A simple, fast, inexpensive method hal been developed to extract organochlorine pesticide spiked in fish tissues by supercritical carbon dioxide. Following static supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), pesticides are collected by rapidly depressurizing the carbon dioxide effluent through a 0.79 mm i.d. metering valve into a capped screw-top tube. Percent recovers of standard organochlorine pesticides mixture (SOPM) increased with the decrease of the extraction temperature at 103 bar. Maximum average percent recovery of SOPM was 98% at $40^{\circ}C/172\;bar$ Average recoveries of SOPM spiked in Pacific cod, flatfish and common squid were 85,74,and 83% respectively at $40^{\circ}C/172\;bar$ Application of supercritical carbon dioxide ectraction offers and attractive alternative to the use of organic solvents for extraction of organochlorine pesticides from fish tissues.

Curcuma longa L. of Zingiberaceae family, has been reported to have radical scavenging activity and antiinflammatory effect. On these facts, biological activity and whitening effect were examined to evaluate a bioactivity of the extracts of Curcumma longa L. by extraction conditions as a possible pharmaceutical material. When compared extraction methods, supercritical extraction was the best showing various biological activities and whitening effect. The highest electron donating ability $(89%\;at\;1,000{\mu}g/ml)$ were detected and SOD-like activity was inhibited up to $95%\;at\;500{\mu}g/ml$ in supercritical extraction. To evaluate the whitening effect, tyrosinase inhibitory activity was conducted 89% of tyrosinase inhibitory effect examined at $1,000\;{\mu}g/ml$. From these results, we suggest that the supercritical extracts from Curcuma longa L. is useful for cosmetic ingredients.

Factors affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of camptothecin(CPT) and 10-hydroxycamptothecin(HCPT) from the dried powder of Cmptotheca acuminata were studied. Only a few amount of CPT and HCPT was extracted with pure supercritical carbon dioxide. Methanol and ethanol were efficient modifiers to extract CPT and HCPT. At $40^{\circ}C$, 250 bar, 1 mL/min flow rate, 41% of CPT and 35% of HCPT were extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide modified with 16% of methanol. The diffusion effect of HCPT on extraction efficiency was studied in this solid-fluid system. Round matrix hot-ball model assumption revealed that the value of D/$r^2$ was 0.0072 $min^{-1}$ which was higher than that of solvent extraction with methanol.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound on the extraction of oil from canola seeds when supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCCO_2$) was used as an extraction solvent. The ultrasound-assisted $SCCO_2$ extraction were carried out while varying such operating parameters as particle size of crushed canola seed, flow rate of $SCCO_2$, aspect ratio of the extraction vessel, and ultrasound power. The extraction rate decreased with increasing particle size of samples, showing a maximun at a $CO_2$ flow rate of 6.2 L/min. Both the extraction rate and extraction yield increased with a decrease in the aspect ratio of the extraction vessel. For the ultrasoundassisted $SCCO_2$ extraction, the extraction yield was slightly increased when the $CO_2$ flow rate was below 6 mL/min with sample A and B.

Solubilities of urea-crystallized tuna oil methyl esters in supercritical carbon dioxide were determined by a flow through extraction reactor. Experimental results obtained under a quasi-equlibrium condition showed that at 150 bar, solubilities of the esters in supercritical $CO_2$ were 0.075, 0.028 and 0.006(w/w) at $40^{\circ}C,\;60^{\circ}C\;and\;80^{\circ}C$, respectively. In the pressure and temperature ranges $(100{\sim}200bar\;and\;40{\sim}80^{\circ}C)$, the solubility increased with the density of $CO_2$. However, selectivity of supercritical carbon dioxide on the extracted compounds was much better at low density than at high density. Supercritical fractionation with a temperature gradient $(50{\sim}75^{\circ}C)$ resulted in concentrates of EPA and DHA in purities of 12% and 85%, respectively.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-oxidant and anti-wrinkle effect of the black carrot(BC) extracted by supercritical dioxide(SC-CO₂). DPPH/ABTS radical scavenging and total polyphenol contents were measured to investigate the anti-oxidant activity of the BC supercritical extract. Collagen production and MMP-1 expression were assessed in normal human dermal fibroblasts(NHDF) for anti-wrinkle activity, The black carrot extract showed the highest total phenolic content(9.037±1.123 mg GAE/g extract) and the best antioxidant properties as shown by DPPH and ABTS assay. The supercritical fluid extracts of black carrot exhibited low toxicity to NHDF cells. In addition, the supercritical fluid extracts showed MMP-1 inhibition and type I pro-collagen synthesis inducing activities in a dose-dependent manner, respectively. Therefore, these results suggest that the black carrot is a potential source of high anti-oxidative, solvent-free and anti-aging material with promising applications in cosmetic, food, and beauty-food industries.

