Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a main body; an operation panel coupled to the main body to rotate between a storage position and a use position; a stopper positioned on the operation panel; a stopper support unit, located on a rotation trajectory of the stopper with interference, which has a blocking position to block a rotation of the operation panel to the use position and the storage position, and a non-blocking position to allow a rotation of the operation panel; an elastic member to generate an elastic force in a direction where the stopper support unit is located in the blocking position; and an operation member to rotate the stopper support unit to the non-blocking location.

Abstract: Disclosed is a catechin bioavailability enhancer comprising cyclodextrin as an active ingredient. Further, disclosed is a composition comprising a catechin bioavailability enhancer comprising catechin and cyclodextrin. The composition disclosed in the present specification may improve the stability of catechin which has significantly low intestinal absorption rate, and thus may improve bioaccessibility, intestinal transport rate and bioavailability of catechin. Accordingly, the improved bioavailability may further increase the effects of catechin such as the effects of reducing weight and body fat, anti-oxidative effects and anti-aging effects. The composition disclosed in the present specification having the abovementioned characteristics can be effectively used in the fields of food or pharmacy.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing fermented tea having superior flavor using Bacillus sp. strains isolated from Korean traditional fermented foods.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for reducing in-vivo lipid level, inhibiting lipoclasis and promoting discharge of a lipid, wherein the composition comprises, as active ingredients, fermented tea extracts obtained by inoculating strains to tea, wherein the strains are derive from fermented Korean traditional condiment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing flavored teas by using wood, and flavored teas prepared thereby. More specifically, the present invention relates to a preparation method of flavored teas with excellent palatability and flavors in which the method uses natural wood along with the appropriate flavoring time and temperature settings, and flavored teas prepared thereby.

Abstract: The present invention provides a preparation method of tea water comprising the following steps of: inactivating enzymes of raw tea leaves and juicing the tea leaves to obtain a tea juice; and removing ions of the tea juice obtained from the previous step to obtain tea water. In addition, the present invention provides tea water obtained by removing ions from a tea juice of raw tea leaves of which enzymes are inactivated. Skin-stimulating components are reduced in the tea water.

Abstract: An anode catalyst layer of a direct liquid feed fuel cell includes a Pt—Ru or Pt—Pd black catalyst; and a supported Pt—Ru or Pt—Pd catalyst having Pt—Ru or Pt—Pd supported on a carbon-based support. A membrane-electrode assembly of a direct liquid feed fuel cell includes an electrolyte membrane; and anode and cathode electrodes positioned to face each other with the electrolyte membrane being positioned therebetween, wherein the anode and cathode electrodes respectively include a gas diffusion layer and a catalyst layer. The anode catalyst layer of a direct liquid feed fuel cell shows excellent activity for an oxidation reaction of fuel and good catalyst stability and durability together with minimizing a dose of catalyst since a black catalyst and a supported catalyst are used together at an optimized ratio.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) for fuel cells, wherein the membrane electrode assembly has a porous membrane (a catalyst trapping layer) disposed at the opposite surface of a catalyst layer facing a polymer electrolyte membrane for preventing the loss of a catalyst, and a fuel cell including the same. The membrane electrode assembly has the effect of restraining the loss of the catalyst due to a liquid component, such as methanol, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the fuel cell. Especially, the membrane electrode assembly has the effect of minimizing the reduction in performance of the fuel cell due to the loss of the catalyst during the long-term operation.
