Basic optimal extraction condition and stability data were determined for prediction of usefulness of olive leaf as functional food material. Solid contents of olive leaf extracts increased with increasing extraction temperature and ethanol content, and was the highest (38%) under $85^{\circ}C$, 80% ethanol, and 5 hr treatment conditions, Total phenol contents and electron-donating abilities of olive leaf extracts also increased with Increasing ethanol content, and were the highest under $25^{\circ}C$, 80% ethanol, and 1 hr treatment conditions, then slightly decreased during storage at $25,\;55,\;and\;85^{\circ}C$. Olive leaf extract showed high stability under acidic storage condition, while low under alkalic condition.

Barbaloin in the Aloe vera depending on the various extracting conditions was analyzed by HPLC. The contents of the barbaloin extracted by the solvents increased in the order of methanol>ethanol>water extraction. In setting extraction, the contents of barbaloin extracted with methanol and ethanol were increased from four hours at $60^{\circ}C$ and then decreased. The contents of barbaloin extracted with water were different depending on the temperature and time. Increasing the extracting time and temperature, the contents of barbaloin were decreased in water extract. It was estimated that the barbaloin might be stable in organic solvent, but decomposed with hydrolysis in water.

Purification of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene(2,6-DMNA) from the distillate containing a mixture of dimethylnaphthalene(DMNA) isomers of very high concentration was investigated by crystallization-recrystallization combination as a after-treatment for separation and purification of 2,6-DMNA in the light cycle oil(LCO). The separation of individual isomers of DMNA was studied by crystallization with the distillate as a feed. 2,6-DMNA, 2,7-dimethylnaphthalene(2,7-DMNA) and 2,3-dimethylnaphthalene(2,3-DMNA) were concentrated to crystal, and it was fould that separation between a group of 2,6-, 2,7-, 2,3-DMNA isomers and a group of the other DMNA isomers was possible. However, it was not possible to separate 2,6-, 2,7- and 2,3-DMNA from one another. To select the most suitable recrystallization solvent for purification of 2,6-DMNA, several conventional solvents, which have been employed commercially as recrystallization solvents for high purity performance, were tested, through measurement of solubility of 2,6- and 2,7-DMNA. The solvent used were hexane, iso-propyl ether, ethyl acetate and ethanol. From the solubility results for 2,6- and 2,7-DMNA, ethanol seemed to be the most suitable solvent for purification of 2,6-DMNA. Finally, with crystal recovered by crystallization as a feed and ethanol as a solvent, recrystallization experiments were conducted under various conditions. Purification of 2,6-DMNA was easily done with increasing operating temperature and solvent to feed ratio. These results show that the crystallization-recrystallization combination is an effective one for separation of individual isomers of DMNA.

The high-purity purification of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (2,6-DMN, 10.43 wt%) from the concentrate of DMN isomers recovered from light cycle oil (LCO) through distillation-extraction combination was examined by a crystallization operation. To select the most suitable crystallization solvent for purification of 2,6-DMN, several conventional solvents, which have been employed commercially as crystallization solvents for high-purity performance, were tested, through measurement of purity and yield of 2,6-DMN. The solvents used were acetone, cyclohexanone, ethanol, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate, isopropyl ether, methanol, n-hexane, n-heptane, pyridine, THF, toluene, and a mixture of methanol and acetone. The mixture of 60 vol% methanol and 40 vol% acetone (M/A = 1.5) was found to be suitable for purification of 2,6-DMN in the concentrate of DMN isomers based on purity and yield. Increasing the operation temperature and the volume ratio of solvent (M/A = 1.5) to feed (concentrate of DMN) resulted in improving the purity of 2,6-DMN, whereas the yield decreased. The crystal recovered by crystallization run using the concentrate of DMN isomers contained about 76 wt% 2,6-DMN. Furthermore, for recovery of high-purity 2,6-DMN, crystal containing 76 wt% 2,6-DMN was crystallized. As a result, crystal with 99.7 wt% 2,6-DMN was recovered with 40% yield.

