자외선차단 화장품은 기능성 화장품 중의 하나로서, 유·무기 자외선차단물질이 함유되어 있다. 무기계 자외선차단제는 주로 산화아연, 이산화티탄 등이 있다. 무기계 자외선차단제는 입자의 지름이 60 ~ 100 nm로 자외선 A, B의 차단능이 좋은 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 자외선을 포함한 태양광선에 대해 비활성이 크고 안전성이 우수하다. 그리고 유기계 자외선차단제처럼 피부에 흡수 또는 축적되지 않으므로 피부 자극이나 알레르기를 유발하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 판상 무기안료인 마이카, 자외선차단 효과를 갖는 이산화티탄 나노입자, 소수성 실리카를 각각 계면활성제로 표면처리 하였고, 각 물질의 전하 차이에 따른 비화학적인 상호 인력 작용에 의해 마이카에 이산화티탄 나노입자, 실리카를 물리적으로 흡착시켰다. 이후, 소수성 표면처리제인 실란을 표면처리 하여 소수성을 갖는 자외선 차단 판상 마이카 복합체를 제조하였다. 자외선 차단 판상 마이카 복합체는 일반적인 나노입자 이산화티탄의 응집성을 개선하고 균일한 분산에 따른 자외선차단 효과가 증대되었으며, 소수성으로 표면처리를 하여 화장품 제형에서의 분산안정성을 크게 개선할 수 있었다. 안료의 표면전하는 제타전위로 평가하였으며, 제조된 자외선차단 마이카 복합체의 특성 평가는 FE-SEM, XRD, FT-IR, UV-VIS 등으로 확인하였다.

The objective of this study was to investigate design factors of the electrolysis reactor through the CFD(computational fluid dynamics) simulation technique. Analyses of velocity vector, streamline, chloride ion concentration distribution showed differences in flow characteristics between the plate type electrode and the porous plate type electrode. In case of the porous plate type electrode, chlorine gas bubbles generated from the anode made upward density flow with relatively constant velocity vectors. Electrolysis effect was more expected with the porous plate type electrode from the distribution of chloride ion concentration. The upper part of the electrolysis reactor with the porous plate type electrode had comparatively low chloride concentration because chloride was converted to the chlorine gas formation. Decreasing the size and increasing total area of rectifying holes in the upper part of cathodes, and widening the area of the rectifying holes in the lower part of cathodes could improve the circulation flow and the efficiency of electrolysis reactor.

Background : Codonopsis lanceolata is a perennial plant of Campanulaceae and mainly distributed in East Asia such as Korea, China, and Japan. C. lanceolata has a unique taste and aroma, and it is rich in minerals such as phosphorus and calcium, and vitamin B1 and B2, so our ancestors used the plant as medicinal herb and edible vegetable. However, systematic cultivation and development of varieties have not been achieved compared to demand or high added value. The genetic diversity and relationship analysis of the plants help to increase the efficiency of breeding through genetic variation. Methods and Results : Ten species of Codonopsis plants were used as materials and DNA was extracted from each 4 individuals per species and quantified at a concentration of 10 ng /㎕. The extracted DNA was pooled by species and PCR was performed using the EST-SSR marker developed based on C. lanceolata in the previous study. PCR amplification was carried out using a denaturation at 94℃ for 30 sec, annealing at 58℃ for 30 sec and extension at 72℃ for 30 sec, repeated for 35 total cycles. The PCR products were separated in a 4% agarose gell at 100 V for 40 min. Conclusion : In this study, C. lanceolata collections was determined among several Codonopsis species using these molecular marker. It is expected that the data of this study can be used as reference for genetic polymorphism analysis and related gene studies of Codonopsis species.

Background : Codonopsis lanceolata is a perennial plant of Campanulaceae with characteristic flavor and aroma and this plant has saponin, flavonoid, and inulin, which are reported to have physiological activity and antioxidant activity. In contrast, breeding or study of C. lanceolata varieties had not been done for a long time. Genetic polymorphism and phylogenetic relationship analysis of the plants by region of the crops can help the collection of genetic backgroud data for variety development. Methods and Results : In this study, we collected 26 C. lanceolata lines (95 individual plants) from 26 regions in Korea. We genotyped the collected lines using SSR markers developed in the previous study and analyzed the population structure based on the results. Population structures were analyzed using model-based STRUCTURE software (version 2.3.4) using the following parameters: Number of clusters (K) set = 1 to 12; Number of Iterations = 5; Length of Burning Period = 100,000; Number of MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) Reps after Burnin = 100,000. As a result, Of the 26 collections, were genetically grouped into 6 or 7 groups. Conclusion : The 26 C. lanceolata collections (95 individual plants) were genetically grouped but not grouped by collected regions. These results suggest that C. lanceolata has diverse genetic backgrounds and this data could be used as a basis for genetic polymorphism analysis of Codonopsis species.
