Torilin is a major sesquiterpene of Torilis japonica (Umbelliferae) fruits and known to be a melanogenesis inhibitor. Extraction conditions are important factor for the efficient preparation to save cost and time in economic aspects. For this reason, this study was conducted to optimize the extraction condition for maximal yield of torilin. For optimization, extraction factors such as extraction solvent, extraction temperature and sample/solvent ratio were tested and optimized for maximum yield of torilin using response surface methodology with Box-Behnken design (BBD). The optimal condition was obtained as a EtOAc concentration in MeOH of 31.8%, an extraction temperature at $30.3^{\circ}C$ and a sample/solvent ratio, 1000 mg/2 ml. The torilin yield under optimal conditions was found to be 9.9 mg/g dried samples, which were well-matched with the predicted value of 10.4 mg/g dried samples. These results will provide useful information about optimized extraction conditions for the development of torilin as cosmetic therapeutics to reduce skin hyperpigmentation.

Laminaria roots have not been practically used in Korea. In this study, the extraction process of carbohydrates and minerals from Laminaria roots was investigated and the properties of extracted components were measured. Hydrochloric acid generally used in carbohydrate extraction from seaweeds in order to obtain high extraction yield. But in this work, to utilize extracted components as a functional food material, organic acids such as citric acid were used. Organic acid as extraction solvent has low extraction yield compared to strong acids. Therefore optimum condition for maximum yield was investigated in carbohydrate extraction from Laminaria roots using organic acid. We measured the extraction yields of carbohydrate with variation of extraction temperature, extraction time, concentration of organic acid and particle size of samples. The extraction yield increased as the particle size decreased and temperature became high. The extraction yield was 19.0 wt% after 4.0 hours extraction with 0.2 wt% citric acid at $100^{\circ}C$. Potassium concentration was high compared other minerals in extraction solution, that is, the ratio of K/Na was about 3.0. Fucoidan from Laminaria roots had same carbohydrate composition and lower molecular weight compared that of Undaria pinnatifida.

In this study, we report the optimal extraction conditions for obtaining organosulfur compounds, such as cycloalliin, from garlic by using principal component analysis (PCA). Extraction variables including temperature ($40{\sim}80^{\circ}C$), time (0.5~12 h), and pH (4~12) were investigated for the highest cycloalliin yields. The cycloalliin yield (5.5 mmol/mL) at pH 10 was enhanced by ~40% relative to those (~3.9 mmol/mL) at pH 4 and pH 6. The cycloalliin level at $80^{\circ}C$ showed the highest yield among the tested temperatures (5.05 mmol/mL). Prolonged extraction times also increased cycloalliin yield; the yield after 12 h was enhanced ~2-fold (4 mmol/mL) compared to the control. Isoalliin and cycloalliin levels were inversely correlated, whereas a direct correlation between polyphenol and cycloalliin levels was observed. In storage for 30 days, garlic stored at $60^{\circ}C$ (11 mmol/mL) showed higher levels of cycloalliin and polyphenols than those at $40^{\circ}C$, with the maximum cycloalliin level (13 mmol/mL) on day 15. Based on the PCA analysis, the isoalliin level depended on the extraction time, while cycloalliin amounts were influenced not only by extraction time, but also by pH and temperature. Taken together, extraction of garlic at $80^{\circ}C$, with an incubation time of 12 h, at pH 10 afforded the maximum yield of cycloalliin.

Effects of particle size and high pressure processing on the extraction rate of oil compounds from soybean powder were evaluated by Soxhlet method using hexane and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using $CO_{2}$. SFE was carried out at 4,000 psi and $50^{\circ}C$ for 4 hr. The mean particle sizes were varied from 26.7 to 862.0 ${\mu}m$ by controlling milling time. Saturation solubility increased as the particle size decreased. At large particle size, high pressure processing (HPP) showed higher extraction yield in both hexane extraction and SFE, but, as the particle size decreased, the HPP was irrelevant to the extraction yield in SFE. The higher extraction rate obtained from the smaller particle size. The scanning electronic microscopy of soybean powder treated by HPP showed pores on the surface of the particle. The higher extraction rate and yield from HPP treatment might be due to the less internal resistance of transferring the solvent and miscellar in the solid matrix by collapsing of tissues.

In this study, natural emulsifiers were extracted from Medicago sativa L. and Sapindus saponaria L. The extraction yield using CCD-RSM and the extraction process of foaming stability of the extracted product were optimized and 95% confidence interval was used to confirm the statistical reasonableness of the optimization. Herein, independent parameters were the ethanol volume and extraction temperature, whereas reaction parameters were the extraction yield and foaming stability. Under the condition of 53.5 vol% ethanol and extraction temperature (70.9 ℃), the maximum yield and foaming stability of the extracted product from Medicago sativa L were predicted as 26.2 wt% and 44.5%, respectively. In the case of the extraction from Sapindus saponaria L, the maximum yield and foaming stability were expected to be 31.9 wt% and 47.5% under the optimized conditions including 60.4 vol% of ethanol and extraction temperature (72.4 ℃). The average experimental error for validating the accuracy was about 3.4(± 0.3)% and 5.0(± 0.04)% for the extraction processes from Medicago sativa L. and Sapindus saponaria L., respectively.

