Angelica gigas Nakai (AGN) is a traditional medicinal herb especially in Korea. It contains pyranocoumarins, which are major active components including decursin (D) and decursinol angelate (DA). This study was carried out to determine the change in active component content and antioxidant activity depending on the root diameter of AGN. Several processing steps are involved to use AGN roots as medicine. The dried AGN roots are divided into body (B), thick root (TkR), medium root (MR) and thin root (TnR) according to their diameter before cutting into medicine. The recovery rates of each root parts per 100 ㎏ were measured as 32.3±2.5, 9.0±1.0, 39.3±2.1 and 15.0±1.0%, respectively and the mean diameters were measured as 51.95±4.55, 7.05±0.89, 2.88±0.49 and 1.57±0.32 ㎜. Two index components, D and DA, were analyzed. The change of both D and DA content showed a similar tendency. Both D and DA content were increased as the root diameter decreased (higher in TnR). In addition, antioxidant activity was higher in B and TnR, and lower in TkR and MR than control. This study showed that the thinner the root diameter, the higher the D and DA content in AGN roots and that TnR has excellent antioxidant activity compared to other root parts, suggesting that the thinner root part of AGN could be used as a potential material.

Background: Astragalus membranaceus belonging to the Leguminosae family is often utilized as a traditional medicine. The aim of this study was to elucidate the basic breeding information required to develop short stem A. membranaceus cultivars. Methods and Results: Roots of A. membranaceus advanced yield trial (AYT) lines were harvested in late October 2017. Root yield of six AYT lines were increased in a range of 8.9 - 74.8% compared with ‘Aseong’ as control (check variety). The height of seven AYT lines were shorter than that of ‘Aseong’. In addition, stem diameter of nine AYT lines was thicker than that of ‘Aseong’. Consequently, 1502-56, 1503-90, and 1510-80 were selected as elite lines for the development of short stem cultivars. HPLC analysis was perfromed to identify lines with high level active components such as calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside and calycosin. The levels of both active components were higher in 1502-56, and 1503-90, but not in 1510-80 compared to ‘Aseong’. In addition, 2,2-Diphenyl- 1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity was higher in the 1502-56 compared to ‘Aseong’. Considering these results, two AYT lines, 1502-56 and 1503-90 were selected as short stem lines with high calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside and calycosin content. Conclusions: Taken together, Two short stem lines were identified in this study. In our future study, regional yield trial (RYT) will be conducted using these selected lines to develop new cultivars.

Removal of siloxane compounds is very important to protecting the biogas energy conversion system from decreased efficiency and parts damage. Among various siloxane removal technologies, adsorption towers are mostly used for performance and ease of operation. However, due to the difficulty of measuring the concentration of siloxane compounds in the gas stream and the complicated matrix of siloxane compounds, adsorption characteristics are not well known. In this study, the adsorption characteristics for multi siloxane components are experimentally studied. Four siloxane components are vaporized in the nitrogen stream supplied continuously to a lab-scale adsorption tank with commercially available silica gel or activated carbon and an FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy) analyzer was used for the online siloxane analysis to find out the adsorption characteristics. While a mixture of L2, L5, D4 and D5 adsorption capacity of silica gel and activated carbon are similar -11.13 and 11.56wt% respectively-adsorption characteristics of each adsorbent was well distinguished in terms of breakthrough behavior. Silica gel shows sequential breakthrough for each siloxane compound and a more noticeable unique time range for Rc > 1, while relatively simultaneous breakthrough was shown for activated carbon adsorbents.

The use of Rehmannia glutinosa of the family Scrophulariaceae, in traditional medicine is well known. This study was conducted to elucidate the effect of air curing of the seed rhizome of R. glutinosa on its storability and yield. Methods and Results: The root of the R. glutinosa cultivar (Dagang) was harvested in at the end of November. The seed rhizomes were air cured for one to seven days. They were subsequently wrapped with newspaper and further stored in a plastic container at 1℃. It was observed that the weight loss and decay rates were significantly lower in the air cured seeds than in the untreated ones. Moreover, the decay rate of the control was approximately 50%, 120 days after storage. However. the decay rate of all the air cured treatment groups was less than 1%. Additionally, air curing led to an increase in the germination rate of the seeds and the root yield when compared with the untreated groups. Taken together, the ideal treatment period for air curing was found to be 3 days. Under these conditions, the germination rate and yield were 88.7% and 2,185 ㎏/10a, respectively. Conclusions: This study successfully demonstrated that the air curing of seed rhizomes can lead to a considerable increase in the storability and yield of R. glutinosa.

