This study examined the effects of pre-soaking solvents and repeated steaming-drying (SD) cycles on the antioxidant activity and active compound content of Rehmanniae Radix Preparata(RRP), the processed root of Rehmannia glutinosa Libosch. SD treatments were conducted for 1 to 9 cycles using four different pre-soaking solvents: Takju (a traditional rice wine), Spirits, Honey, and Sugar solution. The results showed no significant differences in DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities or in total polyphenol and flavonoid contents among the pre-soaking treatments, although samples pre-soaked in honey and Takju exhibited slightly higher levels. Polyphenol and flavonoid contents increased progressively with the number of SD cycles, reaching levels 2–3 times higher after nine cycles. Catalpol content remained relatively constant regardless of treatment, whereas aucubin content increased in all groups, with the highest accumulation observed in the Takju treatment. Similarly, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) content increased with the number of SD cycles, with the highest levels found in the honey group, followed by Takju, Sugar, and Spirits. In conclusion, while the type of pre-soaking solvent had minimal influence on antioxidant activities and catalpol content, both aucubin and 5-HMF contents increased with additional SD cycles, with Takju proving particularly effective in enhancing their accumulation.

본 연구는 습도센서에서 Zn-MOF (금속-유기구조)의 개발과 응용에 대해 다루며, 친환경적 합성과 우수한 전기적 특성을 보고한다. 그린 화학의 원리를 이용하여 제작된 Zn-MOF를 유연한 폴리에 틸렌테레프탈레이트 기판 상에 형성된 깍지낀 구조의 전극과 통합하였다. 상대습도가 10%부터 90%까지 증가할 때, 전기적 특성은 42.49 pF에서 370 nF까지 정전용량의 급격한 상승(약 939,322%)을 나타냈다. 또한, 임피던스는 47 MΩ에서 0.072 MΩ까지 약 99.81% 감소하였다. 제작된 습도센서는 반응시간 5초, 복구시간 약 0.7에서 0.9초로 동적으로 반응하였다. 이러한 결과는 Zn-MOF가 고도로 민감하고 반응성이 뛰어난 습도 모니터링할 수 있는 가능성과, 특히 다양한 환경 조건에서 센서의 정전용량성 반응성을 강조 하고자 한다.

This study investigated the impact of various soil environmental factors on the growth and yield of Actinidia arguta (A. arguta) in Suwon, South Korea. By employing Pearson correlation analysis, we explored the relationships between soil properties such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), organic matter content, available phosphorus, available silicon, soil moisture, and soil temperature with A. arguta growth and yield. The results revealed that soil temperature and EC had the strongest positive correlations with A. arguta growth, while organic matter content exhibited a strong negative correlation with fruit yield. The high levels of available phosphorus emerged as a potential adverse factor affecting yield. These findings suggest that managing soil temperature, EC, and phosphorus levels is crucial for optimizing A. arguta productivity. Future research should focus on fine-tuning phosphorus levels and further investigating the interactions between soil factors to enhance A. arguta yield and sustainability.
