To confirm the effects of binlang(Areca catechu L.) and tansen(Salvia miltriorrhiza bung) on the mutagenicity induced by hydrogen peroxide, SOS Chromotest with Escherichia coli PQ37 and Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA104 were perlormed. Methanol-soluble parts of their water extracts showed high inhibitory effect against the mutagenicity of hydrogen peroxide in two bacterial mutation assays. Step-wise fractionation of methanol-soluble part from tansen was done using ethyl acetate, butanol and water. Among these fraction was further partitioned by Sephadex LH-20 column chromtography, and 6 subfractions were obtained. The fraction III showed the strongest inhibitory effects against the mutagenic activities induced by hydrogen peroxide. The inhibition rates of fraction III at concentration of 500$\mu\textrm{g}$/assay were 28%, 30% and 15% against 4-NQO, MNNG and B(a)P, respectively. But the mutagenic potency of AFB1 was increased.

Free-, soluble- and insoluble phenolic acids were extracted from defatted Galla Rhois. The extracts were then dissolved in equal amounts of an soybean oil, and POV (peroxide value) of the resulting substrates, portion of the soybean oil (control) and 0.02% BHT were measured by AOM (active oxygen method) test at 97.8$^{\circ}C$ for 40 hours through Rancimat method. Induction period of control, BHT, free phenolic acids, soluble phenolic acids and insoluble phenolic acids by the Rancimat method were 4.8, 10.5, 23.9 and 30.5hr. The phenolic acids separated and tentati-vely identified by gas chromatography were catechol, gallic acid, vanillin, protocatechuic acid, syri-ngic acid, ferulic acid.

These experiments were performed to investigate the safety of the three medicinal herbs- Curcuma longa Linne, Paeonia japonica Miyabe, Scutellaria baikalensis George-irradiated with gamma rays in respect of genotoxicity. The methanol-soluble and water-soluble fractions of the methanol-water extracts of the 10 kGy gamma-irradiated herbs were examined in two short-term in vitro tests : (1) Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay (Ames test) in strain TA 98, TA 100 and TA 012 (2) Micronucleus test in cultured Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. No mutagenicity was detected in the assays with or without metabolic activation. From these results, the safety of the herbs irradiated with gamma rays at practical doses could be revealed in further tests of genotoxicity in vivo, chronic and reproductive toxiceity.

The present study was conducted to elucidate the functional property of tea extract obtained from tea extracts, semi-fermented tea(oolong tea) and fermented tea(black tea). Tea extracts exhibited remarkable nitrite-scavenging actions, and the action increased with the increased of the amount of tea extracts. The nitrite-scavenging actionof tea extracts showed pH dependent, highest at pH 1.2 and lowest at pH6.0. The nitrite-scavenging rate in tea extracts/amine/nitrite systems proved to be faster than that in amine/nitrite systems. To screen the nitrite-scavenging factors, tea extracts were fractionated into water-soluble, methanol-soluble, methanol-precipitate and crude catechin fraction. Among these fractions of tea extracts, the crude catechin fraction possessed greater nitrite-scavenging action than the other fractions. The nitrite-scavenging action of tea extracts increased with the contents of total phenols and an absorbance at 280nm, nitrite-scavenging factors were supposed to be and catechins in tea polyphenol compounds.

The present paper describes the serum cholesterol level lowering effect of the underground parts of Rosa rugosa(Rosaceae) which have been used in a folkloric medicine for treating diabetics. The methanol extract was shown to lower the serum lipid level against the normal and 1% cholesterol and 0.5% cholic acid diet feeding to rats, respectively. When various fractions prepared from the above methanol extract was administered, the ethyl acetate-soluble fractions lowered the serum cholesterol level most remarkably. And when (+)-catechin from the ethyl acetate-soluble fractions was only administered to them, the serum cholesterol level was significantly lowered to 260$\pm$9.3mg/dl, the decrease of 17% for the control group. Therefore, it is suggested that (+)-catechin is one of the active principles of this plant.

An experimental study on the removal of VOCs gas using a biomembrane reactor were carried out at various inlet gas concentration, specific loading rate, retention time and gas flow rate of volume. The variations of efficiency and various parameters, which are relevant to gas removal, with mixing of soluble gas and without have been discussed. More than 95% of the toluene and methanol present in the feed was successfully removed in each study. The elimination of methanol with mixture of soluble compound of about 300 mg/h corresponds to a portion of 21% if there is a feed stream of 1400 mg/h. On the contrary the maximum efficiency of about 72% of toluene was reached. This is to be rated as a treatment of sorption that the limiting factor of the dismantling speed could be represented by this difficult degradable component. Nevertheless the elimination capacities for this reactor for toluene were on a very high level. For substances which show a very high solubility in silicon rubber an advantage of a bio membrane is clearly shown. Therefore a similarly good result is expected for n-hexane, because of its relatively good permeability which was distinguished during permeation experiments.