sources of flavonoid, including quercetin, rutin and catechin. The flavonoid content of Tartary buckwheat is 9 - 300 times higher than the common buckwheat. The objective of this study was to compare phenolic compound content and antioxidant activity of tatary buckwheat and common buckwheat in different plant parts. Methods and Results : Total polyphenol, flavonoid contents and DPPH free radical scavenging activity was measured in seed, stem and leaf of tatary buckwheat followed by cultivation period. Total polyphenol content was higher in tatary buckwheat compared to common buckwheat. Total polyphenol contents was 347.33 ㎍/㎖ in tatary buckwheat seed extract and 57.24 ㎍/㎖ in common buckwheat stem (2 month). Total flavonoid content was also higher in tatary buckwheat than common buckwheat. Total flavonoid contents of tatary buckwheat seed extract was 45.68 ㎍/㎖, where as common buckwheat seed content 21.29 ㎍/㎖. DPPH free radical scavenging activity was higher in tatary buckwheat than common buckwheat. DPPH free radical scavenging activity was 85.76% in tatary buckwheat leaf (2 month) and 54.44% was in common buckwheat stem (2 month). Conclusion : This study indicates that polyphenol contents of tatary buckwheat extract depend on their part and the chronology is the seed> leaf > stem. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of leaf and stem is in inverse proportion to cultivation period. But, DPPH free radical scavenging activity make no difference according to plant cultivation age.

Background : Angelica gigas Nakai (AGN) is a perennial plant found in East Asian countries and an crucial medicinal herb especially in Korea. It contains several chemicals like pyranocoumarins, which are major active components including decursin (D) and decursinol angelate (DA), essential oils and polyacetylenes. This study was carried out to determine the change in active components depending on the root diameter of AGN. Methods and Results : Several processing steps are involved to use AGN roots as medicine. The dried AGN roots are divided into body (B), thick root (TkR), medium root (MR) and thin root (TnR) according to their diameter before cutting into medicine. Among them, B and TkR are mainly used as medicine. The mean diameter of dried each root part (B, TkR, MR, TnR) were measured as 51.95, 7.05, 2.88, and 1.57 ㎜, respectively. The water content of each root part was slightly reduced depending on the size of the diameter (higher in B). In addition, the two active components, D and DA, were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The change of both D and DA content showed a similar tendency. Both D and DA content were increased as the root diameter decreased (higher in TnR). Conclusion : This study showed that the thinner the root diameter, the higher the D and DA content in AGN roots, suggesting that the thinner root parts of AGN could be used as potential materials.

This study is the result of the survey on perception and anxiety of high - rise buildings in the general public. As a result of the survey, there was insufficient change in awareness before the construction of high - rise buildings such as landmarks was insufficient (before 2015). However, half of the citizens who felt uneasy that high-rise buildings were likely to collapse due to external influences were close. The anxiety was mainly due to the information of the press or the Internet. It is thought that the cause of anxiety comes from touching negative opinions about the high-rise buildings.

This study investigated quality characteristics of sourdough bread added with different amounts of lactic acid bacteria culture solution (LCBC) and cinnamon extract (Control: water 700 mL, sample A: water 670 mL+LCBC 30 mL, sample B: water 670 mL+LCBC 22.5 mL+Cinnamon extract 7.5 mL, sample C: water 670 mL+LCBC 15 mL+Cinnamon extract 15 mL, sample D: water 670 mL+LCBC 7.5 mL+Cinnamon extract 22.5 mL and sample E: water 670 mL+Cinnamon extract 30 mL). The weight of dough was not significant between samples, and the weight of bread was highest in samples D. The volume and specific volume were the highest in sample C but the baking loss rate was highest in the control (p<0.05). The L value, springiness and cohesiveness were decreased as addition of cinnamon extract increased. However, a value, b value, hardness, gumminess and chewiness were reversed. The sourdough bread produced by adding lactic acid bacteria culture solution improved the volume and texture. It was thought that it is helpful to add lactic acid bacteria culture solution and cinnamon extract for manufacturing a loaf of bread.
