  • To achieve the "low carbon green growth" vision, the first step is securing core technologies. Therefore, S&T policy direction for green technology development is urgently needed. As of 2008, investment in green technology (GT) development hovered around 10% of the government's total R&D budget. Thus, the Korean government developed a plan to increase that percentage to 15%, by 2013. To develop reasonable investment strategies for green technology development, targeted strategies that reflect technology and market changes by green technology area are needed. However, the overall planning and coordination of national GT development is currently split among, approximately, 10 government ministries. To establish an efficient green technology development system, the so-called "Green Technology R&D Council" should be launched in collaboration with the Presidential Committee on Green Growth and the National Science and Technology Council. Furthermore, to build a solid foundation for commercializing the outcomes of GT development projects and promote GT transfer, the government should undertake two initiatives. First, the government should reinforce GT R&D performance management, by establishing a GT R&D performance management and evaluation system. Second, the government should implement the "customized packaged support for promoting green technology business rights and commercialization" and present "e-marketplace for market-oriented green technologies". Creating a pan-ministerial policy for GT development policy would necessitate restructuring the HR(Human Resources) development system, which is currently separated by technology area. Based upon mid/long-term HR supply and demand forecasts, the government should design differentiated HR development projects, continuously evaluate those projects, and reflect the evaluation results in future policy development. Finally, to create new GT-related industries, the "Green TCS (Testing, Certification, and Standards) System" needs to be implemented. For objective evaluation and diffusion of R&D results by green technology area, a common standardization plan for testing, analysis, and measurement, like the "Green TCS", should be developed and integrated.

  • Free amino acids and polysaccharide content of submerged mycelial culture of Fomitopsis pinicola using $2\%$ citrus peel water extracts(CP), $2\%$ green tea water extracts(GT) and yeast-malt broth(YM) were investigated. Cultivations were conducted at $30^{\circ}C$ and 150 rpm for 10 days. Yields of the mycelium as fresh weight basis in GT-, CP- and YM-broth were $42.3\%,\;34.2\%\;and\;9.89\%$, and their turbidity(OD at 660 nm) of the broth without mycelium were 0.14, 0.16 and 0.22, respectively. Total free amino acid content in the mycelium were 928.19 $mg\%$ in YM, 1060.53 $mg\%$ in CP, 764.83 $mg\%$ in GT, and the major free amino acid was lysine in YM, glutamic acid in CP and GT. Total free exo-amino acid contents were 659.75 $mg\%$ in YM, 954.55 $mg\%$ in CP, 838.69 $mg\%$ in GT, and the major in the all broths was glutamic acid Total amino acid derivatives content of the mycelium were in order of CP>GT>YM, and the major was cystathionine in YM, hydroxy proline in CP and GT. The major among exo-amino derivatives was hydroxy proline in the all broth. Exo-AIS content was in order of CP>GT>YM. Acid soluble polysaccharide content of the mycelium was GT($0.69\%$)>YM($0.39\%$)>CP($0.18\%$). The exo-polysaccharide content was in order of GT($0.87\%$)>CP($0.69\%$)>YM($0.09\%$). Alkali soluble polysaccharide content of the mycelium was in order of CP($5.21\%$)>GT($5.18\%$)>YM($4.56\%$), and exo-polysaccharide was in order of GT($6.79\%$)>YM($3.57\%$)>CP($3.01\%$). The alkali soluble polysaccharide eluted from mycelium cultivated in CP broth was supposed to polysaccharide(about 500,000 daltons) composed of hexose and uronic acid bounded with protein(below 10,000 daltons).

  • We investigated the quality and antioxidant activities of sponge cake prepared containing 1-5% of green tea powder (GT). The water content in the cake increased with an increase in the amount of GT added. Although the hardness and springiness of the rice sponge cake increased, the adhesiveness decreased with increasing the level of GT. The cohesiveness, chewiness, and resilience of the rice sponge cake with GT were similar to those of the control. Chromaticity determination revealed that lightness, redness, and yellowness of the crust decreased with increasing GT content. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents increased proportionally with increasing GT level. Antioxidant activity, measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging as well as reducing power activities, was significantly higher in the rice sponge cake with GT than in the control. Sensory evaluation determined that addition of 1-3% GT to the rice sponge cake maintained the color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance similar to that of the control.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the fermentation characteristics of kimchi treated with different methods of water extracts of powdered green tea(GT). Four different kimchis, the SB-kimchi(control) which was not treatment of the extracts, SG-kimchi prepared with Chinese cabbage(CC) salted in 1% GT containing 10% brine, DG-kimchi prepared with CC dipped in 1% GT for 30 min after salting, MS-kimchi prepared with the salted CC mixed with 1% GT containing seasonings. All kimchis was fermented at 10$^{\circ}C$. The pH of treated-kimchis were maintained higher than those of control products during fermentation, but it showed no big difference between each treated groups. Total microbe of SB-kimchi(6.27-9.37 cfu/mL) was higher than those of GT-treated kimchi(5.17-9.20) during fermentation. The ratio of lactic acid bacteria against total microbe was higher than the treated kimchis. Total polyphenol content of kimchi was 52.75 mg% in DG-kimchi, 47.71 mg% in MS-kimchi, 44.89 mg% in SG-kimchi, 30.70 mg% in SB-kimchi on the 5th days of fermentation. Scores of crispy taste of SG- and DG-kimchi on the 5th days of fermentation was 4.03 and 4.01 points, respectively which was higher than control products. Scores of fishy and hot taste of GT-treated kimchi were lower than those of control products during all fermentation periods.

  • This study investigated the antioxidant effects of complex extracts from pine needles (PN), green tea (GT), and sea buckthorn leaves (SL). Measurement of total polyphenol and flavonoid content, DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH), ABTS+ radical scavenging activity (ABTS), and reducing power (RP), showed that SL extract (SE) had the highest values. The superoxide radical scavenging activity (SSA) and nitrite scavenging activity (NSA) were the highest in the GT extract (GE). In most experiments, the PN extract (PE) showed higher activity in complex extracts than in single extracts. The combination of GT and SL led to a higher activity than that exhibited by GT (DPPH and ABTS at 300 ppm, RP at 100 and 500 ppm) and SL (SSA at 100 ppm and NSA at 300 ppm) alone. These results suggest that the combination of PE, GE, and SE may be a useful functional food material in the food industry.

  • Soymilk cake (SMC) fortified with defatted soy flour was fermented by a novel Bacillus subtilis GT-D in the solid-state fermentation with chlorella, mulberry leaves or green tea as food ingredient. The fermentation of SMC resulted in higher content of tyrosine and higher activities of protease, amylase and fibrinolytic enzymes. Fermented SMC including mucilage indicated six-fold higher content of dietary fiber compared to that of non-fermented SMC. The SMC fermented without additional ingredient allowed the highest spread ratio and width of cookies. Cookies prepared without SMC showed the lowest value of spread ratio and width compared to those of fermented SMC. In addition, these cookies showed the highest hardness value of 8,975 g, and thickness value of 5.97 and slightly higher bright color. Cookies fortified with SMC fermented with chlorella or mulberry leaves showed higher sensory evaluation value. Fortification of SMC fermented without additional ingredient resulted in the highest preference in the sensory evaluation of cookies.