In this study, the anti-inflammatory effect of supercritical carbon dioxide selective extracts, which extract decursin and decursinol angelate, the vital active ingredients of Angelica gigas Nakai, in high yield, was measured compared to that of ethanol extracts. To measure the anti-inflammatory effect, the production of nitric oxide(NO), an inflammatory mediator, and interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-8, inflammatory cytokines, was measured. NO production was measured by Griess assay on Raw 264.7 cells induced inflammatory response by lipopolysaccharide(LPS), and IL-6 and IL-8 production was measured by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay(ELISA) on human keratinocyte cell line(HaCaT) cells induced inflammatory response by tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α. The amount of NO production was suppressed outstandingly by the supercritical carbon dioxide extracts compared to the ethanol extracts. The amount of IL-6 and IL-8 production was increased by the ethanol extracts, whereas statistically significantly inhibited by supercritical carbon dioxide extracts at the concentration of 6.25 ㎍/mL(P<0.01). Through these results, we confirmed that the supercritical carbon dioxide selective extracts of Angelica gigas Nakai could be used as an anti-inflammatory cosmeceutical material to alleviate atopic dermatitis.

The present study investigated the anti-obesity effect of pine cone (PC, Pinus koraiensis) supercritical extract in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice. Male C57BL/6J mice were treated with HFD, HFD+catechin, and HFD+PC [two different doses, 20 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) and 100 mg/kg b.w.] in each AIN93G supplement for 8 weeks. Treatment of HFD mice with both low and high doses of PC significantly reduced body weight gain compared to HFD mice. Liver weight of mice was reduced in both the low and high dose PC-supplemented groups (24.19% and 19.83%, respectively). Total adipose tissue weight of mice was reduced in both the low and high dose PC-supplemented groups (45.54% and 62.66%, respectively). Serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol were reduced in the low and high dose PC-supplemented groups, and ratios of HDL cholesterol to LDL cholesterol increased by 94.55% in the high dose PC-supplemented group. Serum leptin was significantly reduced in the low and high dose PC-supplemented groups (28.14% and 62.72%, respectively). These results were supported by genetic expression of protein and enzymes related to lipid metabolism assessed by real-time PCR. There was significant reduction of lipid regulatory transcription factors such as $PPAR-{\gamma}$, C/EBP, and SREBP and lipid enzymes such as fatty acid synthesis and lipoprotein lipase in the low and high dose PC-supplemented groups. However, there was no statistical difference between low and high dose PC treatments. These results suggest that pine cone supercritical extract supplementation is able to regulate serum lipid profiles by reducing total cholesterol, triglyceride, and LDL cholesterol levels, followed by regulation of expression of lipid metabolic factors, resulting in reduction of weight gain in HFD-induced obese mice.

The extraction of glycyrrhizic acid from licorice using supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO$_2$) was investigated with respect to the effects of extraction parameters such as the kind and amount of modifier, temperature, pressure, and extraction time. The conventional organic solvent extraction was also conducted for a quantitative comparison. The content of glycyrrhizic acid in crude extracts was analyzed by HPLC and the yield of glycyrrhizic acid was computed as a weight percent recovery. The optimal pressure and temperature for SCCO$_2$ extraction were found to be 40 MPa and 80$^{\circ}C$, respectively, when SCCO$_2$ was modified with 70% aqueous ethanol. Under the same pressure and temperature, the highest recovery was attained to be 104.57% in the first 60 min when the concentration of 60%, aqueous ethanol in SCCO$_2$ was 15%.

Ulmus davidiana supercritical fluid residue EtOH extracts(USCFR) and ethyl acetate solvent fraction (USCFREA) of supercritical extraction foil were investigated in order to examine the recycling of supercritical extraction foil in the process of studying Ulmus davidiana branch supercritical extract. Experiments were performed for the determination of total phenol content. The $IC_{50}$ value(ppm) of DPPH radical scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity was $7.42{\pm}0.09$, $7.50{\pm}0.05$, $22.94{\pm}0.09$, $6.43{\pm}0.10$, and USCFREA, respectively, as compared with the positive control (vitamin C) with values $17.80{\pm}0.14$ and $5.34{\pm}0.06$, respectively. The antioxidative activities of USCFR and USCFREA were confirmed to be superior to the positive control group. In anti-allergic activity studies, both USCFR and USCFREA showed concentration-dependentanti-allergic activity, and USCFREA showed strong anti-allergic activity even at very low concentrations. Thetotal phenolic contents (ugEG, ugGA; ppm) of USCFR were $134.17{\pm}0.13$, $132.02{\pm}0.24$ and USCFREA were $154.77{\pm}1.05$ and $153.18{\pm}1.10$, respectively. Based on the above results and strong antioxidant activity, USCFR and USCFREA hold the potential to be considered as basic research materials for the development of therapeutic supplements based medicines or functional cosmetics related to chronic inflammatory skin immunity diseases.
