Natural state materials contain a lot of available nutrient components. Among them, natural nutrient substances are utilized not only as the ingredient of functional foods but also as the excipients of functional cosmetics and pharmaceutic. Of these nutrient substances, solubility parameters of each components were calculated to choose the most suitable solvents for solutions. The solubility parameters for each components were composed of the dispersion contribution of the molecular attractive function, the polar contribution of the molecular attractive function and the contribution of the hydrogen bonding force. The chi parameters ($\chi_{12}$) were calculated with the information of the solubility parameter for the solute and solvent and were used as the criteria for the optimal solute-solvent pair. The optimal solvents were suggested with the numerical values of chi parameters for some amino acids.

Bokbunja (Rubus coreanus Miquel) is a wild berry belonging to Rosaceae genus of which application areas have been expanded due to many health effects. Bokbunja berry contains carbohydrates, protein, fats and dietary fibers as major components and various flavonoids such as tannins, volatile components including organic acids, alcohols and hydrocarbons as minor ones. Those active compounds attribute to the following health effects: increase in immune function and antioxidant activity, rise in hormone secretion, suppression of the growth of type B hepatitis virus, and control of weight gain. To utilize the above activities, many products have been developed by using Bokbunja berry extracts in the area of foods, liquors, and cosmetics. Recently, pure compounds have been isolated from the extracts for the development of medicines. In this mini review, the state-of-the-art of Bokbunja researches and applications including papers and patents is summarized.

Mushroom consumption causes changes in the immune system and gut microbiota via the actions of mushroom probiotic components. β-Glucan structure-related substances suppress secretion of inflammatory mediators, and induce macrophage activation, enhancing immunity and immune function. Substances other than directly useful components can be metabolized into short-chain fatty acids by gut microbiota. These short-chain fatty acids can then induce immunity, alleviating various diseases. Substances used to stimulate growth of health-promoting gut bacteria, thereby changing the gut microbiota community are defined to be probiotics. Probiotic altered intestinal microflora can prevent various types of bacterial infection from external sources, and can help to maintain immune system balance, thus preventing diseases. Research into beneficial components of Pleurotus eryngii, Lentinula edodes, Pleurotus ostreatus, Flammulina velutipes, Auricularia auricula-judae, and Agaricus bisporus, which are frequently consumed in Korea, changes in microbiota, changes in short-chain fatty acids, and correlations between consumption and health contribute to our understanding of the effects of dietary mushrooms on disease prevention and mitigation.

Comparative analysis of paeoniflorin, albiflorin and phenolic compound contents as bioactive components of peony was performed by Reverse Phase-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RPHPLC) using the four- year-old peony which were different plant parts and pretreatment, such as removing or unremoving the cork layer of peony root before drying. The contents of paeoniflorin, albiflorin, (+)-taxifolin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin were the highest in rhizome part, but those of gallic acid and benzoic acid in the leaves were higher than other parts. The contents of albiflorin, gallic acid, benzoic acid and (-)-epicatechin in the cork layer were higher than in those of the core, but the contents of paeoniflorin, (+)-taxifolin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ and (+)-catechin in the core were higher than those in the cork layer. In general, the rhizome part of peony root has been used only propagation purpose, but this part contained high contents of bioactive component. Therefore, it is needed that medicinal application of rhizome part in peony root was firmly investigated. Also, In the use of peony root for medicinal purpose, the use of peony root with cork layer can be efficient way on the practical use of useful components and the reduction of labor for removing the cork layer.

The present study was carried out to investigate the changes in essential oil contents as a part of searching the changes in active components in the graft cultivation of A. senticosus. To increase the yield of aerial parts and the contents of active components of Acanthopanax senticosus, scions of A. senticosus were grafted on different rootstocks. As a result, the contents of calarene, ${\alpha}-beramotene$ and spathulenol increased, but cis-caryophyllene and epizonarene contents decreased. ${\beta}-pinene$, ${\beta}-myrcene$, 2,5,5 -trimethyl-1, 3, 6-heptatriene and ${\beta}-elemene$ were not detected in the leaves of grafted A. senticosus. Essential oils from stems did not differ with the methods of cultivation. Oil contents of 3-year-old plants were higher than those of 1-year-old plants, whereas ${\alpha}-bergamotene$ content(27%) was highest in the stem of grafted A. senticosus(27%). Ethylbenzene, 2-furancarboxaldehyde, M134 $(t_R=2.11)$ and M205 $(t_R=3.16)$ disappeared in the roots of A. senticosus var. subinermis, but 6,6-dimethyl-3-methylenebicycloheptane, M166 $(t_R=1.82)$, and (+) -aromadendrene and ${\beta}-bisabolene$ were newly found.
