Optimum extraction condition and clarification process were investigated to manufacture liquid extract tea using Phellinus linteus. Carbohydrates content in the raw Phellinus linteus was 80.9%. Major minerals were K, Ca, Fe and Na, but vitamin B$_1$, B$_2$, and C were not detected. The best extraction condition was 5% raw material at 10$0^{\circ}C$ within 3 hr. To clarify the extract, three methods of filtration with depth filter pad, centrifugation and addition of several filter aids were studied. Filtration with depth filter pad and centrifugation were highly effective on the clarification and the changes in the turbidity for 7 weeks at 4$0^{\circ}C$ were not occurred. The optimum clarification condition was centrifugation above 6,000 rpm or filtration with 8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ depth filter pad.

The operational characteristics of the duoplasmatron ion source are investigated in order to obtain the maximum achievable extraction current of the $He^+$ ion beam with the small divergence. Under the variations of the gas pressure, the arc current, the magnet current and the extraction voltage of the ion source, the change of the extracted $He^+$ ion beam current is observed. An oxide filament, the mixture of BaO and SrO coated on Ni meshes, is used as the hot cathode, and its average lifetime is about 100 hours. The extraction current is linearly proportional to the arc current. As the magnet current of the ion source is increased, the extraction current increases, but the beam divergence becomes larger. The maximum extraction current is obtained at the source pressure of 0.084 Torr. The extraction current is proportional to the extraction voltage raised to the power of 3/2 as estimated from theory. At the extraction voltage of 5.72 kV, the maximum extraction current of 50 $\mu$A is obtained under the optimized extraction condition.

GC/MS was used to find an optimum experimental condition for the screening of organic acids in urine. Urinary organic acids were isolated through the liquid-liquid extraction method (LLE) to examine the influence of pH and the effect of including the back extraction and oximation processes respectively on the extraction. When pH was adjusted to 0.5 during the extraction without oximation process, relatively higher recovery rate and the smallest relative standard deviations (0.3-12.4%) were obtained. By removing the interference, the addition of back extraction made possible surer identification of organic acids with retention time of 15-16 minutes. Under this condition, we obtained the content distribution of urinary organic acids in healthy Korean children (n=16) by establishing the calibration curves for 51 standard organic acids.

Omija (Schizandra chinensis Baillon) has five lignans such as schizandrin, gomisin A, gomisin N, gomisin C and schizandrin C. Its major constituent, schizandrin, has a deterrent effect on nephrotoxicity of cisplatin, blood sugar and an ulcer of the stomach. In this study, we have investigated optimized extraction condition to make high functional beverage by quantifying schizandrin and measuring of browning index. Browning index was used as an index of color deterioration of anthocyanin. Browning index was decreased according to increment in extraction temperature and ethanol concentration. The optimum extraction time, extraction temperature and alcohol concentration levels were 3 hrs, $46^{\circ}C$ and 24% alcohol for high schizandrin concentration and desired browing index.

Caval syndrome is a life threatening condition caused by heavy worm burden in right cardiac chambers including right atrium, right ventricle, and vena cava and results in mechanical interference in tricuspid valvular excursion and blood flow to lower pulmonary arteries. A mechanical worm removal is the choice of option for treating this condition in dogs. In this study, we developed a new mechanical worm removal method using modified extraction brushes for treating dogs with caval syndrome. With this newly developed method, we successfully removed heartworms in two dogs with caval syndrome. Although the number of cases applied was small, authors found this method can be a good alternative retrieval method for mechanical worm removal in dogs.

As a series of investigation on the ex-N compounds, the amino acid composition of the naturally grown and cultured prawn meat extracts was analyzed according to the following extraction conditions: 70% ethyl alcohol extraction, alcohol treatment of the same concentration after hot water extraction for 30 min, and 5% TCA treatment. The Protein content and the level of pure protein was 22 .8% and 18.4% in naturally grown prawn muscle, and 21.8% and 15.3% in the cultured prawn muscle, respectively. None protein nitrogenous compounds of the extracts were 4.4% in the naturally grown prawn muscle and 6.5% in the cultured prawn muscle, respectively. According to the different extract condition, ex-N compounds and the amino acid composition and related compounds and the amino acid composition and related compounds showed high level from 5% trichloroacetic acid extraction. The content of ex-N compounds of the cultured prawn muscle was 1033.0mg%. whereas the content of amino acids and related compounds-N was 825.3mg%, nearly reached to 80% to the total extractive nitrogen. A common feature of the free amino acid composition in the extracts of the muscles of the naturally grown and cultured prawn was high contents of glycine, proline, taurine, alanine and hydroxyproline.

