In this study, the effects of three color components(hue, value, and chroma) on apparent warmth were investigated separately and relatively, and then feasibility of applying to the information display was examined. The result showed that the apparent warmth of 10 Hues was a U-shaped function declining from Red to Purple-Blue and increasing from Purple-Blue to Red-Purple with following order of color-circle. Chroma made the character of hues remarkably clear, so warm color becomes warmer and cool color becomes cooler if chroma gets higher. But value has no effect on warmth. These results propose that we can change the apparent warmth by varying chroma in the limitation of color use. And there was a sharp distinction between warm and cool color, Meanwhile, in the reading task of the graphical information, the subjects' judgment distortion overestimating or underestimating the actual degrees was ascertained. This result should be applied to control operator's sensitivity in accordance with the purpose of task and display.

We have studied the effects of dampening papers (Dampened paper, Newspaper, Korean paper, Flower sheet), silica gel (30g, 60g) and temperature ($20^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C$) on color changes of Erythronium japonicum. In the treatment of $20^{\circ}C$, color changes were low in treatments with silica gel rather than in a treatment of dampening papers. In particular, newspaper and Korean paper showed much less changes in colors by the combination treatments with 30g of silica gel. Likewise, in the treatment of $25^{\circ}C$, color changes were low in combination treatments with silica gel rather than in a alone treatment of dampening papers. For the combination treatment with 30g of silica gel, low color changes were shown in the divisions of newspaper and Korean paper, while for the combination treatment with 60g of silica gel, low color changes were shown in the those of Korean paper and dampened paper.

Effects of irradiation on color removal, tyrosinase inhibition, xanthine oxidase inhibition and nitrite scavenging capacity of Lonicera japonica extracts were evaluated. Lonicera japonica extracts were irradiated at 10, 20, and 30 kGy. Hunter color $L^{*}$- and $a^{*}$-values increased but $b^{*}$-values decreased dose-dependently following irradiation. The extracts were potent inhibitors of tyrosinase and xanthine oxidase. Tyrosinase inhibition was higher in the irradiated sample than non-irradiated, and subsequently increased with increasing irradiation doses. The extracts had a higher inhibitory effect against xanthine oxidase, and the effect was not changed by irradiation. Nitrite scavenging capacity was the highest in the extract at pH 1.2, and was not significantly affected by irradiation. These results indicate that gamma irradiation may not influence the biological activities of Lonicera japonica extracts when irradiated up to 30 kGy. Furthermore, color of the extracts can be improved to have improved applicability for the food and cosmetic industries without any adverse change in biological functions.ons.s.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of lens color of sunglasses on stereoacuity by experiment. Methods. We conducted a stereotaxic test using a RANDOM DOT with a polarizing lens at an examination distance of 40 cm in 100 men and women aged 20 to 60 years without any specific ocular disease. Then, seven kinds of PVC color film such as yellow, black, brown, red, purple, blue and green were put on the polarizing lens and the stereoscopic examination was carried out again. Results. When the lens color of the sunglasses is yellow, black, and brown, it affects less stereoscopic effect. However, red, purple, blue, and green have much influence on stereoscopic effect. Especially, the red and purple colors affected the stereoscopic vision. In blue and green, the effect of stereoscopic vision was different according to the people. Conclusions. Depending on the lens color of the sunglasses, stereoscopic vision is affected, which can cause problems in binocular vision. Therefore, when choosing sunglass lens color, many buyers need to pay attention.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of potato lipoxygenase on the change of dough chemical composition including lipid distribution, fatty acid composition, carotenoids content and color value in wheat flour dough. For the study, the potato lipoxygenase was added to wheat flour at a level of $6.5{\times}10\;unit/g$ flour. The addition of potato lipoxygenase to wheat flour dough was found to cause an increase in free lipid content, an effect apparently related to the decrease in linoleic acid content and increase in peroxide value. This phenomena might be due to the enzymatic oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acid. Also, the bleaching effect of lipoxygenase was observed as the decrease in carotenoids content of wheat flour dough. In comparison of color value, it was shown that redness, yellowness and total color difference$({\delta}E)$ were lower by addition of lipoxygenase.

Aspirating or swallowing foreign bodies is a common occurrence. If they are wholly or partly radiopaque, their localization in and progress through the gastrointestinal tract can be more effective. Of the dental origin foreign materials swallowed, the most common things are fragments of anterior maxillary partial denture. But the radiopacity of denture base resins is not sufficient to determine the location of the objects. The purpose of this study was to develop a radiopaque dental acrylic resin, which has clinically detectible radiopacity with minimal change of mechanical properties and color. The radiopacity, color change(CIE 6..E) and microhardness of acrylic resins were determined after mixing barium sulfate or iodide compound. Thermocycling course was conducted to determine the change of characteristic of resins after using for a long time in the mouth. Five or ten percent of barium sulfate to total weight of cured material was mixed with heat curing dental acrylic resin or chemically curing orthodontic resin. In the case of iodide compound, the mixing ratio was two or three percent. After mixing the high radiopaque materials, resin was cured to 20×20×2 mm plate, polished with #600 sand paper and finally polished with Microcloth(Buehler). The specimens were thermocycled in 5 and 55 t distilled water for 2,000 times, and the measurement of radiopacity, color and Vickers hardness was repeated every 500 times thcrmocycling. The radiopacity of specimens on the X -ray films was measured with densitometer(X-rite). The color change was detennined with differential colorimeter(Model TC-6FX, Tokyo Denshoku), and the Vickers hardness number was measured with microhardness tester(Mitsuzawa). The following results were obtained : 1. All the three variables, the kinds of acrylic resins, the mixing or the kinds of high radiopaque materials and thermocycling, had combined effect on the radiopacity of the dental acrylic resins(p<0.0l). 2. The two variables, the mixing or the kinds of high radiopaque materials and thermocycling, influenced on the radiopacity of the dental acrylic resins(p<0.01). But the kinds of acrylic resins did not influence on the color change of mixed dental acrylic resins(p>0.05). 3. Each of the three variables, the kinds of acrylic resins, the mixing or the kinds of high radiopaque materials and thermocycling, influenced on the radiopacity of dental acrylic resins(p<0.0l). 4. The high radiopaque materials used in this study did not yield clinically usable radiopacity, and the color change was great after mixing those materials.
