The volatile flavor components of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench)-green tea were analyzed and identified. To make tea having good flavor and functional property, parched buckwheat (50%) was mixed with green tea (50%). The extraction of volatile flavor compounds of buckwheat-green tea was accomplished by a simultaneous distillation and extraction method using a Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus. The concentrated extract was analyzed and identified by gas chromatography and GC-mass spectrometry. The main volatile flavor components of buckwheat-green tea were compounds that originated from parched buckwheat and the green tea. The former were 15 pyrazines having roasted and nutty aroma and methylbutanals and furfural having sweet-aroma. The latter were nerolidol, linalool, indole, ${\beta}-ionone$ and geraniol etc having flower-like odor in green tea.

Aroma components of Ookjook tea made from Polygonatum involucratum Maxim roots were collected and identified. The extraction of aroma compounds was accomplished by a simultaneous distillation and extraction method using a Likens and Nickerson's extraction apparatus. The concentrated extract was analyzed and identified by GC and GC-MS. The most abundant aroma components of this tea were furanic compounds including 2-furfural, 2-methyl-dihydro-3(2H)-furanone, 2-acetylfuran and 5-methylfurfural. These compounds seem to be originated from the thermal degradation of carbohydrates during the roasting process. Alkylpyrazines and acids including propionic acid increased slightly during the period of manufacturing process of Ookjook tea. Furanic compounds originated from the thermal degradation of carbohydrates and alkypyrazines from aminocarbonyl reaction seemed to be the important contributors to the aroma of the Ookjook tea.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to analyze the trend of pharmacopuncture in Korean patent in order to establish database for patent technology. Methods : Electronic literature searches for Korean patents related to pharmacopuncture were performed in two electronic databases (Korea Intellectual Property Right Information Service and National Digital Science Library) to June 2017. Patents that were not Korean ones, did not use medicinal herb, only described method of manufacture, or had nothing to do with pharmacopuncture were excluded in this study. The status and application date of patents, Medicinal herb, target diseases, International Patent Classification (IPC), model of experiment and extracting methods were analyzed. Results : A total of 379 patents were retrieved. Based on our inclusion/exclusion criteria, 297 patents were excluded. Of 82 included patents, 27 patents did not include experiments using pharmacopuncture, and 9 patents were invented for treating animals such as pig or calf. In IPC analysis, Bee Venom, Panax (ginseng), Angelica, and Paeoniaceae were used frequently. Musculoskeletal diseases were the most targeted diseases followed by nervous diseases. For extracting, hot water extraction, distillation extraction, and solvent extraction using alcohol, ethanol, or methanol for solvent were commonly used. Conclusions : These data are useful for inventing new patent and extending range of pharmacopuncture in clinical use, however, more systematically analyzed patent studies and pharmacopuncture-related studies for new application on various diseases are needed in further studies.

In this study, Camellia sinensis Leaf cultivated in Boseong was extracted by vacuum distillation and hydrothermal extraction methods, and we performed in vitro experiments such as antioxidant, anti-wrinkle, whitening, and antibacterial activity test and HPLC analysis. Wrinkle improvement (elastase inhibition assay) and whitening effect (mushroom tyrosinase inhibition assay) of Boseong vacuum distilled extract have excellent results and IC50 values of vacuum distillation extract was measured at a lower concentration than that of the hydrothermal extract. The antioxidant activity of the Boseong hydrothermal extract was excellently measured in DPPH radical and ABTS+ radical scavenging activity, SOD-like activity, and total polyphenol content. In the antibacterial experiment, the Boseong hydrothermal extract formed a clear zone for the Staphylococcus aureus and Cutibacterium acnes strain. As a result of HPLC analysis, EGCG and caffeine in the hydrothermal extract were 40.29 mg/g, 9.94 mg/g respectively, and caffeine in the vacuum distilled extract was 3.40 mg/g. Therefore, we examined that Boseong Camellia sinensis vacuum distilled extract has excellent anti-wrinkle and whitening effect, and its hydrothermal extract has good antioxidant and antibacterial efficacy.

To understand the effects of drying conditions on changes of volatile compounds in fruits of Schizandra chinensis, we analyzed SDE (steam distillation and extraction) extract and Headspace vapor of fresh and dried samples using GC/MS (Gas chromatograph/Mass spectrometer). Contents of essential oils from samples with different drying conditions were 0.58% in fresh ones, 0.60% in freeze dried ones, and 0.30% in hot-air dried ones. In SDE extract, major volatile compounds in fresh samples were terpinen-4-ol(9.01%), ${\gamma}-terpinene(7.02%),\;{\beta}-myrcene(7.55%)$, unidentified sesquiterpenes(28.48%), showing almost the same composition as that in freeze-dried ones, but those in hot-air dried samples at $60^{\circ}C$ were ${\gamma}-terpinene(5.40%),\;{\alpha}-elemene(8.28%)$, unidentified sesquiterpenes(50.38%), indicating the chemical changes during drying procedure. In Headspace vapor, major compounds in fresh samples were ${\beta}-myrcene(22.05%),\;{\gamma}-terpinene(9.47%),\;{\alpha}-pinene(8.91%)$, sabinene(8.48%), which were different from those in SDE extract. In chemical compositions of volatile compounds in dried samples, ${\beta}-myrcene,\;{\alpha}-terpinene$ decreased in the order of freeze-drying > hot-air drying at $60^{\circ}C$ > hot-air drying at $60^{\circ}C$, and ${\alpha}-ylangene,\;{\alpha}-pinene$, camphene increased in the reverse order of the former. We observed the changes of the contents and compositions of essential oils compounds during drying procedure, especially a decrease in monoterpenes and alcohols and an increase in sesquiterpenes with relatively weak volatility.

The flavor extracts of Mideoduck muscle and its juices were concentrated by simultaneous distillation and extraction (SDE) and solid-phase microextraction (SPME) methods. Each component present in the extracts was identified with GC and GC-MS by the n-paraffin hydrocarbon retention index and standard MS library data system. By SDE, $371.3\;{\mu}g/g$ of hexanal, $80.1\;{\mu}g/g$ of 1-tridecanol, $72.1\;{\mu}g/g$ of (Z)-4,5-dimethylhex-2-en-4-ol with other alcohols, aldehydes and acids were present in the flavor extracts, with the alcohols having the highest composition and being the most important factor in Mideoduck muscle flavor. By SPME, 9 alcohols, 1 acid, 1 aldehyde, 1 hydrocarbon, 1 ester, 1 amine and 2 ketones were detected in the extracts, with alcohol such as 1-nonanol, 1-decanol and 1-tridecanol as the major components. In SPME, the muscle sample, consisting of $31.6\;{\mu}g/g$ of 1-nonanol, $20.3\;{\mu}g/g$ of (E)-2-butenedioic acid dibutylester, and $26.7\;{\mu}g/g$ of heptadecanoic acid made up the 62.1% of total flavor extracts of Mideoduck muscle. The results of the SPME methods were similar to the composition of the raw material flavor of the sample even at a low concentration.
