The separation of In from the synthesis solution with Ga, Fe, and Al has been studied by the solvent extraction using D2EHPA as an extractant. The effects as a function of the concentration of extractant and HCl on the extraction of In were investigated. The extraction of In and Ga increased with decreasing HCl concentration, but that of Fe and Al was independent. Separation factor between In and Ga of 115 was obtained at 1.0 M D2EHPA in the presence of 0.5 M HCl of feed solution. Consequently, this study shows that D2EHPA is suitable extractant for In extraction from the synthesis solution. Extraction efficiency and separation factor could be increased by controlling HCl and extractant concentration.

Candida albicans is one of the most common etiological agents in fungi-associated skin infections. There is an increase of candidiosis especially in the patient of acquired or induced immunodeficiency syndromes or in the event of long-term antibiotics and immuno-suppressor or cytotoxic therapies. To screen out reliable and effective anti-candidiosis agent, in this study, we have evaluated antifungal activity of 298 plant extracts against C. albicans. Based on the results of disc-paper method and determination of minimal inhibitory concentration, fifteen extracts were finally selected as possible sources of anti-candidiosis agent. Especially, six different plant extracts, such as Rubus parvifolius, Euphorbia pekinensis, Coptis chinensis, Eugenia aromaticum, Paeonia lactiflora var. hortensis and Paeonia suffruticosa showed strong antifungal activity against C. albicans, not to S. cerevisiae. These results suggested that medicinal and wild plants could be the potential source of antifungal agent.

Extraction properties were investigated on ginseng leaf tea as functions of the current ethylene oxide fumigation and gamma irradiation at 2.5 to 10 kGy. In the extraction of tea constituents at boiling conditions, water soluble matters were the highest (83% yield for 5 min) in the time dependence, followed by tannin (82%), sugar (73%) and saponin (66%). No significant difference was observed in the extraction yield between the 5 kGy-irradiated and control samples, whereas both EO fumigation and 10 kGy irradiation reduced the extraction time of soluble matter and tannin, leading to the decrease in Hunter L value of tea extracts.

The panicle enclosing Gamadi rice cultivar from western Tarai of Nepal was treated with different daylengths; 8 hours, natural daylength i.e. 14 hours 30 minutes to 12 hours 30 minutes, and 24 hours throughout its life cycle. The extremely long daylength of 24 hours induced the panicle exsertion, and elongated the first internode from the top, but did not affect the second internode significantly, suggesting that the panicle exsertion was strongly correlated with the first internode elongation in the Gamadi rice cultivar.

The hot water extract from cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia Presl) inhibited the activity of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) with IC₅₀ value of 45.6 ㎍/mL. The ADH inhibitory components in cinnamon extract were relatively stable to acid and heat, but were found to be volatile. The optimum temperature and time for extracting the ADH inhibitory components from cinnamon were 80 ℃ and 2 h, respectively. Among the essential oils of cinnamon, cinnamaldehyde was the main substance for ADH inhibition. Cinnamaldehyde is considered a competitive inhibitor of ethanol to ADH. Therefore, the cinnamon extract and cinnamaldehyde showed the potential to be used as natural materials for relieving symptoms of a hangover.

The natural sources extracted from green tea and pine needle were utilized to investigate the effects of extracts on free radical reaction, lipid oxidation and nitrite scavenging ability. The degree of lipid oxidation is very sensitive to kinds of oil emulsion reacted with iron sources and oxygen species. The antioxidants of extracts from green tea and pine needle were different depending on concentration of extracts, which were a lower TBARS value in 0.3% extracts concentration, compared to 0.1% extracts concentration. And also, the binding ability on iron sources was superior in hot water extracts, but oxygen scavenging ability was the lowest TBARS values in ethanol extracts. The hydroxyl radical scavenging ability of green tea and pine needle extracts had a little low TBARS value in 0.1% and 0.3% extracts concentration in deoxyribose. The ethanol extracts of pine needle were higher than those of hot water extracts on the basis of Fe$\_$2+/ ion content. The ascorbic acid content of green tea showed 14.3 mg/100g in hot water extracts and 16.7 mg/100 g in ethanol extracts. Electron donating ability of extracts showed difference depending on extracts concentration, which were higher in ethanol extracts than those of hot water extracts. The nitrite scavenging effects were tended to be different depending on pH value, however they were decreased overall as pH value was increased. Especially, the nitrite scavenging ability of 0.3% extracts from green tea and pine needle were the mosts effective in pH 1.2 and pH 3.0, which were showed 95% nitrite scavenging ability.

This research was conducted to investigate the possibilities of usage of rose (Rosa hybrida L. cv. Mary Devor) by examining th antioxidative and antimicrobial activities of extracts with various levels of ethanol concentrates. Proximate composition, dietary fiber, and flavonoids contents were analyzed, and total antioxidant status and yield ratios of extraction of rose were measured. The rose extracts were extracted in different level of ethanol concentrates (0, 75, 85, 95%), and peroxide value, acid value, and TBA value were investigated in different level of concentrates of extracts added and time duration of storage. The results were as follows; derivation period from measuring peroxide value showed that the rose (Petal & Calyces) extract-added group showed longer derivation period than the control group, tocopherol-added, or BHT-added groups, and it proved to be a highly effective antioxidant as a result. It showed the longest derivation period especially when 85% ethanol extract was added with concentration of 0.05%. For the acid values and TBA values of the extract added oil, the rose extract-added group and BHT-added group showed lower values than the control group and tocopherol-added group as th length of time for storage becomes longer. In fact, the rose extracts suggested the possibility to be used as a natural antioxidants as it showed high antioxidative effect similar to BHT. Overall, the rose extracts from each solvent showed high antimicrobial effects against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus than control group. Especially, 85% ethanol extract showed significantly high antimicrobial effect against Escherichia coli.

Methanol extracts of 54 plant species in 32 families were tested for their antignawing activities against mice by wire-dipping method. The activity varied with plant species. Potent antignawing activity was observed in extracts from roots of Aucklandia lappa (Compositae), barks of Cinnamomum cassia (Lauraceae), fruits of Illicium verum (Magnoliaeceae), fruits of Piper nigrum (Piperaceae), rhizomes of Rheum officinale (Polygonaceae), and leaves of Pinus densiflora (Pinaceae). As naturally occurring rodent repellents, these plant-derived materials could be useful as a preventive agent against various kinds of damage caused by rodents.
