For the investigation of medicinal resources the studies were carried out to evaluated the pharmaco-constituents in the Leaves of Parthenocissus tricuspidata(Vitaceae), of which leaves have been used in Korea as folk remedies for the treatments of arthritis, jaundice, toothache, neuralgia, and etc. From 1-butanol fraction of the MeOH extract, Compound I ($C_{21}H_{18}O_{13}$, Quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucuronopyranoside), Compound II ($C_{21}H_{20}O_{12}$, Quercetin-3-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside) and Compound III ($C_{25}H_{28}O_{12}$, Quercetin-3-O-(6"-n-butyl)-$\beta$-D-glucuronopyranoside) were isolated by column chromatographic separation using Sephadex LH-20 and ODS gel. Their structures were elucidated through instrumental analyses, such as $^{1}H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR, IR, UV, El-Mass, FAB-Mass and GC. Especially compound III was Flavonol glycoside and named parthenosin.

Astragali Radix, known as Huangqi, is the most important tonic in the traditional oriental medicine. It reinforces 'qi' (vital energy), strengthens the superficial resistance and promotes the discharge of pus and the growth of new tissue. It has long been used as an anti-perspirant, anti-diuretic or a tonic. Eleven compounds were isolated from the hexane and EtOAc fractions from the roots of Astragalus membranaceus (Leguminosae) and their structures were identified as four triterpenoids [lupenone (1), friedelin (2), lupeol (3), soyasapogenol E (9)] and seven sterols [${\beta}-sitosterol$ (4), stigmastane-3,6-dione (5), $7{\alpha}-hydroxysitosterol$ (6), $5{\alpha},6{\beta}-dihydroxysitosterol$ (7), $7-oxo-{\beta}-sitosterol$ (8), ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside 6'-O-palmitate (10), ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside (11)]. The chemical structures of these compounds were identified on the basis of spectroscopic methods and comparison with literature values. Among these compounds, lupenone (1), friedelin (2), lupeol (3), stigmastane-3,6-dione (5), $7{\alpha}-hydroxysitosterol$ (6), $5{\alpha},6{\beta}-dihydroxysitosterol$ (7), $7-oxo-{\beta}-sitosterol$ (8), soyasapogenol E (9), and ${\beta}-sitosterol$ glucoside 6'-O-palmitate (10) were isolated from this plant for the first time.

The characteristics of crude enzyme produced from Trichoderma viride($O_2-1$) which isolated from half spoiled Locust acacia wood (Robinia Pseudacacia Linne) were examined in this paper. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) As a results of enzymatic action on several cellulose substrate it was found that there were some sorts of cellulase in crude enzyme. 2) The activity of C.M.C. ase and ${\beta}-glucosidase$ were decreased in accordance with increasing concentration of substrate, and filter paper saccharifying enzyme relatively increased in accordance with increasing concentration of substrate and enzyme in couse of time. 3) The optimal pH of each enzyme was 5.0 and the range of stability on pH generally from 3 to 6. 4) In disintegrating activity on filter paper, in decomposing activity on C.M.C. and $p-nitrophenyl-{\beta}-D-glucoside$, and in saccharifying activity on filter paper, the optimal temperatures were $50^{\circ}C.,\;60^{\circ}C,\;and\;65^{\circ}C$. 5) The order of stability on temperature was as follow; saccharifying activity on filter paper decomposing activity on C.M.C. disintegrating activity on filter paper>decomposing activity on $p-nitrophenyl-{\beta}-D-glucoside$. 6) The activity of the enzymes was inhibited with mercuric and silver ion, and activated with potassium.

The aerial parts of Spathiphyllum cannifolium were extracted with 80% aqueous MeOH and the concentrated extract was partitioned with EtOAc, n-BuOH and $H_2O$, successively. From the EtOAc fraction, three compounds were isolated through the repeated silica gel, ODS, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographies. From the results of physico-chemical data including NMR, MS and IR, the chemical structures of the compounds were determined as stigmasterol (1), $(2S)1-O-linolenoyl-2-0-myristoyl-3-0-{\beta}-D-galactopyranosyl-sn-glycerol$ (2) and stigmasterol glucoside (3). They were the first to be isolated from Spathiphyllum cannifolium.

The ethyl acetate extract of the leaves of Ixeris sonchifolia afforded two new and two known sesquiterpene lactone glucosides of the guaiane-type, together with a known alkenol glucoside. The known compounds were identified as ixerin Z (1), ixerin Z-6'-p-hydroxyphenylace-tate (2), and (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (3), respectively. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated as 11, 13a-dihydroixerin Z [4, 3-hydroxy-2-oxo-guaia-1 (10), $3-dien-5{\alpha},6{\beta},7{\alpha},11{\beta}H-12,6-olide-3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside],{\;}and{\;}3,10{\$beta}-dihydroxy-2-oxo-guaia-3,11(13)-dien-1{\alpha},5{\alpha},6{\alpha},7aH-12,6-olide-10-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (5), respectively.

The seed coat of the black soybean contains 3 main anthocyanins such as delphinidin-3-O-$\beta$-glucoside, cyanidin-3-O-$\beta$-glucoside, and petunidin-3-O-$\beta$-glucoside. As a part of our effort on discovering and breeding new black soybean cultivars which possesses specific anthocyanin component rich, we determined the anthocyanin profiles of the 2 cultivars recently developed soybean cv. Gaechuck #1 and cv. Gyeongsang #1, using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and compared their content and identity with those of previously known 10 cultivar controls. The Cosmosil-$5C_{18}$-AR-II column were selected for the analysis because of the best peak separation. The column temperature was set up at $35^{\circ}C$. The mobile phase consisting of water containing 0.5%(v/v) formic acid and methanol gave good separation between the 3 anthocyanin analytes and internal standard (quercetin 3-O-$\beta$-rutinoside) and peaks with suppressed tail. The MS/MS spectra of each individual anthocyanin standard were detected in positive electron spray ionization (ESI) modes. It was disclosed that the anthocyanin contents of the soybean cv. Gaechuck#1 and cv. Gyeongsang#1 are roughly higher than those of the 10 controls.

Lonicerae Flos, the flower of Lonicera japonica Thunb., has been used as a diuretic, stomachic, antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent in Korea. In order to evaluate the quality of Lonicerae Flos, the method of isolation and quantitative determination of luteolin $7-O-{\beta}-D-glucoside$ as a reference standard compound has been developed. Different specimens of Lonicerae Flos were collected from twenty Korean markets and were analyzed with HPLC using the mobile phase of MeOH-4.5% acetic acid solution (16.5:83.5). The average content of luteolin $7-O-{\beta}-D-glucoside$ from Lonicerae Flos in Korean markets was $0.43{\pm}0.34%$.
