Peroxyacetic acid mixture Perosan, composed of peroxyacetic acid, hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid, was evaluated for eco-friendly management of tomato bacterial wilt by Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum. Perosan drastically suppressed in vitro growth of R. pseudosolanacearum in liquid cultures in dose- and incubation time-dependent manners. Higher perosan doses (0.1 and 1%) caused lowered pH and phytotoxicity to detached leaves of two tomato cultivars Cupirang and Benekia 220 in aqueous solution. Treatment with 0.01% of Perosan delayed wilting symptom significantly in the detached leaves of two cultivars inoculated with R. pseudosolanacearum ($10^7cfu/ml$). Soil drenching of 5% Perosan solution in pots caused severe tissue collapse of tomato seedlings at the four-week-old stage of two tomato cultivars. Treatment with 1% Perosan by soil-drenching significantly reduced bacterial wilt in the tomato seedlings of two cultivars. These findings suggest that Perosan treatment can be applied to suppress bacterial wilt during tomato production.

슬러지 응집제로서 폴리머, 제올라이트, 고령토, 황토, 키토산 등의 하수슬러지에 대한 응집효과 및 폴리머와 이들 응집제를 혼합한 물질의 응집효과를 검토하였다. 2,500~50,000 mg/L 농도에서 황토가 고령토, 제올라이트보다 하수슬러지에 대한 응집효율이 높았다. 제올라이트, 고령토, 황토 20,000 mg/L 처리의 응집효과는 폴리머 1,000 mg/L 처리의 응집효과보다 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 제올라이트, 고령토, 황토 단독 처리로는 현행 하수슬러지 탈수 시에 사용 중인 폴리머와 같은 응집효과는 기대하기 어려웠다. 키토산 역시 폴리머와 같은 1,000 mg/L 처리에서 응집효과가 현저하게 낮은 것과 고가의 구입비용을 감안하였을 때 키토산 단독처리는 현실적이지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 하수슬러지에 대한 지렁이처리법 적용에 유리한 응집제 조합은 '폴리머 80mg/L +고령토 또는 황토 500 mg/L + 키토산 10 mg/L' 으로 판단되며, 다음으로 '폴리머 80 mg/L + 고령토 또는 황토 500 mg/L' 조합으로 판단된다.

Probiotics are microorganisms that have beneficial effects on the health of the host. The health promoting effect by probiotics influences suppressing harmful bacteria, prevention of constipation, blood cholesterol reduction and regulation of blood pressure. Prebiotics are used to promote the growth or activity of microorganisms. Synbiotics, which are a mixture of probiotics and prebiotics, synergize in the intestines by complementing each other. Synbiotics not only improves the viability of the probiotics while passing through the gastrointestinal tract, maintain intestinal homeostasis, but also regulate balance of harmful and useful bacterial growth. Glycine max Merr (GMM) has been widely used in Asian countries to treat cancer, obesity, oxidative stress and imbalanced immune diseases. In addition, it has been reported that dietary fiber-rich grains promote bowel movements and prevent constipation. In this study, we investigated the viability of LactobacillIus buchneri (L.buchneri) strains, known as lactic acid bacteria under conditions of gastric fluid and intestinal fluid to determine the suitability of L.buchneri as probiotics. The adhesion ability of L.buchneri to caco-2 cells was also confirmed. The present studies showed that GMM extract promoted the growth and activity of L.buchneri strains as prebiotics. Also, this results suggested that the mixture of L.buchneri and GMM extract can helps maintain intestinal health and healthy body as synbiotics and health functional food material.

This study was carried out to investigate and propose a green-wall system with evergreen plants for urban greening of Tongyeong City. To achieve these goals, the requirements and possibilities for wall greening were investigated and evaluated considering the location, topography, and climate of Tongyeong City. Existing walls were analyzed and then a suitable green wall system is proposed. Tongyeong City and its 151 islands covers the central and the southern parts of the Goseong peninsula. Most of the land is covered with hills and mountains; $43.9\%$ of the land area has a slope greater than $15\%$ and most hills and mountains near the urban area have a slope of more than $30\%$. As a result of the topographical properties, concrete retaining walls can often be seen along the streets in urbanized areas. These retaining walls are not only unattractive, but they also create environmental problems, and thus should be replaced with native evergreen plants. Options for replacing the retaining walls include evergreen vine-plants such as Hedaa spp. and Euonymus radicans, but native evergreen shrubs such as Pittosporum tobira, Nandina domestica, Raphiolepis umbellata, Ilex cornuta, flex crenata, Fatsia japonic, and Aucuba japonica may be a more attractive option. Current wall conditions are unsuitable for planting vines, therefore, a reservoir-drainage-type plant box filled with a light artificial substrate is required for greening these concrete retaining walls. These might be irrigated in the dry season and fertilized annually by an appropriate system. These plant boxes could be attached along the entire walls. An experiment investigating effects of substrates and bark-chip mulching on the growth of Hedera spp. showed that the mixture of cerasoil and field soil(v/v, 4:6) was superior to field soil alone and to the mixture of perlite small grain, large grain, and field soil(v/v/v, 2:2:6). Bark-chip mulching tended to increase the growth of Hedera spp..

A reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) protocol was developed using two specific 22-mer primers located in coat protein gene of SPFMV. A 411 bp PCR-product was detected in virus infected plants as well as tissue culture raised sweet potato but not in healthy plants. For optimization of RT-PCR protocol, the optimum crude nucleic acid concentration, annealing temperature, primer concentration and numbers of PCR-cycle for maximum sensitivity and specificity were determined. The optimum condition for RT-PCR was as follows: RT-PCR reaction mixture was one-step mixture, containing 50 pmol of primer, 30 units of reverse transcriptase, 5 units of RNasin, and the crude nucleic acid extracts (200 ng). In RT-PCR, cDNA was synthesized at $42^{\circ}C$ for 45 min before a quick incubation on ice after pre-denaturation at $95^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. The PCR reaction was carried out for 40 cycles at $96^{\circ}C$ for 30 see, $63^{\circ}C$ for 30 sec, $72^{\circ}C$ for 1 min, and finally at $72^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The viral origin of the amplified product was confirmed by sequencing, with the sequence obtained having $95-98\%$ homology with published sequence data for SPFMV. The benefits of this RT-PCR based detection of SPFMV would be simple, rapid and specific.

The consumption of herbal medicine and related products (herbal products) have increased in South Korea. At the same time the quality, safety, and efficacy of herbal products is being raised. Currently, the herbal products are standardized and controlled according to the requirements of the Korean Pharmacopoeia, the National Institute of Health and the Ministry of Public Health and Social Affairs. The validation of herbal products and their medicinal component is important, since many of these herbal products are composed of two or more medicinal plants. However, there are no tools to support the validation process. Interest in deep learning has exploded over the past decade, for herbal medicine using algorithms to achieve herb recognition, symptom related target prediction, and drug repositioning have been reported. In this study, individual images of four herbs (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz, Poria cocos Wolf, Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fischer), actually sold in the market, were achieved. Certain image preprocessing steps such as noise reduction and resize were formatted. After the features are optimized, we applied GoogLeNet_Inception v4 model for herb image recognition. Experimental results show that our method achieved test accuracy of 95%. However, there are two limitations in the current study. Firstly, due to the relatively small data collection (100 images), the training loss is much lower than validation loss which possess overfitting problem. Secondly, herbal products are mostly in a mixture, the applied method cannot be reliable to detect a single herb from a mixture. Thus, further large data collection and improved object detection is needed for better classification.

Human needs energy to maintain metabolisms, and these energy sources were uptake foods or nutritions. The most effective source was known for glucose among the nutrients, furthermore the glucose is an important source of energy for blood cells and control brain maintenences cells. But as food is plentiful and eating habits become more westernized, fast food and irregular meal times by works. Nowadays, diabetes were rapidly increased by malnutriton and obesity. Diabetes was the sixth highest on the list of causes of death in Korea, released by the Statistics Korea in 2015, which is considered a serious social problem for adult diseases. Therefore, this study aims to establish the optimal hot water extraction conditions of mixed herbs extract mixture compounds that are effective in diabetes. The independent factors were extraction temperature (X1: $40-120^{\circ}C$), extraction time (X2: 2-10 hrs.), and the ratio of water to sample (X3: 40-200 mg/mL). Their effects were assessed on dependent variables of the extract properties, which included soluble solid contents, Brix of sample extract, total polyphenols content, total flavonoids content and DPPH Radical scavenging activity. As a result, the content of total polyphenol content was the highest in No.12(6 hrs, $120^{\circ}C$, 67 mg/mL) and the highest total flavonoid contents was found in No.16(6 hrs, $80^{\circ}C$, 40 mg/mL). DPPH Radical scavenging activity showed the highest activity in No.7(8 hrs, $100^{\circ}C$, 100 mg/mL).

Control of food pathogens is critical in food safety field. Norovirus is one of the major causes of gastroenteritis and food poisoning worldwide, however, currently, there is not a vaccine or a specific drug available for its treatment. There are several methods to inactivate norovirus during food processing by chemical and physical treatments, however, the use of natural substance has been suggested as an optional strategy due to their safety and consumer preference. In this study supported by Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in Korea, we identified novel plant-derived substances with significant anti-norovirus activities. The aim of this project was to determine the antiviral activity of a wide range of natural substances, including plant-derived extracts and essential oils, using a norovirus surrogate system, human norovirus replicon-bearing cells, and mouse in vivo experiments. During the activity screening test, we identified novel anti-norovirus substances or oils using plaque assay with MNV-1. Six selected substances were formulated into an optimum mixture and used as an ingredient for salad sauce of which anti-novovirus activity was confirmed(pending for patent and paper submission). The potential application of selected natural substances as a metal surface sanitizer was also tested. Interestingly, the mixture of selected natural compounds showed a significant inhibitory effect against norovirus. These results suggest that these substances may be used as food ingredient with anti-norovirus antivity or components for surface sanitizers to prevent norovirus contamination.
