From our previous result that Panax ginseng head extract had inhibition of gastric damages, the extract was fractionated. Among the hexane, chloroform, butanol and water fractions, butanol fraction Showed the most potent inhibition of HCl.ethanol-induced gastric lesion, aspirin-induced gastric ulcer, acetic acid-induced ulcer and Shay ulcer. Butanol fraction showed significant increase in mucin secretion, and inhibited malondialdehyde (MDA) and $H^{+}/K^{+}ATPase$ activity in the stomach. This results indicate that the effectiveness of the fraction on gastric damages might be related to inhibition of acid secretion, increment of mucin secretion and antioxidant property.

Alkyl amines are widely used in various industries. Nowadays these are also used in CO₂ capture technology because amines react with CO₂ and remove it from the flue gas. To make the amines more compatible towards this technology, physico chemical properties may be altered by mixing with other solvents. In the present report, we measured the refractive properties of pure diisopropylamine (DIPA) (1) + isomeric butanol (2) at 298.15 K to 308.15 K. The 𝚫n values were positive for DIPA + n-butanol or sec-butanol or isobutanol or tert-butanol mixtures. The measured data was correlated with Redlich-Kister equation. The excess molar volume data were predicted from refractive index data using Nakata and Sakurai model. The experimental data were also predicted by various correlations, and the prediction capability of these correlations was reported through standard deviation. Further, the deviation in refractive index (𝚫n) data was interpreted by the consideration of specific molecular interactions between DIPA and isomeric butanol.

Synthesis of butenes through dehydration of 2-butanol was investigated over HY zeolite catalysts. 2-Butanol dehydration reaction was carried out in a fixed bed catalytic reactor. 2-Butanol conversion was increased with increase of $Si/Al_2$ ratio of HY zeolite catalysts, which can be ascribed to increase of acid strength with increase of $Si/Al_2$ ratio. Selectivities to 1-butene, trans-2-butene, and cis-2-butene were not greatly influenced by the change of the $Si/Al_2$ ratio of HY zeolite. As a result, it was advantageous to use a HY zeolite catalyst with 60 $Si/Al_2$ ratio for maximizing the yield of 1-butene in the dehydration of 2-butanol. The optimal reaction temperature for maximizing the yield of 1-butene was $250^{\circ}C$ over HY (60) catalyst.

Influence of hexamethyldisilazane(HMDS) in post processing technique by using n-butanol azeotropic distillation on the luminescence properties of YAG:Ce nanophosphor were studied. The organic solvent(n-butanol) azeotropic distillation which prevent powders from conglobation since lager molecules decrease the surface tension and more complete replace the residual water in the precipitate. HMDS that had larger molecules than that of n-butanol was added in azeotropic distillation. The phosphor synthesized from n-butanol azeotropic distillation exhibited lower agglomerate and better photoluminescence properties than that from HMDS added heterogeneous azeotropic distillation.

Mongolian dandelion (Taraxacum mongolicum H.) extracted with solvents having different polarities were prepared to investigate protection activity of gastric mucosa. Ethanol extracts were successively reextracted with methylene chloride, and n-butanol. Concentrations of total flavonoids and luteolin in n-butanol extracts were 27.75 and 1.14%, respectively, much higher than those of other solvent extracts. Results of anti-microbial acitivity test against Helicobacter pylori and urease inhibition test revealed n-butanol extract exerted higher inhibition (13.16%) than other solvent extracts. Based on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, n-butanol extract showed the highest efficiency of free radical-scavenger activity among the extracts ($SC_{50}\;47{\mu}g/mL$). Erythrocytic photohemolysis tests, for the protection of cell membrane showed that half-life of human erythrocytes was increased by the addition of n-butanol extract $({\tau}_{50}=172min;C=5.0{\mu}g/mL)$. These results indicate n-butanol extract of Mongolian dandelion may be useful as a adjuvant for gastric diseases.

