The effects of dried leaf powders and ethanol extract of persimmon, green tea and pine needle on lipid metabolism, lipid peroxidation and antioxidative activity were investigated in rats. Forty-nine male Spargue-Dawley rats weighing 107.8$\pm$1.8g were blocked into seven groups according to body weight. Rats were raised for four weeks with diets containing either 5%(w/w) dried leaf powders of one of three different Korea traditional teas, persimmon(Diospyros kaki Thunb), green tea(Camellia Sinensis O.Ktzc)or pine needle(pinus Koreansis Sieb. Et Zucc), or ethanol from equal amounts of each dried tea powder. Food intake, weight gain, food efficiency ratio, and weights of liver, kidney and epididymal fat were significantly higher in the green-tea-powder group, and significantly lower in the pine-needle-powder and pine-needle-extract groups. Persimmon-leaf powder was found to decrease plasma total lipid, triglyceride and cholesterol concentration by increasing fecal total lipid triglyceride and cholesterol excretions. Liver cholesterol concentration was significantly lower in the green-tea and pine-needle-extract groups. Red-blood-cell superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-px) activities were significantly increased in rats fed green-tea extract. Liver SOD activity was increased in rats fed pine-needle powder or extract, and liver GSH-px activity was increased in rats fed greentea powder. Plasma and liver thiobarbituric acid reactive substance(TBARS) concentration were both decreased in rats fed dried leaf posers or extracts of persimmon or green tea. It is believed that high vitamin E levels in persimmon leaf, and high flavonoid, beta-carotene and vitamin C levels in green tea effectively inhibited lipid peroxidation. In conclusion, persimmon and green tea leaves were effective in lowering lipid levels and inhibiting lipid peroxidation in animal tissue, while pine needles were effective and lowering body weight gain. From these results, persimmon and green tea leaves can be recommended in the treatment and prevention of chronic discorders such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and aging. As ethanol extracts from these teas were also effecitive in lowering tissue lipid levels and inhibiting lipid peroxidation, we recommend the use of discarded tea grounds for this.

A Semi-Incombustible Composite Insulation Board (SICIB) that can be applied to building construction and ships was developed. The SICIBs comprised of pine leaf powder, vermiculite. The incombustibility, semi-incombustibility, and U-factor of the developed SICIBs were measured. The incombustibility of the each SICIB was determined by the proportion of combustible flexible binder and pine leaf powder. SICIB satisfied the incombustibility test without a combustible flexible binder and pine leaf powder. In addition, SICIB with 6% of pine leaf ensured its semi-incombustible performance. A combustible flexible binder or pine leaf powder over 6% failed the fire-resistant performance of SICIB. In addition, SICIBs with incombustible/semi-incombustible finishing and a 200 mm insulating layer (glass wool and sprayed poly urethane foam) met the U-factor of an external wall for buildings described in the Korean building code.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of various leaf powders on chocolate by analyzing quality characteristics, antioxidant activities, and sensory characteristics. Methods: Pine needles, mulberry leaves, ramie leaves, barley leaves, and squash leaves were freeze-dried, powdered, and added to the chocolate. Results: Water contents of all leaf powder-added groups were significantly higher than that of the control (15.78%). The pH values of chocolate with leaf powder were lower than that of the control (6.33) while that of mulberry leaf chocolate (6.56) was higher than that of the control. In color measurement, L-value, a-value, and b-value were highest in pine needle chocolate (30.31, 3.52, and 4.78, respectively). The ${\Delta}E$ value (total color difference compared to white board) was the highest in squash leaf chocolate (69.51) and significantly different from that of the control (67.69). The hardness of leaf powder-added chocolate was lower than that of the control (6.84 N), except for pine needles. In the antioxidant activity analysis, chocolate with pine needles and squash leaves had higher polyphenols, flavonoids, and ABTS radical scavenging antioxidant activity than those of the control. Overall consumer acceptability was the most preferred in the control compared to the other groups. However, chocolate with mulberry and barley leaves also received high scores (5.60 and 5.40, respectively) for overall acceptability. Conclusion: It can be concluded that chocolate with barley leaves is desirable for making functional chocolate due to its high consumer preference and positive effects on improving antioxidant activities.

This study developed rice packaging paper with exterminating performance against rice weevils such as Tenebroides mauritanicus and Sitophilus oryzae. The exterminating performance of packaging paper was given by treatment of garlic extractives and pine-leaf powder, respectively. For the exterminating test, rice weevils were put in petri dish containing non-treated packaging paper and functional packaging paper for twenty days. Right after being put in the petri dish, the rice weevils moved fast toward the area in the non-treated paper escaping from that in the functional paper. The lethality of the rice weevils on the functional paper reached over 50 per cent. The physical properties of the functional packaging paper were rarely changed in spite of treatment of the exterminating agents.

The effect of baking on the physicochemical and sensory properties was investigated using a model system of sponge cakes incorporated with pine leaf powder (PLP) as a value-added food ingredient. PLP was incorporated into cake batter at 5 levels (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8%, w/w) by adding an equivalent amount based on the weight of wheat flour. After appropriate mixing, sponge cakes were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 30 min in an oven. The baked cakes were cooled to room temperature for 1 h prior to all measurements. The pH, moisture content, specific volume, height, volume index, and symmetry index decreased significantly with the increase in PLP content (p<0.05). On the contrary, specific gravity of the batter and baking loss increased (p<0.05). The lightness of the cakes decreased, whereas redness increased significantly with the higher amount of PLP in the formulation (p<0.05). Hardness also increased significantly (p<0.05). Both total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl) radical scavenging activity increased significantly by the addition of PLP (p<0.05). The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of PLP up to 4% did not cause a significant unfavorable effect on the consumer acceptances in all attributes. The sponge cakes with 2-4% PLP would be recommended with respect to the overall acceptance score while taking advantage of the functional properties of PLP without sacrificing the consumer acceptability.
