Antimicrobial activity of persimmon leaf tea methanol extracts on Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus was examined through paper disk diffusion bioassay. K. pneumoniae and S. aureus showed 87.64 and 99.35% growth inhibitions by addition of steamed tea methanol extracts (10 mg/ml), respectively. The number of microorganisms in rice cakes was significantly reduced when leaf tea powder was added during production of rice cakes. Addition of 1% steamed leaf teas to rice cakes decreased the number of microorganisms by over 50%, and over 70% reduction was observed when final 2% (dried weight w/w) steamed leaf tea was added, whereas no significant effect was observed over 2%. These results indicate that different microorganisms were detected from persimmon leaf and rice cake, and persimmon leaf can inhibit normal microbial growth in rice cake.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of use of clothing advertisements in magazines as an information source to clothing involvement. Questionnaires were administered to 131 women living in Sangju City during April of 2000. Data were analyzed by using factor analysis, t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe test. Attitude toward clothing advertisements in magazines was factor analyzed resulting three factors such as quality information & degree of use, fashion & brand information, and communication. Clothing advertisement was not considered as a useful information source and was not understood the message of advertisement clearly. There were significant differences between high involvement group and low involvement group in attitude toward clothing advertisements as information sources. High involvement group considered clothing advertisements as information sources more positively and used advertisements to search information about fashion and product quality. Also, significant differences were shown according to marriage state, age, and education level.

Natural dyeing of Sangju silk for graveclothes with mulberry extract solution was studied. The anthocyanidin dye in the extracted mulberry solution was markedly influenced by pH condition, which resulted in the changed maximum light absorption from a $\lambda$max of 525nm in acidic condition to 380nm in alkaline condition possibly due to the irreversible transformation of anthocyanidin to cyanidin form of the dye. The color fastness properties to both light and washing were good when the fabrics were dyed at $80^{\circ}C$ with the mulberry-extracted solution upto twice extraction.

Grapes(Vitis labruscana B) were fumigated with acetic acid at 20mg/liter to reduce storage decay and packaged with polyethylene film(0.03mm), then stored for 90 days at 2$^{\circ}C$. Modified atmosphere packaging reduced slightly weight loss and soluble solids content during storage. Acetic acid fumigation decreased effectively berry shattering and achieved remarkable control of rotting for storage. Two grape cultivars, 'Campbell Early' and 'Sheridan', fumigated with acetic acid had only 0.7~2.9 berries rot compared with 8.3~27.6 berries rot of cluster for grapes that were not fumigated.

This study tried to investigate the best mixing ratio by reviewing the quality characteristics such as moisture content, chromaticity and texture, and sensory characteristics of Seolgidduk made of different ratios of persimmon extracts. A and b color values appeared to increase and L value (lightness) to decrease according to the increase of persimmon extracts ratio. In the case of texture, hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness increased according to the increase of added amount of dried persimmon extracts. The inside section of Seolgidduk was investigated through scanning electron microphotograph, and the $15\%$ of dried persimmon extracts had the smallest and uniform air cells. Seolgidduk with $15\%$ persimmon extracts showed the highest color, flavor and chewiness scores of 3.85, 3.65, and 3.80 from sensory evaluation, respectively. The moistness displayed significant differences according to the increment of the extract Seolgidduk with $15\%$ persimmon extracts displayed the highest overall acceptability of 3.95, while that of the control 3.10. From the above results, $15\%$ mixing ratio of dried persimmons extracts seems to be the most desirable for making Seolgidduk.

This study does try to proceed on the assumption that complex buildings can vitalize urban life of contemporary society from contemporary complexity and cases of past failure. The scope of investigation on complex buildings in Sangju built in 1990s' and 2000s' on this thesis is that site size is 400 square meter, total area 1500 square meter, and the number of stories on the ground below 5 floor. Method of investigation on twenty one buildings which have been built on new C.B.D. between the Namwon avenue and the Joongang 1th street in Sangju is through field investigation, field photographs, recordings and drawings on these buildings. Investigative contents have been divided and analysized into physical and functional elements in urban and architectural dimension. On the basis of these results, the future planning approach of complex buildings in medium and small cities has been considered into planning principles of convenience of building use and efficiency of site size, physical plans reflected on the traffic and pedestrian movings and the face of buildings, pedestrian resting space-creation like plazas and central gardens, regional character reflected with urban context, and separation and union of approached movings interrelated among the components.

The crystallization of FePt/MgO(100) magnetic thin films of various thicknesses has been studied using synchrotron x-ray scattering, atomic force microscope, and vibrating sample magnetometer. In film with a 500-${\AA}$-thick, ordered (fct) FePt phase was dominantly crystallized into perpendicular (001) grains keeping the magnetically easy c-axis normal to the film plane during annealing. In film with a 812-${\AA}$-thick, however, longitudinal (110) grains keeping the c-axis parallel to the film plane were grown on top of the perpendicular (001) grains. The behavior of the magnetic properties was consistent with the thickness dependence of the crystallization. We attribute the thickness dependence of the crystallization to the substrate effect, which prefers the growth of the c-axis oriented perpendicular grains near the film/substrate interfacial area.

Physiological functionalities of water and ethanol extracts from Basil were determined. The concentration of total phenolic compounds of the water and ethanol extracts were $286.0\;{\mu}g/ml$, $250.0\;{\mu}g/ml$. Antioxidant activities of Basil extracts were determined using 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical cations (ABTS), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl radicals (DPPH), antioxidant protection factor and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances. The total antioxidant activities of Basil extracts using ABTS were 96.8% in the water extracts and 94.7% in the ethanol extract, DPPH were 87.0%, 93.9%, PF were 0.69, 1.16 and TBARS were $0.2{\times}10^{-3}\;{\mu}M,\;0.6{\times}10^{-3}\;{\mu}M$. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activity and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity of Basil were higher in ethanol extracts (99.7%, 100.0%) than those of water extracts (39.9%, 54.7%). Phenolic profiles in Basil extracts were analyzed using HPLC. The result was that among the 6 phenolics, rosemarinic acid was the highest in ethanol extracts.

For the purpose of developing natural antioxidant, the antioxidative activity and antimicrobial of phenolics isolated from Baek-bu-ja (Aconiti koreani Rhizoma) were determined. Optimum extracting condition for phenolics were water extracts. HPLC analysis showed that the four major phenolic metabolites were rosemarinic, protocatechuic, caffeic and chlorogenic acids. The water extracts of Baekbuja did not have antimicrobial activity against H. pylori; however, the ethanol extracts revealed higher antimicrobial activity. Electron donation ability on DPPH of Baekbuja ethanol extract was 20% higher than other ethanol extracts. The 2,2'-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical decolorization (ABTS) and antioxidant protection factor (PF) were determined with extracts from Aconiti koreani Rhizoma. 94% inhibition and 1.14 PF were shown on ABTS and antioxidant protection factor with 60% ethanol extracts. Also, TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) showed $0.19\;{\mu}M$ in the control and $0.07\;{\mu}M$ in the 80% ethanol extracts. The result suggests that Baekbuja extract may be useful as potential sources of anti Helicobacter pylori, antioxidant.
