In this study, two types of amino acids-based anionic biosurfactants such as potassium cocoyl glutamate (CTK) and sodium cocoyl glutamate (CTN) were synthesized from coconut oils and the structure elucidation of CTK and CTN was carried out by using FT-IR, $^1H-NMR$ and $^{13}C-NMR$ spectrophotometries. Measurements of interfacial properties such as static and dynamic surface tensions and emulsification activity showed that both CTK and CTN were surface-active and effective in lowering the interfacial free energy. In particular, the CTK surfactant was found to be more efficient in reducing the interfacial free energy since the larger number of CTK molecules was preferentially adsorbed at the air-water interface due to the higher hydrophobicity and larger mobility of CTK than those of using CTN, indicating possible uses in cosmetics and household products formulation.

Oleanolic acid is known as which anti-cancer, anti-sinhaeng angiogenic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-wrinkle effects. We focused on the antioxidant activity of oleanolic acid was separated from the natural plant and It was confirmed that the whitening effect. In this study, oleanolic acid was stabilized by polyglyceryl surfactant which from natural origin with only a simple stirring operation, and compared with lecithin liposome that was manufactured with high cost facility. The transdermal transition rate of 0.4% oleanolic acid polyglyceryl nanoemulsion was 95%, and it was simillar with lecithin liposome of 92%. 65% of 3hr transdermal transition rate of polyglyceryl nanoemulsion indicate charistiristcs of quick release, compared with 45% of lecithin liposome's 3hr transdermal transition rate. In the in-vivo clinical trial test, polyglyceryl nanoemulsion of 0.4% oleanolic acid was higher 25% in 2nd week, 58% in 4th and 8th weeks than non-added oleanolic acid emulsion.

Alginate derivatives possessing various lengths of alkyl amine (C8, C12, C16) chain were prepared by oxidation followed by reductive amination of alginate and the products were characterized by spectral analysis. The surface tension critical micelle concentration (c. m. c) and solubility of a hydrophobic compound azobenzene were examined. Series of synthesized alginate-derived polymeric surfactants(APSs) reduced the surface tension. The dissolving capacity of APSs toward azobenzene was about half that of SDS. In order to investigate the capacity of metal adsorption Co and Pb were selected as a representative metal. The overall removal efficiency of APSs were high compared with that of alginate at pH 3.5 and 7 respectively. Major mechanism of the heavy metal removal is the complex of metal with carboxyl group.

This study was undertaken to develop a stable self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) for trans-cinnamaldehyde, a known antibacterial and antifungal agent. A simultaneous analytical method was established for quantification of trans-cinnamaldehyde and its degradant, cinnamic acid. Various surfactants were applied to assess their effect on the aqueous solubility of trans-cinnamaldehyde, and pseudo-ternary phase diagrams were plotted. Of the various formulations tested, the liquid SMEDDS composed of trans-cinnamaldehyde (oil), Cremophor EL (surfactant) and Transcutol P (cosurfactant) at a volume ratio of 10/70/20, produced the smallest emulsion droplet size (around 23 nm). The stability test determined the superior stability of the trans-cinnamaldehyde SMEDDS with constant trans-cinnamaldehyde content and z-average diameter of emulsion, under accelerated and heat stressed condition. Thus, we believe that this novel trans-cinnamaldehyde SMEDDS formulation has the potential to be applied for the development of trans-cinnamaldehyde medicines in the pharmaceutical industry.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of home care hair treatment characteristics and frequency on hair during permanent wave treatment. The hair treatments distributed on the market were classified into cationic surfactants and silicone oil. Hair treatment was performed 5 times, 10 times, 20 times differently according to the frequency of use, and hair permanent wave was performed. The hair thickness, tensile strength, epidermal observation using SEM, and hair component analysis using EDS were performed as experimental methods. The results of the experiment showed that the natural-derived ingredient was the main ingredient, and the cationic surface activity and silicon oil-free product group had high hair protection effect. Therefore, the product group using natural ingredients should be further researched and developed, and the study on the method and frequency of use of products with irritant chemical ingredients should be conducted.