The hyperfine splitting constants of phenanthrenequinone anion radical have been determined for the solution of triethylamine with 2-propanol, 2-pentanol or benzene by cwESR and time-resolved ESR methods. The radical anion was produced by photolysis using a pulsed excimer laser. The resulting hyperfine splitting constant A$_{H1}$ and A$_{H2}$ are 1.662, 0.378 in 2-propanol, 1.602, 0.361 in 2-pentanol and 1.518 in benzene respectively. The hyperfine coupling constants decrease with the decreasing of polarity of the mixed solvent. The tendency of the variation depends on the polarity of the solvents, thus, making it in impossible to observe the magnetic equivalent proton in a mixed solvent of nonpolar benzene. Particularly, time-resolved ESR spectrum of triethylamine radical (TEA${\cdot}$) has been observed in 0.15∼0.30 ${\mu}s$ from the solvent of 3 : 1 with 2-pentanol and triethylamine. Thus from the results of solvent effect, we can suggest that the identification of the unstable short-lived spin polarized phenanthrenequinone anion radical(*PQ${\cdot}^-$) proceed through photochemistry.

The MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] assay is commonly used for analyzing the cell viability. In this study, effects of various solvents, different lights, and zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP) on the chemical behavior of MTT formazan were investigated. The color response of MTT formazan in NaOH was highly pronounced; the absorbance of MTT formazan in 0.1 N NaOH at 550 nm was >2-fold higher than that in water, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), methanol, and ethanol. MTT formazan in DMSO and NaOH (>0.1 N) was relatively stable under fluorescent and UV light at 365 nm; its rapid degradation was induced under UV light at 254 nm in all solvents. ZnPP degraded MTT formazan under light in a time- and concentration-dependent manner; MTT formazan in 0.1 N NaOH was the most sensitive to ZnPP, followed by DMSO. These results suggest that NaOH and DMSO might be suitable media for MTT formazan for monitoring photosensitizing properties.

Optimal extraction conditions were established from the difference of quality characteristics according to extraction conditions of Ssangwha extracts(SWE). Extract yields of SWE obtained from the established extraction conditions were as follows. The maximum yield was 48.90% at extraction temperature 90$^{\circ}C$ and alcohol concentration 50%, extraction yield and alcohol concentration of extraction solvent was proportioned. Increase of extraction yields at extraction temperature 80∼90$^{\circ}C$ and more than alcohol concentration 30% had slowdown tendency according to increase of alcohol concentration. At this view point, the optimum extraction conditions were alcohol concentration 30% and more than extraction temperature 80$^{\circ}C$. In this study, optimal extraction conditions of SWE were extraction temperature 90$^{\circ}C$ and alcohol concentration 30%.

Organic solvent tolerant bacterium, designated as strain BCNU 106 is a gram negative, rod-shaped aerobe and grows on benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) as a sole carbon source. According to 16S rDNA analysis and fatty acid analysis, strain BCNU 106 showed highest similarity to Pseudomonas syringae var. savastanoi (Pseudomonas savastanoi). Strain BCNU 106 was able to utilize toluene, ethylbenzene, both o-, m-, p-xylene , m-cresol and o-cresol. The degradation of o-, m-, p-xylene by strain BCNU 106 is particularly important, since o-xylene is a compound of considerable environmental interest, owing to its recalcitrance; and very few microorganism have been reported to utilize both o-, m-, p-xylene as a sole carbon source.

In-situ flushing의 적용에 따른 농도 저감이 생물학적 분해에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여, 초기농도 13mg/kg dry soil과 3mg/kg dry soil인 토양을 생물학적으로 처리한 결과 제거효율은 각각 86% 및 81%였으며, 두 가지 토양 모두 24시간 이후에는 미생물에 의한 작용이 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 토양상에서 용액상으로의 미생물에 의한 작용이 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 토양상에서 용액상으로의 물질전이 속도가 율속 단계로 작용하고 있기 때문이라 생각된다. 토양에 잔류하는 계면활성제가 생물학적 분해에 미치는 영향을 본 결과, 잔류하는 계면활성제에 의해 물질전이 속도가 향상되어 생분해가 지속적으로 일어났으며 초기농도 3mg/kg dry soil인 경우 120시간이 경과한 후 89%의 제거효율을 나타내었다. 계면활성제와 보조용매가 동시에 잔류하는 경우에는 계면활성제에 대한 순응기간이 보다 길어지는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 메탄올과 에탄올의 경우 각각 84%의 제거효율을 나타내었다.
