In this study, we examined the influence of the pigment characteristic and dyeing condition on dyeing properties and functionality by using Perilla Frutescens L. Britt extracts, in which ethanol, distilled water and NaOH solution were used as 3 different solvents. Changes in dyeing conditions include variations in dye concentration, dyeing temperature, time and pH on dye uptake, and K/S values were compared according to these changes. Additionally, color changes were observed according to the use and types of mordant. Ultraviolet-visible spectrum was utilized to investigate the pigment characteristic, and as a result, chlorophyll was identified in ethanol extract, whereas tannin was identified both in distilled water extract and NaOH solution extract. By using FT-IR analysis, these tannins in distilled-water-extract and NaOH solution extract were verified to be hydrolyzable tannin. When dyeing silk, dye uptake increased as dye concentration, dyeing temperature and time increased, while it decreased as pH of the extract increased. Fabrics dyed without a mordant produced Y-series colors, and fabrics dyed with mordants showed various colors depending on the mordant types. Even though color fastness to washing and light was unsatisfactory, fastness to rubbing and perspiration showed relatively high grade. Moreover, deodorant ability of dyed fabric improved.

The aim of this study was to determine the optimal cooking conditions for astringent persimmon concentrates. With increasing time of concentration, the moisture contents and L-, a- and b-values all decreased, whereas the brix level and viscosity increased. The crude protein, fiber and ash increased and the vitamin C decreased by concentrating. The pH was the lowest at 23 hrs of boiling concentration. With longer boiling concentration time, the fructose, glucose, and sucrose levels increased but the maltose level decreased. The DPPH radical scavenging effects of astringent persimmon concentrates were more than 92%. The total phenolics, flavanol tannin, leucoanthocyanin, and chlorogenic acid levels increased with longer boiling concentration time. In the sensory evaluation of the astringent persimmon concentrates, overall acceptability was the best at the 23-hr boiling concentration. From the above results, the 23-hr boiling, astringent persimmon concentrates could be useful for cooking in terms of obtaining the high amounts of phenolic compounds as functional compounds and overall acceptability.

Research to dyeing properties of Ulmi cortex extract, silk and cotton fabrics were dyed and mordanted. Dyes were extracted from distilled water according to different pH values. The dyeability of Ulmi cortex extract were evaluated by conditions of dyeing temperature, dyeing time, dyeing pH, mordanting temperature, mordanting time, mordanting concentration and color fastness, etc. IR spectrum possessed absorption band of -OH at $3400cm^{-1},\;C-H\;at\; 2940cm^{ -1},\;aromatic\;C=C\;at\;1628cm^{-1},\;1518cm^{-1},\;C-O\;at\; 1107cm^{ -1},\;1043cm^{-1}$. And the $\labmda$max of extract appeared at 220nm and 280nm, so the substance of Ulmi cortex extract were catechin and tannin. Surface color of dyed fabrics were reddish yellow~yellow~greenish yellow. From the color fastness test, the fabrics dyed with PH 7 extract were excellent in irradiation and washing. Mordanting improved the color fastness and K/S value of dyed fabrics.

The effects of chitosans with two different molecular weights (150 and 37 kDa) on the clarification of persimmon vinegar were investigated. The coagulated solids increased with increasing chitosan concentrations. Chitosan treatment had no effect on pH and acidity. Turbidity, browning, contents of tannin and soluble solids decreased with increasing chitosan concentrations. An increase in chitosan concentration resulted in an increase in color L* value and a decrease in a* and b* values. Reduction in turbidity and tannin contents somewhat differed depending on the molecular weights of chitosan. In sensory evaluation, chitosan treatment did not affect color and flavor over all concentrations tested. However, astringent taste was noticeably strong by treatment with 500mg/L chitosan, resulting in low overall acceptability. Therefore, the most effective clarification of persimmon vinegar was achieved by treatment with 400mg/L chitosan, irrespective of molecular weight.

In this study, ten different bio-adsorbents were prepared by immobilization of vegetable tannins such as mimosa(Catechol Tannin) and chestnut(Pyrogallol Tannin) on the collagen matrix which was derived from during leather manufacturing processing. Removal efficiency of Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cr(III) by each bio-adsorbent in synthetic wastewater was evaluated by a laboratory-scale batch reactor at different reaction conditions. When mimosa was used as a vegetable tannin, the penetration efficiency of mimosa into the inner bundle of fiber depended on the dose of the naphthalene condensated penetrant; 3% ${\geq}$ 1.5% > 0%. For all bio-adsorbents, removal of heavy metal ions was not observed below pH 3.0 but was rapidly increased between pH 3.0 and 6.0, showing near complete removal of all heavy metal ions except Zn(II) above pH 6.0. Removal of Cr(III) was quite similar for all bio-adsorbents while removal of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) was higher by bio-adsorbents immobilized with chestnut than that by mimosa. Adsorption of Pb(II) and Cu(II) by S10 bio-adsorbent was little affected by the presence of monovalent and divalent electrolytes as well as variation of 1000 times ionic concentration with $NaNO_3$.