This paper presents a text extraction method of camera based document image. It is more difficult to recognize camera based document image in comparison with scanner based image because of segmentation problem due to variable lighting condition and versatile fonts. Both document binarization and character extraction are important processes to recognize camera based document image. After converting color image into grey level image, gray level normalization is used to extract character region independent of lighting condition and background image. Local adaptive binarization method is then used to extract character from the background after the removal of noise. In this character extraction step, the information of the horizontal and vertical projection and the connected components is used to extract character line, word region and character region. To evaluate the proposed method, we have experimented with documents mixed Hangul, English, symbols and digits of the ETRI database. An encouraging binarization and character extraction results have been obtained.

This study was carried out to investigate the effective extraction condition for increase of phytoecdysteroids from fronds of Matteuccia struthiopteris (FMS) and Osmunda japonica (FOJ). Lyophilizated fronds were mixed with three different solvents (MeOH, 80% EtOH or water) and then extraction was carried out by using six different methods, such as, immersion (room temp.), heating (60$^{\circ}C$), stirring (200 rpm) for 6 h, or sonication in 42 kHz ultrasonic bath for 15, 30 and 45 minutes. Contents of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and ponasterone A (PonA) were measured by using HPLC after purification of the extracts by $C_{18}$ cartridge. Altogether, our results indicate that the extraction using sonication with MeOH as a solvent (for 30 minutes) was the most effective condition for 20E and PonA from both MFS and FOJ. Resulting contents of 20E from FMS and FOJ were 66.76 and 104.48 ${\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ and PonA were 53.43 and 43.82 ${\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to remove paraffin wax binder effectively from powder injection molded part using supercritical fluids in powder injection molding process. For a thin powder injection molded part about 1-2 mm thickness, paraffin wax binder can be removed rapidly without any defect by traditional supercritical extraction process which has fixed high temperature and pressure condition. But, for a thick powder injection molded part, there are limitations in removing paraffin wax binder by the fixed high process condition because crack occurs at the beginning step. Therefore, here we studied variable condition debinding process that starts with mild process condition at the beginning step and then increase the process conditions simultaneously at each step. To find out the initial process condition that has the highest extraction yield without any defect for each sample thickness, we investigated various supercritical debinding conditions using 1-4 mm thickness ceramic injection molded sample. By using the variable condition debinding process that starts with the initial process condition at the first step and then increasing process conditions simultaneously at each step (temperature from 333.15 to 343.15 K, pressure from 12 to 27 MPa, and $CO_2$ flow rate from 1.5 to 10 L/min), over 95% of paraffin wax binder was removed from the 4 mm thick (10 mm diameter) ceramic injection molded disk samples within 5 hours.

Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) has attracted growing interest, as it is an effective method for the rapid extraction of bioactive compounds from plants with a high extraction efficiency comparable to the conventional extraction. In this study, UAE was used for the extraction of polyphenols from lipid extracted microalgae (Tetraselmis KCTC 12236BP) and the effects of five extraction variables on the total phenolic compounds (TPC) were studied. For the optimization of extraction parameters, particle size, solid-to-liquid (L/S) ratio, ethanol concentration, extraction temperature and extraction time have been examined as independent variables. All variables exhibited the significant effects on the extraction of TPC and extraction temperature showed the most significant effect among five variables. The optimal extraction conditions were the extraction using mixed particle, S/L ratio of 10%, ethanol concentration of 60%, extraction temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ and extraction time of 30 min, which gave the 8.7 mg GAE/g DW for TPC. Compared with conventional hot-water extraction, TPC extraction under UAE was increased by up to 1.8 fold with same extraction condition. This study showed that UAE under low temperature and short extraction time was proven to be an effective extraction process for TPC production from LEA compared to conventional hot-water extraction process.