Panax Ginseng C. A. Meyer which has been known for more than 2000 years, occupies a particular place in folk medicine as so called tonic remedy. The brief pharmacological action of Ginseng complied from the numerous reports can be summarized as adaptogenic effect to be increased nonspecific resistance. Among the various components of Ginseng, the effective components has been known Ginseng butanol fraction as so called Ginseng saponin. In order to study on the effect of the Ginseng butanol fraction which influences spontaneous activity by CNS drugs in mice. Experiment of response was measured the change of spontaneous activity by CNS drugs in which mice were treated Ginseng butanol fraction. A method of measuring spontaneous activity in mice used by counting the number of times which were interrupted a beam of light. Results of experiment can be summarized as follows: 1. In case of administrating Ginseng butanol fraction for 1 day, stimulating effect of Ginseng was observed in spontaneous activity by caffeine in comparison with the control. at the first, but after 45 minutes no significant change was observed. 2. In case of administrating Ginseng butanol, fraction for 5days, decreasing tendency was observed in spontaneous activity by caffeine. 3. In case of administrating Ginseng butanol fraction for 10days, marked decrease was observed in spontaneous activity by caffeine in comparison with the control. From the experiment on the increased dose of caffeine, nonsignificant change was observed in comparison with caffeine and sodium benzoate 25mg/kg group. 4. A state of increased resistance was lasted until 5 days, and after 10 days it was disappeared. 5. Otherwise, nonsignificant change was observed for chlorpromazin HCl in comparison with the control. 6. From this result, 10 days administrating of ginseng butanol fraction appeared to have increased resistance in mice against caffeine.

Oleyl alcohol, butyl butyrate, and two different ionic liquids were evaluated for the extraction of butanol from culture broth without toxic effect to cells. The tested solvents showed more than 50% extraction efficiency, and oleyl alcohol was chosen as the best extractant for butanol among the used extractants with a partition coefficient of 2.89. When oleyl alcohol was used as an extractant, more than 80% of butanol was extracted in the wide range of butanol concentrations (1-20 g/L) and pH values (pH 4-5.5). In extractive fermentation using oleyl alcohol only, there was 11% more butanol production and glucose consumption when compared to that without extractive fermentation, implicating a reduced inhibitory effect of butanol due to butanol removal to the oleyl alcohol phase. In addition, oleyl alcohol did not inhibit cell growth, while a mixture of oleyl alcohol and butyl butyrate with the volume ratio of 9:1~7:3 inhibited either butanol production or cell growth significantly due to the toxicity of butyl butyrate to cells. In conclusion, oleyl alcohol can be used as an efficient and non-toxic solvent for extractive fermentation for butanol production.

This study was carried out to develop ferns as the natural antioxidant materials by graduating and extracting fronds of $Dryopteris$ $crassirhizoma$, $Dryopteris$ $nipponensis$, and $Polystichum$ $lepidocaulon$, which belong to Dryopteridaceae, using solvent, and analyzing the antioxidant effect of each fraction. The n-butanol fraction of $D.$ $crassirhizoma$ (550.0 $mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$), the ethyl acetate fraction of $D.$ $nipponensis$ (374.8 $mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$), and the n-butanol fraction of $P.$ $lepidocaulon$ (781.8 $mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$) showed relatively higher total contents of polyphenol. The chloroform fraction of $D.$ $crassirhizoma$ (72.9 $mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$), and the n-hexane fraction of $D.$ $nipponensis$ (72.9 $mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$) and $P.$ $lepidocaulon$ (154.5 $mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$) contained relatively higher total contents of flavonoids. DPPH radical scavenging activity was most excellent in the n-butanol fraction of $D.$ $crassirhizoma$ ($RC_{50}=0.02mg{\cdot}mL^{-1}$) and $P.$ $lepidocaulon$ ($RC_{50}=0.04mg{\cdot}mL^{-1}$), and the water fractions of $D.$ $nipponensis$ ($RC_{50}=0.01mg{\cdot}mL^{-1}$). ABTS radical scavenging activity was potent in the n-hexane and n-butanol fractions of $D.$ $crassirhizoma$ (each $RC_{50}=0.02mg{\cdot}mL^{-1}$), the ethyl acetate fraction of $D.$ $nipponensis$ ($RC_{50}=0.03mg{\cdot}mL^{-1}$), and the n-butanol fraction of $P.$ $lepidocaulon$ ($RC_{50}=0.06mg{\cdot}mL^{-1}$). There was the large amount of total polyphenol content in the n-butanol fraction of $D.$ $crassirhizoma$ and $P.$ $lepidocaulon$, and their radical scavenging activities were potent. Therefore, it was thought that biologically active substances of each fraction layer are required to be analyzed and used.