This study investigated the chelation of a sorghum bran extract using iron (Fe) as a new natural colorant. The composition of the sorghum bran extract and chelation conditions were both examined. The thermal properties of the chelated colorants were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and a thermal analyzer system(TGA). The sorghum bran extract solution showed a maximum absorbance at 281 nm based on UV/Vis spectrophotometry. According to the chelation pH conditions, pH 7.5 was the most effective. The chelation of the sorghum bran extract increased rapidly when increasing the iron concentration up to 2 mg/L, with no further chelation at a higher concentration. The particle size distribution curve for the chelated tannin revealed four groups: $4.5{\sim}17{\mu}m$, $20{\sim}42{\mu}m$, $45{\sim}80{\mu}m$, and $83{\sim}160{\mu}m$. In a DSC analysis, endothermic peaks attributed to the pyrolysis of the extract and chelated tannin were found at $318^{\circ}C$ and $415^{\circ}C$, respectively. In a TGA analysis, the chelation was shown to increase the final degradation temperature from $253^{\circ}C$ to $382^{\circ}C$, confirming that the chelation improved the thermal stability.

A feeding trial was conducted to study the effect of tannin rich Pakar (Ficus infectoria) leaves on microbial profile, rumen fermentation and nutrient utilization in goats. Eight goats divided in two groups were fed pakar leaves (experimental group) and green oats (control group) as sole roughage source along with a fixed quantity of concentrate mixture for a period of 3 months. Two metabolic trials of six days duration were conducted after 30 and 90 days of experimental feeding. The dry matter intake was significantly higher (p<0.05) and digestibility's of DM, OM, CP, EE, NDF and ADF were reduced in experimental as compared with the control group. The TDN intake was similar (236.52 vs. 240.39 g/d) in both the groups. All the animals were in positive nitrogen balance. The concentration of ammonia nitrogen, TVFA, lactic acid and activities of xylanase and protease were reduced in pakar leaves fed goats. The rumen microbial profile as obtained by MPN technique showed no change in total bacterial population but total fungi and cellulolytic bacteria were reduced (p<0.05), whereas, tannin degrading/tolerant bacteria increased with the feeding of pakar leaves. Real time PCR data revealed a decrease in Ruminococcus flavefaciens, an increase in methanogens and no change in the Fibrobacter succinogenes population by feeding of pakar leaves.

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of the pigment characteristic and changes in dying conditions on the dying properties by extracting Chelidonium majus var. asiaticum using distilled water and ethanol as solvents. Changes in dying conditions include variations in dye concentrations, dyeing temperatures and time on dye uptake, and K/S Value was compared according to these changes. Additionally, color changes were observed through mordant. Ultraviolet-visible spectrum was used to investigate the pigment characteristic, and as a result, tannin was identified in distilled-water-extract, whereas berberine and chlorophyll were identified in ethanol-extract. In FT-IR analysis, tannin in distilled-water-extract was verified as hydrolyzable tannin. For ethanol extract, chlorophyll was verified through absorption band of C-H, which is aliphatic spectrum around $2920cm^{-1}$ and $2850cm^{-1}$. From GC/MS analysis, oil components as well as terpine compounds were detected in ethanol-extract, and this, in turn, brings expectation regarding functionality. When dying in silk, dye uptake increased as concentration of the extract increased, and the optimum dyeing temperature and time were $40^{\circ}C$ and 60 minutes respectively. Dyed fabrics' colors were all basically Y-series colors, and adjustment in brightness and revelation of khaki color were also available depending on the type of the mordant. Color fastness, except for washing fastness, was good in silk dyed with distilled-water-extract. Thus, it can be concluded that by selecting the right extracting method and by doing proper dyeing and mordant according to the needs, these dyed fabrics can be used as eco-friendly, functional clothing material.

Astringency in persimmons was removed by immersing in 0.5% acetic acid or various concentrations(0.1%, 0.5%, and 1.0%) of chitosan solutions for 4 days at 18$^{\circ}C$. During 5-days immersion, soluble tannin contents in persimmons decreased more rapidly while pH, 。Brix, and hardness decreased more slowly with increasing chitosan concentration. No noticeable color changes and decay were observed during this period. Sensory analyses 4 days after immersion indicated that persimmons immersed in 1.0% chitosan solution showed the best results for firmness and overall acceptability.

This experiment was carried out to select the optimum thickness of polyethylene film for the nonastringency of astringent persimmon fruits during modified atmosphere(MA) storage of Cheongdo Bansi kept at 0$^{\circ}C$. The experimental plots were divided into 5 plots by film thickness(0.08, 0.10, 0.12, 0.14 and 0.16mm). The experimental items were the changes in concentration of CO2 and O2 in film brig, soluble tannin contents, loss of weight firmness and external appearance of fruits. The nonastringency of persimmon fruits can be achieved all groups excepting the 0.08mm film during MA storage. The sweet persimmon in film bag of 0.10 and 0.12mm maintained a high quality and firmness, but following the deastringency the fruits in 0.14 and 0.16mm developed off-color. The increasing of carbon dioxide level and decreasing of oxygen level in film bag created anaerobic condition at earth stage, and then it kept a constant level during stooge. According to film thickness the obvious difference in the change of soluble tannin contents external appearance and firmness were observed. It could be concluded that the optimum thickness of film for the desirable nonastringency on Cheongdo Bansi was 0.10mm.