The extraction efficiency depending on the extracting methods and the conditions of extraction was investigated. The common steam extraction was compared to the distillation extraction method. The effects of the samples size and the extraction time on the extract yield were also investigated by using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. One of the functional components of pine needle extract as the natural phenol base components were detected by the UV-VIS at around 235 nm wavelength range. The absorbance intensity at around 235 nm wavelength of the pine needle extract was used as the indicator of the extraction efficiency in this experiment. The distillation extraction showed the higher extract yield than the steam extraction. The grinding treatment of pine needles also resulted in the better extract performance, but the severe grinding showed a little decrease in the extract yield especially in case of the distillation extraction method. More than half of the extract was collected at the first stage of the extraction, that was the first 15 minutes in the total 60 minutes extraction.

The swelling and hydration properties of Korean red ginseng tails and yield of total solids in extract were studied during extraction with ethanol solution having a concentration of 0-90% at $60-100^{\circ}C$. Extraction was carried out 5 times which was taken 8 hours per each time of extraction. The swelling, hydration and total solids yield were increased as the ethanol concentration decreased and as the extraction temperature raised. The cumulative value of solids yield suggested that three times of extractions with water or 70% ethanol were effective to recover more than 84%. Linear regression analysis on the properties investigated and extraction conditions showed a linear logarithmic relationship .

Velvet antler (VA) is a historically traditional medicinal supplement and is well known in Asian countries for its pharmaceutical and health benefits. The objectives for this study were to optimize the hot water extraction (HWE) of VA for the Korean VA industry, and to determine the most effective pretreatment method among microwave (MW), ultrasonication (US), and enzymatic (EZ) techniques. Using response surface methodology, optimum extraction temperatures and times were determined by central composite design configuration based on extraction yield and sialic acid content. Various quality parameters of VA extract including yield, soluble solid, protein, and sialic acid contents were also compared with the conjunction of HWE and pretreatment. The yield and sialic acid content of VA extract were determined to be 40% and 0.73 mg/g, respectively, under an optimum temperature of 100℃ at 24 h of extraction time. The yields from VA extracts pretreated with MW, US, and EZ were 17.42%, 19.73%, and 29.15%, respectively. Among the tested commercial enzymes, pepsin was the most effective proteolytic enzyme and led to the highest yield (47.65%), soluble solids (4.03 °brix), protein (1.12 mg/ml), and sialic acid (3.04 mg/ml) contents from VA extract.

The extraction of lactic acid by an emulsion liquid membrane (ELM), in batch and continuous mode, has been reported. On the basis of preliminary experiments, the optimum composition of the organic phase (membrane) is determined. When the SPan 80 is used as surfactant, the emulsion breakage exceeds 50%, but only 10% is obtained when the ECA4360 is used. The effects of surfactant, carrier and solute concentrations, phase volume ratio, and stirring speed on the extraction yield were examined and optimized. Surfactant, carrier and diluent used were ECA4360, trilaurylamine (TLA) and dodecane, respectively; 2-ethylhexane-1,3-diol (EHD) is used as a co-surfactant. Under optimal conditions, emulsion breaking is very low and the swelling is kept at its lowest level. Under the pH conditions of fermentation medium, the extraction yield is lower. A mixer-settler continuous system was used for testing these conditions. The residence time, the number of extraction stages and the stability of the emulsion were studied and optimized. The extraction yield obtained exceeds 90%.

Salidroside is a major phenolic glycoside of Acer tegmentosum (Aceraceae) and known to be a hepatoprotective compound. Extraction conditions are one of the most important factors to save time and cost from an economic point of view. For this reason, this study was conducted to optimize the extraction condition for maximum yield of salidroside. For optimization, three extraction factors such as ethanol concentration (%), extraction temperature (℃), and solvent to material ratio (mg/mL) were tested and optimized for maximum yield of salidroside using response surface methodology (RSM). The optimal condition was obtained as an ethanol concentration of 53.4%, an extraction temperature at 67.11℃ and a solvent to material ratio (mg/mL), 195.55 mg/ml. The salidroside yield under optimal conditions was found to be 1.59 mg/g dried samples, which were well-matched with the predicted value of 1.56 mg/g dried samples. These results will provide useful information about optimized extraction conditions for the development of salidroside as hepatoprotective therapeutics.
