The acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor of Yarrowia lipolytica S-3 was maximally produced when it was incubated at $30^{\circ}C$ for 36 h in an optimal medium containing 1% yeast extract, 2% peptone and 2% glucose, with an initial pH 6.0. The final AChE inhibitory activity under these conditions was an $IC_{50}$ value of 64mg/ml. After partial purification of the AChE inhibitor by means of systematic solvent extraction, the final $IC_{50}$ value of the partially purified AChE inhibitor was 0.75 mg/ml. We prepared a test product by using the partially purified AChE inhibitor and then determined its stability for the development of a new antidementia commercial product. The test product was stable at room temperature for 15 weeks.

In [15] they introduced a new finite element method for accurate numerical solutions of Poisson equations with corner singularities, which is useful for the problem with known stress intensity factor. They consider the Poisson equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, compute the finite element solution using standard FEM and use the extraction formula to compute the stress intensity factor, then they pose a PDE with a regular solution by imposing the nonhomogeneous boundary condition using the computed stress intensity factor, which converges with optimal speed. From the solution we could get accurate solution just by adding the singular part. This approach works for the case when we have the accurate stress intensity factor. In this paper we consider Poisson equations with mixed boundary conditions and show the method depends the accrucy of the stress intensity factor by considering two algorithms.

Solubilization of bovine serum albumin(BSA) is performed using a reverse micellar system consisting of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate(AOT). Of particular, effects of pH, salt concentration and its type on the solubilization are investigated by means of the phase-transfer method. One of significant findings in our study is that the protein is to a large extent aggregated in the interface between organic and aqueous phases at lower pH and small salt concentration. In this presentation, the optimal extraction process conditions for BSA, which is bulky, are proposed.

Actinomycetes GF 155-2, which produced an extracellular pepsin inhibitor, was isolated from soil samples. Optimal conditions of inhibitor production by flask-shacking culture were 2% glucose, 0.7% polypeptone, initial pH 1.0, culture time 60 hours and temperature 30%. Effect of in-organic salts was not observed. About 5mg of colorless crystalline inhibitor was obtained from 5L culture broth in jar tormentor by means of ammonium sulfate precipitation, methanol extraction, and column chromatographies on Amberlite IR-120, XAD-2 and silicagel 60.

Angiotensive I-converting enzyme inhibitory activity of various extracts from some rice brans were investigated with its optimal extraction conditions. Water extracts of Ilpumbyeo rice bran showed the highest ACE inhibitory activities of 7730%. ACE inhibitor from Ilpumbyeo rice bran was maximally extracted when its powder was treated with 10 times of distilled water for 12h at $30^{\circ}C$.

아세틸콜린에스터라아제(AChE) 저해제에 의한 아세틸콜린 분해 억제는 알츠하이머 질병의 가장 확실한 치료 방법 중의 하나로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 최근 웰빙 건강 소재로 각광을 받고 있는 과일과 채소로부터 새로운 AChE 저해제를 개발하여 항치매 식품이나 대체 의약품 생산에 응용하기 위해 과일과 채소로부터 AChE 저해 활성이 우수한 시료를 선별하고, AChE 저해 물질의 추출조건을 최적화하였다. AChE 저해 활성은 호두의 메탄올 추출물에서 72.6% ($IC_{50}=14.2\;{\mu}g$)로 가장 높았고, 호두의 AChE 저해 물질은 80% 메탄올로 $40^{\circ}C$에서 12시간 동안 처리하였을 때 가장 많이 추출되었다.

To develop a new anti-dementia acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor from edible mushrooms, AChE inhibitory activities were determined on water and ethanol extracts of various edible mushrooms from oriental medicine markets and agriculture markets. As a result, the 70% ethanol extract from Pholiota adiposa fruiting body had the highest AChE inhibitory activity of 30.6, and its water extract also had an AChE inhibitory activity of 23.8%. Therefore, we finally selected P. adiposa as a potent anti-dementia AChE inhibitor-containing mushroom. The AChE inhibitor of P. adiposa was maximally extracted when its fruiting body was treated with water for 3hr at $70^{\circ}C$ and 70% ethanol for 12 hr at $70^{\circ}C$, respectively.

This study was performed to develop new anti-obesity agents for functional foods from medicinal plants and herbs. Methanol extracts from 560 kinds of medicinal plants and herbs, and their lipase inhibitory activities were investigated. Methanol extract from Desmodium oxyphyllum Dc showed the highest lipase inhibitory activity at 74.2%. This lipase inhibitory activity was maximally extracted when powder of Desmodium oxyphyllum Dc was treated with 80% methanol (1 : 20) for 48 h.

Acetic acid is the most abundant and serious ethanol fermentation inhibitor in dilute-acid hemicellulosic hydrolysates. A mixture of xylose, acetic acid and sulfuric acid was chosen as a simulated hemicellulosic hydrolysate so as to find an optimal separation system to selectively remove acetic acid from the hydrolysates. In order to attain the purpose, emulsion liquid membrane was applied to removal of acetic acid from the simulated hemicellulosic hydrolysate. The effects of main constituents of water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion, such as amine extractant type, surfactant composition, additive type, and type and concentration of stripping agent, on extraction of acetic acid, xylose, and sulfuric acid in the simulated hemicellulosic hydrolysate were investigated. Under specific experimental conditions, degree of extraction of acetic acid was higher than 95% while loss of xylose was insignificant, which means that the current emulsion liquid membrane can be an economically feasible process.

In this study, Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) with GC/FID was studied as a possible alternative to liquid-liquid extraction for the analysis of BTEX and MTBE. Experimental parameters affecting the SPME process (such as kind of fibers, adsorption time, desorption time, volume ratio of sample to headspace, salt addition, and magnetic stirring) were optimized. Experimental parameters such as CAR/PDMS, adsorption time of 20 min, desorption time of 5 min at $250^{\circ}C$, headspace volume of 50 mL, sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration of 25% combined with magnetic stirring were selected in optimal experimental conditions for analysis of BTEX and MTBE. The general affinity of analytes to CAR/PDMS fiber was high in the order p-Xylene>Toluene>Ethylbenzene>MTBE>Benzene. The linearity of $R^2$ for BTEX and MTBE was from 0.970 to 0.999 when analyte concentration ranges from $30{\mu}g/L$ to $500{\mu}g/L$, respectively. The relative standard deviation (% RSD) were from 2.5% to 3.2% for concentration of $100{\mu}g/L$ (n=5), respectively. Finally, the limited of detection (LOD) observed in our study for BTEX and MTBE were from $7.5{\mu}g/L$ to $15{\mu}g/L$, respectively.
