This study was carried out to verify the antimicrobial effect of Graviola leaves against pathogenic bacteria for the purpose of developing an antibacterial material. The extraction conditions of graviola leaves were $60^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$ and $98^{\circ}C$, and graviloa leaves werewater extracted at $60^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$ and $98^{\circ}C$.The extraction yields and extraction conditions were determined. The antimicrobial activity against S. epidermidis, S. aureus and E. coli TOP10 was evaluated by agar diffusion method. The extraction yields were 3.02%, 14.73% and 20.76% at $60^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$ and $98^{\circ}C$, respectively. The antimicrobial activity against S. epidermidis, S. aureus and E. coli TOP10 was found in S. epidermidis.In the samples extracted at $98^{\circ}C$, a clear zone of 13 mm was observed at 200 mg/mL and of 20 mm at 500 mg/mL. The MIC was 100 mg/mL. The higher the extraction temperature and concentration, the better was the growth inhibition effect. As a result, the natural antimicrobial activity contained in natural materials can solve the problem of resistance to antibiotics. It is considered that antimicrobial activity against S. epidermidis in skin is highly applicable to basic cosmetics and cosmetic materials.

This study examined the optimization of hot-water extraction conditions for maximizing the total polyphenol compounds (TPC) extracted from amaranth leaf. The effects of three independent variables, including extraction temperature, extraction time and ethanol concentration on TPC were investigated using central composite design (CCD). The concentration of TPC increased with increased levels of extraction temperature and time. The extraction temperature and the ethanol concentration showed the significant effect on TPC production (p<0.05). The predicted values at the optimized condition were acceptable when compared to the experimental values ($R^2=0.9566$). The optimum extraction conditions were as follows: temperature of $90.1^{\circ}C$, time of 50 min and ethanol concentration of 61.6% (v/v) for the maximum TPC of 12.6 mg GAE/g DM.

This study was carried out to evaluate biological activities concerning extracts according to extraction methods from unripened fruit of Rubus coreanus Miq. The extraction methods were HWE (hot water extraction for 4 hr at $100^{\circ}C$), SFE (extraction for 3 hr at $40^{\circ}C$ under 300 bar, 100% of $CO_2$ fluid), USE (ultrasonification extraction for 4 hr at $50^{\circ}C$ with water), USE+HWE (hot water extraction for 2 hr at $100^{\circ}C$ after ultrasonification process for 2 hr), VE (vacuum extraction for 4 hr at $90^{\circ}C$ under 0.9 bar with water). VE extract showed the highest contents of total polyphenol ($178.78{\pm}3.79\;mg/g$) and total flavonoid ($40.93{\pm}0.68\;mg/g$). $IC_{50}$ values of DPPH radical scavenging activity, linoleic acid peroxidation inhibition activity and LDL (low density lipoprotein) oxidation inhibition activity of HWE extract showed the lowest $35.39{\pm}0.25{\mu}g/mL$, $12.61{\pm}0.31{\mu}g/mL$ and $1.31{\pm}0.02{\mu}g/mL$ among other all extracts, respectively. $IC_{50}$ values of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of VE and HWE extracts showed lower $14.34{\pm}0.20{\mu}g/mL$ and $15.83{\pm}0.20{\mu}g/mL$ than those of other extracts, respectively. Specifically, HWE and VE extracts have relatively better biological activities than other extracts; these could be potentially used as a bioactive source for health functional foods.

This study reports the unusual complications of 22-year-old male who presented with sudden hearing loss after the right mandibular third molar extraction under local anesthesia with 3.6 ml of 2 % lidocaine. Total 8.75 mg of oral dexamethasone for 1 week immediately after extraction was prescribed in department of oral and maxillofacial surgery but hearing did not improve after 1 week. As referral to otolaryngology, total 600 mg of oral methylon and hyperbaric oxygen therapies were operated for 2 weeks. The hearing of patient was improved at 6 weeks after extraction but tinnitus was persisted even after 12 months. The reason and treatment were discussed with literature review, searching with the keywords ['hearing loss' AND ('dental' OR 'tooth extraction'OR'teeth extraction')] in PubMed and Google scholar at October 2019. Total five cases were reported after tooth extraction with local anesthesia. The sudden hearing loss could be associated with local anesthesia containing vasoconstrictors. Early steroid (extensive medication and intra-tympanic injection) and hyperbaric oxygen therapies were recommended within 2 weeks. As a proper treatment, hearing could be improved but other additional symptoms, such as tinnitus, dizziness, might be remained.

Hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities of Acer mono and A. okamotoanum were compared after being extracted by low temperature and high pressure (LTHP) at 20 MPa and $60^{\circ}C$ for 15 minutes. Extraction yield of both A. mono and A. okamotoanum was increased about 40~43% by this extraction process. On scavenging activities, the bark of A. okamotoanum from this extraction process showed the highest activity as about 97%. This value was higher than that from conventional water extraction and A. mono extracts. Both of A. mono and A. okamotoanum showed high ability on nitrite scavenging, but decreasing tendency according to increasing of pH. On SOD-like test, A. okamotoanum had the highest activity as 46.28% at $1.0\;mg/m{\ell}$ concentration. A. okamotoanum extracted by LTHP also showed the highest activity as 197.38% in adding $1.0\;mg/m{\ell}$ concentration. Generally, the extracts from low temperature and high pressure extraction process are higher hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities than that from conventional water extraction. It can conclude that the bark of A. okamotoanum has better biological activities than other parts of A. mono.

Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) of grape seeds was performed under the different conditions based on a central composite design for independent variables of microwave power ($0{\sim}120\;W$), ethanol concentration ($0{\sim}100%$) and extraction time ($1{\sim}5\;min$). Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to predict the optimum extraction conditions for three dependent variables in grape seed extracts: total yield, total catechin and electron donating ability. Determination coefficients ($R^2$) of regression equations for the three dependent variables were higher than 0.9 (p < 0.01). The optimal MAE conditions to yield the maximum value of total catechin (434.16 mg%) were 122.76 W microwave power, 42.88% ethanol and 4.67 min extraction time. The superimposed contour maps for maximizing the three dependent variables indicated that the MAE condition ranges were 75150 W, 4060% ethanol and 3.55.0 min. The predicted values at the optimized conditions (6.72% total yield, 408.65 mg% total catechin, and 83.33% electron donation ability) were similar to the experimental values. The optimized MAE (112.5 W, 50% EtOH, 4.2 min) was more efficient than the conventional solvent extraction using 80% EtOH, $60^{\circ}C$ for 3h and 150 rpm.

Optimum extraction conditions were investigated for the manufacture of Kiwi liqueur. Eight-weeks of storage was found to be the optimal extraction time for unsliced fruit, but 4 week of storage was found to be optimal extinction time when the fruit was sliced into 4 pieces. There were no changes in the brix, pH and total acidity during extraction. However 24.92 ppm of methanol and acetaldehyde was detected after extracting the liqueur after 8 week extraction time when the fruit was sliced into 4 pieces. The sensory evaluation showed the highest over all acceptability. The Kiwi liqueur was contained 48.90 mg% of total phenolic compounds, 16.7 mg% of vitamin C, 1.77% of malic acid, 1.18% of fructose, 1.12% of glucose and 0.08% of maltose at the optimum extraction conditions. The sensory quality of the Kiwi liqueur was estimated to be best when 0.035% of stevioside, 0.0085% of citric acid and 0.005% of salts were added to the Kiwi liqueur.

The objective of this study was to determine the antioxidant activities of rice bran extracts by three different extraction methods. Rice bran was extracted by solvent extraction, saponification extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction. The antioxidant activities of the rice bran extracts were determined based on ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities, reducing power, and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity. The unsaponifiable matter (USM) extracted by the saponification method showed higher ABTS (671.7 mg Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC)/g) and DPPH (330.7 mg TEAC/g) radical scavenging activities as well as reducing power ($A_{700}=1.14$) than those of the solvent extract (ME) and supercritical fluid extract (SFE). Inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation was higher in USM (68.7%) and SFE (75.4%) compared to ME (47.8%). USM indicated relatively higher antioxidant activities compared with those of SFE and ME. These results show that the saponification method for extraction of USM from rice bran extracted was the most effective method for enhancement of antioxidant activity. In addition, these extracts from rice bran could be used as functional ingredients in the food industry.

Separation of Co and Ni over Mg from the sulfuric acid solutions using Cyanex272, PC88A and Versatic acid 10 as an extractant was carried out. From the comparative studies about the extraction behavior of Co, Ni and Mg, Versatic acid 10 was superior to Cyanex272 and PC88A for the selective extraction of cobalt and nickel from the mixed solutions. About 98% of Ni and Co were extracted at equilibrium pH 7.0 and less than 5% of Mg was co-extracted by Versatic acid 10. McCabe-Thiele diagram indicated two stages requirement for Co and Ni extraction by 10% Versatic acid 10 at pH 7.0 and phase ratio (A/O) of 2.0. The loaded Co and Ni in organic phase was stripped effectively the sulfuric acid concentration above 70 g/L. 99.78% of cobalt and 98.42% of nickel were stripped.
