Rhodiola rosea, also known as gold root or rose root, is a perennial plant in the family of Crassulaceae. The rhizhome of R. rosea has been widely used as a hemostatic, tonic for burns and contusions in traditional Chinese medicine. Recent studies reported its strong antioxidant and adaptogenic properties. In this paper, we attempted to isolate compounds from the methanolic extract of R. rosea rhizomes. Four compounds including one new compound (1), two kaempferol glycosides (3 and 4) were isolated from chloroform and ethyl acetate soluble fraction of R. rosea extract. The structures of 1~4 including relative stereochemistry were determined by MS and NMR analysis.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of anti-emetic constituents of Alpinia katsumadai Hayata was performed. Nine compounds including one novel compound, (3R,5S)-trans-3,5-dihydroxy-1,7-diphenyl-1-heptene (9) were isolated from it. Among these compounds, four diarylheptanoids, one sesquiterpenoid and one flavonoid showed anti-emetic activity on copper sulfate induced-emesis in young chicks.

Twelve phenolic components were isolated from the aqueous acetone extract of the leaf of Cornus controversa H. (Cornaceae). On the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence, the structures of these components were established as gallic acid, $1-O-galloyl-{\beta}-{_D}-glucose$, $1,6-di-O-galloyl-{\beta}-{_D}-glucose$, $1,2,3-tri-O-galloyl-{\beta}-{_D}-glucose$, $1,2,6-tri-O-galloyl-{\beta}-{_D}-glucose$, 3,4,6-tri-O-galloyl ${_D}-glucose$, eugeniin, gemine D, quercetin, quercitrin, hyperoside and rutin.

A chemical examination of the aqueous acetone extract of the leaves of Securinega suffruticosa has led to the isolation of nine phenolic compounds. On the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidences, the structures of these compounds were established to be gallic acid(1), corilagin(2), helioscopinin B(3), geraniin(4), bergenin (5), norbergenin(6), 11-O-galloyl norbergenin(7), gallocatechin(8) and rutin(9).

From the leaves of Brassica juncea, a new rare kaempferol 7-Ο-triglucoside isolated and characterized as kaempferol 7-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(1longrightarrow3)-[$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(1longrightarrow6)]-glucopyranoside (1) based on the spectroscopic evidences. This compound was found to be a scavenger of 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical.

The acetone extract of the roots of Rhodiola sachalinensis has furnished six phenolic compounds which exhibited significant scavenging effects against DPPH free radical. The structures of these compounds were identified and determined as gallic acid (1), (-)-epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate (2), kaempferol (3), kaempferol 7-O-$\alpha$ -L-rham nopyranoside (4), herbacetin 7-O-$\alpha$ -L-rhamnopyranoside, (5) and rhodiolinin (6) by physico-chemical and spectral evidences.

Bioassay guided fractionation and isolation of the $CH_2Cl_2$ extract from the apical bud of Gardenia sootepensis (Rubiaceae) led to the isolation of five known flavonoids (1-5). The structures of the compounds were determined by 1D and 2D NMR, and MS experiments, as well as by comparison of their data with published values. Compounds 1-5 were isolated for the first time from this plant source. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their cancer chemopreventive potential based on their ability to inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production. Among the isolates, compound 4 exhibited considerable NO inhibitory activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of $13.8{\mu}M$.

Baicalein and baicalin are flavonoid compounds isolated from medicinal herb Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Labiatae) and have been known to possess antiviral activities. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of baicalein and baicalin on the three distinctive enzymatic activities of the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) integrase-endonucleolytic, integration, and disintegration activities. Both compounds inhibited the three enzymatic activities in a dose-dependent manner. The 50％ inhibitory concentrations of baicalein and baicalin for endonucleolytic activities of HIV-1 integrase were 4.4$\pm$3.3 and 25.9$\pm$4.0$\mu$M, respectively. In general, baicalein exhibited nearly 6- to 10-fold stronger inhibition than baicalin for the three enzymatic activities. These data demonstrate that baicalein or baicalin can be used as a leading compound to develop anti-AIDS chemotherapeutic agents targeting to the HIV-1 integrase.

To compare the cooking methods (boling, steaming) for broccoli, the extracts from water or 80% ethanol were used to determine total polyphenols, total flavonoids, and antioxidant activities. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of both fresh and boiled or steamed broccoli were found to be higher in the 80% ethanol extract compared to the water extract. Nine glucosinolates were identified in broccoli using high-performance liquid chromatography. The glucosinolate content was found to be higher in steamed broccoli compared to fresh broccoli; however, in boiled broccoli, the glucosinolate content decreased by 5.74-18.64% compared with fresh broccoli. It was confirmed that antioxidant activity decreased through heat treatment such as boiling or steaming compared to unheated broccoli. In particular, the decrease in antioxidant activity was higher in boiled broccoli than in steamed broccoli. The results suggested that it would be preferable to use raw or steamed broccoli rather than boiling it in water to minimize the loss of bioactive substances when consuming broccoli.

One hundred Individuals that were collected from plains and mountains all around South Korea were used for this experiment. The inhibition abilities of lipid peroxidation by Artemisia spp. collections were compared with BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene). The results could be confirmed the excellency fur control of lipid peroxide level such as BHT 200 ppm in all mugwort collections. Antioxidant activity (AEAC), electron donating ability (EDA), total phenolic compound, and flavonoids of 100 Artemisia spp. collections were analyzed. Total phenolic compound contents of Artemisia spp. collections were ranged from 156 to 1,767 rng/100 g, and mugwort collections with more than 900 mg/100 g of total phenolic compound content were 20 individuals. Electron donating abilities were ranged from 13.4 to 95.0%, and mugwort collections over 90% of electron donating ability were 23 individuals. Antioxidant activity of ethanol extracts that used ABTS and DPPH radical were measured and mugwort collections with high total phenolic compound contents had high radical exclusion ability as well. Artemisia spp. collections, AC-60, AC-67, AC-77, that showed the high levels of antioxidant activities and had good growth characters and productivity, were selected for mass production.