Mulberry extracts can be incorporated into skin-whitening products. The compound attributed to lighten the skin is arbutin, a form of hydroquinone that inhibits melanin release by suppressing the tyrosinase enzyme. For the cosmetic applications, the physiological effects of mulberry (Morus alba) extracts were investigated. The water soluble fraction of mulberry contains higher amount of protein (16.28~4.47%) in contrast to fat (1.55~1.41%). In addition, the fraction abundantly contains succinic acid (972.4-275.8 mg/g) and phosphoric acid (1,628.4-121.9 mg/g) in different parts of mulberry. The free radical scavenging ability in water soluble fraction was found to display remarkable effects in comparison with methanol and ethyl acetate fraction. The ethyl acetate-soluble of root and leaf showed remarkable tyrosinase inhibition activity by IC 50 (${\mu}g/ml$). The anticancer activity of methanol fraction obtained from mulberry using human cancer cell lines showed growth inhibition effect (270.14 mg/ml in Calu-6 cells, 295.29 mg/ml in HCT-116, and 332.29 mg/ml in MCF-7 cells, respectively). Based on the results, Morus alba extracts include cosmetic ingredients with antioxidizing and whitening properties.

This paper was investigated to elucidate the nitrite-scavenging action as one of biological actions of green tea extracts. Green tea extracts exhibited remarkable nitrite-scavenging action. Among the green tea extracts, steamed green tea showed higher nitrite-scavenging action than roasted green tea. Nitrite-savenging actions of gren tea extracts were hardly influenced until three times extraction with hot water. Furthermore , the nitirte-scavenging action of green tea extracts showed ph dependent , highest at pH 1.2 and lowest at pH 6.0. The nitrite -scavenging rate in sample extracts /amine /nitrite systems exhibited faster than that in amine/nitrite systems. In order to screen the nitirte-scavenging factors, samples extracts were fractionated with methanol. in both samples, methanol-soluble fractions possessed greater nitrite-scavenging action than methanol-insoluble fractions .The nitrite-scavenging action of methanol-soluble fractions increased with proportion to absorbance at 420nm and at 280nm, while that of green tea extracts increased with the contents of total phenols and absorbance at 280nm.

들깨와 들깨 증자를 $25{\sim}28^{\circ}C$ 에서 $2{\sim}3$일간 발아시켜 얻은 발아들깨로부터 n-hexane으로 들기름을 추출한 후 이들 2종류의 틀기름에 함유되어 있는 산화방지 성분을분리하고, 발아에 외한 산화방지 성분의 함량 변화가 틀기름의 산화안정성에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 들기름을 acetone 및 methanol에 용해시켜 동결처리한 다음 분리된 불용성 획분의 산화안정성을 측정한 결과 들기름에 존재하는 산화방지성 물질은 methanol에 용해성이 강한 성분임을 확인하였다. 들기름에서 분리된 methanol 가용성 획분을 silica gel column chmmato-graphy로 분획하여 산화방지 활성을 검정한 결과 n-hexane : ethyl acetate의 비가 7 : 3인 획분에서 가장 높은 산화방지 활성을 나타내었다. 산화방지 활성이 가장 높았던 획분을 TLC로 분리한 결과 3개의 band가 확인되었다. 이중 $R_f$치 0.71인 band핀가 가장 높은 산화방지 활성을 나타내었으며 이 band에 존재하는 산화방지 성분은 phenol성 화합물로 추청되었다. TLC에 의하여 분리된 산화방저 성분을 다시 HPLC에 의하여 분러한 결과HPLC chromatogram상에서 4가지 활성물질 peak가 분리되었다. 이들 peak중 들깨에서는 P 1, P 2의 함량이 각각 46.5%, 25.6%이었고 P 3의 함량은 22.6%이었으나, 발아들깨에서는 P 1, P 2의 함량이 각각43.8%, 20.6%로 약간 감소한 반면 P 3 함량은 29.8%로 상당량 중가하였다. 이와 같이 HPLC 분석에서 분리된 4가지 peak중 발아에 의해 P 1, P 2의 활성물질 함량은 상대적으로 감소하고 P 3의 활성물질 함량은 증가하는 것으로 보아 이들 물질외 함량 변화에 의해서도 들깨 및 발아들깨로부터 추출한 들기름의 산화안정성이 다르게 나라나는것으로 추청되었다.
